All Too Late novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402 Cousin

“What else?” Leonard frowned. “Do you wish to host a wedding ceremony before registering for the marriage certificate?”

Kelly was stunned.

“Stop dreaming! There’s not going to be a wedding ceremony. We are only doing this for your mother’s sake in the first place,” he said coldly.

With that, he strode away.

Tears streamed down Kelly’s cheeks. She covered her mouth and wept in silence. Why is this happening? I do not wish for Leonard to harbor so much hatred toward me, but we still ended up like this. What do I do?

Leonard went over to Samuel’s ward to look for Kathleen.

“Kathleen, how is Felicia?” Leonard frowned.

Kathleen had just entered the room.

Samuel poured her a cup of water before staring at Leonard in displeasure. “Why are you in such a hurry? Let her take a sip of water first.”

Leonard flushed.

She received the glass of water and said, “As I mentioned earlier, she has leukemia and requires a bone marrow transplant, similar to the condition Nicolette had in the past.”

Samuel lowered his gaze.

Leonard glanced at him. It seems like Kathleen’s tactless remark is not only directed at me.

“When can we proceed with the operation, then?” Leonard was anxious.

“We’ll have to wait for further updates. The operation can be done any time if a compatible bone marrow is available in the bone marrow bank. However, if there isn’t, then we can only wait,” she explained.

“What should we do if no compatible bone marrow is available? Can Felicia’s body condition allow her to wait?” Leonard asked worryingly.

“You’ve asked the crucial question. Felicia’s condition is terrible. I figure she does not have much time left to wait, three months, tops.” Kathleen looked sideways.

Leonard was astounded.

“If there is no compatible bone marrow in the bone marrow bank, then we’ll need to check if there are any suitable donors among her relatives. I think Kelly must have asked around, but things are not looking hopeful for her,” she elaborated.

“What if there still isn’t any suitable bone marrow available in the end?” Leonard pressed on.

“In that case, we can ask Kelly to give birth to another child and use the umbilical cord’s blood to save Felicia. I can try to slow the disease’s progression and allow Felicia to survive longer,” Kathleen replied.

Leonard fell silent as his mind raced.

If Kelly needs to give birth to another child, does that mean she needs to find that man? What if the bone marrow is still not compatible? If that happens…

A distressed look filled Leonard’s handsome face.

“Kathleen, I’ll be counting on you regarding Felicia’s issue,” Leonard uttered in a hoarse voice.

“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best. Anyway, the Hoover family’s blood flows in me. I’ll visit the bone marrow transplant center to do a compatibility test later,” Kathleen said.

Leonard gazed at her in astonishment. “In that case, I’ll join you.”

She nodded. “All right.”

Kathleen and Leonard went to the bone marrow transplant center together and had their bone marrow samples aspirated.

Kathleen exited that place while holding a test report.

She was about say something when Kelly ran over.

“Dr. Johnson.” Kelly looked at Kathleen and was hesitant to speak.

Then, she turned to gaze at Leonard. “I heard you’re here to take a bone marrow compatibility test?”

“Is there a problem?” he asked indifferently.

“No.” Kelly panicked. “Thank you.”
