Chapter 64 You're Pregnant
With Sophia's words, Carol and Nathan could no longer lie.
"So, you're the one who got Sophia pregnant but couldn't admit it? Since Sophia is your wife's sister, no wonder her sister hasn't come," the doctor said. "But saving lives is the priority. You still want to save the child, right? You should persuade Sophia's sister to come."
"No," Nathan refused outright. "Her sister's not well and can't donate blood."
Sophia never expected Emily to donate blood for her. She pleaded with the doctor, "My sister won't come, but her father is in this hospital! You can let him donate blood!"
The doctor nodded. "You should've mentioned it earlier. Is your sister's father a hospital staff member? What's his name? I'll arrange it immediately."
"No, he's not. He's staying in a room upstairs. He can't move right now. You can just go up and draw blood!"
"What?"
Several doctors couldn't believe their ears.
What kind of family was she?
Upstairs rooms usually housed patients with coronary heart disease and high blood pressure. If this patient couldn't move, how severe was his condition? And Sophia wanted them to go up and draw blood directly? Was this something a family member should say?
The doctor questioned, "Is he really your sister's father?"
"Yes. Doctor, please don't waste time. Go up and draw blood. I'm still young and can live many more years, but he's in his fifties. It's more cost-effective to save my life!"
"All lives are equal. There's no question of cost-effectiveness. If saving you harms another person's right to life, what do you think?"
The doctor was shocked and helpless at Sophia's words. He looked at her with a hint of disgust.
But they still had to save her. They couldn't watch a life slip away because of her bad character.
"Quick, call someone to donate blood! We're also contacting other hospitals to urgently get some A-positive blood, but it may take some time. It might not arrive in time. It's fastest for Sophia's family to come!"
Carol felt embarrassed by the surrounding whispers and nudges. She quietly said to Nathan, "Nathan, does Sophia have any other family? Emily doesn't want to come. Her uncle seems to care about Sophia. Maybe he'd be willing to donate blood?"
Nathan sighed. "Mom, you forgot, you just told me to call the police to arrest him. He's probably already been taken away by the police."
"Tsk, you should have waited until after he donated blood before calling the police."
As they hesitated, Emily briskly entered.
Nathan hurriedly approached her. "Emily, why are you here?"
Ignoring him as if she hadn't seen him, Emily walked straight ahead and asked a nearby nurse, "Where's the blood donation room?"
The nurse pointed in a direction. "Over there, at the end of the hallway."
"Okay, thanks."
As Emily took a couple of steps, Nathan grabbed her arm. "Are you going to donate blood for Sophia? Emily, don't do it. Your health isn't good, and it's not worth it to donate for her."
