Capture Her Heart After Marriage

“Alexia.” Chaim knocked on the office door.

Alexia looked up, wearing thick, black-framed glasses, seeing Chaim standing in the doorway. “Mr. Lancaster?”

“Why are you wearing glasses?” Chaim asked in slight disgust.

Alexia stood up and took off her glasses. “I have a bit of astigmatism.”

“How long have you had this problem?”

“I’ve had it for a long time now.” Alexia smiled casually.

There was more about Alexia that Chaim didn’t know, but she remembered everything about him.

“Alright, come with me.” Chaim said in an icy voice, throwing the matter aside.

“Where are we going?” Alexia asked, looking at him in confusion.

“The hospital.”

“For what?”

Chaim sent a brief message to Assistant Chiao asking him to arrange a car while responding. “We’re getting you a checkup to determine whether there will be any side effects after you donate bone marrow.”

Alexia’s heart fell once again. Yes, he had brought this up two months ago, but Alexia was just happy for his attention and care. However, in the end, he still only cared about her bone marrow.

Thinking about all of that, Alexia spoke up. “If there are side effects, are you still going to ask me to donate?”

Chaim paused mid-typing, his thumbs hovering over his phone as he looked at her pale face with no words.

Experience told him not to respond. However, he didn’t want to watch Eve die, either. He didn’t want to see harm come to either of them.
