How deep were the contradictions between them? Liana didn’t say, and Eleanor didn’t ask.

The two fell silent for a moment. Liana opened a drawer, took out a few boxes of newly arrived medicine, and handed them to Eleanor, “Remember to take them on time.”

Eleanor expressed her gratitude, picked up her phone to transfer money to Liana, “Dr. Terrill, how much do I owe you? I’ll send it to you.”

Liana waved her hand dismissively, “No need. It’s just some medicine, no big deal for me. But it seems like you’re pretty strapped for cash?”

Eleanor shook her head, “I’m about to die, what do I need money for? I just want to leave some for my sister.”

Liana nodded knowingly, as if remembering something, and handed a business card to Eleanor.

“This is a renowned heart specialist. Mr. Laurence hired him to find a suitable heart for you.”

Eleanor took the card, her heart involuntarily trembling, causing pain throughout her body.

She didn’t expect Bernard to keep his promise and was already looking for a suitable heart for her.

“Before, Mr. Laurence was in direct contact with Dr. George, but he suddenly asked me to contact Dr. George and said that he doesn’t need to be informed about your situation anymore. Is there a conflict between you and him?”

Eleanor’s face turned pale. After learning that Bernard was looking for a heart for her, she had said such heartless words and pushed

him away.

She was in so much pain that she could hardly breathe, clenching her teeth hard to avoid showing any abnormal expression in front of

Liana.

Seeing her silence, Liana thought she didn’t want to talk about it and didn’t press further. Instead, she asked for her opinion, “I mainly came to ask if you need me to contact Dr. George.”

“If you do, I’ll have to send him your late–stage data so he can accurately find a suitable heart for you.”

Eleanor tried to adjust her emotions and shook her head.

“No need. I can’t wait any longer. Don’t waste medical resources on me.”

She was speaking the truth. She really didn’t have much time left.

Moreover, her previous artificially grafted heart had been damaged, and another transplant would pose a significant risk to her life.

Even if a suitable donor was found immediately and a top–notch doctor performed the surgery, there would still be a risk of rejection.

If severe postoperative rejection occurred, it would also lead to death. In short, curing her is very difficult, so why bother?

Liana knew all of this well, so she didn’t try to persuade her further. It was just that Eleanor had offered her help earlier, and Liana felt a bit regretful.

“If you change your mind, you can come to me.”

“Okay, thank you, Dr. Terrill.”

Eleanor obediently agreed, took the medicine and thanked Liana several times before leaving the office.

As soon as she left, Liana immediately called Bernard. Not for any other reason, but just hoping that Eleanor wouldn’t be disturbed by Joelle in her last days.

Instead of heading straight home, Eleanor decided to make a stop at the mall. She couldn’t simply accept the medication from Liana without showing gratitude, so she intended to purchase some gifts as a token of appreciation.

By chance, as Eleanor exited the mall, she crossed paths with Joelle and Sophie, who had just stepped out of a luxurious car.

Upon spotting Eleanor, Joelle’s expression changed, her eyes gleaming with malice.

On the other hand, Sophie appeared oblivious to the situation, mildly raising her eyebrows upon noticing the Gucci shopping bag in Eleanor’s hands.

Initially, Sophie had entertained the idea of mocking Eleanor, but Joelle swiftly rushed forward, surpassing her in speed. A resounding slap echoed through the air, startling everyone present.
