Chapter 1375
"Can you chat with me?" asked Annie.
William walked over and sat on the stool not far away. With pursed lips, Annie gazed at him before she spoke, "I liked a man before, and he looked like you. I can’t confess to him due to my health, though."
She glanced at William, eyes twinkling with an unnoticeable emotion.
"You may give it a go," said William. "What if the man likes you, too?"
Annie was startled as she looked at him, and it was only after a while that she said, ‘Would he? Would someone like a girl like me? If you're him, would you accept me?"
She sounded hopeless, desolate.
William thought for a few seconds and nodded. "Yes. When you love someone, you fall fortheir soul and personality. No matter how the person turns out to be, I won’t mind and care. You don’t have to be too self- conscious. Live on for good, and dreams will come true one day."
Hearing his words, a flash of mirth zipped through Annie's eyes.
Having heard this from him was enough.
Recalling William's conversation with her grandfather, she thought for a while as if deciding on something crucial before looking up at William. "Mr. Peterson, let's secure a deal, alright? You take care of me for three days, and I’ll get you a second artificial kidney."
William frowned. "It'd take up to a year to make a second artificial kidney. How would you get another?"
Annie, however, looked confident. "I have a way."
A thought then occurred to William as he reminded, "If you're thinking of giving your kidney to me, I don’t want it."
Annie shook her head. "Why would I? I'm not a fool! This is the only thing that'll save me. Why would I give it to you? I know where to get another artificial kidney."
William shook his head. "No way."
This was the only artificial kidney in the world. Why would there be a second one?
