“He is suffering from Thalassemia and has been sent abroad for treatment. However, the doctor said that the best method is a marrow transplant. My parents’ blood is not suitable, and both Ralph’s and my blood are incompatible too.”
“What about mine?” Natalie’s eyes dimmed, “My bone marrow has been transplanted before.”
“Yours is not suitable either,” Jasper Milton looked at her and said.
Natalie Wheeler had a feeling of emptiness in her mind, and the sea breeze blew on her face, which made her feel sadder.
In her life, the pain had always outweighed her happiness, and bad times had always outnumbered the good times.
Nothing good ever happened to her.
Could it be that she had done too many evil things in her previous life and karma had come upon her own child?
A strange look flashed across Jasper’s face, “If we want to save him, we’d better give birth to another child.”
Natalie looked up at Jasper calmly.
Her eyes were too calm and emotionless.
Jasper gritted his teeth, sneered, and said sarcastically, “Of course, I won’t force you if you don’t want to save him. Maybe I can find someone who matches Dante’s blood in a few years. You may leave now.”
“It’s very difficult for me to conceive a baby.”
“You don’t have to explain. It’s up to you whether you want to save him or not. Anyway, the child has nothing to do with you. You’ve never thought of acknowledging him anyway,” Jasper said fiercely. He then turned around and closed the door.
There was a loud bang.
Natalie stood firmly outside the door. There was a pain in her heart that was spreading through her body slowly. The pain was so great that her whole body was numb and she stayed rooted in the same spot for a while.
She had been looking for her own child for a long time. She pursued to find him even with the tiniest rumor.
As soon as she woke up, the first thing she did was to make sure that Jasper was safe. When she knew that her child was still alive, she cried excitedly.
She had been in a coma for a long time, and it hurt greatly to be on constant medication. She was better off dead.
She knew that the reason she did this was not that she wanted to see Jasper, but because she had decided not to drag Jasper down from the moment she jumped into the sea. She just wanted to see her child and take care of him.
Now, she was a cold-blooded mother in Jasper’s eyes.
How could she refuse to save him? It was just…
She walked to the door and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a few seconds, there was no response from the door. Once the dog barked, the door opened.
Jasper looked at her icily.
“I don’t know if the next child will be able to save Dante, so it’s better not to give up looking for a match,” Natalie said.
Jasper understood what she meant. With a cold face, he said in a low voice, “Come in.”
Natalie entered the house with the dog in her arms. There was a bed, a sofa, a TV, a computer, a water dispenser and a treadmill in the house.
“How did you get here? I didn’t see a boat outside,” Natalie asked in confusion.
“By plane,” Jasper said briefly. He sat down on the sofa and motioned her to sit on the sofa across him.
Natalie sat down with the dog in her arms.
“When you are free, go to the hospital to get a check up first and confirm your day of ovulation,” Jasper said in a low voice.
“I am free all the time.”
Jasper looked at her faintly, “For me, giving birth to a child with you is just to save my son’s life. There is no affection between us. After you give birth to a child, the child is also mine and he or she will have nothing to do with you too. Do you agree?”
Natalie nodded and said, “I also believe that it’s better for the child to follow you than to follow me.”
Jasper’s eyes flashed with hatred and disgust, “How much do you need as compensation?”
Although she knew that he was humiliating her on purpose to make her felt upset, it still hurt her feelings, “I have money. Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Milton. I don’t need it.”
“I don’t know what you need. Family affection, friendship or love? You can watch Wilson die, send Eli away, and break off your past love with such determination. You don’t need anything. Are you a monster? Even a monster won’t be as cold-blooded as you, right?” Jasper said sarcastically.
Natalie raised her chin and looked at him, trying hard to hold back her tears.
She was not afraid of rumors. She did not care about the cruel whispers of others, and she did not care about life and death.
Only Jasper’s words could hit her soul.
Perhaps she really was a monster. She was destined to be lonely. The people around her, the people who loved her, and the people she loved, none of them had a good ending.
“Mr. Milton, you are not me. Of course, you don’t know what I need and you certainly do not need to know,” Natalie said indifferently.
“Before I met you, I had never regretted anything. After I met you, I felt very regretful for everything that I had done,” Jasper said sharply.
Did he regret everything he had done?
Natalie’s fortitude was smashed into pieces by him.
She knew that if she continued to stay, she would only show her weakness and break down into tears.
There was no need to show these again.
She lowered her eyes, stood up, and said coldly, “I’ll go to the hospital for a check-up today, and I’ll inform you when I get the result.”
She couldn’t wait to turn around, and her tears dropped out of her eyes uncontrollably and fell on the dog.
Perhaps the dog could also feel the pain of its owner, so it barked.
Natalie patted the dog and got on the yacht quickly. She got into the wheelhouse, put down the dog, and started to operate the computer.
Jasper said that she was a monster!
After he knew her, he regretted everything that he had done!
Yeah, ever since he knew her, it seemed that there was nothing good ever happened.
Even though she had tried hard and struggled, there was nothing good in the end.
Now, even her child had fallen sick.
When Dante was alive, she did not fulfill her duty as a mother. If he died, she would not let him die lonely. Perhaps, after her death, she could take good care of her child.
Natalie’s face was full of tears. She had set the location for the return trip. When the alarm rang on the screen, she realized that the ladder had not been withdrawn.
She pressed the button, and the ladder withdrew automatically. The yacht started and the return journey began.
She stood at the window of the wheelhouse and looked at the house.
Jasper didn’t come out. It was desolate, as if the house was unoccupied, just like how he no longer had her in his heart.
Natalie was crying quietly, looking up at the blue sky.
Was the fate of a person destined?
A person was destined to be rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad.
If it was predestined, why did she have this kind of fate? She had never hurt anyone…
Natalie was too sad. She squatted on the ground, curled up her body and her tears fell on the floor violently.
“Woof, woof, woof,” the dog barked at her.
Natalie sat on the ground, held the dog in her arms, and said with tears, “Jasper, you will be happy in the future without me. I’ll be contented as long as you are happy.”
