Lila had heavy bleeding after giving birth to Britney. The doctors basically dragged her back from death, but it left her with a lot of health problems.
When I was young and stylish, I could tough it out, making money while taking care of Britney.
But as I got older, my health just kept getting worse.
When Britney was still in middle school, she got really sick.
Back then it was right in the middle of the high school entrance exams, and Lila was afraid of affecting Britney’s studies, so she just didn’t tell her that she had stayed in the hospital for over half a month.
I didn’t find out she was in the hospital until Britney got home after her
exam.
During Britney’s three years in high school, Lila became a regular at the hospital, and her health just got worse and worse.
She didn’t let the doctor tell Britney about her condition, just said it was anemia caused by malnutrition.
Actually, it was aplastic anemia, and it was severe.
It wasn’t until Britney was a senior in high school that the hospital gave Lila a critical condition notice, and Britney finally found out the
truth.
For Britney, Lila was her world.

The moment the sky collapsed that day, she felt the terror of death for the first time.
The doctor said Lila needed an allogeneic bone marrow transplant as soon as possible.
During that time, Britney was looking everywhere for a suitable bone marrow match, and she even went to ask people from the Harrington family without telling Lila.
But none of them wanted to get tested for a bone marrow match for Lila.
Britney knelt at the Harrington’s house gate for a whole day and night, but in the end, she still couldn’t get that tightly closed door to open.
She always remembered the weather that day, just like today.
It was gloomy, and the cold wind mixed with chilly rain. The cold went right through the bones, freezing to the heart.
But she also always remembered the black umbrella over her head.
That was her first time meeting Rodrick.
Back then, Rodrick was like a ray of light shining into Britney’s dark world.
So in the next seven years, she kept following this light.
And I didn’t hesitate.
It’s just a pity, this light that once lit her up later pushed her into the abyss with its own hands.

In the next few days, Britney still left work on time every day, just like before.
Before getting off work, I printed a resignation letter and neatly put it on Rodrick’s desk.
Maybe one day Rodrick was in a good mood and just approved it?
Even though her idea was kind of wild.
Rodrick was basically not in the office these days, and Britney actually got some peace and quiet.
Of course, Bianca wasn’t there either.
Katheryn chatted with Britney in private about some gossip, saying, Bianca not only hasn’t shown up at the company these days, she hasn’t even clocked in.
Came and went as she pleased, like she really thought she was the boss’s wife at Royarch Capital.
Britney asked one more question, “Did Mr. Livingston know about this?”
“Of course he knew, but he didn’t say anything.” Katheryn pouted, clearly unhappy.
Britney wasn’t surprised.
For Rodrick, everyone had to follow the rules he made, but Bianca was the only one outside the rules.
She was the exception.
This was Rodrick approved.

But Britney wasn’t focused on that. She asked Katheryn, “You mean
Mr. Livingston has been coming to the office these days?”
