"It's going to be alright, Nicole. Trust me. I will not let anything happen to Jay. I will keep him safe at all costs,"
Kerr promised to Nicole.
He was aware of how important Jay was to Nicole. If anything were to happen to Jay, he knew that Nicole would be devastated.
In fact, she would probably lose the desire to live.
"Where is he? I want to see him right now, I want to accompany him!"
She lifted the quilt and attempted to get out of bed, but her head started to get dizzy before she could even sit up.
"Don't worry, Nicole. I've called the best doctor I could find to take care of him. I assure you that he will be fine."
He stood up and gently pressed Nicole on the bed so she would not attempt to sit up again. He gave her a firm look and hoped that he looked as confident as his words.
In all honesty, Kerr himself wasn't all that sure about Jay's condition. He had just talked to the doctor a while ago but he could not find the courage to tell Nicole anything. He was afraid that it would just worry her more. Her condition was unstable enough as it was. He feared that if he said anything, it might worsen.
"I want to see my son, please!" she pleaded desperately. "I am not a good mother. All of it is my fault. I didn't take good care of him. His life was put at risk because of me. It's all my fault…"
Nicole couldn't stop blaming herself. At that moment, she wished that she could trade places with her son and take all of his pain.
All she could think of was her son's small face. Jay was always much more mature and sensible compared to other children in his age group. It was because of that reason that Nicole had felt that she did not pay enough attention to him as his mother. Sometimes, she would end up unconsciously neglecting his needs.
This accident was an event that Nicole blamed herself for. If she hadn't been so distracted, there wouldn't have been such a terrible car accident. If only she had remembered to fasten the seat belt for Jay, he would have been alright.
"Nicole, listen to me. The doctor hasn't said anything yet. Don't blame yourself for what happened. It was not your fault, Nicole. It was an accident
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
t Jay's condition was critical at this point. Looking at the nervous expression on her face, Jared found himself suddenly lost for words.
Nicole looked at Jared anxiously as if she was waiting for death to come and end her suffering. She seemed to have suddenly forgotten how to breathe.
Before Jared could come up with what to say, Ken rushed into the room.
"How is it going in here?"
When Ken saw the hesitant look on Jared's face and Kerr's confused eyes, he knew immediately that Jared hadn't informed them yet of the doctor's news. He turned his gaze to Nicole.
"Well, what the hell are you waiting for? Nicole, listen to me. Jay is in critical condition and badly needs a blood transfusion. The hospital doesn't have his blood type. You are his mother, so you should be able to give him some of yours. How are you feeling right now?"
Ken was aware that Nicole was also badly hurt, but there was no time to waste. Each second that passed was another chance they missed to save Jay's life. The boy's blood type was a little unique and all of theirs failed to match it. Jay's only hope was his mother, Nicole.
"Okay!"
"No way!"
Nicole and Kerr said simultaneously.
Nicole answered without any hesitation. As long as she could save Jay's life, she would even gladly offer her own life. She was his mother, she was responsible for him no matter what. She would do anything for him.
Besides, this was only a blood transfusion.
