Chapter 1447
"I want you to get them to leave the hospital by today. I don''t want Little Leaf to see them again," Toby
said, his expression impassive.
As long as Titus and his wife were still in the hospital, they remained a ticking time bomb. Therefore,
Toby had to chase them away as soon as possible.
Tim adjusted his sses again. "Got it. I''ll try my best. Is there anything else?"
In response, Toby shook his head. Then, Tim left for Titus'' ward at once.
At this moment, Titus was lying in bed. He was so skinny that he no longer looked like a human. It was
as though he was a skeleton wrapped with human skin, which was terrifying.
Julia was seated by the bed as she sobbed and wiped Titus'' body clean. At the same time, she kept
saying that he would survive. Although her words were moving, the reality was cruel.
Even the doctors couldn''t guarantee Titus'' life, so how could someone like her, who had zero medical
background whatsoever, make such a im?
Standing outside the ward, Tim knocked on the door. "Mrs. Gray."

Hearing his voice, Julia quickly got to her feet and said, "You''re finally here, Dr. Lancaster. Are you here
to save Titus?" She sped her hands together and looked expectantly at him.
Tim leaned against the door frame and replied, "Mrs. Gray, I have no idea why you think my presence
here means there''s hope for Mr. Gray. All the doctors have already told you there''s no way Mr. Gray will
recover, so there''s no point in saving him. Even if there''s a suitable kidney, he won''t be able to get off
the operating table alive. As such, I hope you''ll wake up to reality. Rather than letting Mr. Gray stay in
the hospital and experiencing such torment, you should bring him home and let him spend the rest of
his days happily."
Julia became agitated as tears slid down her cheeks the instant he finished speaking. She barked,
"Stop spouting nonsense! What do you mean that he''ll never recover? You''re a doctor, so how can you
say something like that? Aren''t you supposed to never give up on any patient until the veryst
moment? As rtives, we still haven''t given up on him, so how can a doctor like you stop trying to save
him?"
"Mrs. Gray, you''ll never give up because you''re his rtive, and it''s only natural that you want him to
survive. However, I''m not his rtive. As a doctor, I can look at this matter with rationality, and I know
when I should give up on a patient and when not to. Mr. Gray is in a terrible condition, and the longer
he stays in the hospital, the more torment he''ll have to go through. I''m just trying to help him, so I''m
persuading you to get him discharged. That way, he won''t feel bored in the hospital, and when he
returns home, he''ll spend the rest of his days doing what he loves."
"You…" Julia red at Tim as though she couldn''t believe that a doctor would say such cruel words.
Just then, the sound of stilettos clicking against the ground came from behind Tim. He turned around
and saw Rina, whose eyes had turned red.
She stopped in front of Tim and stared fixedly at him. "Dr. Lancaster, I heard your conversation with my
mom. You said that given his health condition, he''ll probably never leave the operating table alive.
Simrly, there''s a small chance he''ll survive, am I right?"
Tim replied nonchntly, "The probability is less than 30 percent."
Rina bit her lip. "Thirty percent is indeed a small chance, but we can give it a try nheless. What if
my dad survives? If we do nothing now, there would be zero chances of sess."
"She has a point." Julia dipped her head.
Tim squinted his eyes. "Regardless, do you have a suitable kidney?"
The instant Julia heard his words, she turned from hopeful to despondent. With a pale face, she
staggered and almost copsed to the ground. He''s right. Without a suitable kidney, everything we say
is pointless even if Titus manages to hold out longer. At that moment, she sat back on the edge of the
bed, appearing downcast.
On the other hand, Rina balled up her fists and lowered her head, falling into her thoughts.
Tim tucked his hands into the pockets of his white coat and said, "Alright, I''ve told you everything you
need to know, and you should ponder on the rest. I''m asking you to get Mr. Gray discharged so that he
feels better. I''m sure you don''t want him to spend the rest of his days suffering in the hospital. Okay, I''ll
take my leave now. I''lle backter, and I hope you''ll have decided by then." With that, he turned
around and left.
Julia covered her face with her hands and bawled her eyes out. Meanwhile, Rina stood there with
clenched fists. She nced at Julia and shifted her attention to Titus, who was all skin and bones. As
though having made a decision, she dashed out of the ward.
Startled by her actions for a moment, Julia soon ran after her. "Rina, where are you going?"
Rina stopped in her tracks but did not turn around as she replied, "I''m going to look for the person who
can save dad."
"The person who can save your dad? Who is it?" Julia hurriedly asked.
Rina parted her lips and replied, "You''ll find out soon, Mom. I''ll get going now."
Following that, she left the hospital in a hurry. With a perplexed expression, Julia watched her go
further away.
After that, Rina drove her car to Paradigm. On the way to her destination, she clenched the steering
wheel, her eyes red.
If she had a choice, she would never want to look for Sonia, for that would mean her identity would be
exposed. When that happened, she would lose everything. However, she couldn''t bring herself to stand
by and watch her father die.
She had never enjoyed parental love before; it wasn''t until she became part of the Gray Family that she
realized it felt wonderful and heart-warming to have parents. She longed for their love and warmth, so
she would never want her identity to be exposed. Otherwise, she would lose everything that she
currently enjoyed.
As such, she never wanted Sonia to meet up with her parents. Nevertheless, it hade to a point
where she had no choice but to expose her identity to save her ailing father. She could never let her
father die, after all.
Although everyone said that her father was a terrible person, to her, he was the best father in the world.
She couldn''t let the world''s best father pass away, even if it meant he would no longer acknowledge her
as his daughter.
While she was in her thoughts, she clenched her teeth. Soon, she arrived at Paradigm and parked her
car before entering the lobby.
The receptionist called out to her, "Whom are you looking for, Miss?"
Rina stopped in her tracks. "I''m looking for President Reed." Then, she continued walking forward.
The receptionist hurriedly stopped her. "I''m sorry, Miss, but do you have an appointment? If you don''t
have one, I can''t let you see her."
Rina frowned impatiently. "I don''t have an appointment. Tell me what I have to do to see President
Reed."
The receptionist replied with a smile, "Without an appointment, you won''t be able to see President
Reed. Unless she agrees to see you, I won''t let you move forward."
"Contact her and tell her that I''m looking for her, then. My name is Rina Gray," she urged while
clenching her fists.
The receptionist nodded. "Alright, please give me a second." With that, she returned to the counter and
picked up the phone before calling Sonia''s office.
