Lanny did not specify the depth, and Scarlett did not inquire.
The two were quiet for a bit. Lanny opened the drawer, grabbed a few boxes of fresh medicine, and
gave them to Scarlett. “Make sure you take them when you’re supposed to.”
Scarlett thanked her and then grabbed the phone to transfer the money to Lanny. “Doc, what’s the
cost? I’ll send it to you right away.”
However, Lanny waved her hand. “No need. It’s only a few boxes of medicine. It doesn’t mean much to
me. But you appear to be short of funds”
Scarlett shook her head. “Im already on death’s door. I don’t need money. I just want to save more for
my elder sister.”
Lanny nodded clearly, as if having thought of something, and handed Scarlett a business card.
“This is a renowned cardiologist in the US. Mr. Jackman employed him to locate a compatible heart for
you.”
Scarlett took the business card. Her heart could not stop trembling, which made her body hurt
She did not expect Sebastian to keep his word. He was really looking for a suitable heart for her.
“Previously, Mr. Jackman should have contacted Dr. George directly, but he suddenly asked me to
reach out to him. He also said I don’t need to report anything about you back to him in the future. Did
something happen between the two of you?”
Scarlett’s face gradually paled – he searched for a heart for her, yet she uttered such harsh words and
pushed him away. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
The pain was so intense that she could barely breathe, but she clenched her jaw and refused to let
Lanny see her discomfort.
Seeing that Scarlett was silent, Lanny thought that she didn’t want to tell her, so she refrained from
asking further. Instead, she sought Scarlett’s opinion.
“I just want to confirm if you want me to contact Dr. George.”
“If you wish to get in touch with him. I will provide him with all the details you have in the later stages so
that he can. accurately locate a heart
Scarlet shook her head at Lanny, forcing herself to come back to her senses.
“No need. It’s already too late. You don’t need to expend medical resources on me.”
She was indeed telling the truth, for she could not live for much longer.
Furthermore, the heart transplant surgery would pose a great risk.
Even if she were to find a suitable donor right away and enlist the services of the best doctor to perform
the surgery, there would still be a risk of rejection.
If the post-surgery rejection was severe, it could have been fatal. It was extremely difficult to treat her,
so why would they expend so much effort?
Lanny was clear about all of this, so she did not try to persuade her again. It was only because Scarlett
had stood up to help her just now and she felt bad for Scarlett.
“If you change your mind, you can come back to me…”
“Okay, thank you, Doctor.”
Scarlett obediently agreed, took the medicine, thanked Lanny repeatedly, and left the Director’s office.
As soon as she left, Lanny immediately called Sebastian, wanting to ensure Scarlett would not be
disturbed by Susy before she passed away.
Scarlett was in no rush to go home; instead, she headed to the mall. She felt that she couldn’t take
Lanny’s medicine without repaying the favor, so she decided to buy a gift.
Just as she had finished her shopping at the mall, she ran into Susy and Scarlee, who had just stepped
out of a luxurious car.
Susy’s face sank and her eyes flashed with a sinister and vicious look as soon as she saw Scarlett.
Scarlee, seemingly unaware, raised her eyebrows slightly upon seeing Scarlett holding the GUCCI
shopping bag,
She wanted to go and mock Scarlett, but Susy, who was beside her, beat her to it.
*Slap–*
A deafening slap sounded.
