Tyrone closed his eyes and leaned against the couch. "Is there any news from the genetics laboratory? They still can't find a donor?"
Xylus shook his head. "No."
Tyrone's eyes snapped open with shock. "Didn't you say Jennifer was destined for greatness and could revive me from the dead? I only have eighteen months left!"
Xylus merely lowered his head in silence.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a white coat entered the room with a grave expression. He had a piece of paper in his hand. "Mr. Campbell, we have a major discovery!"
Tyrone merely slid a cold glance at him.
The middle-aged man continued, "We found a partially suitable donor!"
Tyrone's eyes brightened. He straightened his back and asked, "What do you mean by partially suitable donor?
Who is it?"
"It's your fiancee, Jennifer," the middle-aged man answered.
Tyrone was shocked. He exchanged glances with Xylus and caught the surprise in the latter's eyes.
"Continue." Tyrone quickly calmed himself down.
"We accidentally tested Ms. Wilson's DNA and concluded she is a suitable match as your donor. However, considering the difference in your genetic codes, there'll be a certain level of rejection. Even the slightest bit of rejection can be detrimental to your recovery," the middle-aged man explained.
"So?" Tyrone asked indifferently.
The man continued, "There's a way if you want a close match of genetic codes. You'll need to have a baby with Ms. Wilson, then take the baby's heart."
Xylus closed his eyes as a mix of emotions stirred within him.
It matches. Everything matches like a puzzle piece. Metaphysics is scary. From the first time I met Jennifer, I already knew she was someone that could help Tyrone overcome his crisis through the geomancy and metaphysics I learned throughout my life. However, I have no idea about the exact details of how she could've helped him. I finally got my answers now.
Tyrone was baffled. It was his first time experiencing the frightening part of metaphysics.
