“Her mood?” He looked up.
“Yes, she is a healthy adult, but she is regarded as a child. How can she not be angry if she even
needs help when she is eating and walking?” I said.
Sean must know what I meant. He raised his hand and touched my head. “Well, be careful, but I’ll send
a car to pick you up.”
“No problem.”
Although I didn’t think it was necessary, I agreed.
I wanted to reassure him.
Murray called me after the wedding. He decided to accompany Margaret back to the rehabilitation
center of Sacred Heart Hospital for systematic treatment. He would wait for her to recover.
In that case, I had to take care of Lester.
Now that my relationship with Sean was stable, I agreed.
That night I picked up Lester and went back to York No.1.
Sean knew about it and went home early and ate with Lester. They played games together after
supper.
I sat on the sofa and watched them play games together.
I felt very happy.
The next day, Sean accompanied me to take Lester to school, and then he took me to work.
On the way, he hugged me and said discontentedly, “look, if your studio moves to my company, I can
see you several times during the day.”
“No.” I twisted my body on purpose, “you see me at home and at work every day. What if you’re tired of
me?”
“Why?”
He pressed me.
I dodged. “No way.”
Actually, after Sean said that, I wanted to move, but the new office building had been built and had not
been decorated.
Linda and I had been there several times. Every time I could see her excitement.
I was really embarrassed to mention it.
“Really?” He pressed me against the back of the car seat and his eyes were serious.
I bit my lips and wanted to say my hesitation.
“I can follow you like a shadow chasing light and sleepwalking...”
The music was sweet.
Hearing this ring, I remembered that I had changed my cell phone ring.
Sean was stunned.
I made a face and took my phone.
Sean had to get out of the way.
I picked up the phone and took a look at the screen.
Nelson.
When I saw the name, I suddenly remembered Nelson’s request!
I had been in York for weeks now. He must be impatient, so he called me.
Sean saw the number, too, but he didn’t speak.
I didn’t want Sean to know about it. I thought I could solve it myself.
I hesitated and hung up.
“Why don’t you answer the phone?” Sean asked me.
When I hesitated and thought about how to explain it to him, my phone rang again.
Nelson.
Since I didn’t answer the phone just now, I wouldn’t answer it this time.
I made up my mind.
I turned off my cell phone!
Sean stared at me. “What’s the matter? Why does he call you?”
“It’s OK.”
I shook my head.
How could it be okay?
Sean knew I was lying, but he didn’t ask me.
The atmosphere in the car became very quiet.
Neither of us spoke.
It seemed that he was waiting for me to explain, but I didn’t know how.
I didn’t want to tell him that I agreed to do a bone marrow match for Nelson in exchange for his
address. In that case, Sean would be under pressure.
He would blame himself for his previous behavior.
But I couldn’t escape.
When our car arrived at the door of the studio, I saw several people standing there.
I looked over and saw Nelson at the first sight.
My heart was pounding.
I looked back at Sean.
If he didn’t pay attention, I would get out of the car quickly!
But unfortunately, when I saw him, he was looking at the door of the studio outside the car.
Sean’s car was attractive.
Many people were attracted to it.
Nelson turned first. When he saw Sean’s car, he came over without hesitation.
I sat in the car and felt depressed.
Since I found Sean, I seemed to hurt myself a lot.
“Get out of the car.” Sean added, “I’ll be with you.”
I looked at him. His expression was serious. I knew I couldn’t escape, so I had to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Nelson said to me, “Laura, what’s the matter with you? Why don’t you
answer my phone? Don’t think I don’t know. I heard Cindy say that you and Sean have made up. It’s
my credit. You...”
He said a lot. When he looked up and saw Sean, he stopped immediately.
I didn’t speak and got out of the car and helped Sean.
“What’s the matter?” He stood with a cane and asked Nelson.
Nelson knew I didn’t say anything. He immediately pretended to be miserable. He told him he was ill
and wanted me to do a bone marrow match for him.
But he didn’t say Cindy turned him down.
Sean was not stupid and asked, “did Cindy’s match fail?”
“She...” Nelson didn’t know how to answer.
Nelson was an elder, but he called Sean President Jessop. It showed their relationship.
Now Sean asked him. If he lied and Sean knew, he knew the consequences.
Nelson’s already thin face was hesitant.
“What’s the matter?” Sean continued.
Nelson looked at him and hesitated and said, “she hasn’t done it yet.”
“What?” Sean was obviously surprised, “you watched Cindy grow up. As far as I know, she came back
earlier than we did. Why don’t you go to her?”
It had been months since I left.
Nelson had started treatment.
I saw the back of his hand full of pinholes.
It was covered with tape and oozed blood.
His hair was dark and thick. It was obviously a wig.
Nelson was embarrassed. He hesitated for a long time and said, “I raised her for many years, but she
is not grateful! She said she would rather not be my daughter than do a bone marrow match!”
I saw that Nelson had tears in his turbid eyes.
