Chapter 680
Amelia sighed, then looked at Rosalie and said, “Well, it’s liver cancer in the third stage, and I have
half a year to live. Although the doctor shat chemotherapy might allow me to live for another two
years, I don’t want to spend the rest of my life on chemotherapy. I want to spend thest six months
in my own way!”
Rosalie was stunned. Although she had a bad feeling when she saw those medicines, she never
expected Amelia’s illness to be so serious.
“What about surgery? What did the doctor say?” she asked anxiously. “Unless I have a liver
transnt, there is little point in surgery. But I have a rare blood type, and it’s hard to find a
compatible source of liver, so there is no need to think about liver transnt,” Amelia said.
Matilda hesitantly said, “In fact, I’ve also thought about it. It’s not that there is no liver source at all!
Didn’t you donate bone marrow to someone before? The doctor said that the person is only a few
years older than you and has the same blood type as yours. Why don’t we try to find that person?
Maybe that person… is willing to donate liver to you.”
After all, for the donor, even if a part of the liver was donated, the

remaining liver could maintain the body’s needs and would slowly grow back in time.
Amelia said, “Mom, stop it. It has been so long. Besides, the hospital has a rule that the patient’s
name cannot be disclosed! What’s more, I didn’t expect anything in return when I donated my bone
marrow back then. If I ask the person to cut their liver for me now, wouldn’t it be moral coercion?”
“But…”
“In addition, there are risks in surgery. The person will have to undergo another risky surgery to
donate liver to me. The risk of liver donation is much greater than that of bone marrow donation.”
Amelia added, “That person is a few years older than me and probably has family and children. It
means the whole family will take the risks for me.”
As Rosalie listened to the conversation between the mother and daughter, her expression suddenly
changed, as if she had thought of something. “Amelia, have you… also donated bone marrow?”
“It happened many years ago,” Amelia said lightly. She did not notice that
Rosalie used the word “also.” “When I was young, I registered in the bone
14

marrow bank. Not long after, they called me to ask if I was willing to donate because there was a
person with a rare blood type that happened to match mine. So I donated it and saved a life.”
Rosalie frowned. Amelia, like Irene, had donated bone marrow. “Is it a coincidence, or is there a
hidden truth? Maybe I should look into it,” she thought.
“Amelia, you should take good care of your body anyway. If you are worried about money, I will help
you solve it!” Rosalie said.
“Rosalie, thank you. I know my illness well. I will cherish every day,” Amelia said.
Rosalie knew that the best option was to find a suitable liver source and perform a liver transnt.
Moreover, she wanted to find out whether Amelia’s bone marrow donation had anything to do with
Irene.
There might be a turnaround if it was as she guessed.
After she left Amelia’s house, Rosalie was sent by the driver to the hospital for a prenatal visit.
Meanwhile, Jonathan was already at the hospital.
As soon as Rosalie saw Jonathan, her eyes could not help but turn red. She strode forward quickly,
opened her arms, and wrapped them around Jonathan’s waist. Then, she buried her face deeply in
his embrace.
“What’s wrong?” Jonathan lowered his head and looked at Rosalie in his
arms.
Rosalie teared up. “Amelia… only has half a year left to live. If she can’t find a suitable liver source
within half a year, she will…” Her voice choked up unconsciously.
She could only imagine how much determination it would take for Amelia, who had wanted to retain
the custody right of her son, to make up her mind and hand over the custody to Warren.
If Amelia had not gotten that disease and did not need to deal with all the difficulties in treating it,
she would not have made that decision.
A trace of surprise shed across Jonathan’s eyes. “What disease does she have?”
“Liver cancer.” Rosalie murmured, “It’s already in the third stage. Only a liver transnt can help
her. But Amelia has a rare blood type, and it is difficult to find a suitable source of liver.”
As she spoke, she sniffed and looked up at Jonathan. “Jon, can you help
12:54
me check something?”
Jonathan looked at her red eyes and the mist in them. “Okay, I can do whatever you want, but
please don’t cry, okay?” Her tears would make him heartbroken.
Even though he knew she burst into tears because she was worried about Amelia, he still could not
help but feel jealous. He did not want her tears to be shed for other people.
Rosalie choked and calmed herself down, then said, “I just found out today that Amelia has donated
bone marrow before, but it was a blind donation at that time, and Amelia didn’t know who the
recipient was.”
When Jonathan heard that, his eyes shed with light. “Are you suspecting that the person to whom
Amelia has donated bone marrow was Warren?”
As expected, he could understand her thoughts without saying much. Rosalie nodded and said,
“Yes, I am. After all, it is such a coincidence. Irene and Amelia have both donated bone marrow, and
Irene’s
ex-boyfriend at that time was a doctor from the hospital where Warren was treated.”
A series of coincidences made it impossible for her not to overthink it.
Jonathan said, “Okay, I’ll check it out. Now, you can rest assured, and don’t be sad.”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and gently stroked her under-eyes with his fingers. “You’re going to
have an examinationter. Didn’t the doctor say you should try to stay happy as you’re pregnant?”
Rosalie responded with a hum. Regarding Amelia, she hoped that it was really as she had guessed.
If that were the case, then there might still be a ray of hope for Amelia.
In the hospital, Rosalie had a routine examination first and then a progesterone shot in her belly.
After a period of injections, the three fetuses in her belly were developing well, but there were
already many needle holes in her belly, which was even a little bruised due to the injections.
Even though he had seen her take injections many times, Jonathan would still get nervous
whenever he saw the slender needle pierce her belly. His whole body would stiffen, and his hands
would break out in cold sweat. In the past, no matter how dangerous the situation had been, he
would

not be nervous.
However, he would be nervous whenever something happened to
Rosalie.
