I Once Married You (Harper and Benjamin) novel Chapter 335

Chapter 335 Uneasy

Harper leaned against the warmth of the man's embrace, and her uneasy heart gradually found a trace of tranquility.

She nodded lightly. "Okay."

The atmosphere quieted down, and the two of them embraced each other gently.

Later, Benjamin finished work early and took Harper to the hospital to meet with Dr. Gene, who explained all the risks and consequences in front of Harper.

If they chose conservative treatment, the time would be longer, but if they opted for surgery, there were significant risks, such as rejection, among others. However, if successful, the results would be promising.

Harper chose the latter option, as she had said, not wanting to let go of any hope.

The next step was to persuade Mrs. Eleanor to undergo the transplant surgery.

In the evening, after returning home, they appeared solemnly at Mrs. Eleanor's residence.

Seeing the two of them together with such serious expressions, Mrs. Eleanor already knew that Harper was aware of everything.

When Harper brought up the matter, Mrs. Eleanor didn't say anything, just asking, "Harper, is it that my agreement to your request will ease your heart?"

Harper nodded. She said, "Grandma, I hope you can always be with me, so can we cheer each other up and not miss any opportunity or hope?"

Mrs. Eleanor didn't speak and just smiled at her.

Although they were not related by blood, Mrs. Eleanor gave Harper a sense of security, and Harper gave Mrs. Eleanor companionship. They each participated in each other's lives and planted feelings that could never be forgotten.

Finally, Mrs. Eleanor agreed.

The whole process went smoothly.

The next day, Mrs. Eleanor was admitted to the hospital. Harper still had the auntie at home to take care of her, and she would also go after work, as they still needed to find a suitable heart match for the transplant. So hospitalization was just a way to regulate the body and prepare for subsequent surgery.

After seeing Mrs. Eleanor, Harper went to see Dr. Gene with Benjamin.

Dr. Gene also contacted the heart matching center, but they haven't found a suitable match for Grandma yet. After all, it was a matter of chance and couldn't be forced.

He walked over and hugged her directly from behind.

Harper was stunned subconsciously, her back pressed against his firm and warm chest.

He gently rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered softly in her ear, "If there's anything you want to say, just tell me, okay?"

Harper closed her eyes and murmured softly, "I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me."

"I didn't tell you about Grandma because I had an agreement with her, not for any other reason. Do you trust me?"

"Um, I understand."

He turned her around to face him directly, his voice deep and low. "Then why are you upset now?"

"I'm not upset." She looked up at him, her voice weak. "I just feel a little guilty."

She felt guilty for only now knowing about Mrs. Eleanor's condition. It felt like she had been neglectful.
