Regret
I was the real son, finally found and brought back by my billionaire parents, only to be diagnosed with leukemia right after. The only person who matched my bone marrow was the adopted son, Doug Daniel. So my parents rushed to bring him back into the family, making him my donor. To make it up to him, they did everything they could for him. My parents handed over the inheritance. My fiancée, Moira Stevens, hovered around him every day. When the pain got so bad that I could barely stand it, my parents pointed at me and snapped, "Jay! You keep bringing up your illness. Are you really that eager to take away Doug's health?" Moira, a medical school professor, didn't hold back either. "I'm a doctor. You think I don't understand your condition? You act like you're dying every single day. You just can't stand that we're being nice to Doug." On the day of the transplant, I lay on the operating table and waited. But Moira, the one in charge of harvesting Doug's marrow, never came in. I closed my eyes and waited for death. None of them knew I had already signed up to donate my body.

I watched my parents and Moira collapse to the ground, their cries tearing through the air.My ashes had already been mixed with others from the lab. There was nothing left for them to take.The three of them were helped back to the villa by security. That was when they finally started remembering me.They opened the anonymous emails I had scheduled and sent them.All three of them went still, then furious.There were over 100 screenshots of messages. Along with the photo of Moira and Doug kissing, there were months of Doug's insults and threats.[So what if you're the real son? Mom, Dad, and Moira never take your side. All I have to do is say a few words, and you lose everything.[You're dying anyway, right? You think I'd actually give you my marrow? I was just putting on a show! Otherwise, how would I get the shares?[You're useless. If I were you, I'd have ended it already.[You're disgusting. No wonder nobody wanted you.]-They stared at the messages, faces shifting fro

After dinner, Doug offered to drive Moira home.In the past, she had stayed over more than once, partly out of guilt toward him.Tonight, however, her thoughts kept drifting back to the anatomy lab.Almost without thinking, she pulled up our message thread. The last messages were from half a month ago.She had believed Doug back then. She thought I was only with her to use her, to use her to get back into my wealthy family.So she had typed coldly, [Jay, you're too focused on status. I don't think we can go back to how things were. You insulted Doug. Come back and apologize to him.]I never replied. I didn't bother explaining anymore.Now, she stared at those two lines, then quickly typed another. [Where are you?]Doug kept glancing at her from the driver's seat, something dark settling in his eyes.I knew why he stayed close to her. He had his eye on her family and their medical legacy.I drifted in the back seat as he drove all the way to the coast.Moira looked at him, co

Moira stumbled back a step, then another, her thin frame unsteady. She stared at me, her voice shaking. "Th-this is… No. It just looks like him. That's all."The students around her exchanged confused looks, but her eyes stayed locked on my face.Her hands trembled as she turned my body over. When she didn't see the tattoo of her initials on my left shoulder, she let out a quiet breath.Once she steadied herself, she went back to work.She opened my body with practiced precision, her tone calm and professional as she lectured. "Based on the condition of the organs and the abnormal cell growth, the patient had leukemia. Here you can see the heart, the lungs, the liver…"She moved through the procedure smoothly, as if nothing were wrong.She didn't know that the day I saw the photo of her kissing Doug, I had already gone and had that tattoo removed.When the class ended, she dropped into a chair, drained.She stared at my open body, lost in thought, when her phone rang sharpl
Too Late to Save Me Chapter 3
On the day of the bone marrow transplant, Moira was the lead surgeon, but she never moved to harvest Doug's marrow.I had expected it, but my chest still tightened anyway.Right before we were wheeled into the operating room, Doug had leaned in close and whispered tauntingly, "Wanna make a bet? I bet she won't take my marrow for you."He sounded so sure of himself.I forced a faint smile.A part of me still hoped Moira wouldn't let me down. We met in college and spent five years together.As I lay on the operating table, however, she didn't look at me once. Her eyes stayed on Doug the whole time, filled with concern.She lifted the scalpel, then hesitated. When the anesthesiologist was about to sedate Doug, he suddenly started crying."Moira… I don't know how long this body will hold up after the surgery. While I'm still okay, there's something I want to say."She reached for his hand right away, her expression soft.Doug's voice shook. "I've never been as lucky as Jay. I did

I went to a medical donation center to register as a body donor.The staff member frowned as she looked at me. "Body donation requires consent from your immediate family. Without that, we can't proceed."Immediate family.If my parents and Moira found out, how would they react?A small part of m

"Your condition is getting worse. If we don't move forward with the bone marrow transplant soon, you may not make it another month."The doctor stood by my bed, his expression serious. "We still haven't found a suitable donor."I swallowed the bitterness rising in my chest and kept quiet. Ther
