Steal my heart by Savannah Kade

Chapter 316: She Was Just Tired

"What... do you mean?" Payne was surprised. Grace turned around. He quickly grabbed her arm tightly and said, "Did you really find a donor?"

He stared at Grace nervously. Grace lowered her eyes when noticed Payne's nervousness, anxiety, and hope.

The hope of survival.

She smiled and answered, "Yes, I did. You won't die."

Pulling his hand away, she seemed to have made up her mind.

When she walked to the door....

She smiled at him. He would never forget that smile.

"Payne, stay strong and enjoy your life."

Then, the door was closed.

Payne didn't even have time to say "thank you”.

The next moment, he called Mrs. James excitedly, "Mom, I'm saved! I won't die!"

He was overjoyed.

Mrs. James couldn't believe it. She kept asking, "Really? Who is so kind?

I must show my thanks to the donor.

I'll call your ruthless sister. She actually refused to save you!

Even a stranger was willing to do it.

She should be guilty!"

Payne blushed. He said with embarrassment, "Mom, don't do that. Grace found the donor for me."

Mrs. James was surprised at first. Then she said, "Whatever. She is not the doctor. She found a donor for you just because she doesn't want to donate her own bone marrow.

Do you think she did this for you?

She did this for herself."

Payne's face turned even redder. "Mom, I'm tired. I must hang up now."

Not long after, his attending doctor came and told him that he could have a bone marrow transplant.

Payne hesitated for a moment, but he didn't ask who the donor was.

The doctor only said, "You're lucky. From today onwards, I'll prescribe antibiotics for you as preoperative preparation. You have to take this. After your body indexes return to normal, I'll arrange an operation for you."
