Chapter 492: Chapter 492

Seeing her husband Julian Zane’s attitude softening, Ariana Evans quickly stopped crying and struck while the iron was hot.

"Titus is healthier than Lily; even if we give his heart to her, it can sustain her for a few years, and by then, if a suitable donor appears, she can undergo surgery again..."

If an accident occurs, legally speaking, as his mother, upon investigation, she only has the status of a stepmother and has no decision-making power.

However, it is different for Julian Zane—he is Titus Zane’s biological father, and in the hospital, for the section requiring family member signatures, only Julian Zane’s signature holds validity.

Therefore, surgery can only proceed if Julian Zane agrees and signs the document; with his signature, even if Titus encounters a life-threatening situation during surgery, the surgeon in charge will not have to bear any legal responsibility.

Moreover, if a real accident were to occur, the most the hospital might need to do is offer compensation, and she, as a family member, can proactively state she does not require compensation.

Ariana Evans had all these thoughts years ago, so getting a heart transplant for her daughter Olivia Zane principally meant getting past her husband Julian Zane first.

And she was confident that he would agree.

Indeed, after Julian Zane took a few more puffs of his cigarette, he nodded, "We can only decide on this for now."

The life of his youngest daughter is in danger; they can only wrong the eldest daughter first.

He lifted his head again, and Julian Zane’s gaze seemed somewhat dull.

"Does Titus know about this?"

Ariana Evans licked her lips guiltily, "We haven’t told him yet, but Titus is so kind he will surely agree, besides, I’ve always treated him like my own. He wouldn’t want to see me upset, let alone allow his own sister to lose her life."

Julian Zane looked away and nodded again, "Well, that’s good, that’s good..."

Having persuaded her husband Julian Zane, Ariana Evans then started to arrange the surgery.

Titus Zane noticed that these past two days, Olivia Zane has been unexplainably enthusiastic towards him.

She invited him to go shopping together this weekend and even suggested they should buy some warm cotton clothes...

Feeling uneasy about Olivia Zane’s sudden warmth, Titus politely declined twice, excusing that his injury had not fully healed and he did not wish to go out, but after Olivia’s persistent badgering, he directly refused. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NovєlFіre.net

"I’ll be going back overseas in a few days; I don’t need any cotton clothes, buying them would just be a waste."

That night, Nathan Moore gave him a supplementary card, which he put in the drawer. Nathan said he would take him to the shopping mall this weekend...

So, he still wanted to go with Nathan.

Unable to secure a meeting with Titus, Olivia Zane felt anxious. As for Nathan, if it had been three years ago, she wouldn’t be worried, but now she fears Nathan might stop her when she tries to take Titus away.

...These past two nights she secretly observed, noticing that every time it was almost dawn, he would go to Titus’s room...

Hiding in her room, after thinking all afternoon, Olivia Zane finally came up with a plan. Before, when she had been "bullied" by Titus, Nathan would get angry, so she just needed to play out a scene in front of Nathan, then alert her mother to wait outside...

On Saturday, after lunch, Nathan Moore went out to handle some business. Ewan Zimmerman called, saying that the woman named Bella Zimmerman had been detained by the airport police.

Not wanting his woman to witness his violent side, Nathan Moore did not take Titus with him.

Before dinner, Olivia Zane called him, and after hearing that Nathan would be back for dinner, not sure what happy event had occurred, she sent away Aunt Liu, insisting on cooking herself, and even called Titus to help her.

As for cooking, Titus was no stranger; he used to cook for himself in Paris, so washing and chopping vegetables, he handled everything with ease, and Olivia Zane also made a pig’s trotter soup,

claiming that Nathan liked to drink it.

While the two sisters were busy in the kitchen, Nathan had already returned, and before he even had the chance to sit at the dining table, a cry of alarm came from the kitchen—it was Olivia Zane’s voice, sounding as though something accidental had happened.

Nathan Moore hurried into the kitchen, and the scene in front of him made his handsome face instantly turn cold.
