CHAPTER 102
Winning Her Heart Back
Chapter 102 Donât Hate Me
Emelle performed CPR on Greta continuously for five minutes and finally saw her frown slightly.
Emelle immediately leaned down to listen to her heartbeat and found that it had returned, and she was breathing again.
Overjoyed, she called out urgently, âMom! Mom!â
Greta didnât wake up, so Emelle continued to perform CPR on her.
Shortly after, the ambulance arrived outside the alloy.
The paramedics lifted Greta onto a stretcher and rushed her to the hospital.
She was taken directly to the emergency room. Emelie and Ronan were blocked from entering
The sudden turn of events left Ronan weak in the legs. He sat down on the ground with a worried expression.
Compared to him, Emelie was much calmer. She walked over to Ronan and paused before helping him to a chair.
Then, she headed to a vending machine, bought two bottles of water, and offered one to him.
Ronan didnât drink it. He just held it tightly in his hand, but he seemed to have calmed down.
Emelie asked directly, âWhatâs wrong with Mom? Is it a heart problem?
Roman closed his eyes and sighed deeply. âYes, it was diagnosed six months ago.
âThe doctor said it was too late to treat, and the only option now is to have heart transplant surgery.â
It was already too severe.
Emelie felt her throat become parched and sore.
She opened the bottle of mineral water and drank half of it before sitting down on the chair in silence.
Ronan glanced at her several times. He wanted to say something but hesitated
Emelie was only concerned about Greta in the operating room at the moment and didnât want to say anything more.
After two hours of silence, the doors to the operating room swung open. Emelie hurried forward. âDoctor, howâs my
y mom?
The doctor said, âThereâs no longer an imminent danger. But Mr. Hoven, as weâve told you before, the patient needs to undergo heart transplant surgery.
âWe canât guarantee that sheâll survive the next cardiac arrest.â
Ronan parted his lips but couldnât speak.
He also wanted to save Greta, but the surgery y cost was like a mountain weighing on his back.
Emelie looked at him before turning to the doctor. âHow much does such a surgery cost?â
âThe surgery, along with some consumables, will cost about 15 million dollars.â
Emelle felt a slight relief. She had that amount in her savings and could afford the surgery.
We can afford the surgery. When can it be scheduled?â Emelie asked.
The doctor looked at her. âYouâre the patientâs
âDaughter.â
Noticing that Emelie was the one with the authority to make decisions, the doctor tumed to her. âWe canât do it now.
âThe most difficult part of this surgery is finding a donor. The only legal way to obtain a donor is through the
e matching database. The hearts in the database were all voluntarily donated by deceased individuals.
âItâs very difficult to find a match. Some patients donât even get a suitable heart until they pass away.
âFor now, all you can do is wait. Thereâs no other shortcut.â
Emelie frowned.
The doctor continued, âThe patientâs information has already been registered in the database.
âIf a suitable donor appears, the platform will contact Mr. Hoven immediately.â
Emele shook her head. âContact me.â
âYou can go with the nurse to update the information.â The doctor reiterated, âThe patient
it can only take medication to control the condition
for now.

âRemember, she must not get emotionally excited or overworked.â
Emelie understood. âThank you, doctor.â
Greta woke up in the evening.
Emelie sat by her bedside. The orange sunset outside the window outlined her profile.
Gretaâs breathing was rapid, and the oxygen mask was covered with a layer of mist. âEm⦠Emelieâ¦â
||
Emelie immediately held her hand, leaned over to her, and whispered, âThe doctor said you mustnât get worked up now. Take it easy.â
I heard your voice. I thought I heard wrongly.â Tears fell from Gretaâs eyes and slid into her slightly gray hair.
Emelie remembered that when she left home, Greta didnât have gray hair.
Greta probably heard her voice when her heartbeat returned.
âWhy didnât you tell me you were sick? I didnât change my phone number.â
Emelie adjusted the blanket. Greta, who was in her hospital gown, looked much thinner.
Greta shook her head. She held Emelieâs hand tightly with a painful expression.
âHow could I tell you? Weâve wronged youâ¦.
âEmelie, we had no choice back then. We were desperate and had to agree to their demands. âWe know we were wrong. Iâm sorry⦠Donât hate me. Please donât hate me..â
