The Lawyer’s Romance in Law novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277 No Suitable Match 

Although Amanda reckoned she was technically the most heartbroken person by this news, she had no choice but to pull herself together, in order to comfort Edith. Even though she would desperately like to overcome her mental hindrance and call Edith ‘Mom’, she could tell that Edith was indeed upset over Aiden’s poor health. 

Jack and his wife made their way to Aiden’s bedroom to take a look at him as they had utterly lost their appetite and had no desire to finish their dinner. Their eyes filled with tears as they gazed down at his peaceful face. Still, they did their best to suppress their emotions so that they wouldn’t wake him. up. In the meantime, Elias stood beside Aiden’s bed and gazed at his son, gently caressing the child’s cheek. His lips were pursed, and his eyes were closed. He had no choice but to endure the pain of watching his son. suffer, keeping it all to himself. 

Later, Elias sent for Yacob and had the latter see Jack and Edith out of the house when they left. Then, he stood in the moonlight with Amanda as neither of them said a single word, but even so, it still seemed as if they could understand what each other was having in mind. Eventually, Elias made the first move and said, “Maybe we’ll get a second opinion. I’ll arrange another check-up for Aiden in another hospital tomorrow. Perhaps it’s just a misdiagnosis.” 

“Td love to believe that, but our boy is starting to show the symptoms. So, let’s not waste any more time on the check-up and diagnosis. Instead. I would rather spend our time finding a compatible match for Aiden. I don’t want him to wait too long.” Amanda smiled bitterly. 

After that, a long silence ensued between the couple until Elias decided to break the silence a few moments later. “I’ll get a check-up tomorrow and see if I’m a compatible match for Aiden, but you shouldn’t tell him anything just yet, alright?” 

“I know, but I’m not planning to tell him either because I doubt he is going to understand it anyway.” 

I’m going to put everything aside and keep him company. Nothing else is more important than Aiden,” Elias said solemnly. 

“Don’t you want your grandfather’s shares back? I know you’re worried about Aiden, but you shouldn’t forget about your priorities. After all, you’re not only fighting for yourself but also for Aiden.” 

Elias fell silent upon hearing her reminder because he was genuinely too distracted by his son’s dreadful condition to work. 

The following day, the Allegra Family sent everyone possible to do a bone marrow compatibility test while Elias had many of his family relatives do the same thing. Nevertheless, his mother was staying in an asylum. He also hadn’t bothered to request some of his quarrelsome relatives because there was a chance that they would make the situation even messier. 

As the people from the two families were busy doing the test in the hospital, they were kind enough to hope that they could finally come across one suitable match among them to save Aiden. When Jack didn’t see Elias’ mother, he asked, “Why didn’t you tell your Mom to come along? After all, you and your mother are the only people who can boss everyone else in the Winters Family. Furthermore, the doctor also said a direct match from the next of kin would be effective.” 

“I know, but my mom is mentally unsound. Even if she is a suitable donor, is she going to agree and cooperate?” Furthermore, Elias knew just how reluctant Jennifer was to treat Aiden as her grandson. 

Meanwhile, Jack didn’t say a single word as he only paced back and forth, wishing he could just learn about the compatibility test result right away. 

“Mr. Allegra, why don’t you wait for the result at home? Desperation and anxiety won’t change or speed up the result.” Elias turned around and walked away slowly. 

For the next few days, Elias would spend his time accompanying Aiden while Amanda decided to shove all her work aside and stayed by her son’s side as well until his condition was treated. At the same time, Jack. and his wife would also visit Aiden every day. While the adults actively made time out of their busy schedules to accompany Aiden, the smart child quickly sensed something wrong, finding it strange for them to always be by his side. “Mommy, why are you guys playing with me every day? Didn’t you say adults had to work?” Aiden curiously asked while having his breakfast. 

Amanda, who was busy peeling off the eggshells, paused and said. “That’s because you’re just too adorable, and everybody likes you, which is why they want to be around you. Maybe they’re recently on a vacation or something.” 

“Does that mean I’m also taking a break? But the teacher didn’t say anything about that, Mommy. I haven’t been to school for days, and I want to play with my friends.” 

Amanda responded with silence upon hearing that. Unfortunately, she didn’t dare to let Aiden play by himself because she was worried that he would end up getting himself hurt. Thus, exacerbating his already precarious condition. Therefore, all she did was to keep him at home with her, but at the same time, she also knew that was not good for a child’s curious and inquisitive nature to be locked up like this. My boy is going to be hospitalized in a few days. What should I tell him by then? 

“Aiden, if you really want to play, your grandparents and Dad could play with you. Don’t forget about me too.” Amanda did her best to comfort Aiden. 

Aiden knitted his eyebrows in a dissatisfied manner. “No way, Mommy. Didn’t you always say that kids should go to kindergarten? I haven’t been to school for days, and the teacher is going to lecture me about that.” 

“No worries. I told your teacher that you’d be taking the day off.” 

“Why? I want to play with my friends. Grandma and Grandpa have been making me drink water all the time while Dad kept carrying me around everywhere. So, I want to play with my friends. I can’t wait to have fun with them.” Aiden had long grown bored of playing at home. Despite his initial dislike for going to school, he was beginning to miss playing with his friends. 

While Amanda was scratching her head trying to figure out an explanation, Elias arrived home. He unlocked the door with his thumbprint instead of ringing the doorbell and entered the house straight 

away. 

“Aiden, look what I got you-it’s your favorite chocolate cake. The man walked closer to his son with an appetizing cake, which successfully distracted the boy’s attention as he retreated to a corner to enjoy his food. 

“What’s wrong?” She heaved a sigh of relief, feeling grateful that her son didn’t press on with his question.
