Chapter 85
Shannon retorted, “Do you think you would survive if I took the me? If it weren’t for me, you really wouldn’t have had a chance!
The fact that the hospital dared to perform this surgery a
and broadcast it live indicated that Lea was confident <b>to </b>save <b>Donna</b>
Shannon wanted to ask why Donna, who wasn’t her biological mother, imed to be her mother, Who <b>was </b>she really? Who were her biological parents! But now wasn’t the time toplicate matters further.
As for her biological parents, having a mother like Donna was already a disaster. Father, mother, any family ties.. she didn’t want any of it. Shannon bit her lip, swallowing all her questions and emotions.
*You ungrateful brat Donna raised her hand to <b>point </b>at her, but she was <b>too </b>weak. Her hand lifted halfway and then dropped back down. If she had the strength, she would have pped Shannon.
Donna struggled to say, “You heartless brat, II… Call Dr. Dup right now! Tell <b>him </b>you’ll confess and take the me. Ask him to get me out of here!”
Shannon’s eyes widened, her gaze turning cold and <b>distant </b>with disappointment
Even now, <b>Donna </b>wanted her to take the fall for Helen. It was clear that <b>Donna </b>was willing to sacrifice Shannon’s life for her own survival. Thankfully, they weren’t biologically rted. If they were, Shannon would have died of shame for having such a mother,
Donna shouted, “What are you still standing here? Pick up the phone and call him!”
“Don’t you get it yer?” Shannon held the test report in front of Donna. The reason Peter is sure you’re going to die is because the kidney they gave you is ipatible with you!”
She continued. “And you never had kidney cancer. They <b>made </b>it all up to control you and forced me to take the me for Helen. They removed one of your kidneys to ensure your death!”
Shannon hadn’t intended to reveal all this, wanting Donna to focus on her treatment instead. But now, she had no choice.
Donna was stunned for a moment, then her anger red up even more. “You filthy liar! <b>You’re </b>making up these crazy stories just to avoid saving your mother. I raised you for nothing, you ungrateful wretch”
The words “ungrateful wretch” <b>and </b>“Tilthy liar kept ringing in Shannon’s cars, fueling her rage,
“Then why didn’t you just leave years ago! Why did youe back? Shannon asked, barely able to contain herself In her heart, she wanted to ask, “Why do <b>you </b>insist on iming to be my mother when <b>you </b><b>aren’t</b><b>?</b>This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Donna <b>was </b>taken aback. She had a grown daughter, beautiful and attending a good high school. Donna thought she would need to rely on <b>Shannon </b>for the rest of her life.
Donna said sternly, “I am your mother! <b>Have </b>you no conscience?”
<b>Shannon </b>was <b>infuriated</b>.
Donna warned, “Shannon, if you dare disobey me, refuse to save me, or show me no respect, I’ll expose you to the medial You’ll ruin your reputation and your future!”
Shannon closed her eyes, too angry to respond.
She recalled what Lea had told her at the police station, saying Donna was the only mother she knew whopletelycked matemal nature and was just <b>a </b>selfish woman,
Another wave of intense <b>pain </b>hit Donna, and she screamed <b>hysterically</b>, “Call Dr. <b>Dup </b>now… hurry…
<b>Suddenly</b>, Lea pushed the door open and entered, exuding a cold aura. She also had a stern <b>and </b>icy gaze.
She bent down, picked up
the phone from the floor, and ced it in Donna’s hand. She said coldly. “Call him.
<b>She </b>didn’t <b>actually </b>want to <b>save </b><b>Donna</b><b>. </b>It was mainly to deal with Helen and Fraley Medical, Besides, Shannon still cared about her “mother’s life.
<b>Donna </b>was terrified by Lea’s cold tone and fierce gaze, <b>wanting </b>nothing more than to escape. She hesitated, then struggled to dial Peter’s number.
Shannon watched in some surprise but said nothing.
Lorrand nced at Shannon with sympathy and then looked at Donna with disdain.
