Chapter 5 Play Her Game

• Jessica's face paled. She bit her lip in grievience and said, "Seraphina, how could you say such a thing? I'm to blame for Orion's neglect of you. I feel so terrible."
• Seraphina wasn't interested in wasting any more words on her. Instead, she turned to Paul, who was standing nearby. "I want to see her medical report from today."
• Stunned, Paul hesitated for a moment. After all, it was a patient's private information.
• Orion glanced at him briefly and spoke coldly, "Show her. Seraphina isn't an outsider."
• Jessica's expression turned grim at his words. Seraphina simply responded with a sarcastic smirk. In no time, the report was in her hands.
• She scanned it quickly, her expression unreadable.
• The report confirmed it—severe kidney failure, with a recommendation for a transplant.
• Paul spoke up, "Mrs. Dros, Ms. Jessica's condition is indeed critical. If she doesn't get surgery soon, her life could be in danger."
• Orion added, "Seraphina, if you agree to donate a kidney to Jessica, after the divorce, you'll get half of my family's wealth!"
• Jessica's eyes widened in shock at Orion's words. She quickly said, "No, no, Orion, you've already sacrificed too much for me. I can't burden you anymore!"
• Orion looked deeply moved. He said, "No, your brother gave his life to save mine. I can't abandon you now!"
• Watching this scene, Seraphina could only laugh bitterly inside.
• Honestly, she had never truly believed Jessica's kidney failure was real. As a woman, it was obvious to her that Jessica's exhaustion was all makeup.
• If she were really that ill, why bother putting on makeup?
• However, it didn't matter anymore. She would just play along and consider Jessica to be terribly ill.
• "Since it's this serious, then let's do the surgery immediately," Seraphina said suddenly.
• "What?" Orion's eyes lit up. "Seraphina, are you agreeing to donate a kidney to Jessica?"
• Jessica was equally stunned. She was about to say something when Seraphina continued, "Of course, but I won't be using mine. I've brought someone with an RH-negative blood type, just like Jessica's. Don't worry—I've already had them tested. There won't be any risk of rejection."
• Emeris had been tracking people with the rare RH-negative blood type across the country ever since she discovered her daughter had it, just in case a match was required.
• There were always a few struggling financially, and they were more than willing to trade a kidney for a comfortable life.
• "Really?" Orion's face brightened. This way, Seraphina wouldn't have to sacrifice herself, and Jessica could still get the treatment. It was the perfect solution.
• However, Jessica's expression darkened. Her illness was indeed fake, but she had planned to use this opportunity to get rid of Seraphina. She had already coordinated everything with her attending doctor. During the surgery, they would simply give her a scar sticker, while Paul would sell off Seraphina's kidney for cash!
• Unexpectedly, Seraphina had found a suitable kidney donor, completely ruining Jessica's plan.
• Seraphina's following words made Jessica's heart sink even further.
• "Oh, and by the way, I don't trust the doctors at this hospital. So, I specifically invited Professor Stanley from the Serenity Health Institute in Marisol. He'll be performing the surgery personally. Actually, he's in the hospital director's office right now. I'll call him down immediately."
• Jessica's attending doctor instinctively wanted to object, but when he heard the name 'Professor Stanley from Serenity Health Institute', he instantly fell silent.
• There was no arguing with it. Stanley was one of the world's leading experts in urology. Paul knew he couldn't compare.
• Jessica, however, was in complete turmoil. Even though she wasn't actually sick, this news was enough to scare her into an illness.
• The attending doctor had been replaced. Were they really going to perform a kidney transplant on her now?
• Jessica's fears weren't entirely unfounded. Stanley was world-renowned for his expertise in urology. His surgical skills were exceptional, with an incredibly high success rate. Moreover, he had done extensive research in kidney transplants, making him a true authority in the field.
• If Stanley was truly going to operate on her, there would be no way for Jessica to escape. Jessica had only bribed her attending doctor; Stanley would not succumb to such manipulation.
