Chapter 284
Given the circumstances, that meant Donald was no longer into her.
She stared at Donald, dumbfounded as tears flowed nonstop. The expression on her face was a
complex mix of regret, guilt, and mourning.
“Can I have a minute with Donald?” Jennifer asked in a low voice while biting her lip.
Wynter and the rest exchanged nces before walking out of the ward in unison, leaving Donald
and Jennifer alone in therge room.
Meanwhile, Jennifer could see clearly that Donald''s eyes were losing their previous luster.
“Donald..." Jennifer sat down beside him and held his right arm.
When sheid eyes on it, her heart sank again.
There were rough cracks on his arm, and the veins in it bulged. As soon as she saw it, she knew it
was in poor condition. Other than that, his face was deathly pale. Moreover, all of his thick, raven
hair had be silvery.
“Jadar Stone had rid me of all of my vitality,” he said.
Jennifer kissed his right arm and then rubbed it with her cheek. Shaking her head, she wept. “I''m
sorry... But why did you act in such a silly way? Why didn''t you leave even though you knew the
stone could be fatal to you?”
Donald''s gaze became steely. “Leave? What would happen to theb if I had left? Do you seriously
think you will get to live on, free of consequences, if there''s a data breach? Will your trashy brother
get to continue going around being a show-off if I had left?”
Jennifer would never understand Donald''s patriotism and heroism.
“Leave. Go home.” Donald retracted his arm. “I''m just a dying man.”
No longer able to contain her feelings of sorrow, Jennifer copsed into his arms and bawled her
eyes out.
Although Donald wanted to fly into a rage, he suppressed that urge, choosing instead to persuade
her in a gentle voice, “I''m tired. I need some rest.”
It wasn''t until then that Jennifer scrambled up and wiped her tears before dering resolutely,
“Donald, I will do everything to find a cure. If I can''t, I will die alongside you.”
Closing his eyes, he assessed his own condition. He had lost all of his powers, and he couldn''t
sense any strength left in his body. Then, his nose started to bleed again.
He wiped it casually, only to see a fleeting glimmer in his blood.
Those were traces of powdered Jadar Stone that was fused within him.
Outside the door, Lilith and Hannah were studying his condition.
“His statistics are utterly abnormal.
Even his blood contains radiation. I’ve never seen anything like this,” Lilith stated.
Hannah sighed and said, “You haven''t seen the radiograph of his internal organs. His liver and heart
are both abnormally swollen. Cancer cells had spread throughout his body. Even his bones are filled
with cancerous cells. Luckily, he was powerful enough. Anybody else would''ve dropped dead at any
given moment.”
Lilith’s gaze flickered for a moment. “I will be heading to Jadeborough. There’s an S8-Grade
laboratory over there. I''ll see if I can find a solution.”
Hannah nodded. “Okay. I will do my best to sustain his life in the meantime.”
Wynter had also returned to her residence in search of solutions to the predicament.
Thus, Reina was left with the responsibility to take care of Donald. She was in charge of taking care
of his daily needs.
Raymond came to visit once, and he shed tears upon seeing Donald.
He could no longer see Donald''s face clearly, so he couldn''t read Donald''s fortune, nor could he
identify a way out for thetter.

Meanwhile, Jennifer arrived at her home.
Kevin was scrolling his phone on the balcony while sitting in his wheelchair. Upon noticing her
arrival, he set his phone down with a gloomy look in his eyes. “Why were you home sote? Were
you frolicking around with Donald?”
Linda rushed over to her when she heard noises. With her hands on her hips, she blurted out
furiously, “You d*mn girl! Where the f*ck have you been to? You had Tyrone waiting for you for half
an hour! Are you ying dumb? Why won''t you want to marry someone from a prestigious family
that is a century old?”
