Chapter 871


    A male doctor was currently talking to Jeremy Quest. “The patient is suffering from congenital


    dyserythropoietic anemia, and he must undergo a blood transfusion now. Don’t worry. I’ll contact his


    blood donor.”


    The doctor was wearing a white coat and a pair of refined, silver-rimmed sses. His hair was


    neatly parted in three-sevenths, matching well with his delicate features. His presence imparted an


    air of elegance.


    He looked very much like a hot actor walking out from the television.


    Upon hearing that, X Quest immediately quickened her pace as she walked up to the doctor. “I


    can give him my blood.”


    The male doctor was startled. “You? Do you know what blood type he has?”


    “Yes. I’m his wife. We share the same blood type,” X said again.


    “Come with me. You have to do a simple body check-up before we proceed with the blood


    transfusion,” the doctor exined.


    As he spoke, X stole a nce at the name tag on his chest. Stephen Harris, the Vice President


    of Municipal Hospital.


    He looked at most thirty years old.


    X was astonished at how young the hospital’s vice president was.


    “Let’s go.” Stephen extended his hand politely, showing her the direction.


    X nodded and quickly followed him to do her body check-up.


    Various tests were waiting for her. Fortunately and gratefully, all of them went smoothly under


    Stephen’s guidance.


    Afterpleting the tests, Stephen took 200Cc of blood from X’s body.


    After the extraction, he hurriedly brought the bag of blood into the emergency room.


    X then returned to Jeremy and sat down next to him.


    When Jeremy saw X, he turned to her and started questioning her, “What’s going on? How could


    Stan have congenital dyserythropoietic anemia? It seems like you know everything. Why didn’t you


    tell me earlier?”


    “I hid it from you because I don’t want you to worry about us. His blood disease kicks in from time to


    time. We never know when it’s going to happen. All I know is that he has to go for blood transfusion


    whenever it’s messing him up,” Xmented.


    Hearing that, worries began to fill Jeremy’s eyes. “What? Is it that serious? Can it be cured?”


    X shook her head. “There’s no way to cure it, as far as we know… He can only rely on blood


    transfusion for the time being.”


    Jeremy let out a deep sigh of distress. “Oh dear…”


    X gently held Jeremy’s hand to soothe his fear. “He’ll be fine as long as there’s enough blood


    supply to him.”


    Jeremy nodded lightly. “I know, but it’s too scary when it happens.”


    “Don’t worry. He’ll be fine. I promise,” X reassured.


    Jeremy pondered for a short while before continuing, “X, did he get married to you because of


    your blood? Did he find you because he needed your blood? Did you know about his disease before


    the two of you got together?”


    Upon hearing that, X immediately interrupted Jeremy, “No, Dad. Everything is just a coincidence.


    He’s not after my blood. I already knew about his blood disease before our marriage.”


    There were many things that she did not want to tell Jeremy. She was afraid that he would start to


    imagine things if he found out about the truth.


    “X, I’m worried about you. How long can Stan live? What if his condition worsens and he


    suddenly passes away? What are you going to do? Have you ever thought about the


    consequences?” Jeremy asked.


    X leaned on Jeremy’s shoulder and hugged his arms. “It won’t happen, Dad. Take it easy.”


    Once again, Jeremy sighed helplessly. “I hope so. I hope Stan can live a long life and protect my


    daughter forever.”


    His words touched X. “He will.”

    About ten minutester, Stephen walked out of the emergency room.


    He slowly took off his mask and threw it into the trash can next to him.


    “How is Stanley, Dr. Harris?” X and Jeremy asked in unison.
