“The hospital ran a check-up for her and found out that her heart is weak, and she is in need of a heart
transplant. I can only achieve a thirty percent success rate, but you…” Benjamin paused before he
continued. “You can reach seventy percent.”
Molly was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone.
Benjamin sighed and said, “Molly, you can make your own decision about this. Even if you don’t do it, no
one will blame you. Don’t be too hard on yourself.”
Molly listened quietly and answered, “Got it.” She was extremely calm as it only felt like she was listening
to a stranger’s condition.
In the night, Molly could not sleep after she had tucked in the triplets.
She tossed and turned on her bed for a few hours before she went down to grab a bottle of wine. She
then headed out to the pavilion in her backyard with the bottle in hand and sat down. The night was dark,
and the wind was chillingly piercing. She had a jacket on her as if she could not feel the cold. She then
poured herself a glass of wine and lay against the back of the bench.
The night was cold, and the breeze surrounded her before it swallowed her seemingly calm body.
Molly found it strange as the wine lingered on her lips. “Why aren’t I drunk after a sip of wine like last
time? I’m getting more awake instead.’
novelbinShe raised the glass and looked at the wine carefully. She then shook her head and thought,’ It’s
definitely because this wine is not as strong as the one in the Fort’s house.’
Suddenly, Molly’s phone screen lit up in her pocket. She squinted to see the notification on the screen.‘Why is he calling me at this hour?’ She answered the call but did not speak.
Sean sat by the window in his study with his phone next to his ear as his eyes were fixated on a slim
figure. “Why are you drinking alone?”
Sean had a habit of staying by the window after he was done with work to have some quiet time and rest
his tired eyes.
His voice was firm yet soothing.
It was as if Molly had found a ray of light in the darkness. She looked up toward the light source and saw
Sean by the window to his study on the second floor.
Their eyes locked as their gaze intertwined in the air.
The surrounding was quiet, accompanied by the sound of nature.
Molly smiled and gripped her phone. “Are you going to give me some company down here?”
She realized she tended to have the urge to depend on this man as she remembered that he had been
by her side during her tough times.
Sean was delighted to hear Molly’s invitation. “Sure.”
After some time, Sean went over in his pajamas. He could not walk, so it took him some time to get
there. When he saw her standing before him, the joy in his heart tripled.
But Molly frowned when she saw him. “Give me a sec.”
It did not take long for her to walk back out of her house with a blanket and a juice in hand.” You can only
drink this.”Sean grinned as he took the juice and looked at the person who was putting the blanket on him. In an
instant, the coldness around him vanished.
Molly sat back at her spot and touched Sean’s glass with hers before taking another sip of wine. “Are you
alright?” Molly heard Sean asking her.
She was silent for a while. When she turned, she realized that he had been staring at her and
immediately felt his concern. Finally, she started to feel sad.
She then told Sean everything about Lara’s condition.
