Chapter 10 A Suicide Threat The air in the corridor seemed to freeze.

Mitchel set his lips into a grim line as he glared at Luis.

Just as his eyes began to shoot sparks, a nurse came out of the ward and said, "She's up now." Luis stopped making fun of Mitchel.

He just smiled casually.

"Go and comfort her.

I'll be waiting for you at the bar.” Back in the ward, Lauren was no longer having a fever.

The doctor had earlier revealed that Lauren's body rejected the transplant, which was not good for her health.

Lauren gripped Mitchel's hand tightly and said with tears in her eyes, "My shoulder hurts so bad.

I’m afraid ] don’t have much time left.

Can you marry me as soon as possible?” Mitchel's eyes darkened.

He raised his hand to stroke her hair and said, “Fine.” His affirmative response seemed to give her some sort of assurance.

She leaned into his arms.

Her head pressed against his chest.

Mitchel frowned and attempted to push her away.

Sensing his intention, Lauren leaned even closer as if she wanted to be under his skin.

She moved her body seductively while tracing his belt with her fingers.

She glanced up at him amorously and said, "You know, my illness doesn't stop me from..." Before she could finish speaking, Mitchel grabbed her wandering hand.

He stepped away from her and said coldly, "Sleep tight.

I'll take my leave now.” "I thought you were going to stay with me this night.

How can you leave me all alone?" Lauren said with a pout after withdrawing her hand awkwardly.

"I'm not leaving you all alone.

Jocelyn will be here to take care of you.” "But you are the one I want!" Lauren said, shimmying like a child.

Mitchel pressed the bridge of his nose and then said coldly, "Remember that I'm still married.” It was no news that Lauren had risked her life to save him.

Now that she was ill, it was only fair that he fulfilled her wish no matter how hard.

But a lot of things had changed in the past few years.

He was no longer the Mitchel she used to know.

"Mitchel, you know what my greatest wish is.

If you refuse to marry me, I'm going to kill myself." After saying that, Lauren buried her face in her hands and burst into tears.

Mitchel ran his fingers through his hair.

Exasperated, he promised, "Please don't do that.

Trust me, I'll get everything sorted out very soon." He then walked out of the ward.
