Sheila spoke and laughed through her tears, her face a complete mess.
I couldn’t bring myself to care anymore; all I felt was anger and despair.
“If you don’t believe me, why don’t you send those documents
to your
sir friends at the hospital? They can help you verify them,” Sheila suggested. “I’ve got nothing left. This is the only leverage I have, and I’m not joking about my future.”
“Sylvia, I’ve told you everything I know. You owe me some kind of response” She stared at me with such intense expectation, while I felt my thoughts spiral out of control.
I forced myself to stay calm. “You’ll have to let me verify it first. I can’t just take your word for it,”
Sheila nodded. “Fine, 111
I wait for you”

Thankfully, I still had the photos I took of the blood donation documents, just in case something like this happened. I hadn’t expected I’d them so soon
As for hospital contacts, I couldn’t think of anyone except for Jerut wasting turne, I sent him the photos and asked, Can you check if
these documents are real! Please help. I really need it.]
A few minutes later, Jeremy replied, Look at you, messaging me for help during the holiday?
I was speechless.
A second later, he sent another message. They re fake! Didn’t know you were into forging documents now. That’s illegal, you know? I could report you and get a reward, right?]
I was left speechless again
- [How can you tell they’re fake What’s wrong with them!]
Jeremy called me “First, the hospital gives blood donation certificates, but not like this. They all have unique codes. Second, the certificate needs to be stamped and entered into the system. I checked just now, and there’s no record of this in their database.
My heart sank. I felt ice cold. Thanks,” I said numbly, then ended the call
you know I wasn’t lying, right?”
Sheila had already seen the change in my expression and sneered. “So, now you
My breath faltered, and everything around me seemed to blur. It took me a long time to steady myself. “I know.”
“What about my job?” Sheila pressed.
“I’ll contact you after the holiday. For now you can stay at this address,” I handed her the keys to the rental I was using, which still hadn’t expired
She took the keys with a mix of relief and hesitation. “What about food?”
I replied, “Come with me to the supermarket,”
I took her shopping, buying enough supplies to last her a month. I then told her to take a cab back.
Honestly, as we shopped, my mind was in a complete daze. My thoughts were scattered, my emotions all over the place.
What Sheila had told me was beyond anything I had imagined. I’d never even considered something like this. On the outside, I appeared calm, but inside, I was falling apart.
After I saw Sheila off, I sat in the car for a long tim
time, staring into space. My head was spinning as I drove to the hospital. But when I got to the parking lot, I ended up bumping into Jeremy’s car.
When he got out and saw who it was, I felt a rush of embarrassment and anxiety. I hurriedly apologized.
y are something, he said with a grin. “I help you out and this is how you repay
y me? The repair costs are on you.”
“You really are s
I nodded quickly. “Of course, my fault. So sorry!
By some twist of fate, Jeremy and I were both beading the same way. We ended up getting into the same elevator, one right after the other. But in my flustered state. I didn’t even notice.

It wasn’t until he asked, “The blood donation was for Juno, wasn’t it?” that it finally hit me.
