Gladys was overjoyed when she received the news. Grasping Gwynn’s hands, she said, “What are the odds?! A kind-hearted donor was willing to donate his corneas to you, Ms. Gwynn. You must’ve done a lot of good in your previous life. This miracle wouldn’t have happened otherwise.”Gwynn’s eyes were wrapped with gauze.Feeling her way around the old servant’s hands, she held it and responded, “I brought some cash with me. Do me a favor and give the donor some of it. I know it’s a little unseemly, but it’s my way of saying thanks. Sometimes, money does buy comfort.”Gladys nodded repeatedly. “Of course! It’ll be done! I’ve found out where the donor is. Let’s pay them a visit when you finally regain your sight, Ms. Gwynn. I’m sure it’ll mean a lot to them too.”At the next moment, a fierce thunderstorm began brewing outside.The next thing they knew, rain began pouring and lightning streaked across the dark sky.The surgery went without a hitch. Alan wrapped the last layer of gauze ar

‘This is how we can be together for an eternity, Maddox.’…Silence hung over the center courtyard. By the time Gladys made her way here, the crowd was muttering amongst themselves. The old servant had a sinking feeling in her stomach. Working her way through the crowd, she finally saw Maddox and his wife in a pool of blood. She couldn’t take such a heartbreaking and grisly sight. Falling to her knees, she stared at the young couple and said in a choked-up voice, “It’s Maddox and his wife! It’s really them.”Holly waved her arms in the air and continued to wail at the top of her lungs. The old servant swooped the baby up gently while tears flowed down her withered cheeks. “I recognize this jade. You’re Maddox’s daughter!”It was so excruciatingly painful that it felt like someone had stabbed her through the heart. Holding the baby in her arms, she said shakily, “Oh, my sweet child. Let’s take a last look at your mom and dad. You won’t be able to see them again after today

Noah was about to say something, but the Gerlandian doctor came over with a stack of X-rays in his hand. “I’d like a word with you, Mr. Noah. It’s about Ms. Gianna’s condition.”So, he responded to Kim, “I’ll call Gwynn in a while.”Then, he hung up. Kim couldn’t help but curse at her director.…Things were looking grim for Gianna. The doctor said it wasn’t plausible to surgically remove her uterus. Simply put, she had no chance of surviving the cancer. The Gerlandian doctor said gloomily, “By my estimation, she only has three more months left to live. Stay by her side while you still can, Mr. Noah!”After the doctor left, Noah stood by the window with a phone in one hand and a cigar in the other. However, the cigar wasn’t lit. Gianna hugged him from behind, sniffing his scent longingly. It was fine if he refused to sleep with her, as long as he kept her company. They looked just like a married couple. She was about to die, but she wasn’t scared at all. That was becau

The pediatrician used his stethoscope to listen to Holly’s heartbeat and breathing.After a brief moment, he tucked it away and said, “She probably caught a cold and has a mild case of pneumonia. It’s not that serious. She’ll be right as rain once I prescribe her some medicine.”The word ‘pneumonia’ unnerved the old servant.She asked gingerly, “Should we hook her up to an IV drip? The other children get it when they have pneumonia.”He smiled. “It’s not that serious.”He was aware of Holly’s tragic background. Reaching out, he brushed his fingers on her cheeks tenderly, and said to Gwynn, “If it’s possible, feed her some breast milk, Ms. Gwynn. That’ll help the baby girl build up her immune system.”Gwynn nodded. “Okay.”Carrying Holly in her arms, she soothed the baby tenderly. Tears filled the doctor’s eyes. He hid it in a cough and said, “I’m going to prescribe her some medicine now.”She asked the old servant to follow the doctor. After weeks of attentive care, Holly sta

Gwynn looked much healthier now, and had regained much of her former figure.She was still quite skinny, but there was flesh where there should be on her body. Even her skin was restored to its former glory. Dressed in a form-fitting dress, she looked slender and curvaceous.Noah stared at her for a long time. It felt as if it had been centuries since he had last seen her. The personnel from the wedding boutique asked again, “We’re going to hang your wedding photo here, Mr. Noah. Does it look fine for you?”Coming back to his senses, he took brisk steps toward Gwynn instinctively. Grabbing her slender wrist, he spoke in a hushed voice because he knew he was in the wrong this time. “We’ll talk outside.”“Why do we have to talk outside?”Shaking his hand off, she swept her eyes across the living room. Noticing the extravagant architectural style, she chuckled softly, “Is it because this is where you hide your mistress? Are you ashamed of it?”Then, her chuckle turned into a s
