Falling for My Contractual Wife (Grace and Brian) novel Chapter 744

"Really? Do I look awful?" Grace raised her hand and touched her cheek.

"That's right. Your face is so pale. There's no color at all. What's wrong? Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll accompany Austin," Jasmine offered.

Grace shook her head and forced a smile. "I'm fine. I might have caught a cold. It was chilling outside."

Jasmine asked worriedly, "Are you sure you're fine?"

"Yeah, sure," Grace assured her.

"Alright, then. I'll leave her to you," said Jasmine.

Grace looked at Austin and closed her eyes in sorrow.

Her phone suddenly rang. Grace took it out and checked. It was Justin, whom she had not contacted for a long time.

"Hello? Justin?" Grace pressed the answer button.

Over the phone, Justin hesitated for a while before asking, "Grace, how are you?"

Justin's words were simple, but Grace could no longer hold back her tears. They fell.

Even though she tried hard to control herself, Justin could still hear her soft sobbing.

"Grace, where are you?" Justin asked.

Grace cried bitterly. "Justin, I'm in the hospital. Austin's sick..."

Justin's heart tightened. "Which hospital? I'll be right there!"

Justin hung up the phone and arrived not long after.

He was breathing hard, looking like he had run up the stairs.

Panting, he asked, "What illness does Austin have? Where's Brian?"

Grace covered her mouth and said slowly, "Leukemia."

"Justin, what are you talking about?" Grace asked.

Justin hesitated before taking out his phone and showed Grace the photos.

Grace watched the photos, thunder-struck.

'He was with another woman last night! Lying on the same bed as another woman!' Grace felt her heart ached.

Grace returned the phone to Justin with an ashy face.

She tried to control her expression and trembling fingers as she looked up at Justin.

"Justin, is there no other way to treat Austin's illness other than a bone marrow transplant?" Grace repeated.

Justin looked at her deeply for a while. "There's only one way in the country at the moment. There's a leukemia research center in Soofareland. They've been researching leukemia for more than 10 years. A girl a couple of years ahead of me in school is there. I heard the experiment was effective some time ago, but the technology might not be mature enough."

Grace's eyes lit up. "Ask her for me, please."
