Sloan frowned in response. This is a critical moment for the Fletcher family. I can't afford to let anyone have leverage over us.

Scarlett had already signed the bone marrow donation form, and Sloan knew it was a binding contract in the eyes of the law. If the Fletcher family were to go against the law, others would make fun of the family.

After remaining silent for a while, Sloan uttered flatly, “I'll seek advice from the professionals. Let's see if donating your bone marrow is going to harm your health. If it does, you shouldn't donate. On the other hand, if it doesn't, you ought to endure it.”

Tamara couldn't help but sigh. “This time around, we've truly broken her heart. However, I didn't have a choice. I couldn't just
