Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown novel Chapter 105

Brady.

If she remembered correctly, this car alone was worth a staggering ten million dollars.

The Grayson family, truly the most prestigious household in Northspire.

Even an out-of-favor son can drive such a luxury.

"Get in."

Serena nodded slightly and stepped into the car.

Once inside, she discovered it held even more secrets.

The interior was entirely handcrafted, with plush velvet carpeting and custom seats designed specifically for William’s comfort.

"What made you decide to see a lawyer?" William’s deep, resonant voice was calm yet compelling, instantly capturing Serena's attention.

"I ran into some trouble."

"What kind of trouble?" His gaze remained cool, neither too warm nor distant.

Though Serena had no intention of opening up, she found herself speaking as she looked at his face.

"A friend of mine was forced into donating a kidney without knowing."

William leaned back slightly, revealing a sharp jawline. "From what I know, a kidney donation requires matching tests. It's a complex process; your friend couldn't have been unaware."

Serena’s eyes flickered. "Is the matching process really that complicated?"

"Yes," William replied, his long fingers gently tapping his knee. "First, there's a blood test to ensure compatibility, then HLA typing, antibody level checks, lymphocyte toxicity tests... With all these procedures, it would be impossible to hide it from your friend."

Serena clutched the hem of her jacket tightly.

If what William said was true, and matching required so many tests, she couldn’t possibly have been kept in the dark.

Could it be... Cynthia Lynwood was lying?

Had Aaron never run any tests?

But if not, how did Cynthia Lynwood know...

A chilling thought crept into Serena’s mind.

"What’s wrong?" William's concerned voice broke through.
