Chapter 107 You Still Have Me
His every word felt like fireworks exploding in her ears.
Her heart stuttered in her chest. She began to sob uncontrobly. The pain was unbearable.
Her vice-like grip wrinkled Ethan''s T-shirt that was soaked in her tears.
"It''s okay. I''m here. It''s over now, J." Ethan hurriedly took out a tissue and wiped her tears. He
peppered kisses across her cheek and lips tofort her.
J looked at him through her teary eyes, and her nose had turned red. She was so vulnerable at
the moment that she shrank in his arms.
She wrapped her arms around Ethan''s neck and cried, "What do I do now, Ethan? I have severed
all ties with my adoptive parents, and Hannah is in fatal danger now. I feel like I have no one in this
world. Nobody wants me."
J felt abandoned and helpless. Living in a world without any hope or anyone to hold on to was
tragic.
J wasn''t an optimistic person. She always pretended to be strong and happy to protect herself
from the world.
"You still have me. I''ll always be with you." Ethan pulled her closer into his arms. He meant every
word he said.
J pressed her face closer against his neck and continued to sob silently. She clung to him for
dear life.
She didn''t know how and since when she started trusting Ethan. But at the moment, the man was
her savior.
He continued to stroke her backfortingly.
After crying out her emotions, J leaned against Ethan''s chest, wrapping her arms around his
waist. She felt sleepy.
As she closed her eyes, Ethan pulled the jacket tighter, covering J''s neck, and kissed the top of
her head. "Forget everything and sleep."
When J woke up again, it was already midnight. She was lying on the bed in her room. It looked
like Ethan had carried her into the house.
A nightmare woke her up.
She wanted to close her eyes and sleep again but couldn''t.
Her mind was filled with thoughts about Hannah. She tossed and turned on the bed all night.
The next morning, J walked out of the room. Her eyes were bloodshot and puffy.
After she called herpany and took a leave of absence, J went to the bathroom to brush her
teeth. She nned to go to the hospital to see if they had found another suitable liver for Hannah.
"Your phone is ringing." Ethan knocked on the bathroom door and came in with J''s phone. A
frown lined his forehead when he saw J''s tired eyes.
J answered the phone and quickly turned her head. She looked haggard today and didn''t want
Ethan to see her in this state.
"Hello, Miss Lind? I''m a nurse from the municipal hospital. I''m calling to tell you that the liver that
was originally assigned for Hannah Stone is avable again. The liver transntation operation will
be performed as scheduled."
"Oh, okay, okay. That''s great!" At first, J was overjoyed. Butter, she remembered what they
had done earlier. "Didn''t you say the patient decided to continue with his treatment? What
happened now?"
She wondered which corrupt doctor in the hospital had secretly colluded with Fiona.
"Well..." The nurse sounded embarrassed. She cleared her throat and said, "Well, I just called to
inform you that the surgery will be performed as nned."
J hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. After a moment''s thought, she turned to look
at Ethan. "How did you make it?"
Ethan rubbed the back of his neck nonchntly. "Well, I know a few people working in the hospital."

J examined his face. Ethan''s eyes were droopy, and his hair was a mess. He was leaning
against the sink, brushing his teeth.
Somehow, J sensed something was wrong. She didn''t believe him.
After all, she believed Ethan was just amon man. How could he know more influential people
than Fiona did?
