Chapter 175 Will You Choose Me?
After separating from Stefan, Martha went to the hotel where Rupert stayed.
Whether Rhys was a real match for Jimmy had to be confirmed by Rupert.
She didn't trust any other doctors out there.
Rupert had just returned from the hospital when she arrived.
Seeing the tiredness on Rupert's face and his bloodshot eyes, Martha knew that it was all because of
Jimmy.
She pursed her lips and said softly, "You should take more rest."
The man responded softly, and then asked with concern, "You went to Rhys. How did it go?"
Martha lowered her eyes. There seemed to be complicated emotions in her tone...
"Rhys won't donate his bone marrow unless I marry him."
She hoped that Rhys' bone marrow matched Jimmy's, but she didn't want to marry him.
Hearing her answer, Rupert pondered for a moment. Then, a suspicious voice sounded in the room,
"The whole thing is weird."
It was not easy to find a bone marrow match. In theory, a relative was most likely to be a match.
As for strangers...
The likelihood was almost zero.
Rhys suddenly appeared with a test report, as if he had known about the child's situation earlier.
No doubt, he was suspicious.
Martha nodded. "I know. "
She knew better than anyone that things were complicated.
In the end, she solemnly looked at the man in front of her.
"Rupert, you are the only person I trust now. "
Martha's trust erased Rupert's fatigue from the past few days.
He said lightly, "Do you want to redo the bone marrow matching?"
She nodded with a serious expression.
"Yes, I want you to do a test for Rhys and Jimmy tomorrow."
"Okay, I will."
Rupert responded with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
He watched Jimmy grow up and wished Jimmy to be alright.
But...
If Rhys' bone marrow really matched Jimmy's, Martha would have to marry him.
He didn't want to see Martha marry someone else, but he didn't want to see Jimmy die either.
Rupert finally couldn't help asking tentatively, "If Rhys were really a match for Jimmy, would you agree
to marry him?"
Martha picked up the water glass on the table. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she took a sip of
the cold water in the glass.
In just a moment, a chill came over her. Slowly, she gathered her wits, but her mind was still a mess.
She shook her head and pursed her lips.
She couldn't answer Rupert's question.
Before it was confirmed that Rhys was a match, she didn't know what the answer would be.
Rupert could see that Martha's mind was mixed up, so he didn't ask any further.
However, sometimes once a decision was made, there was no turning back.
"I hope you can think about this matter carefully. And no matter what decision you make in the end, I
will support you."
Martha looked very moved. As she stared at this man who has always supported her, warmth flooded
her heart.
"Rupert, thank you for supporting and taking care of me for so many years."
The man's eyes dimmed, and he said frankly, "You know, what I want is never thanks."
Hearing this, Martha unconsciously bit her lower lip, showing a helpless smile.novelbin
Of course, she knew Rupert didn't want thanks, but what he wanted... she couldn't afford it.
Rupert hid the disappointment in his eyes, smiled gently, and comforted her, "You don't have to feel
burdened. Everything I did was my choice."
Looking at his sincere eyes, Martha felt even more guilty.
When she was abroad, Rupert confessed his love many times, but she always avoided it.
This time, she still didn't know what to do.
"I... I suddenly remembered that I have an apportionment with Jane. I got to go now."
Then she got up and walked out.
Rupert grabbed her wrist.
He walked in front of her and looked her straight in the eyes.
He saw an evasive and helpless look in her eyes.
In the past, he had not forced her, but this time, he didn't want to wait any longer.
Feeling a lump in his throat, he asked the question that had been kept deep in his heart for many
years...
"Martha, if Stefan hadn't shown up, would you have chosen me?"
