Bride Behind The Mask (Frederick and Marguerite)

Chapter 491

The intern let out a sigh of relief as she took back the signed waiver. In truth, she had crafted the document herself, and the hospital didn’t actually have any of the policies she had mentioned earlier.

Her actions were driven entirely by fear, having been thoroughly scared by Yuna’s heartless demand to use one son to save the other. What if something went wrong during the blood draw? How could she possibly shoulder that guilt? So she wrote the waiver, as an a just-in-case safeguard.

After Yuna had stormed off, the intern looked down at Hayes, lying on the gurney, her heart heavy with sympathy. Seeing the poor kid scared stiff, she gently squeezed his hand to calm him and said in a soft voice, “Your name’s Hayes, right? Don’t be scared. I’m not gonna take too much blood from you. Just a little bag, once a month, for half a year. It won’t hurt you one bit. You’re brave, aren’t you, Hayes?”

For some reason, Hayes trusted this intern. He nodded timidly and piped up in his childlike voice, “Yeah! I’m brave!”

The blood draw was over quickly, taking no more than five minutes.

Outside the operating room, Yuna seethed with rage when she saw the little bastard coming out so soon. She had planned to be rid of him today! Yet that intern had only drawn such a small amount! It seemed she would have to have another word with the department head later.

Yuna couldn’t help but give a stern instruction, “Hayes, don’t tell anyone about this blood
