“Tell me, why are you helping me when I don’t even know you? Is this a trick? Don’t think that I’m that stupid!”
Jorge glared at the man in black, throwing the card key to the ground.
The downpour of rain grew heavier as they confronted each other.
The man in black didn’t seem to care that the card key was being washed away by the rain.
“Do you know why Brandon is after you? It’s because you stole the designs from your girlfriend and it got Natalie
into trouble.He’s simply trying to avenge his woman!”
He then turned around and walked away.
“You’re a ridiculously ungrateful man.Brandon is practically a god within Barnes.You’re gonna get caught in two
days. ɳσʋҽʅσȥ.ƈσɱ And by the time he finds you, you’re going to be in a much more miserable situation than you
are now.”
Having heard his remark, Jorge trembled in fear.He then wiped away the water stains on his face, silently picked up
the card key from the ground, and held it like his life depended on it.
Though he knew that this man must have some hidden agenda, the situation was dire and there was no better

“Fine.I’m heading to the hotel.”
Jorge seemed to have lost all his strength when he said those words.He then walked into a dark alley and
disappeared into the rainy night.
Once the man in black was certain that Jorge was gone, he walked toward a roofed area and made a phone call.
A woman’s soothing voice was heard over the phone.
“How did it go?”
“I found Jorge.He has gone to the hotel with the card key I gave him.”
The man in black looked at the empty alley and grinned.
In Barnes hospital.
Vivian was lying on a hospital bed. her face was a little pale.
When she heard what the man said over the phone, a faint smile appeared on her l*ps.
“Great.”
Her next step was to make good use of Jorge.
Vivian hung up the call.
Right now, she was in the VIP ward.
The facilities were better than ordinary ones, and the doctors and nurse treated her quite well.
At this moment, a nurse entered the ward.lt was time to change the dressing.
“How are you today, Miss Cooper? Do you feel any better?” the nurse asked Vivian with concern.
With a faint smile, Vivian slowly sat up and answered, “I feel so much better now.”
Without further ado, she unb**toned her clothes, revealing a long, gauze on her right upper abdomen.
The nurse carefully removed the old dressing and cleaned Vivian’s wound with a cotton swab dipped in iodine.
“Since you had just undergone the surgery, you should eat a lot of nutritious food to help you recover faster.And
when you get discharged, you should rest until the wound heals.You can’t do any strenuous exercises just yet,” the
nurse advised while changing the dressing.
She then tidied Vivian’s clothes and added, “It’s so good to be young.With your age, you’ll quickly recover.l’m sure
you will be discharged from the hospital soon.”
Vivian just smiled and did not say anything anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA few moments later, the nurse finished what she was supposed to do.But before she left, she decided to ask Vivian
a question she had been dying to know.
“Are you perhaps related with Mr.Turner? It’s just that your blood type is very rare.I’m in awe.You’re still young, yet
you’re willing to donate a part of your liver to him.”
Donating an organ was not a small thing.
Vivian smiled and pulled up the quilt until it covered herself.
Without a word, she looked out of the window.
The rain had lessened, and the whole city seemed to have been washed by the rain.
“No. The truth is, I was an orphan sponsored by Mr.Turner’s daughter. She’s gone now. And since her father needs
help, I believe that it’s only right for me to repay her kindness by doing this for her father.”
“Oh, I see,” the nurse uttered, taken aback.
She was silent for a few seconds and looked at Vivian with respect.
To somehow ease the awkward silence, she sorted out the tools in the tray and said, “There aren’t many people like
you who know how to be grateful. But just so you know, the Turner family is also lucky to meet a girl as kind-
hearted as you.”
