Chapter 253

Even Bailey sat up at her friend's words.

She sensed that Veronique was trembling and instinctively took the latter's hand. “No matter what the results are, we will face it together. Promise me you won't shut yourself out,” she whispered.

Justin's voice sounded from the other end once more.

“I'm sorry. The results showed that we're not a match.”

Veronique shuddered as the last trace of her hope shattered. Despair flashed across her pale face. Her phone slipped from her limp fingers and fell onto the sheet.

Not a match! How could it be? Even the child's father could not save him. Has God never even considered giving Zephyr a chance?

“Hello, Veronique? Are you still there? Hello?”

Justin's urgent voice repeatedly called for her, but Veronique sat stupefied on the bed and gazed silently into the space before her. Her pitch-black pupils were unfocused.

Bailey sighed wordlessly and grabbed the phone from the sheets. “This is Bailey speaking,” she said. “Vero is currently at my place, but she's not doing too well at the moment. You can tell me if you have something to say to her, and I'll relay the message once she feels better.”

“She's over at your place? Oh, what a relief. Ms. Jefferson, please tell her that I will bring Zephyr's bone profile to the Xuereb family in search of a match, and I will immediately contact her when I find one. Don't let her sink into despair. There's still hope.”
