The doctor immediately called for medical help.
A total of 3800 mlâ¦
It was astonishing that he had managed to endure for so long!
Erick was relieved knowing Raegan was safe, but he felt a weight in his chest seeing Mitchel rush to another operating room for urgent care.
His emotions were deeply conflicted.
What Mitchel had done went beyond what even a close family member would typically do.
Certainly, if his blood type had matched, he wouldâve donated without a second thought, even if it meant giving all he had.
He had promised Casey to always look after Raegan and never break his word.
Mitchel had now upheld a similar vow.
Erick sincerely hoped that Mitchel would make it.
He didnât want anything bad to happen to Mitchel.
Otherwise, he wouldnât know how to face Raegan.
Erick knew behind Raeganâs cold exterior was just a cover for her insecurity.
She feared falling again, which made her act cold toward Mitchel.
But now, Mitchel had shown through his actions that he was someone deserving of trust.
Erick turned to Stefan and said, âStefan, youâre my dear pal, butâ¦â
He paused and then added, âIf Mitchel makes it, I hope you can⦠step aside.
â
It wasnât easy for Erick to bring himself to say so, but he felt it necessary.
It wasnât that Stefan was lacking.
Erick was sure that if Stefan had the same blood type, he would have given it to Raegan without a second thought due to his love for her.
Erick was certain Stefan would do the same for him.
But when it came to matters of love, it was not about who came first or who was superior.
From an outside perspective, Erick could see that Raeganâs heart wasnât as icy toward Mitchel as it seemed at first glance.
He hoped they would resolve their misunderstandings.
After all, wouldnât it be better for them to be together without wasting more time?
Erick told Stefan, âI know Raegan well.
I donât want to keep them apart any longer.
â
Stefan experienced a twinge of sadness, yet he could recognize the sincerity in Erickâs words.
Sometimes, people just deceived themselves.
With heartfelt emotion, he responded, âI understand you, Erick.
â
Raegan felt as if she had been sleeping for ages.
In her dreams, someone encouraged her, calling out and urging her not to give up.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Erick sitting by her bedside, his eyes filled with tears.
She naturally assumed he was the one who had been calling her.
âErickâ¦â she faltered.
The overwhelming weakness in her body and his somber expression made her suspect that she had survived a grave crisis.
âYouâre awake!â Erick exclaimed happily.
âDo you feel any discomfort?â
Raegan shook her head.
Apart from feeling extremely weak and drained, she felt alright.
âThatâs good to hear,â Erick said.
âAre you hungry? Would you Like something to eat? The doctor mentioned you could have something light.
â
Raegan shook her head again.
âIâm not really hungry yet.
Howâre the babies? Are they okay?â
âThey are doing great,â Erick reassured her.
He didnât want her to worry and continued, âYou donât need to be concerned.
You delivered a bit early, just over ten days, but the doctor confirmed it was a full-term pregnancy.
The babies are fine, no issues at all.
Weâve checked.
Iâll have someone bring the babies to you soon.
â
Raegan felt a wave of relief upon hearing this.
Just then, Stefan entered to see Raegan.
