Chapter 288 A Bolt From the Blue 

At the same time, Elias, who was on the other side, fell silent as he stared and listened to the beeping. sound coming from the phone. How is it that the hospital manages to so coincidentally find a matching bone marrow for Aiden at such a moment? Are we truly this lucky? 

Elias turned his attention to Yacob, who was standing beside him, and instructed, “I want you to go and look 

up 

the donor’s information. At the same time, ask the hospital to arrange the bone marrow transplant. with the least delay.” 

“Yes, Mr. Winters. Yacob swiftly acquiesced, turned around, and left. 

Even though Elias wasn’t quite convinced that the hospital could find a suitable bone marrow match in such a short time, he also didn’t want to give up such a good opportunity at the same time. 

Amanda accompanied Aiden in the hospital throughout the whole evening. 

When the sky turned dark, Jack and Edith dropped by the hospital to visit Aiden. In truth, they had been wanting to visit Aiden in the hospital. However, they dared not to as they feared that they couldn’t help but shed tears of sadness in front of the little guy. Eventually, they decided to momentarily drop by and check on Aiden while he was asleep that late evening. Just as they expected, Aiden was asleep when they entered the ward. Still, Jack and Edith couldn’t hold back their tears upon seeing the slumbering Aiden. 

“Aiden is still so young. How can he endure such pain?” Edith covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying out loud, for fear of waking Aiden up. Meanwhile, Jack kept sighing from the side, reluctant to let go of Aiden’s tiny hand. 

“Don’t worry. Today, the doctor told me that they had found a new match. Baby can undergo a bone marrow transplant soon. He will recover in no time. An irrepressible smile formed at the corner of Amanda’s mouth as she shared this news with Jack and Edith. 

The couple seemed to have instantly revived when they heard the good news. Jack was stunned for a few seconds before bursting out with laughter of happiness. Is this true? In that case, I have to express my utmost gratitude toward this donor. Money isn’t a problem. The most important thing is that they must proceed with my grandson’s bone marrow transplant procedure.” 

Likewise, Edith wiped away her tears and echoed with a smile. “That’s right. They need to proceed with Aiden’s bone marrow transplant procedure. Aiden is so young. It pains me to see him suffer so terribly. Ask the hospital to quickly arrange the procedure before problems are incurred by a delay.” 

With that, Amanda hummed, “I’ve already discussed with the doctor to arrange the surgical procedure as soon as possible.” 

Jack and Edith didn’t want to disturb Aiden’s rest, so they left the ward shortly after. Nonetheless, the couple regarded their short visit to the hospital as worthwhile after receiving the good news. Finally, they, too, could breathe a sigh of relief now that the hospital had found a suitable bone marrow match for Aiden. 

Elias arrived at the hospital slightly past 11.00PM. He even helped Amanda bring supper, for he knew she certainly didn’t have a good sleep and proper meal from having to look after Aiden. I’ve brought you. supper. Here, have some. Otherwise, who will take care of Aiden if you fall sick?” 

As she watched Elias place the packed supper on the coffee table, she smiled slightly before walking over. “Alright.”

Elias went to Aiden’s hospital bed as he glanced at his sleeping son and caressed his face gently. The indifference in his eyes instantly turned slightly warmer. Indeed, Elias, who treated outsiders apathetically the whole time, only reserved all his love for Amanda and Aiden. 

“According to the doctor, Baby can undergo the bone marrow transplant at the end of this month, and they will have to help him prepare for the surgery these days. They mentioned something about injections, but I have no medical background, so I don’t quite understand these medical terms. Anyway, they will arrange the bone marrow transplant procedure soon.” Amanda couldn’t help beaming with joy whenever she brought up this good news. 

On the contrary, Elias remained silent. After a while, he sat beside Amanda and gradually said, “Don’t get too carried away just yet. Let me look up the donor’s information.” 

Amanda, who was picking up her cutlery, paused for a second. Her smile froze at the corner of her lips as she looked up at Elias and asked, “What do you mean?” 

“Nothing. Perhaps, I’m merely paranoid. But… It will make me feel more at ease if we look up the donor’s background.” 

“You’re probably overthinking things. The hospital found this donor from the Corynthea Marrow Donor Program’s list. There is no way Taylor can tamper with it. Amanda felt that Elias was being a little oversensitive. 

Still, Elias furrowed his brows tightly. “Maybe.” 

After a while, Yacob called. He probably had found out the donor’s information. 

Elias answered the phone with a solemn expression on his face, “Tell me, what have you found?” 

Amanda, who stood aside, involuntarily turned stiff as she listened to the conversation quietly. As the ward was too silent to the point that even the sound of a needle dropping to the ground could be heard, she could hear everything clearly. 

On the other end of the phone, Yacob reported, “Mr. Winters, I have found out that the donor is a woman. around 24 years old and a normal office worker. 

Elias finally breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Yacob’s words. It seems that the hospital has indeed found a suitable bone marrow match for Aiden. 

Next to him, Amanda also slightly eased up her tense nerves after she heard what Yacob reported. Then, she couldn’t help smiling. “Told you! It’s you who overthinks. There are numerous donors in the Corynthea Marrow Donor Program’s list, so there’s bound to have one that matches Aiden’s.” 

“In that case, ask the hospital not to wait any longer and arrange the bone marrow transplant procedure as soon as possible. Similar to Edith, Elias feared that there would be a chance of complications arising from their undue delay. Furthermore, he was afraid that the donor would have a sudden change of mind. After all, such events did occur to some patients before. 

“Okay,” Amanda hummed. 

Thus, the hospital was preparing for the surgical procedure the following week. 

Everyone was looking forward to the day of the surgery. Although Aiden was very uncooperative, he would still obediently take his medicine and injections under Amanda’s coax.

Finally, it was the day before the surgery. Everything was all set, and all that was left was tomorrow’s surgical procedure. Amanda was truly glad that she could finally tell Aiden they could go home soon. 

“Mommy, are we really going home soon? I really want to go home. I don’t like staying here!” 

“Yeah. We can go home soon.” Amanda wished that tomorrow could arrive quickly, and Aiden could get his bone marrow transplant so badly. 

Just then, a nurse came to the ward and said, “Aiden Bailey’s family members? Dr. Smith is asking for you.”
