Selena looked at her brother, Jasper, with a pleading gaze after Elliot said these words. Her heart was trembling all over.
Jasper, on the other hand, skimmed his head this time. He couldn’t indulge his sister, Selena’s capriciousness again.
“Selena, this is not a small matter. You must tell mum about this.”
Jasper spoke directly to Elliot after completing this sentence.
“Dan is suffering from acute leukemia. This is also why Selena returned. She had asked me to do a bone marrow matching. However, the doctor informed me that my bone marrow matching had not been successful. Mum, you ask dad to come back quickly, and both of you go and do the bone marrow matching. And also, inform our relatives to go to do the bone marrow matching. We’re short of time now. We can’t delay for any longer.”
Selena limped to the ground as Jasper said these words.
Elliot remained sluggish in the same position. She could only regain her voice after a long time.
“Jasper, don’t lie to me. Since Dan returned, I’ve noticed that he is always cheerful, and his body appears healthy. How could he be sick?”
Obviously, Elliot was a bit reluctant to believe in the matter. Jasper had a helpless expression on his face.
“How can I lie to you about something like this? Mum, this can’t be delayed any longer. It’s already a failure when I did the bone marrow matching. You’re Dan’s grandmother. Call dad and ask him to come back now as well. You are all members of his immediate family. I’ll ask my relatives to help to do the bone marrow matching later. We’re now fighting for his life. We can’t afford to waste any more time. Following that, I’ll ask all the management team members of our family company to issue a notice. The total number of our employees, as well as those from other provinces and cities, is about hundreds of thousands. I’ll prepare 5 million yuan as a reward. If anyone completes the matching and it is a success, I promise to reward him with 5 million yuan. So, the chances of success will be higher.”
Elliot realized at this point that her son, Jasper, was not joking at all. She became flustered.
“You’re right, Jasper. You arrange for the people in the company immediately and ask them to issue a notice. Oh yeah, you ask your close friends for help as well. Their company also has a large number of employees. I’ll give a call to your dad immediately. Oh, isn’t Ivan a doctor? He definitely knows experts in this field. You give him a call quickly. There is still a chance to save this disease. We have to find ways quickly. Just as we owe them one and ask for their assistance.”
While Elliot was saying this, she took out her phone in fluster and dialed Bailey’s number. She was flustered when she talked about it over the phone, but she had made it clear.
“Don’t panic. I’ll be back soon.”
Bailey comforted her over the phone. He just went to Japan on a trade mission. At this time, Bailey postponed all of his work schedules and asked his secretary to book for the soonest available flight back. This matter couldn’t be delayed any longer.
Elliot asked Selena after she had finished speaking all of these things.
“How actually is Dan now? What did the doctor say? You brought Dan back but didn’t let Dan stay in the hospital. Will this be bad for him?”
Selena felt sour and guilty in her heart when she saw how concerned her adoptive mother, Elliot, was about this matter.
“Mum, Dan’s situation is indeed very critical. But he is too small, and he can’t undergo too much chemotherapy. There are a lot of germs and viruses in the hospital as well. If he stays in the hospital, he is at great risk of getting infected. So, the doctor also didn’t recommend Dan to stay in the hospital, but let me go to the hospital when he undergoes chemotherapy. He is now receiving chemotherapy once every half month. His condition is not deteriorating at the moment. Still, we have to find a suitable bone marrow match, or else, he may not live more than half a year.”
Selena was a bit sad after she finished these words.
On the one hand, she was worried about her son’s condition. On the other hand, she was afraid that her adoptive mother, Elliot, would discover the truth. Her mind was in a whirl. She was at a loss for what to do next.
However, Jasper and Elliot were right. They had to use all of their resources to find a suitable bone marrow donor for Dan. Her son was only four months old at the time. She might lose her child for the rest of her life if they couldn’t find a suitable donor.
Elliot couldn’t wait to do the bone marrow matching at the hospital. Although she was well aware that Selena was her adopted daughter, bone marrow could not only be donated by someone who was related by blood. It was all down to chance.
“I’ll go to the hospital tomorrow morning for a test to see if I can donate. I’ll also ask those around me to go and help. Jasper, for the matter of the company and your friends, you seek their help quickly.”
Jasper gave the nod. Elliot took out her phone again and called her family and friends. She thought she could ask a few people to the hospital to do the test and bone marrow matching, so she tried her best.
Even Georgia was aware of the situation in the end. She then only knew why Selena had returned.
Selena had just helped her a lot. Georgia then asked the people she knew to do the bone marrow matching at the hospital. In addition, she was the nominal chairman of the SY Group. Jasper also sought assistance from her. Georgia did according to what Jasper had said. She asked the company’s employees to do the matching. And she would provide both the money and the time. As long as someone voluntarily donated, and if the bone marrow could match successfully, she would give him a bonus.
Even if the matching was not successful, as long as someone was willing to go to the hospital for the test, Georgia would conduct a lucky draw among these people so that they would not go to the hospital for nothing.
