Chapter 279
Chapter 279 Taylor Momsey
The next day, Elias sat restlessly in the president’s office of Winters Enterprise, having spent the entire
night without sleep and anxiously awaiting the matching results. The overflowing ashtray in the room.
testified to his anxiety, even though he appeared calm on the surface.
As he watched the sky brighten, he sighed deeply and put out his cigarette. He leaned back in his
chair,pletely forgetting about the injuries on his back.
Why is there no news yet? He frowned as he impatiently picked up his phone and nced at the time.
It was
almost 6.00AM.
Suddenly, the oflice doorwas shoved open, and Yacob rushed in, panting.
When Elias saw him, he sat up straight and eagerly asked, “How is it? Are the matching results out?”
Yacob walked to the desk after catching his breath and shook his head. “Mrs. Winters is not a match
either.”
Disappointment reced the anticipation in Elias’ dark eyes, followed by anger. He swept everything
on the desk to the ground, causing a loud crash. Unable to hold back his frustration, he cursed, “Damn
it! How can there not be a single match?”
Is this really karma, as Mom said? Dad has already passed away; Grandpa died without a clear cause,
and now Aiden has this illness. Is it really karma? But why didn’t it fall upon me instead? Why let the
innocent three-year-old child suffer?
Yacob then continued, “However, they actually found a match.”
“Who?!” Elias’ head snapped up, and he fixed a piercing stare on Yacob, eager to know who it was. He
quickly searched through his mind but couldn’t think of anyone.
“It was found in the bone marrow registry, but… I’m afraid he might not agree,” Yacob said, sounding.
somewhat discouraged.
Elias angrily eximed when he heard that, “Since it was found in the bone marrow registry, why
wouldn’t he agree? If he won’t agree, why did he even register in the first ce?”
“Calm down, Mr. Winters. He registered in the bone inarrow registry, so he’ll definitely agree to donate,
but he might not donate to us.”
“Who is it?”
“As soon as I received this news, I had the hospital contact him. Normally, the donor and recipient are
kept unaware of each other’s identities, but the donor insisted on knowing the recipient’s identity, and
after hearing it, he refused…”
Before Yacob could finish speaking, Elias snarled in fury, “Can you please get to the f*cking point? Who
is it?”
“It’s… Taylor Momsey.”
Taylor Momsey? When Elias heard the name, his face was filled with shock. How can it be Taylor? Is
this really karma? Of all people, it just has to be the person who hates me the most in this world to be a
match for my son’s bone
marrow.
Yacob wasn’t surprised at his reaction at all because it was impossible for this donor to agree on the
bone
marrow donation. The grievances between Taylor and Mr. Winters are simply irreconcble. We can
only wait for new candidates in the bone marrow registry. However, Taylor is currently the most suitable
candidate. If he agrees to donate his bone marrow, the kid can undergo the transnt right away. For
this illness, the sooner the bone marrow transnt, the better. Otherwise, the kid will continue to suffer
Meanwhile, Elias sat there for a long time, lost in thought.
After a while, Amanda’s phone call came in. Yacob had to remind Elias to answer the call. “Mr. Winters,
it’s Miss Bailey’s call.”
Only then did Elias finally snap out of his daze and answer the phone. He simply said, “Okay, I’m
coming right away.”
“Let’s go to the hospital. Aiden is being admitted today! After that, he picked up his suit jacket and
walked out of the office, with Yacob following behind.
At the hospital, Amanda had been patiently exining to Aiden why he needed to stay in the hospital
and wear a patient gown. Yet, Aiden might be a child, but he wasn’t a toddler and couldn’t be easily
fooled. Therefore, he didn’t believe any of her exnations.
“Mommy, why isn’t Daddy here yet? I want to hear it from Daddy. You’re lying to me.”
“Daddy will be here soon. And I’m not lying to you, baby. It’s a homework assignment from your
teacher, asking us to experience what it feels like to be a patient in the hospital.”

Although she also felt like her lies were simply too ridiculous, she had no other choice but to continue
spouting such nonsense. She couldn’t possibly tell him that he was sick, and it was so serious that it
required a hospital stay and a bone marrow transnt.
“Hmph!” He looked disdainfally at the oversized patient gown he was wearing, constantly itching to take
it off, but she wouldn’t allow him to do so.
At that moment, Elias arrived, pushing open the door to the ward.
They had chosen a VIP ward, so it was a single room. Only Aiden would be staying in the room, which
had been warmly decorated and filled with toys to keep him entertained.
“Daddy! Why do I have to stay in the hospital? Mommy said it was a homework assignment from the
teacher. Is that true? I don’t believe a word she’s saying.”

The moment Elias walked into the ward and saw his little son wearing therge patient gown, it felt like
a hand reached into his chest and tightly clenched his heart, causing him unbearable pain. Such a
young has to wear a patient gown….
He stood still for a few seconds and then walked over, saying, “Mommy is telling you the truth. We’ll
complete the assignment here and go home after that, alright?”
“What? But it will take so long. Mommy said we have to stay for a long time.” Aiden looked
disappointed.
Elias shot a nce at Amanda before lowering his head with a smile and gently ruffling his son’s little
hair. “Not for long. We’ll be able to go home very soon.”
“Really? That’s great!” As soon as Aiden heard that they could go home soon, a smile tugged on his
lips, and he happily ran to y with the toys on the side.
She immediately got up and pulled Elias outside of the ward. She even made sure she closed the door
so Aiden wouldn’t overhear their conversation.
“Why did you tell him we can go home soon? We haven’t found a bone marrow match yet. How can he
be discharged soon? I’ve already told him so many lies. I don’t want to lie to him anymore. What will I
say if we can’t go hometer? Should I continue lying to my son?” She looked at him angrily.
Yacob remained tight-lipped as he stood by silently, Mr. Elias has to tell her himself. We found a bone
marrow match, but the match refused to donate. This can be heartbreaking to say.
“We’ve found a suitable bone marrow match. I’m going to talk to the donor tonight,” Elias said in a deep
voice.
“What? So soon?” Amandà looked surprised and couldn’t help butugh heartily. “You’re going to go
talk to the donorter? Take me with you. Let’s go together.”
Yacob, on the side, looked up in astonishment at Elias. What is Mr. Winters doing? Taylor would never
agree to donate his bone marrow. Wouldn’t telling Amanda about this only make her more hopeless
once she learns about Taylor’s refusalter?
However, Elias continued saying, “I’ll go alone; you should stay here with Aiden.”
“No, I want to go with you. I want to thank the donor properly and meet him in person.” She stubbornly
insisted on tagging along.
