Chapter 403
Even After Death
Avery let out a bitter smile. âLogically speaking, it is easy to find a donor from the large world
population. But itâs hard to look for a donor through the normal procedures.â
Olivia understood what she meant immediately. Peaceâs Embrace and Toxic Hive split ways because of
the difference in management ideology.
Only a minority of people were willing to donate their organs. That was why a lot of lowly people got
involved in human trafficking in the black market.
A righteous person like Avery would never want to receive an organ through illegal means.
âMr. Avery, would you like to have a crossmatch test with me before you leave?â
âOlivia, what do you mean?â
She smiled. âAs you said, I do think that weâre somehow destined to meet each other. My kidney might
be compatible with yours. If itâs a match, can I strike a deal with you?â
Avery frowned. âOlivia, what are you trying to do? You can just tell me. Iâll help you out if itâs something
within my jurisdiction.â
âWe can talk about that after we do the crossmatch test. Itâs alright. Every person has two kidneys. It
wonât hurt to lose one,
will it?â
She was suffering from a terminal illness anyway. It would be great if she could help others before
dying.
Still, everything in this world came with a price. Avery could do something for her in return.
He looked at her. Olivia was only 21 years old, but she acted like an old person. It pained him to see
her acting this way.
For a brief moment, he even thought of how fortunate it would be if she was his younger sister.
That way, he had the reasons to care for her and protect her.
âIs that alright with you, Mr. Avery?â Olivia reconfirmed his willingness.
He felt helpless by her persistence. âAlright, alright.â
Averyâs crossmatch test had failed multiple times, so he didnât believe that Olivia would be a compatible
donor.
To him, the request appeared to be a one-sided wish from her.
Once the result was out, it would burn her hope into ashes anyway.
Avery drove Olivia away from the castle. Olivia didnât care about the rest of the conversation between
Ethan and Leia.
In short, she had put an end to her feelings toward Ethan.
It was a loop.
Never once had he stood on her side in the face of either Marina or Leia,
So what if Olivia was aware that Ethan was set up and kept in the dark? He was the perpetrator in the
end.
Karma should come to his doorstep similar to what it did to Marina,
He didnât deserve a smidgen of pity from others.
Olivia and Avery did the crossmatch test overnight. After that, she stayed in the hospital. She stood
outside of the ICU, watching Chloe.
Olivia supposed that this was the only chance she could keep Chloe company.
She had called Chloe âMomâ for her whole life, yet she had to watch Chloe leave the world.
Olivia looked through the thick glass of the window. Chloe had her eyes shut tight as though she was in
a deep sleep.
At the break of the dawn, Olivia was still standing there.
When the sun rose, she saw Ethan.
He was wandering around with hurried steps. His worried expression faded as soon as he saw her.
âLiv.â His voice was hoarse because he had spent the night without sleep.
Compared to the storm of emotions in his eyes, she appeared rather calm-so calm that it gave one
goosebumps.
Olivia gazed at him indifferently. It was rare for her to see such an expression on his face. âYouâve
come.â
He walked up to her. âWhere did you and Avery go last night?â
âAs you can see, we came to the hospital. Mom doesnât have much time left. I want to keep her
company until her final moments.â
