She's also Rh-negative!
She could save Leigh!
She has advanced gastric cancer, so the quality of her blood was not as good as Lawrence's. However, cancers would not spread through blood transfusion, and therefore Leigh could still use her blood!
Only that giving away blood would make her weak and sped up the progress of her cancer.
A rare smile emerged on Amelia's face. She wanted nothing but to save Leigh's life, even at the cost of her own life.
Seeing her own blood being drawn from her veins, Amelia felt so satisfied. Leigh would be saved!
Thanks to Amelia's blood, Leigh was saved. He was just one step away from heaven at that moment.
Amelia was at the end of her life. After she gave out 1,000 cc of blood, she passed out.
She woke up three days later. She dazedly felt that somebody was holding her hand and calling her name.
His voice was as gentle as before. His tenderness accelerated her heartbeat. She felt as if they were still a close and sweet couple who hadn't been through any of those twists and turns, and misunderstandings.
Amelia opened her eyes to see the man she had been missing, only to see Lillian standing before her bed, sneering.
His gentleness and tenderness were just her daydreamings.
Amelia and Lillian had a complicated and excruciating history.
Before Lillian was adopted, she was an orphan. Three years ago, she found her real parents -- Dougie and Dorothy Palmer. She immediately became the beloved daughter of the wealthiest family in Harper City, which brought her endless glories.
Four years ago, Lillian kidnapped Amelia's beloved grandma and threatened her with the old woman's life, asking Amelia to leave Lawrence.
"I said it's been killed! There's no hope for your bastard son now! He can go to hell!"
"I don't believe you! I want Lawrence! He would never kill our child!"
Lillian pressed Amelia on the bed. Then the vicious woman smiled and asked, "Do you know why he had it aborted?"
Then she answered before Amelia could speak, "Because I told Lawrence I'm so upset about my miscarriage, so he killed your child to revenge mine!"
Lillian's face twisted out of jealousy when she recalled how pitiful Lawrence looked in his eyes when he heard Amelia lost her child because she had lost too much blood.
Lillian had lied to Lawrence about the night when they were both drunk. She told him they slept with each other and let him believe that she had carried his child. When he heard that, there was no expression change on his face at all. Lillian couldn't believe Lawrence still cared about Amelia so much.
Hatred was rotting her like a demon. She smiled as gently as ever and said, "Another news for you, Amelia. You seem to be living with your advanced stomach cancer very well, but do you know how many days you still have?"
