The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 274 Like Losing One’s Soul

“Okay, I’ll tell her,” Simon said before leaving the consultation room. When the door closed, a wicked thought suddenly came to Simon’s mind.

If Aiden truly had leukemia, and only he could be a bone marrow match… Would Amanda lean toward him? He knew that harboring such thought was despicable and vile, but if he continued to wait and not do anything, Amanda would inevitably reunite with Elias, and he would lose all hope.

Meanwhile, in the rest area, Amanda smiled as she cradled the peacefully sleeping Aiden in her arms. It was a mother’s smile that came from the depths of her heart. Just then, Simon approached her.

Amanda raised her head when she caught sight of him and asked anxiously, “How did it go? What did the doctor say about the test results? Is it serious?” Although she believed there shouldn’t be any major issues, she couldn’t help but seek out some form of reassurance.

Simon furrowed his brow and kept quiet for a few seconds before finally saying. “There’s nothing major, but…”

Amanda heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that but her heart instantly sank at the word “but. “But what? Tell me! What exactly happened?” Amanda could feel her heart leap to her throat.

condition. Don’t worry. It’s merely a precautionary examination to put our minds at ease, Simon made a show out of the explanation, deliberately making it sound even worse than it was.

Amanda couldn’t find solace even after hearing his words. It was as if her heart plunged into an abyss, and she looked at him with widened eyes. “Leukemia… How can it be so serious?”

“Don’t overthink it; it’s not that serious. My friend mentioned it’s just a routine check-up for our peace of

mind.”
