Chapter 651
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 651
Corinne was completely speechless. The absurdity of the situation gnawed at her bones like a bitingly
cold wind. The image of Lilin sobbing her heart out while she was waiting for her mother to come out of
the emergency ward appeared in her mind, causing her to take a deep breath and say, Ć¢ĀĀOkay, I
promise you.Ć¢ĀĀ.
Lucas let out another satisfied smile. Ć¢ĀĀYour resolve impresses me, Miss Corinne. I trust that I have your
word. LetĆ¢ĀĀs go.Ć¢ĀĀ
Corinne nodded, turned around, and headed straight to the elevator. Lucas followed her into the
elevator and just like that the two of them made their way down to the blood collection room. It was
eerily quiet in the elevator as there were only two of them inside.
Lucas thought he should say something to break the silence so he casually asked, Ć¢ĀĀAre you friends
with the car crash victim.Ć¢ĀĀ
Ć¢ĀĀNope. I donĆ¢ĀĀt even know who she is,Ć¢ĀĀ replied Corinne emotionlessly.
This surprised Lucas very much. He looked at her in disbelief. Ć¢ĀĀYou donĆ¢ĀĀt know who the car crash victim
is? Did you seriously agree to get rid of your baby just to save a stranger?Ć¢ĀĀ
Corinne glanced at him. Ć¢ĀĀShe has a daughter about five or six years old. My heart breaks just thinking
about all the hardships she has to go through if she loses her mother at such a young age. Thus, IĆ¢ĀĀm
willing to do whatever I can to help her.Ć¢ĀĀ
Her words struck a sympathetic chord in LucasĆ¢ĀĀs cold, cold heart. He started to think about Luna, who
until now he still had no idea whether was dead or alive. I wonder if mom is still alive? I hope she is for
LunaĆ¢ĀĀs sake
It was a long while before Lucas regained his senses. Before this, he never believed anyone would be
kind enough to save a stranger. He thought all the news reports about kind people doing kind things for
others were fake.
Ć¢ĀĀMister Lucas, what are you still standing there for? DonĆ¢ĀĀt tell me you regret your decision to donate
blood?Ć¢ĀĀ asked Corinne with a frown when she noticed Lucas did not follow her out of the elevator.
The question pulled Lucas out of his reverie. He noticed the elevator door was wide open, prompting
him. to quickly step out.
Ć¢ĀĀNo, I donĆ¢ĀĀt regret my decision. IĆ¢ĀĀm the type who always makes good on his promises.Ć¢ĀĀ
Ć¢ĀĀGood to hear that.Ć¢ĀĀ
In the blood collection room.
The nurse did not expect Corinne to have found a blood donor so quickly and a handsome one at that.
She was so stunned by LucasĆ¢ĀĀs good looks that she lost her mind for a few seconds. Trying to hide her
embarrassment, she quickly put on a stern expression and matter-of-factly drew some blood from
LucasĆ¢ĀĀs finger so that she could check whether his blood was compatible with LilinĆ¢ĀĀs mother.
The blood test result soon came out and the nurse reported, Ć¢ĀĀYour blood type is Rh-negative which
means we can use your blood for the transfusion.Ć¢ĀĀ
Lucas gracefully rolled up his sleeves and presented his arm to the nurse. This was the first time the
nurse was ever so close to a good-looking man like Lucas so she found it hard to reign in her desire to
throw herself at him. After inserting the needle, she forced herself to turn away from him so that she
would not have to see his dashingly handsome face.
Ć¢ĀĀMiss Corinne, the hospital would like to thank you for helping us look for an Rh-negative blood donor.
If it werenĆ¢ĀĀt for you, we wouldnĆ¢ĀĀt have found one so quickly since this blood type is very rare. Thanks to
you, this little girlĆ¢ĀĀs mother now has a fighting chance of surviving.Ć¢ĀĀ
Corinne shook her head. Ć¢ĀĀYou donĆ¢ĀĀt need to thank me. IĆ¢ĀĀm just glad to be of help.Ć¢ĀĀ
Lilin started crying again when she heard what the nurse said, but this time, it was out of happiness
and gratitude. After wiping her tears away, she clasped CorinneĆ¢ĀĀs hands and said gratefully, Ć¢ĀĀThank
you, Miss. Thank you for saving my mommyĆ¢ĀĀs life.Ć¢ĀĀ
Corinne looked at her and said, Ć¢ĀĀDonĆ¢ĀĀt thank me. Thank that man instead.Ć¢ĀĀ
Lilin nodded and turned to look at Lucas. Ć¢ĀĀThank you, Mister, for donating your blood to my mommy. I
promise to repay you one day.Ć¢ĀĀ
Ć¢ĀĀYou donĆ¢ĀĀt have to repay me. You can, however, repay the lady that brought me to you,Ć¢ĀĀ said Lucas
indifferently.
After a while, the blood bag became full and the nurse hurriedly brought it to the emergency ward.
Lucas threw the cotton ball into the trash can, gracefully rolled his sleeves back down, and stood up
from the chair. Suddenly, a wave of dizziness came over him.
Ć¢ĀĀIf a perfectly healthy man like me gets dizzy from donating some blood then surely the effect would be
ten times worse for a pregnant woman like Corinne?Ć¢ĀĀ he thought with a frown.
He turned to look at her and asked curiously, Ć¢ĀĀWhy do you insist on donating blood when youĆ¢ĀĀre
pregnant? ArenĆ¢ĀĀt you worried somethingĆ¢ĀĀs going to happen to you or the baby?
