Once Luke regained consciousness, he didnât talk about telling Vivian to leave for the time being.
As a matter of fact, he hadnât said a word since he woke up.
Obviously, he was upset about something.
They all looked at each other in silence.
Luckily, the doctor opened the door and came in, breaking the awkward tension in the room.
âWeâve found a suitable liver donor!â the doctor exclaimed.
It was a pleasant surprise.
Catherine could no longer contain her excitement. She sprang to her feet, thanking the doctor wholeheartedly.
âThank you so much, Doctor.And I want to thank the donor for being so kind!â
Tears were welling up in Catherineâs eyes as she held the doctorâs hands.
Ever since she lost her beloved daughter, Catherine had been having fears of abandonment. She had tossed and turned all night since the moment she found out that Luke might pass away.
âMrs. Turner, itâs our duty to save lives. You donât have to thank us.â
The doctor was accustomed to situations like this one, so he didnât appear surprised.
While wiping away her tears, Catherine asked, âIs the donor here at the hospital already? Iâd like to see this person and express my heartfelt gratitude.â
The doctor shook his head.
âSorry, but weâve promised the donor not to disclose their information.But thereâs no need to worry. The donor is in good health, and we can perform the surgery soon.â
âI really want to thank this kind donor in person.â
Catherine wanted to ask for more details about the mysterious donor, but the doctor wouldnât part with any. He just left to do the rounds.
The donor appeared at the perfect time.
Despite being grateful, Catherine believed that whoever it was, they might have wanted something in return.
She had seen a good part of the world and had lived a life long enough to understand human nature.It was highly improbable that anyone would donate their liver to Luke for nothing.
However, she didnât have the time to dwell on it too much.
Whatever the donorâs purpose was, it must have something to do with money.
The Turner family was rich anyway, and Catherine didnât mind giving the donor some money.She actually intended to give the donor a generous reward after the operation.
Though it was still winter, these past few days werenât that cold.
Perhaps it was because it was nearing spring, and the snow was slowly melting.
Signs of life, be it plant or critters, were showing up.
Natalie had been occupied designing the gowns for Laney and Garrett.
There was a measuring tape hung on her neck, and a pen in her hand as she attentively polished every detail of the gown.
Seemingly sensing that she was thirsty, Tasha handed her a cup of coffee.
âA little coffee break, maâam?â Natalie smiled, taking the cup of coffee from her hand.
After taking a sip and turning at a certain direction, she asked, âWhat do you think theyâre talking about? Theyâve been chattering all morning.â
âJust some needless gossip. The Turner Groupâs stock price is plummeting, and their CEO, Luke Turner, has been hospitalized due to liver problems.
Todayâs newspapers and articles on the Internet are reporting all about it.
Theyâre all saying that the Turner family is on the brink of ruin.âTasha heaved a sigh.
âThey used to be so glorious. They dominated half of the entertainment industry in Barnes, you know.â
Natalie wasnât that interested in this kind of topic, so saying a few remarks, she went back to work. Suddenly, the discussion between Dalores and the other designers became heated.
âThe Turner Group has been having bad luck for the past few years.Iâm guessing itâs because they offended Brandon Larson. Heâs a ruthless man, you know, though I suppose thatâs what it takes to get to where he is.â
Someone remarked, âI can tell that Mr.Larson is a good husband. He helped us through the crisis the other day, remember? Needless to say, he really loves Natalie.Sheâs so lucky to have a husband like him!â
Visibly displeased, Dalores shouted, âYou are not Natalie! How are you so sure that Brandon is a good husband? Perhaps Natalie is being abused every day at home. You know how rich men are; they love having mistresses around. Itâs highly possible that Brandon has been seeing a number of other women behind her back!â
Dalores had recently taken over many of Elizabethâs projects, and some of them offered generous commissions. Due to the confidence she earned from all the projects, she became more arrogant.She often talked down on other designers. She deliberately raised her voice when she made her ridiculous claims.
Clearly, she wanted Natalie to hear them.
Right after Dalores spoke, everyone glanced at Natalie.
Thereafter, Natalie put down her cup of coffee.
Her affable appearance and warmhearted presence usually made people think that she was harmless.
However, after knowing her for some time, all of the employees at W Marks Studio found out that even though Natalie wasnât a troublemaker, she wasnât someone that would let anyone push her around.
There was nobody who could take her on.She was just like her husband, Brandon Larson, in this aspect. N0v3l0Õ¹ When they saw Natalie approaching Dalores, everyone looked away and went back their own cubicles to get back to work.
As Dalores stared into Natalieâs eyes, she showed no sign of guilt for gossiping about the latterâs life behind her back. She even raised an eyebrow at Natalie and asked, âWhat can I do for you?â
Upon hearing that, Natalie became even more displeased.
If Sean were to see Natalie right now, heâd probably be stupefied.
