Chapter 447 Do Your Best in Finding One Caroline glanced at the operating theater after ending the call. An uneasy feeling gnawed at her chest as if something terrible would happen. She battled the sense of suffocation, wondering. ‘Am I just too nervous?’

Taking slow, deep breaths, she waited for Lily.

The minutes ticked by, stretching into what felt like hours.

Finally, Scott hurried over to her. He approached swiftly as soon as he spotted Caroline. She looked up, greeted him, and rose from her seat. “You’re here,” she said.

Scott handed her a cup of her favorite flat white coffee. “This should help you relax,” he said “Thank you,” Caroline replied, accepting the coffee. They sat together, glancing nervously at the illuminated sign above the operating theater Scott asked. “How much time has passed?”

Caroline checked her watch. “Almost 20 minutes.”

Scott reassured her, “Craniotomies take time. Evan’s team consists of specialists from abroad.

Everything will be okay.”

Caroline tried to ease her anxiety but still felt uneasy. “I’m probably overthinking it.”

Scott comforted her, “It’s natural to feel this way when someone close is undergoing surgery.”

Downstairs, Richie emerged from the emergency cy room Evan and Alex rushed forward, eager for an update.

“How’s he doing?” Evan asked, his tone icy Richie hesitated, then disclosed, “Mr. Jordan, his condition is quite serious. We need to conduct further examinations”

Evan’s anger flared. Tell us the truth!”

Richie hesitated again before delivering the grim news. “The preliminary diagnosis is acute “Leukemia?” Alex exclaimed Evan’s world seemed to spin as he processed the devastating diagnosis. ‘Acute leukemia?”

Richie sighed, recognizing the distress in Evan’s expression. “It appears Mr. Jordan Jr. has been experiencing symptoms for some time. Have you noticed his nosebleeds, body aches, low spirits, and reduced appetite?”

Evan was stunned. I… I think so. I did notice he was moving slowly.”

Richie spoke in a blaming tone. “He can’t walk fast when his body aches.”

Evan felt a crushing weight on his chest. He had never witnessed Axel’s nosebleeds or realized how long his son had suffered. He had assumed Axel’s symptoms were due to his longing to see Caroline.

Evan’s eyes reddened. ‘How could I have been so blind to my own son’s pain?

Alex could see the answer written on Evan’s face. He turned to Richie and urged, “Please conduct the necessary tests promptly and initiate treatment.”

Richie explained, “There’s a 60% chance that a bone marrow transplant for stem cell production will be required”

“Find a donor then! Locate a suitable one as quickly as possible, regardless of the cost!” Evan demanded, his anger boiling over.

Richie began. “Mr. Jordan, the suitable donor-”

“Enough with excuses! Just do your best to find one!” Alex interrupted firmly.

Daniella was hidden in the corner of the emergency room and had overheard their conversation.

She had already dispatched Hector, or rather Casey, to search for a donor. Now, she saw an opportunity to get closer to Evan under the pretext of the bone marrow donation.

She tucked her hair behind her ear with a smug smile, wondering if Evan had noticed her earlier performance.
