    Chapter 155 He Deserved to Die


    Jeff stood there for quite a while before he finally managed to speak, “Mr. Mullen, what kind of joke is


    this?”


    Ashton didn’t say anything more and just got in the rat


    Upon leaving the airport, he was greeted by a cold breeze Coupled with the cigarette he had just


    smoked, his throat felt like it was burning with pain.


    All along the way, he kept coughing, and it just kept getting worse.


    Jeff couldn’t bear it any longer and looked at the driver in front of him, “Chad, let’s go to the hospital


    first.”


    In the past, Ashton would have definitely been angry with Jeff for making decisions on his own like


    this.


    But now, he just keeps coughing intermittently, not saying a word.


    It wasn’t until the car was almost at the hospital that he asked, “Can you arrange for someone to follow


    Deborah and take care of things?”


    Jeff promptly replied, “Don’t worry, it’s all taken care of. It’s just that Jingron Design doesn’t allow


    outsiders to enter, so the two bodyguards we sent can only follow up to the outside of thepany.


    Ashton coughed severely, wanting to say something, but couldn’t get the words out.


    Today is Joseph’s first day joining the ck Group.


    The former CEO, who had left the ck Group three years ago, has suddenly returned, which will


    undoubtedly provoke hostility from many people within the ck Group.


    Particrly the current CEO, Chandler, and many executives in important positions who were


    promoted by Chandler.


    Those people couldn’t tolerate Joseph in secret, and if they were to make a move against him,


    Deborah might not be spared from bing a victim.


    After all, Deborah and Joseph have been quite affectionate these days, and it could be considered


    quite high-profile


    The car stopped outside the hospital, and Jeff apanied Ashton to see the doctor.


    In thete stages of lung cancer, there are essentially no effective treatment methods.


    After the doctor’s examination, they only prescribed some pain-relief medication and medicine to slow


    down the worsening of the condition.


    After prescribing the medicine, the doctor asked Ashton, “Mr. Mullen, do you have any immediate


    family members?


    Ashton’s face looked terrible, and the coughing caused severe abdominal pain, making it difficult for


    him to speak


    Jeff chimed in, “There’s a grandfather in his eighties, and a daughter who’s almost eight years old.”


    The doctor noticed that Jeff had stopped speaking and asked further, “Is there anything else? Parents,


    or other children? Siblings would also be helpful.”


    Jeff promptly replied, “There’s none left.”


    Ashton’s parents had passed away early, and as for siblings and other children, they simply didn’t


    exist.


    Even including uncles and the like, there is only one Wayne who has already been imprisoned.


    The doctor tapped on his desk, his expression serious as he said, “Here’s the situation. Mr. Mullen, in


    addition to the lung tumor, the cancer cells have already infiltrated your bone marrow.

    Jett looks grave, “Among the immediate family members, there probably Isn’t a suitable candidate for a


    bone marrow donation


    The doctor hesitated for a moment before looking at Ashton, “Mr. Mullen, your daughter cane in for


    an

    exammatk


    Ashton immediately objected, “That won’t work, she’s so young, how could she possibly donate bone


    marrow?”


    The doctor opened several cases of bone marrow


    dons on theputer for him to see.


    “Nowadays, medical advancements have greatly reduced the risks associated with bone marrow


    donation. Donating bone marrow, no longer requires extracting the marrow itself, but rather involves


    drawing blood to obtain hematopoietic stem cells from the bloodstream.


    Children around seven or eight years old donating bone marrow do indeed tace slightly higher risks


    His voice paused slightly, “For you, Mr. Mullen, having the surgery and receiving a bone marrow


    donation could mean


    a new lease on lite.


    It’s justte stage lung cancer. Even it the surgery and bone marrow transnt go smoothly, it’s hard to


    expect a long survival period afterward.


    Ashton recalls the events from many years ago.


    Deborah had once pleaded with him, disregarding her own dignity, to donate bone marrow to Alyssa.


    This act saved


    Alyssa, who was suttering from leukemia.


    In the end, Alyssa almost died at his hands.


    By now, Deborah and Alyssa must both hate him to death.


    How could they possibly be willing if he asks Alyssa to take the risk of donating bone marrow again?


    Ashton was determined, “My daughter can’t donate bone marrow to me. Let’s try to find a suitable bone


    marrow


    match elsewhere. It we can’t find one, then so be it.”


    Even if he were to die, it would still be a well-deserved fate.


    The doctor looked at him with some disbeliet, “Mr. Mullen, how can you just let this go? This is about


    your life. At the very least, you can have your daughtere in for a check-up first.


    If it’s indeed a good match, and after checking your daughter’s physical condition turns out to be


    suitable, then it couldn’t be better.”


    Jett spoke up, “Doctor, about three years ago, Mr. Mullen’s daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. It


    was Mr. Mullen who donated bone marrow to his daughter, which cured her. In this situation, can his


    daughter still donate bone marrow?”


    The doctor responded, “In that case, it means that your bone marrow, Mr. Mullen, is a match for your


    daughter’s. This is great news.


    Your daughter’s leukemia has already been cured, which shows that she is now healthy. Moreover, it


    has been three

    years since then, and that’s quite a long time ago.”


    He then urged, “Mr. Mullen, if it’s convenient for you, I suggest you bring your daughter in for a physical


    examination as soon as possible. If there are no other issues, we should arrange for a bone marrow


    transnt promptly.”


    Ashton stood up, leaning on the table, “I said no. Look for another option, that child cannot donate bone


    marrow.”


    The doctor was quite helpless as he watched Ashton walk straight out of the office, leaving him no


    choice but to turn


    his attention to Jeff.


    “This is a serious matter, so please do your best to persuade Mr. Mullen. His condition can’t afford any


    dys.”


    Jetf knew Ashton’s personality well; once he made up his mind, it was difficult for others to change it


    easily.


    Jeff just nodded and followed Ashton outside.


    The only option left was to try and find a suitable bone marrow match. If they couldn’t find one, Jeff


    thought he would wait for some time and then secretly approach Deborah and Alyssa to discuss the


    matter without Ashton’s knowledge.


    Ashton picked up the medicine and didn’t stay in the hospital. He left immediately.


    When Jeff followed Ashton outside the clinic, he saw Ashton turn around and say, “I’ll drive myself


    back.”


    Jeff, feeling concerned, said, “Given your current situation, it’s not safe for you to drive by yourself.


    Maybe you should…”


    No sooner had his words fallen, than Ashton had already gotten into the car and driven away.


    Jeff sighed.


    Recalling the things Ashton had done in the past, did he really deserve to end up in the situation he’s in


    today?


    In the past, Deborah would always persuade and restrain him. Although he was reluctant, he still


    managed to control his smoking habit to some extent.


    In the past three years, smoking has be even more prevalent than eating, and no one can put a


    stop to it.


    To be honest, it’s quite surprising that someone who smokes so recklessly hasn’t gotten lung cancer


    yet.


    Ashton had originally nned to drive back to his residence, but he ended up feeling unwell and his


    mind became sluggish.


    The car came to a stop by the side of the road, and just across the street, there it was Jingron Design.


    He btedly realized that he had taken the wrong path.


    It seemed as if it wasn’t a mistake, but rather, my heart knew I needed to return to my residence, yet


    my mind had already nned the route to this ce.


    He looked across the street and saw Deborah, Steven, and Alyssa walking out together.
