Arthur’s P.O.V.“In his present condition, his body will not be able to endure any treatment. With the rapid growth of cancer cells inside his body, we soon need to find a way to treat him. I have sent his blood sample for advanced tests as you instructed Dr. Beckham. We will be able to get the results in the next five days.”Noah’s statement from the previous discussion was still replaying in the back of my mind.I wanted to fall asleep, but I couldn’t.The fear of losing Evan had engulfed my heart.“His latest test results showed a slight improvement. Monitor him for the next two days, and if he shows no deterioration, then we will plan the next transfusion by next Wednesday.”I tightened my grip on Pearl’s body when the thought of her giving blood again crossed my mind.She was sleeping soundly in my embrace.I dragged her into this mess to save her, but now it seems I was also doing the same thing that my parents intended to do in the first place.Using Pearl to save Evan.I am us

Pearl’s P.O.V.“Mrs. Froste.” I looked at Cara when she called me softly.“Thanks, Cara.” I smiled while taking the coffee mug from her hand.Her gaze flickered towards my hand that now had a drip set.I looked at Evan, who was now sleeping peacefully.His condition has improved since yesterday, as he didn’t vomit again after the last episode this morning.“You shouldn’t have bent your hand this much.” She suggested worriedly.I smiled and took a sip of the coffee.The hot and bitter taste of coffee awakened all my senses.I have been working on proposals for two new projects that our company wants to work on.The department sent me the proposal this morning, keeping me busy with work.“What would you like to have for lunch, Mrs. Froste?” Cara asked me politely.“Let me talk to Arthur if he is coming back or not,” I replied to her while taking my phone from the other side of my body.“Please don’t stand all the time,” I asked her when I saw that she was still standing in the same plac

Arthur’s P.O.V.“His condition is stable. I have already told you that this nausea feeling will persist until his body develops strength. It will take time. We need to stay patient.” Dr. Smith explained with a serious expression on his face.“He is too young to bear such pain, Dr. Smith,” Pearl mumbled worriedly, still holding Evan tightly against her chest.I rubbed her shoulder gently to comfort her, but I was also feeling uneasy.“I….. don’t want to say what happened in the past, Mrs. Froste, but he is…. Uhhhh… he shouldn’t be in this condition if….if…” Dr. Smith hesitated to finish this sentence, but both Pearl and I stiffened badly.If our families paid attention to Evan’s treatment instead of conspiring against us.If our families had told me everything as soon as they learned about Evan’s sickness….I breathed out slowly when Pearl put her hand on mine.“That’s the past. What should we do now? Can’t we get the reports early?” Pearl asked him worriedly, changing the subject.She

Pearl’s P.O.V.“You should go to him,” Victor whispered to me.I shook my head negatively.“He needs this,” I whispered, my eyes glued to Arthur.Victor didn’t say anything again.We stayed standing outside the room, watching Arthur putting Evan to sleep, holding him tightly, but his lonely figure was enough to make me feel terrible.“Everyone called him the golden boy when he was in school and university. They sometimes taunted him for having a perfect life.” Victor whispered, his voice distant but filled with heartbreak.Heartbreak for Arthur.It reminded me of my time in school and university.Same taunt of being a golden girl, born with a silver spoon.I knew this bitterness well.People around us envied us for the glittering crown on our heads, but they didn’t bother to notice the weight of that crown.“He shouldered every taunt, every burden, and every pain silently. They took his silence for granted, including his parents.” He continued, and I just listened to him, watching Art

Arthur’s P.O.V. (Continued)I took my phone out without stopping and picked up the call.“I sent you two files, Mr. Froste. Five mansions suit our requirements.” Paul told me after the call connected.“We can move into any of them within a week.”“What exactly is going on with Sapphire?” I asked him calmly, closing the door behind me after exiting the room.There was silence on his side for a few seconds.I walked to Evan’s room.“Mr. Rhodes Nickelson has been hospitalized since last night after he had a stroke. The other branches got infuriated, and they retaliated against Ms. Sapphire Nickelson and sabotaged two of her big projects.”My jaw clenched, and my expression darkened.Cara stood up when I entered the room.“Please arrange our dinner, Cara,” I asked her politely, masking my rage.It was now getting out of hand.They attacked Pearl and Jack first.Now, Pearl was unapproachable; they thought that they could mess with Sapphire.They chose the wrong target and are now playing f
