Love in Blind (Caden and Grace) novel Chapter 325

The day for Payne to receive bone marrow transplantation was imminent.

He had changed into a hospital gown and Mrs. James was by his side.

“Payne, don’t be nervous. Nothing will happen,” Mrs. James comforted him, but her son remained silent.

Looking at her son’s thin cheeks, she couldn’t help curse Grace again.

“If it weren’t for that kindhearted person whose bone marrow matches yours, Grace would have almost killed you.”

Payne seemed to be annoyed.

“Mom! Stop!”

“What’s the matter with you?

Mom loves you. Why are you yelling at me?”

“Mom, stop scolding Grace like that.”

“Why can’t I scold her? She doesn’t care about her family at all.”

Mrs. James hated her daughter from the bottom of her heart.

It had been proven that she was wrong about Grace’s identity back then. That girl was indeed her daughter.

However, after knowing the truth, Mrs. Jane still treated her son differently from her daughter.

After all, she raised her son from his childhood, so she was closer to him.

As for Grace … At the thought that she took away the entire property of the James Group after returning to S City, Mrs. James couldn’t help loathing her.

The property should belong to Payne.

In addition, she had pleaded Grace several times, but that girl refused to donate her bone marrow to her brother. In Mrs. James’ view, Grace was an extremely cold-blooded person who didn’t care about her family.

However, at this moment, Payne’s mind was a mess.

He had already seen a glimmer of hope, for someone was willing to donate bone marrow to him. He wouldn’t die, nor would he risk losing his life at any moment.

He should have relaxed, but as time passed, he became more restless.

The paramedics had informed him that the anonymous donor was about to start donating bone marrow.

He reached out and pulled the nurse’s sleeves.

“Wait … can … can you tell me the name of the kind person who donated the bone marrow?”

“Sorry, that person is unwilling to reveal his name.” The nurse smiled kindly and continued, “Don’t worry. You will be fine. Just take good care of yourself.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Payne was even more upset. Mrs. James noticed that her son was a little upset. She thought that Payne might be too worried.

“The paramedics have said that you should rest assured.

“Son, don’t think nonsense. Mom will always be there for you.”

As she tried to persuade him, Mrs. James thought of something that made her sad.

“Jafar is really a bastard. His son is going to have the bone marrow transplant surgery, but he did not even show up.

Perhaps he is having a good time with his mistress. I hope he dies miserably...”

Hearing Mrs. James’ curse, Payne became more agitated. He suddenly got up from the bed and was about to leave.

“Son, what are you doing?”

Mrs. Jane chased after him.

Payne walked faster and faster.

“Wait for me.”

Mrs. James took her valuable handbag and chased after him.

However, Payne started to run and he bumped into the nurse he met just now.

“Wait a moment! Take me there!” he roared in a low voice,

“Please take me to the operating room where the surgery will be carried out.”

He looked flustered. The nurse seemed to be frightened. “Take your hands off me first. The donor is unwilling to reveal his name.”

“Please take me there, okay?” Payne’s tone softened and he pleaded.

The nurse was a little swayed, but she still shook her head.

Payne refused to let her go. “Is the donor my sister? Her name is Grace.”

He wasn’t stupid. How could there be such a coincidence? His sister had just come to see him, and then a donor appeared that day, whose bone marrow successfully matched his.

These days, he kept deceiving himself that things were not what he thought. The donor must be someone else.

However, he had noticed that things were too coincidental.

He wanted to survive and pretended not to know anything, but he would recall his sister’s words every night.

He asked his mother to bring over a locked diary. He opened it and looked at the contents.

The diary recorded the childhood of Grace and him that he had long forgotten.

The handwriting was childish. At that time, he didn’t even know all the Chinese characters. He gave phonetic transcriptions of some words, and a few sentences he wrote were even incomprehensible.

In an adult’s view, the contents of this diary were funny and childish.

However, they reminded him of the past.

His daily life was recorded in the diary. Sometimes, he was jealous that Grace got praise from their grandfather again. Sometimes, he would record what books Grace read and what movies she watched … After reading through the whole diary, he suddenly realized that he had recorded every event he had as a child, and Grace was always by his side.

He still remembered that Grace told him when they were young, he once helped save her from gangsters.

He looked at the diary of that day, which read: Today is my happiest day, for I protected my sister. It turned out that protecting my sister would make me so happy. From now on, I will always protect her.

The writing blurred, for his tears had fallen onto the paper. His heart wrenched with pain when he looked at the oath that he would protect Grace and make her happy forever. He regretted throwing away this diary at will after he had discord with Grace.

“My sister only has one kidney. She can’t donate bone marrow to me.”

Payne continued, “Please take me there. I won’t force her to donate bone marrow to me anymore.”

The nurse looked at Payne’s pale and haggard face. This man had been greatly tortured by the illness. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt sympathy for him.

Just as he was about to speak, a cold voice rang out from behind him.

“It’s a good thing that you still remember that Grace is your sister. I am relieved that you still care about her.”

When Payne heard the familiar voice, he was shocked. Then he looked up and murmured, “Caden…”

Wearing a cold look, the man stood three meters away from him. He then asked, “Where is your ward?”

“It’s...” Payne wanted to answer, but he suddenly remembered that Grace was taking the risk to donate bone marrow for him. “Caden, you came at the right time. Grace is about to donate her bone marrow. Hurry up and bring her out!”

Mrs. James was dumbfounded.

At first, she was confused, but then she slowly understood what was going on.

A sense of guilt engulfed her, but when she looked at her son’s haggard face, she reached out and held his hand.

“You’re going to have an operation soon. Son, don’t think nonsense. Follow me back to the ward.”

“No. I want to find Grace.”

“Go to the ward. I have something to tell you,” Caden said in a cold voice.

Seeing that Payne was not leaving, he reminded him, “I won’t allow Grace to take risks.”

Caden’s words seemed to illuminate Payne … That was right. Caden would not let anything bad happen to Grace.

…

In the ward.

Caden found a chair and sat down. Opposite him was Payne sitting by the bed.

“She lied to me and donated bone marrow to you.”

Caden broke the silence.

His words sent Payne into the depths of despair, and his face turned pale. “I’ll go find her! I won’t force her to donate her bone marrow!” As he spoke, he stood up and was about to leave.

“When she was injected with growth factors, I took her back home.”

Hearing this, Payne felt a little relieved.

“Then who is the donor...” Payne was puzzled.

“Your brother.”

Payne was struck dumb.

“I knew your brother faked the inspection report, but since Grace didn’t care about you, I just remained silent.

After all, what I need to do is to attend your ceremony and put a bunch of chrysanthemums in front of your grave.”

Payne wanted to say something, but he stopped on second thought. This man was stone-hearted.

He already knew the truth, but he just stood at the side and watched the farce.

“Then Grace began to contact the bone marrow bank. Ever since she found out about your illness, she has been asking others to look for a suitable donor.

I underestimated her kindness.”

As he spoke, Caden curled his lips in self-mockery.

“Since she couldn’t find a match, she decided to donate her bone marrow.

Since she cares about you so much, I can’t just stand by and watch.

I found your brother and your father’s mistress, so the one lying in that ward is your brother.

The one who will donate bone marrow to you is also him.”

Payne wasn’t stupid. His father barely visited him since he was sick, for he didn’t care about him at all.

As for his so-called younger brother and his mother, they had been demanding to return to the James family.

What was their purpose for returning to the James family?

It was just for money.

“How much did you give them?”

Payne was firmly believed that Ollie’s mother was greedy.

Caden looked up at Payne and sneered.

“An advertising company with a market value of 200 million plus 100 million in cash.”

Mrs. James gasped in astonishment as she heard this. She immediately put on a fierce look.

“How can you give them so much?

Are they worthy of it?”

Hearing this, Caden sneered and looked at Mrs. James.

“Is Grace’s life worth it?”

Mrs. James blushed with embarrassment.

“Payne, please remember that your life was saved by Grace.”

With that, Caden stood up and said, “Remember to lead a better life from now on. Don’t muddle along.”

“As for the James Group,” Caden continued with a sneer.

“It is already a mess. Don’t think that Grace got huge profits. The James Group is just a hot potato.”

At the mention of the James Group, Mrs. James could no longer remain calm. “That’s nonsense! That group has huge assets. How could it be a hot potato?

But since the James Group has been given to Grace, we won’t fight for it anymore. You’re afraid that we’ll take over the group again, aren’t you?”

Looking at Mrs. James’ agitated expression, Caden just sneered.

“Can the James Group compare with the Shaw Group?”

Mrs. James was lost for words.

“If Grace wants the Shaw Group, I am willing to give it to her without any hesitation.” Caden was implying that the James Group was nothing compared with his company.

Mrs. James was shocked and she doubted his words … With such a large asset like the Shaw Group, Caden wouldn’t be willing to hand it over to others.

“You’re just exaggerating. I can’t believe you can do that,” she said contemptuously.

Caden smiled and didn’t argue with her.

However, he stared at Payne’s face.

“Have you ever cared about the James Group?

You just ask the company for money when you are penniless.

You have been used to leading an easy life with everything provided, right?”

Payne’s face flushed because of his mockery.
