As soon as he walked in, Nigel spoke up, "The note is real. We're going there now."

Yvonne looked at him like he was talking nonsense. How could a kidney transplant be that simple?

She had already started accepting the reality of her illness and didn't want to make any more effort to change it.

Ignoring her, Nigel picked her up and carried her out.

"What are you doing? Put me down!" she protested, embarrassed as nurses and patients stared at them. Her face turned red, wishing she could disappear.

Nigel didn't seem to care about the attention and continued carrying her, placing her in the car. Furious, Yvonne demanded, "Do you think this will make me feel grateful or something?"

Nigel started the engine. "You've got it wrong. I just want you to live. There's finally hope now, and I don't want to miss it." He sped up the car, running several red lights as they raced toward the address in the southern part of the city. When they arrived at the location written on the note, they were both taken aback by what they saw. It was a rundown house that looked nothing like a place run by a small business. It was more like an abandoned property.

"Stay behind me," Nigel instructed, putting himself in front of Yvonne as he cautiously approached the door. Just as he raised his hand to knock, the door creaked open.
