I let out a sigh. “I just thought of it and have yet to tell him anything.”

“There’s no need to rush. You should bring it up when everything else has stabilized.”

It was November in K City, and the temperature had dropped lower than usual. It felt like it was about to

start snowing.

I was discharged after a few days of rest in the hospital. Meanwhile, Summer had to undergo

chemotherapy. After her first session, she had lost quite a bit of weight. Her organs were affected by her

illness to the extent that she had lost her appetite completely and didn’t feel like eating anything.

Zachary got some experts from overseas to discuss with the top specialist to come up with the best

treatment plan for Summer. Ashton was listening intently. He had been busy at work, probably dealing

with Murphy Corporation’s move on Fuller Corporation.

“The most prominent damage is on the patient’s kidney. Even if we manage to get a suitable bone

marrow donor, she would not be able to fully recover, as she needs a kidney transplant as well,” the

doctor explained with a dull expression.

Another doctor added, “Unfortunately, these two organs are difficult to find. Every year, many patients do

not make it till they get a donor. Hence, I suggest that Summer continues with the existing treatment.”

My heart broke upon hearing that news. Cameron pulled me out and consoled, “My dear, you’re currently

pregnant. It’s not good for you to get too emotional. Don’t worry. I’ve got an idea to resolve Summer’s

issue.”

I knew she was trying to comfort me. I recalled that Renee also had leukemia. Since she could not find a

suitable donor, Sasha’s mother decided to stop the treatment and brought Renee to complete her bucket

list.

I did not wish to do the same for Summer. That was just too cruel.

However, I had no clue what to do. It seemed like we were stuck in a corner.

After the discussion ended, Cameron and Zachary stayed to take care of Summer while Ashton brought

me to the office. He was worried that I might overthink if I stayed at the hospital.

I had been zoning out frequently, thinking about Summer’s condition. Ashton was worried, so he had

been bringing me around with him everywhere.

At the lobby, a lady welcomed us with a bright smile. “Mr. and Mrs. Fuller, these dried mangoes are pretty

sweet. Please try some.”

I could not remember her identity while Ashton looked at me and asked, “Do you like these?”

I shook my head.

“Mrs. Fuller, you’ve got to try it first!” The lady passed a piece to me. I stared at her blankly and

eventually tasted it.

As she looked at me expectantly, I recalled that she was Stella. I had forgotten as I had too much on my

mind.

“How is it? Is it good?” Stella asked while smiling in excitement.

I nodded and replied, “It’s quite sweet!”

“See, I told you! I like it very much. I thought of you and wanted to pass them to you, but you had not

been around lately. I bought these to express my appreciation, so please accept them.”

I was taken aback by her chattiness. I recalled that incident and asked, “How are your injuries? Are you

feeling better?”

She nodded. “I’ve already recovered. Don’t worry. I’m quite tough.”

I let out a sigh of relief and took the dried mangoes. “Thank you. Please don’t buy me anything. Instead, I

should be thanking you for taking that blow for Ashton.”

Her face flushed. “You’re too kind. It was actually Mr. Fuller who had saved me. I ended up being a

burden instead.”

“Let’s go. You shouldn’t be standing for too long!” Ashton said while he hugged me. I nodded in

agreement as I felt uncomfortable after standing for some time.

Stella waved while smiling very brightly.

Ashton took over the bag of dried mangoes and advised, “Next time, don’t force yourself to accept what

you don’t like.”

“She has good intentions. Also, these are sweet. You should try some.” I handed him a piece. “Stella

seemed to be livelier than she used to be,” I said to Ashton with a skeptical look.

Ashton took a bite and continued, “There were some after-effects from her head injury.”

I recall that the doctor mentioned the possibility of a concussion. I looked up at Ashton and asked, “Could

being livelier be a sign of a concussion?”
