Agnes' Awakening: From Zero to His Whole World novel Chapter 364

Family meant nothing to people like them.

She put away the consent form, stood up, and prepared to leave.

The middle-aged woman forced a stiff smile.

"Um, Ms. Sinclair, there's something else... About what we spent here today... well, you see..."

Agnes maintained her polite smile.

"Ma'am, everything you spent today will be charged to my account.

"I'll be leaving now. We'll stay in touch. I hope you and sir enjoy your time here."

The woman's face lit up with delight. There was no trace of sorrow for her son's death. She waved eagerly.

"Ah, yes, yes. Take care, Ms. Sinclair."

But after Agnes left the club, she did not go far. She sat quietly in a nearby car.

She contacted Felix and sent over all the donor's details.

Felix acted quickly and made the necessary arrangements right away.

Both surgeries could be scheduled for the next day.

That entire night, Agnes barely slept.

Hope and anxiety tangled inside her, and her thoughts raced until morning.

Just as she was about to head to the hospital, Felix called.

Felix said, "Agnes, I suddenly can't reach the donor's parents this morning.

"Can you try contacting them? Did something happen?"

Agnes instantly felt her heart sink. Her worst fear had come true.

She had always thought that middle-aged couple was greedy, but after receiving two large payments, they should not have backed out at the last moment.

Agnes immediately called them, only to find her number had been blocked.

If they were scammers, it still did not add up, because she had personally verified their background.

Their son had indeed passed away recently, and his corneas were a highly compatible match for Raymond.

What the hell are they doing?

Agnes said to Felix over the phone,

"Dr. Felix, delay Raymond's surgery until tomorrow. It should still be possible. I'll contact you again later today."

Felix asked in confusion, "But the donor family has disappeared. The hospital said they took the body away overnight, and now no one knows where they are. How are you planning to find them?"

Felix paused.

Then, he added, "And even if you find them, it's clear they've changed their minds and don't want to donate anymore.

"How will you convince them?"

Agnes said, "I have my own way. Wait for my call."

"That couple has always been greedy. Everyone knows they take advantage of others. Their children were left-behind too.

"Now that they've got money, it's unbelievable. I greeted them a few days ago.

"But they were acting so arrogant."

"Maybe the ghost marriage was for some rich family's child. Otherwise, how could they earn that much?"

"Disgusting! Doing things like that. Any child born into that family must have terrible fate!"

As Agnes listened to the chatter, she knocked on the iron gate.

After a short while, it opened. A young girl stood there.

She looked at Agnes and the others with curiosity and confusion and asked, "How may I help you?"

Agnes said, "Are your parents home?"

The girl looked Agnes up and down, then turned toward the house and called out.

"Dad, Mom, someone is here for you!"

"Who is it?!" a woman's voice came from inside.

But the moment she stepped out and saw Agnes, she froze in shock. "Sin... Ms. Sinclair..."

Agnes' expression darkened, and her voice turned icy. "Why did you suddenly go back on your word?"

The middle-aged woman's body trembled, and quickly broke a sweat.
