Chapter 610 I''ve Reconsidered!


    The door to the hospital room shut swiftly.


    Jeffery nced at Carol, and vividly recalled her intense refusal to be kis donor just yesterday.


    He nearly felt an urge to stop pretending


    Carol, oblivious to Jeffery''s subtle shift in mood, eximed urgently, "Jeffery ignore Linsey I''m your true w only sister!"


    Jeffery''s lips tightened into a thin line as he answered, "I didn''t ept her terms."


    Carol frowned as she remembered the conversation she had secretly overhead


    en


    Although she harbored a strong resentment for Linsey, Carol admitted to herself that some of Linsey''s arguments were logical.


    She reasoned that Jeffery''s death would bring her no gain. Conversely, saving him now would likely make tim cherish and pamper her more.


    With this realization, Carol quickly blurted out, "Jeffery! I''ve reconsidered! I''ll go ahead with thepatibility test and donate my bone marrow to you! Your condition will surely improve!"


    Jeffery was taken aback by Carol''s sudden agreement, which was a stark contrast to her stubborn desal yesterday, as though her own life was at stake.


    Despite having lived with Carol for years, he recognized suddenly that he didn''t understand her as well as Linsey seemed to.


    Jeffery was uncertain whether this was due to Linsey''s sharp perception of people, or his ownck of insight into Carol.


    Jeffery''s gaze became somber.


    Indeed, he could tell that Carol''s consent was not driven by concern for his critical illness.


    He understood that her motivation stemmed from her annoyance with Linsey''s efforts to im what she viewed as her own.


    Linsey had made it unmistakably clear-if he were to die, it wouldn''t matter who ended up taking control of the Lawson Group, because Carol would lose everything she had.


    Thus, Jeffery concluded that Carol had agreed to the donation, albeit reluctantly, purely for her personal


    interests.


    And truthfully, if the Lawson family happened to locate apatible donor down the line, Carol wouldn''t have

    to sacrifice anything.


    Despite Carol''s self-centered and spoiled nature, her family would strive to spare her from donating bone marrow to Jeffery. They only considered Carol as a donor as ast resort.


    "Jeffery, don''t let Linsey donate, and definitely don''t let Mom and Dad adopt her or give her any shares!" Carol urged as she sped Jeffery''s hand, seeking his immediate reassurance.


    Her words pulled Jeffery out of his thoughts, and a wave of impatience began to creep in. He sighed deeply and replied casually, "Okay,"


    Carol, reassured by Jeffery''s earlier dismissal of Linsey, was relieved and overlooked his indifferent response.


    "Jeffery, do you know where Mom and Dad are? I''ve made up my mind, and I need to tell them. They''ll be thrilled, and they won''t stay upset with me after this."


    The thought made Carol increasingly excited. Had she realized the benefits of agreeing to be Jeffery''s donor earlier, she would have consented sooner.


    Jeffery gave a slight shake of his head and said, "They likely stepped out to continue searching for a matching


    donor."


    After a brief pause, Carol said, "Then I''ll go look for them and help in the search." Carol reasoned that if a donor were found, she could avoid the painful surgery. "Go ahead," Jeffery said without any intent to stop her.


    Shortly after, Carol stood up and exited.


    Once Carol was gone, Jeffery felt a wave of relief wash over him, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.


    He couldn''t pinpoint when Carol''s presence had started to feel so burdensome.
