My Husband Warm The Bed (Karen Daly) novel Chapter 1495

Written in the email were many other things that Julien had not known happened.

While Vanessa was pregnant, her stepmother forced her to get an abortion. Thus, Vanessa ran away from home, gave birth to Lawrie, and then raised him alone.

Lawrie was diagnosed with leukemia when he was a year old. After that, Vanessa spent all her savings, including the inheritance left by her mother for Lawrie's treatment.

Lawrie's illness needed a great sum of money for treatment. It was not something a single parent like her could afford.

This was the reason why she was with him for the past year. If it was not for the money, she would not be interested in anything else.

She had been so terribly wronged, yet he still made things difficult for her and made her life a living hell.

Julien could no longer go on reading. He got up instantly. He wanted to see Vanessa. He must see her right away.

Lawrie's condition had suddenly taken a turn for the worse, and the doctor proposed that the best remedy was to conduct a bone marrow transplant. However, the cost of the surgery was too high with the success rate only at about 60%. The key was that they had to find a compatible bone marrow for the surgery.

After hearing this, Vanessa was stunned. It took her a long time to find her voice. She said, "Doctor, is this the only way? Aren't there any other options? Lawrie's so young, will he be able to pull through?"

The doctor said, "Miss Love, we've also considered chemotherapy, but he's no longer suited for the treatment as he's had several relapses. Besides, chemo will come with a lot of negative side effects, which is quite detrimental especially for a child like him. Hence, we conclude that bone marrow transplant is the best treatment for him."

Vanessa's heart ached as soon as she thought about how Lawrie had to experience this at such a young age. The pain was so overbearing that it made her senses go numb.

The doctor assumed that Vanessa was worried about the treatment fees, so he explained, "Miss Love, the bone marrow transplantation fee is high, but you don't have to worry about it. Mr. Kyle has already said that he'll handle all expenses regardless of how much they are."

Vanessa knew that Julien had already spoken to the hospital. It had been a month since Lawrie was admitted, and they lived in a high-class ward with extremely high costs. Her initial payment to the hospital had already been used up, but she had not been contacted for further payment.

She did not want to owe Julien too much, but in order to cure Lawrie's illness, she had no choice but to do so because he was the only one who could help them.

Vanessa bit her lip and nodded, "Doctor, please help find a suitable bone marrow for Lawrie."

The doctor replied, "Our hospital currently does not carry one that's compatible with Lawrie, but we will contact other hospitals to check for a compatible bone marrow donor. If we can find one, we will arrange for surgery for Lawrie at the earliest possible time."

Vanessa said, "Thank you! Thank you for your trouble."

Vanessa walked out of the doctor's office in a daze. All she could think about was Lawrie lying on the hospital bed in pain. He had to suffer a lot because of the multiple surgeries he had undergone. Even as his mother, she could not help him with anything. She was not able to help him when he was in pain and she could not take his place in the surgery.

If she could, she would rather be the one who was ill.

"Vanessa..." Julien's voice suddenly sounded from behind her. Before Vanessa could respond, he had already pulled her into his arms with great force. He called out her name again and again, his voice low and deep, "Vanessa... Vanessa..."

He only stopped after a long while. He gently let her out from his arms. It was only then did he realize that she had already burst into tears.

Vanessa added, "I don't want to see you now. Please get out of my sight immediately."

Did he find out what happened that fateful night?

Vanessa could talk to Harper and Joey about that night, but she could not bring herself to tell Julien about it. She was afraid that he would despise her after finding out.

Because this matter concerned him, and she was afraid of so many things.

This time around, Julien did not leave. He had said that he would stay by their side and would not let them out of his sight. Hence, no matter what, he would not abandon Vanessa. He would not let her face terrible things on her own.

Since Julien did not leave, Vanessa just ignored him. She helped Lawrie sit up and said, "How are you feeling, son? Remember to tell Mommy if you're not feeling well, okay?"

Lawrie glanced at Julien who stood behind Vanessa. He looked displeased before leaning into Vanessa's arms. He said softly, "I don't want to see the bad guy, Mommy. Please make him leave."

In the past, whenever Julien saw Lawrie, he always felt that this little kid was unpleasant company. After finding out that Lawrie was his child, no matter how much the little kid disliked him, he still thought him adorable.

He did not notice this in the past but he now felt that Lawrie looked a little like him, especially when he got that look between his eyes. He was basically a carbon copy of Julien!

The child looked just like him. How had he not noticed this before?
