They Celebrated Her Rescue, No One Noticed I Was Missing novel Chapter 37

Chapter 9

“I’m fine,” Vivian said softly, shaking her head.

“That’s good.”

Charles visibly relaxed, though he still hadn’t let go of her hand.

“Evan’s acute leukemia means he needs a hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Right now, the only match… is

you.”

He spoke gently.

“Vivian, go pack your things. Get ready for the marrow extraction.”

Her blood ran cold.

So-

Charles had risked his life to save her.

All those urgent words- “You can’t get hurt.”

It was all been… for her bone marrow?

A bitter smile pulled at her lips.

“You want me… to donate my bone marrow to your son? Did you ever even ask what I wanted?”

“What’s there to ask?”

Diana tossed her curled hair and snapped shrilly,

“As long as my son needs it, we could skin you alive and it’d still be what you deserve! Filthy bitch. Your disgusting blood doesn’t deserve to flow in my son’s veins. Charles, stop wasting time. Our son doesn’t have

that luxury!”

“Charles Foster!”

Vivian tried to pull away, but his strong fingers gripped her wrist like a vice.

His voice softened again-tender, familiar.

The same tone he once used when whispering I love you in her ear.

“There’s no time for anesthesia. Just bear with It, Vivian. I’ll be right here with you.”

Five bodyguards pinned her to the hospital bed.

She didn’t even have the strength to struggle.

Like a lamb to the slaughter, she felt the long needle pierce through her skin, penetrate the bone cortex, and

bore deep into her marrow cavity.

Her entire body convulsed violently.

She curled inward, drenched in cold sweat, pain crashing over her like thousands of searing needles. Her

consciousness blurred.

But she still heard it.

Outside the ward, Diana’s saccharine voice rang out.

“Charles, do you think… Evan’s going to be okay?”

“Of course,” he replied as he pulled her into his arms.

“He’s our son. I’d trade a hundred lives if it meant keeping him alive.”

He really was a good father.

A good ex-husband.

But never a good husband.

Vivian gently pressed a hand to her chest.

Funny… it didn’t hurt anymore.

The moment the needle was pulled from her spine, the doctors and Diana rushed to prep for Evan’s surgery.

Charles followed right after them-

Not even sparing her a glance.

Vivian slowly pushed herself upright, her frail body trembling.

She stared blankly at the three messages on her phone screen.

A single tear slid down her cheek.

“Hello, your divorce from Mr. Charles Foster has been finalized. Your divorce certificate will be delivered within seven days.”
