The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 840

The doctor emerged from the operation room.

Isaac instinctively rose to his feet, his gaze sweeping the vicinity with an icy sharpness.

"Mr. Salter, no need to worry. Grace has pulled through."

Isaac exhaled a sigh of relief, yet the doctor's solemn expression tugged his anxieties back into place. "Is there another problem?"

"Grace is currently out of immediate danger, but…" The doctor sighed deeply. "We conducted a full-body scan and found that Grace is suffering from severe exhaustion, with her kidneys particularly affected. Unless we find a suitable kidney donor, her condition could worsen…"

Kidneys!

Brittany's fist clenched reflexively. It was kidney failure that had taken her grandmother.

Now, Grace was facing the same battle.

"Alright, I understand."

Isaac's voice was hoarse as he discussed options with the doctor and arranged for Grace's admission.

Grace hadn't yet come to and was moved into the ICU.

Upon hearing of the kidney issue and the need for a family match, Manuel immediately found excuses, claiming exhaustion, and left the hospital.

Noel watched his retreating figure and spat bitterly, "Some son he is, huh? Asked him for a match, and off he sprints!"

Isaac massaged his temples, reaching out to Nathan to start a nationwide search for a matching kidney.

Both Isaac and Noel took compatibility tests that very night.

Brittany did as well.

She had wanted Daniel to be tested too.

But Isaac stopped her, "Daniel's too young, let's not involve him just yet."

They were adults; donating a kidney wouldn't greatly impact their health. However, Daniel was still a child, and any negative effects were too great a risk to take lightly. Unless absolutely necessary, Isaac wouldn't consider using Daniel's kidneys.

Wesley received the news and brought his whole family to get tested the next day, and Derek showed up as well.

Unfortunately, none were suitable matches.
