His Unveiled Passion

Chapter 129

Tessa had been swamped with work for the past few days. She had to attend court on a daily basis, while making time to accompany Lucas for his workplace injury assessment and work capacity evaluation.

The weather report announced that a cold wave was about to hit the city. The temperature would drop drastically tomorrow and would reach a low of 24.8 degrees Fahrenheit.

Tessa had arranged for the Grangers to be transferred to a private ward in a tertiary-level hospital. She also asked Jasmine to buy down jackets, thick quilts, and electric blankets for the siblings.

Jasmine's eyes were red-rimmed when she was done delivering the items to them.

Tessa had been hard at work typing on the computer. She glanced at Jasmine after hearing how choked up she sounded. "Why are you on the verge of tears?"

Jasmine pressed her lips together as her teary eyes shone. "Anne hasn't been doing well lately. The doctor said that if a suitable bone marrow isn't found soon, she won't live through the winter..."

Tessa's fingers froze above the keyboard. Tears welled in her eyes, wetting her lashes. Her voice trembled slightly when she assured Jasmine, "Just wait a little longer. I've already sent people to find a suitable bone marrow. They'll find one... They'll definitely find one."
