The Mysterious Heart Transplant
“Doctor, how’s his condition?”
“He just had surgery and shouldn’t be drinking. Why did he drink so much still?”
“Doctor, please! I beg you! You must save him!”
“Luckily, he was sent to the hospital in time. His life is not at stake now. After he’s done with the IV drip,
stay back for a while for observation. He can be discharged as soon as he feels fine. Please don’t take
alcohol again next time!”
After the doctor left, Melanie stared at the sleeping Stephen, and her heart ached.
Melanie recalled that when she celebrated her birthday a few days ago, Stephen only had juice as he
remembered he shouldn’t be ingesting any alcohol. However, he drank so much alcohol when he was
with Nina today.
Stephen, is Nina more important than your own life? You must really care about her from the bottom of
your heart. Heart… Your heart… Is it because of that heart? No matter how much the owner of this
heart loved her, it should have ended when his life ended! The heart shouldn’t make you so obsessed
with her. No, I can’t let this continue. I can’t let you become Chris’ replacement!
At the thought of that, a hint of ferocity flashed in her eyes, and she immediately made a call.
The next day, Stephen asked for a day off. Nina felt sorry after knowing that Stephen was hospitalized
due to the alcohol last night.
After work, she bought a fruit basket and a bouquet of flowers to visit Stephen in the hospital.
However, she was stopped by Melanie outside the ward.
“Stephen needs to rest. It’s not convenient for him to meet anyone now. Ms. Nina, please leave.”
“I’m so sorry about last night. I didn’t know that he can’t drink.”
Melanie scrutinized Nina carefully as she had not had the chance to look at her closely last night. She’s
changed so much. She’s no longer the fat girl that I mocked at the mall last time. She’s completely
different now!
She was amazed that Nina was able to lose weight in such a short period of time, which showed the
extent of the latter’s perseverance.
As compared to her, Nina had better looks, a better figure, a better family background, and a better
social status. She could not deny that Nina was absolutely a threat to her!
Previously, she had tried to ask Stephen to resign so that he would never see Nina again. However,
Stephen refused. He wanted to work for Nina for at least three years as that was his promise to Chris.
Therefore, the only option she had left was to make Nina leave him instead.
At the thought of that, she quickly drew up a plan in her mind. She put on a sad face and looked at
Nina. “Stephen can’t drink because he had a heart transplant previously. His body has been very weak
since then.”
“Heart transplant?” Nina was stunned.
“Yes. You don’t need to be shocked. A heart transplant is actually very normal nowadays. The man who
donated his heart to Stephen was about the same age as Stephen. I heard that his family is very rich
and owns a big corporation. What a pity that he died at such a young age!”
Nina fell silent for a moment. “Yes, that’s why we should all cherish life while we can. Don’t worry; I
won’t let Stephen join any drinking occasions again in the future.”
That’s not what I actually meant! Did I not make it clear enough?
Melanie coughed. “You’re right. We should all cherish life. By the way, please don’t mention the heart
transplant to Stephen. He doesn’t want to let anyone know about it, especially… you.”
“Me? Why?”
“Because… Because… He said the man who gave him the heart was someone very special. He wants
to keep it a secret from you.”
“Keep it a secret from me?” Nina was left utterly clueless.
Yes! To keep it a secret from you! Hurry up and go find out the truth so that you’ll know what happened
to Chris! Please go accompany him in heaven and stay far, far away from Stephen!
“Ms. Nina, I have to take care of Stephen now. I think you should go back first. He’ll go back to work as
soon as he’s recovered.” Then, she turned around, walked into the ward, and shut the door.
