The man snorted.
âThere are ten million patients waiting for heart transplants in this country, but fewer than 500 successful transplants are performed each year. The probability is less than 0.00005%. The rest either survive on heavy medication and treatment, or die while waiting. Miss Zeller, which option do you think you will get?â
Cynthia was rendered speechless.
âBut Iâm certain that no matter which one it is, it will end badly for you. You say you want to drag Rosalie to hell with you, but do you have the ability?â the man pressed.
His words were cruel, but it was the harsh reality Cynthia had to admit he was right.
She retorted hoarsely, âTheo will help me. He definitely willâ¦â
âSo what if he helps you?â the man interrupted. âIn this world, no matter how wealthy or powerful someone is, he must face death. When youâre terminally ill, money just makes dying a bit more comfortable. No one can stop death. Money can only delay it a bit. Youâll only get to live a few more years at best, Miss Zeller. Itâs truly a pity.â
âI wonât dié so soon!â Cynthia retorted angrily. âDonât try to scare me!â
âIâm scaring you? Let me tell you another thing. Theodore Spencer is so wealthy, it wouldnât be difficult for him to find a way to buy a heart. He might only need to make a few calls, but why hasnât he done it?
seems he doesnât care about you as much as you think.â
Cynthiaâs eyes widened. âDonât try to create a rift between us! Theo

will be visiting me in a while. If he sees you, he wonât let you off!â
âIn that case, you wouldnât survive,â the man said indifferently. âYouâd better pray he doesnât show up all of a sudden.â
Frowning, Cynthia demanded, âAre you threatening me? Who the hell are you?â
âIâm not threatening you,â the man replied coldly. âI think your misunderstood. I mean, if Theodore comes, I have to leave, then I canât help you. Youâll surely die then.â
âHowâ¦how can you help me?â Cynthia looked at him suspiciously. This man felt really dangerous.
The man approached her, and said softly, âI can help you find a -suitable heart. A strong one, thatâs a match for you.â
Cynthia was stunned. âWhat did you say?â
She couldnât believe it.
âYou show up out of nowhere, and say youâll find me a healthy heart. I wonât believe your nonsense!â
She wasnât a threeâyearâold toddler! As if she would believe just any strangerâs words! If she were that naive, she wouldnât have survived until now.
âYou can choose not to believe me, but you canât deny that when two people have mutual interests, they can help each other. I donât want you to die because youâre useful.â
Cynthia narrowed her eyes, trying to see if he was lying through his gaze, but it was unfathomable. His eyes were deep and dark, and they were intimidating.
âWhy do you think Iâm useful? Are you Theoâs enemy?â she asked.
The man patted her hand.

Cynthia looked down; he was wearing black gloves. She didnât pull her hand back.
âMiss Zeller, what do you think is more importantâTheodore Spencer, or your life? If you think heâs more important, I can leave now, and we can pretend we never met. If you think your life is more important, I can assure you that within a week, Iâll get you a matching heart. The condition is, weâll be friends from now on,â said the man.
