After listening to Evelyn's explanation, Rachel couldn't stop smiling. She was touched that Evelyn cared about her very much.
Evelyn murmured a response and quickly left the ward in her wheelchair. She didn't even notice the smile of happiness on Rachel's face.
As soon as she exited the ward, Evelyn took a deep breath and stopped hiding her repugnance for Rachel. I will never acknowledge her as my mom for the rest of my life! I would rather die than live in shame because of her!
Miles away, Vivian's phone suddenly rang when she was working. She grabbed her phone and noticed that it was her mom's call.
Vivian hastily answered the call. Given that Rachel hadn't given her a call for a long time, she thought that Rachel had met with some emergencies.
"Vivian, did you look for Evelyn? She came to see me today," Rachel said excitedly over the phone, "Besides, she agreed to donate her bone marrow to me! Thank you very much!"
"Really?" Vivian asked nervously. Why would Evelyn be so kind-hearted all of a sudden?
"Yes, it's true. She's in the hospital now to undergo the relevant check-up," Rachel continued smilingly.
In that case, she isn't giving mom an empty promise. Vivian was rather shocked. Well, was she moved by what I said?
"I'm coming to the hospital now to visit you. We'll talk later. I'll call you again when I arrive." As Vivian found it hard to believe, she decided to check it out by herself in the hospital.
"Okay, I'll wait for your call,” Rachel was still on cloud nine after hanging up the phone.
Vivian grabbed her bag and trotted downstairs.
Then, she drove toward the hospital where Rachel was admitted to.
When Vivian arrived at Rachel's ward, there was no one in it. She called Rachel and was told that both of them were undergoing relevant medical check-ups in another room.
She immediately asked for the location and ran toward the examination room. Finally, she saw Rachel and Evelyn inside.
"How is it?" Vivian asked while panting.
