I was strapped to the chair in the blood donation room, powerless to stop the nurse from sticking the needle into my arm.
"Josephine, people have to pay for their mistakes."
"Even if it drains every last drop of your blood today, you'll have to accept it!"
Seeing that I was tied to the blood donation room and unable to struggle, Jacob seemed satisfied.
Without another glance, he turned and walked out.
I slumped in the chair, completely giving up the struggle, my face pale as I watched my blood slowly drain away.
After 400cc had been drawn, I thought it would finally be over.
Who knew that Jacob would return to the blood donation room, his face etched with anxiety.
"Sadie's condition isn't good. 400cc isn't enough, we need 1000cc!"
Upon hearing this, the nurse exclaimed in shock, "Mr. Gilmore, 1000cc is beyond a person's limit! Your wife will die!"
"I said, draw her blood and you'll do it! If you don't want to, I'll find someone else!"
The Gilmores were very famous in New York City.
The nurse was too frightened to argue and had no choice but to obey.
As my blood flowed out, my vision gradually blurred and I couldn't even hear the frantic beeping of the medical equipment beside me.
In a trance, I remembered that Jacob took Jasmine out and did not keep an eye on Jasmine.
Jasmine had rushed onto the road and been hit by a passing car. She had suffered severe bleeding on the spot. She was given a critical condition notice, needing a blood transfusion to survive.
The hospital only had 400cc of Rh-negative blood back then, which was far from enough for Jasmine.
I begged Jacob to find a way to save Jasmine, but he didn't even look at her. He just said he had something to do in the company and turned away coldly.
In the end, I had no choice but to use my own blood to save Jasmine.
After that, Jasmine stayed in the hospital for half a month and Jacob didn't even call to ask.
Now, his first love's daughter got sick and he was panicking.
Sadie had no blood relation to him at all. I really wanted to ask him who exactly his biological daughter was.
The amount of blood drawn was too much and coupled with my alcohol allergy, I ended up staying in the hospital for three days.
During this time, Jacob never came to see me again.
It was Selena who sent me several provocative text messages.
[You really are tough. Even after losing that much blood, you're still alive. But what's the point? Jacob is with my Sadie every day.]
