The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 162

Suddenly, Margaret seemed to have thought of something. Her expression froze as she said, “By the way…”

“Bruce, are you going to donate your bone marrow to her daughter?”

“Yes!” Bruce nodded subconsciously.

“I already know about the child’s health condition.”

“And then?” Bruce asked in confusion.

Margaret breathed a sigh of relief as she said earnestly, “I do not recommend you donate your bone marrow to her!”

Bruce was stunned and speechless. He looked at Margaret with disbelief.

Margaret took a deep breath slowly and said, “Donating bone marrow is harmful to the human body. I am worried that it will cause damage to your body!”

“No, it won’t. Donating bone marrow is not harmful to the human body…”

Margaret stared at Bruce and said in doubt, “Who said so?”

“Those who said that it is not harmful to the human body are lying. They are afraid that no one is willing to donate the bone marrow if they knew about

it.

“Furthermore, I already know about the child’s health condition! Not only that she is suffering from leukemia, but also thalassemia and heart disease!

“There may be various sequelae in the future too. Even if her leukemia is cured, she would still be disabled for life!”

Margaret sighed deeply as she spoke. “She might not be fully recovered even after you donate your bone marrow to her!

“I have already sought advice from the specialist. After the specialist analyze her case, they suggest that it would be better for her to give up on her

treatment!”

Bruce drew his lips together as he frowned and said, “Grandma, how could say so? She is my biological daughter, my flesh and blood! How could I not save her and see her die before me?”

“Bruce, she is the Everett family’s flesh and blood too. How could I bear to see her suffer? I want her to be healthy again too.

“However, from a rational point of view, her treatment is insignificant. She would only suffer more if she lives!

“The specialist has said that even if her leukemia is cured, she might need to perform heart transplant surgery in the future.

“Based on her condition, she might not even be able to live till she is seven. Therefore, even if you donate your bone marrow to her, she might only live

for another two to three years at the most!

“So, do you think it is meaningful for you to do so now?” Margaret’s face turned serious after she finished her words.

She would rather give up a sickly person!

Even though Margaret was not a person who favored boys over girls, she was worried that this sickly person would drag her grandson down!

Lilia was suffering from so many kinds of illnesses. Today, she might need someone to donate bone marrow. However, she might need someone to donate a heart for her in the future!

Joanna’s blood type was not a match with Lilia’s blood type so as the rest of them. Only Bruce’s blood type was a match with Lilia’s blood type.

Margaret was afraid that it would be a neverending story for her grandson in the future.

Although Margaret did not bear to see her great granddaughter suffer, she could not bear to see her grandson suffer even more!

Bruce’s face darkened as he stood up and said, “Grandma, I am going to save my daughter no matter what!

“I have not fulfilled my duty as a father ever since she was born. Therefore, I can’t give up on her today. Even if the surgery is not successful, I will still give my best shot.”
