Chapter 378

In the living room of a five-star hotel suite, Tamara and Scarlett glared at Raiden with fury etched across their faces.

“What are you talking about, Raiden? Why should I donate my bone marrow to that illegitimate child? You were against that idea previously, so why have you suddenly changed your tune?”

After she said that, something seemed to occur to her, and everything clicked. “It's Bailey, am I right? She persuaded you into getting my bone marrow. Raiden, are you seriously going to sacrifice your sister because of that depraved woman?”

Tamara added, “There's no chance I'll agree to let Lettie donate her bone marrow. You can banish that thought. Also, you need to stay away from that woman. She has Artemis protecting her, and you don't have to concern yourself with that. With the way you hang around her so eagerly, are you trying to announce to the whole world that no other women are interested in the Fletcher family's heir?”

Raiden frowned.

I knew this would happen. Nonetheless, I wanted to give it a shot. Since I've already tried and the outcome isn't satisfactory, I can only resolve this with a high hand.

“All right, then. Seeing that neither of you is agreeable to it, I won't force it. Just pretend I never said anything.”

With that, he rose to his feet and left the suite.

The mother-daughter pair glanced at each other. Scarlett asked, “What should we do next, Mom?”

For a moment, Tamara fell silent. Then, she said reassuringly, “We'll wait for news from Olivia. She'll give us a satisfactory reply.”

After pondering for a while, Scarlett piped up, “Mom, Bailey has influenced Raiden's mind. That's not a good sign. I'm worried he'll insist she's the only one he wants to be with and end up getting hurt. He's your only son. You wouldn't want to see him ruined by that woman's hands.”

“I'll think of a way to make him abandon that notion,” Tamara uttered through clenched teeth.

Meanwhile, Bailey was performing a checkup on Veronique at the medical base.

Veronique grabbed Bailey's wrist and asked desperately, “Bay, do you have any way of making my uterus recover quickly? Zephyr doesn't have much time left. I need to produce another test-tube baby as soon as possible.”

“Even someone who suffered a normal miscarriage would have to recuperate for a month, let alone you who just underwent in vitro fertilization. Three months. There must be no stimulus to the uterus for three months. Otherwise, I swear on my life that I'll remove it,” Bailey responded furiously while shooting her a stern look.

“Three months...” Veronique mumbled. Upon thinking of Zephyr's condition, she could not help but cry as she muttered, “Three months is too long. Zephyr can't wait. Bay, I know you must have a way. I'm begging you. Please help me, okay?”

In the living room of a five-star hotel suite, Tamara and Scarlett glared at Raiden with fury etched across their faces.

Bailey sat on the edge of the bed and held Veronique's wrist. Then, she said slowly and clearly, “Listen carefully. I've already found a way to cure Zephyr, so you can stop thinking about producing a test-tube baby anymore.”

However, Veronique did not believe her. “You're only saying that to make me feel better.”

Gazing at Veronique, Bailey said solemnly, “No, I'm not. I won't let anything happen to Zephyr, and if all else fails, I'll kidnap Scarlett. One vial of anesthetic will be enough to knock her out. After that, I'll take some bone marrow from her body.”

Veronique stared at her wordlessly.
