Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 236 At a Loss

For a moment, Fliana’s attention was drawn to the thunder outside. But the doctor’s stem tone snapped her back to reality. She stammered, “Isn’t an artificial heart dangerous?

if Greta didn’t survive the surgery, the cost of the device and the operation would be astronomical. Eliana wondered if Emelie would be willing to take on that burden.
