    Considering Alison’s character, she was never one to discriminate based on wealth or social status,


    making it puzzling why she would intervene in their rtionship.


    When Sophia posed her question, Alison’s cloudy eyes instantly turned icy. Through clenched


    teeth, she replied, “Because that despicable woman he was infatuated with was unworthy of being


    part of the Wilson family.”


    Alison’s thorough investigation into Ada’s background revealed the turmoil and chaos of her life,


    igniting a fury within her. Now, several yearster, she found it utterly intolerable that this


    disgraceful woman continued to cling to Jason like a stubborn stain, wreaking havoc on his


    marriage.


    When Sophia noticed Alison’s agitation, she quicklyforted her, gently patting her back to ease


    her distress. “Grandma, please don’t be upset,” she urged softly.


    Alison softly sighed as she gazed at Sophia’s pale, delicate features, her expression filled with pity.


    But her eyes hardened again in the next moment. “In the past, I worried too much, always fearing


    that the revtion of their rtionship would ruin Jason,” she exined. “But don’t worry, Sophia.


    I’ll investigate what happened between them in Vrun City. Jason may not have betrayed you. Just


    be patient.”


    Sophia remained silent, her mind swirling with unanswered questions. She couldn’t shake the


    feeling that Alison was keeping secrets from her, and she couldn’t help wondering what Ada had


    done to evoke such intense disgust from her grandmother–inw.


    Back at the hospital, in Ada’s ward, the sound of medical instruments beeped incessantly,


    Ada leaned against the bed’s backboard, and her fingers clenched tightly over her chest. On the


    other hand, she grasped Jason’s, seekingfort in his presence. “Jason,” she whispered, her


    voice quivering. “I’m still feeling terrible. Am I going to die?”


    Jason’s lips pressed into a thin line, his gaze shifting toward the doctor standing nearby, his tone


    laced with urgency. “What’s the matter with her?”


    The attending physician’s voice trembled as she responded, “M–Miss Taylor was already in a


    weakened state. The excessive blood lossst night has exacerbated her palpitations. I rmend


    an immediate blood transfusion.”


    Jason’s demeanor turned frigid, his frustration evident as he snapped, “Then do it now! Why the


    dy?”


    “But… Miss Taylor has a rare blood type, and no supplies are avable in any hospital in this city,”


    the doctor exined hesitantly.

    Jason felt a surge of panic coursing through him. He was about sudden grip on his arm.


    “Jason, I can’t take this anymore. My heart’s in agony,” Ada cried out desperately. “Sophia shares


    my blood type. Could you ask her toe to the hospital and save me?”

    Jason’s gaze turned icy as he surveyed Ada, searching for ulterior motives in her plea. Ada’s spine


    tingled under his intense scrutiny, and suddenly, her body started convulsing violently.


    The attending physician hurried forward to assess her condition, her voice filled with rm. “Her


    heart is failing. We need a venttor, now!”


    Amidst the ensuing chaos, the hospital room descended into disarray once more.


    Jason’s paze lingered on the grim scar adorning Ada’s chest, a silent testament to past events.


    After much contemtion, he finally decided Stepping out of the hospital room, he swiftly retrieved


    his phone and dialed Sophia’s number.


    “Sophia,” Jason began, his voice tinged with urgency and demand. “After Ada fellst night due to


    your push, she lost a dangerous amount of blood, and her heart is failing. The doctor insists on a


    blood transfusion, but her rare blood type is not avable in the hospital. You need toe


    immediately to donate blood for her.”


    On the other end of the line, Sophiay weakly on the bed, grappling with the excruciating pain in


    her chest. Despite the agony, a bitter smile crept onto her lips as she listened to Jason’s words.


    “Why did I have that scar removed during my treatment abroad?” she pondered. Her decision


    stemmed from a desire to spare Jason from guilt and me. Yet now, she realized the gravity of her


    folly after seeing how Ada had appropriated all her efforts and sacrifices.


    Bitterness seeped into Sophia’s thoughts. ‘Now, Ada is iming credit for all the sacrifices made for


    Jason and exploiting the situation to put my life at risk!‘ shemented.


    Aware of her fragile state, Sophia understood that donating blood to Ada would only elerate her


    own death. “What if i refuse?” Sophia asked firmly.
