A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 701

"It's nothing.” Vivian shook her head. It's all thanks to Finnick that Evelyn would donate her bone marrow to Rachel. If not for him, I'm sure Evelyn would've never agreed to it.

Soon, Evelyn was pushed out of the operating theater, and Rachel's operation begun.

"F-Finnick," Evelyn whispered weakly as she reached out to him. Evidently, she wanted Finnick to hold her hand.

The nurse beside her felt perplexed as she looked at Evelyn's weak state. Although the donor would be weak after withdrawing bone marrow, they would not be weak to the point they could barely speak.

When Finnick turned to see Evelyn's outstretched hand, several emotions flashed past his eyes.

Instead of responding to her, he said to the nurse at the side, "Send her to her ward to rest."

"No need!" Evelyn blurted out. Then, she realized that she needed to keep up her act, so she deliberately coughed softly and continued, "N-No need. I'll wait for Mom to come out of her surgery. That way... That way, I'll feel reassured."

"Sure." With that said, Finnick turned his attention to Vivian instead. He consoled, "Don't feel nervous. The surgeon is a well-known doctor in this field. Nothing will happen."

"Really?" Despite his reassurances, Vivian was still worried.

"Yes." Finnick held her hands. "He's been researching about this for dozens of years. There are many patients he has saved from this, so nothing will go wrong."

"Okay." Nodding to him, Vivian finally relaxed a little. As she stared at the doors of the operating theater, she prayed that the surgery would go well.
