Perfect CEO

Chapter 39

Lucy gave Gwendolyn a hug. “Let's go. Zayden offered to send us to the hospital.”

They walked toward Zayden's car. Zayden stood beside the car, gazing at Gwendolyn intently.

Lucy asked softly, “Zayden has been pursuing you for years. Don't you have any feelings for him?”

Gwendolyn looked at the man clad in a brown suit. Zayden was good-looking and had a good family background, making him a great candidate for a husband.

However, Gwendolyn had always treated him only as a friend and had never had any extra feelings for him. Besides, she did not want to burden him.

She had met his family as well, and they wanted him to marry a woman of similar social status as them. His family did not like her either. They secretly gave her a cheque, asking her to leave Zayden.

Although she refused to accept the money, she had fulfilled their wish, trying as much as possible to stay away from Zayden.

“None at all. It's impossible for us to be together.”

Hearing Gwendolyn's straightforward answer, Lucy nodded lightly.

She felt that Patrick was an outstanding man. However, since Gwendolyn and Zayden were not meant to be, Lucy thought that perhaps Gwendolyn could just stick with Patrick instead.

When both of them arrived at Zayden's car, they said in unison, “Zayden, sorry to trouble you.”

Zayden smiled faintly as he answered, “It's my pleasure.”

It was already five in the evening by the time Zayden sent them to the hospital.

They went into the ward and saw several doctors busy working by Melanie's bed. As blood gushed out of Melanie's nostrils, the doctor inserted some gauze into her nostrils to stop the bleeding.

Being in pain, Melanie kept resisting and crying through her tears, “Mommy! Mommy!”

The doctors pinned her down. Seeing the situation, Lucy quickly rushed over and consoled, “Melanie, I'm here. Bear with it a little. We need to stop the bleeding.”

Juliette was so terrified that she hugged Gwendolyn's leg and said, “Gwen, Melanie is so pitiful. I hope she gets well quickly.”

She burst into tears as soon as she finished speaking. Gwendolyn felt extremely distressed as well and was biting her knuckles anxiously.

Meanwhile, Camille was wiping her tears beside them.

Although Justin and Julian were watching calmly, their eyes showed that they were beyond heartbroken.

The doctors finally let out a sigh of relief after the bleeding was successfully stopped.

Then, they turned to Lucy and said, “Her illness keeps relapsing. The best solution for her is to undergo the surgery within six months. If we wait any longer than that, then there will be no hope for her to recover anymore.”

The doctor's words implied that Melanie had only half a year left to live. The moment Lucy heard that, her eyes instantly filled with tears.

“Doctor, when will the hospital find a suitable bone marrow donor? We really need one. I'm begging you.”

One of the doctors read through Melanie's medical report and nodded.

“We'll add Melanie to the emergency list, but you'll have to prepare the money. The treatment fee will be five hundred thousand. If you have it now, you can submit the money first so that the gene bank will give priority to finding a bone marrow match for her.”

When Lucy heard that she needed to pay five hundred thousand, her face turned utterly pale. In the past couple of years, she had spent all her money on treating Melanie's illness. Hence, she did not have any savings left.
