Chapter 410

Standing at the door, Olivia saw all this before she even entered. A mocking look flashed across her

eyes. She couldn’t believe the sort of family her mom had married into.

Other than Chris, no one sincerely cared for Chloe.

In the past, Chloe did her best to please Otto, but Otto never thought of her as family.

In the end, the person who suffered the most was Chris. If he had to exchange Marina’s life for Chloe’s,

Chloe wouldn’t forgive him when she woke up.

Moreover, he had raised Marina as well. He had treated her like his biological daughter since she was

young.

He couldn’t possibly make the choice.

No matter who he chose, he would lose. He wouldn’t recover from it.

A nurse ran over to them. “You’re the family members of the patient, right? She has woken up, and she

wants to see you.”

Chris whipped his head around and then followed the nurse out. Olivia went after them as well.

The doctor was standing at the entrance. “According to the patient’s wishes, she wants to be

transferred out of the ICU. She wants to spend the rest of her time with you.

“Of course, you have the right to decide whether we should follow her wishes.”

If she was in the ICU, no one could visit her. Also, every emergency rescue would cause strain on her

body. She would suffer a lot if she remained there.

Moreover, people who were rescued in this manner couldn’t stay alive for long either.

Chris looked at Olivia. Supporting the man whose face was full of agony, Olivia said, “Just do as she

wishes.”

Chloe didn’t have much time left. Olivia wanted her to at least leave peacefully.

When Chloe was brought out, she had visibly shrunken in a short amount of time. Her face was only

the size of a palm.

Even in her sickly state, she smiled as she gazed at the two.

“Honey, you’ve suffered so much.”

“Mom.”

When Olivia saw Chloe like this, her heart was saddened as well. The grudges from the disappeared

Chloe was seriously ill, and she still didn’t know what had happened to Marina. She glanced around

instinctively. “Where’s Marina? Is she still mad at me?”

She didn’t realize that she was Marina’s biological mother. But all these years, she had loved Marina

with the love of a mother.

Chris didn’t want to upset her even more, so he had no choice but to lie to her.

“She’ll be here soon. Don’t worry. What do you want to eat? I’ll get someone to buy it for you. Look how

thin you’ve gotten.”

Chloe smiled. “I’ll eat anything as long as it’s something you made. Darling, can you take me home? I

don’t want to die alone in the hospital.”

At the mention of death, the atmosphere turned grave again.

Their eyes grew red. They knew that she was speaking the truth, but they couldn’t retort at all. They

couldn’t even utter a word of comfort.

But Chloe didn’t seem to mind. “Help me with the discharge procedures. Let’s have a meal at home as

a family, alright?”

She only had less than two days to live.

Chris hastily nodded. “Sure. I’ll do everything you want.”

While Chris was dealing with the procedures, Chloe took Olivia’s hand. She apologized softly, “Liv, I’m

so sorry. I wanted to wait until I got better to make it up to you.

“But alas, that day will never come. I didn’t take good care of you all these years. It’s my fault.”

Olivia said, “Mom, I don’t blame you anymore. I seriously don’t. You’ll be fine.”

“Silly child, I know my body best. I don’t have much time left.”

Gripping Chloe’s hand, Olivia answered, “We found someone whose bone marrow matches she’s

severely injured.

yours.

But

“If you don’t mind, we can arrange a marrow transplant operation for you right away.”

Chloe said, “You said that she’s severely injured. Are you thinking of exchanging one life for another?

Liv, I’d rather throw away mine.”

Olivia sighed, lamenting the cruelty of fate. The antidote was right in front of Chloe, but she couldn’t

use it.
