Isaac was about to say something, feeling moved.
The door to the ICU opened, and a nurse walked out. "Donna Dustin is awake. She wants to see Ms. Dustin."
Brittany wiped her tears, "Okay."
She followed the nurse out.
Isaac stood there, his face expressionless.
Hannah looked around to ensure no one else was there, then cautiously said, "Mr. Salter, are you okay?"
Being accused by Robert face-to-face was tough to swallow.
"I'm fine."
"Robert is just like that, don't take his words to heart." Hannah comforted, "By the way, about the kidney stuff."
"I'm already on it."
Isaac seemed to remember something, "I've contacted a team of experts from abroad to come over under your family's name. So, don't spill the beans."
What? Faced with his cold gaze, Hannah had no choice but to nod, "Understood."
The ICU was more dangerous than a regular hospital room.
Brittany changed into a protective suit and followed the nurse in. Donna Dustin had just woken up and looked awful.
Brittany's eyes turned red as she walked over and held her hand, "Granny."
She couldn't hold back her tears.
Donna Dustin seemed out of it, but when she heard Brittany's voice, she smiled weakly, "Don't worry, I'm okay."
Brittany's crying got worse, "It's my fault. I couldn't find a kidney."
Her granny wouldn't have suffered so much if she had found it sooner.
Donna Dustin shook her head, "Did Robert come?"
Brittany kept silent and she didn't know how to answer. He did come, but he refused to be a match.
Donna Dustin understood the answer. After a while, she said, "Bri, promise me, don't bother with him anymore."
"Granny, don't leave me, please don't leave me. Granny, you're all I have."
Donna was her only family. She really couldn't lose her.
Donna Dustin wanted to stay with her longer too, but her body wouldn't allow it. After a while, she couldn't even speak.
She had just woken up and was extremely weak. Not long after, she fell asleep again.
When Brittany came out of the ICU, Hannah saw her crying and felt a little sad, "Bri, my brother has contacted experts from abroad. They'll be here soon. Don't worry; your granny will recover."
Hearing this, Brittany felt a glimmer of hope, "Thank you."
Hannah shook her head.
She only helped to contact them. Isaac made a real effort.
That afternoon, with the foreign experts taking over, Donna Dustin's vital signs stabilized. Brittany heaved a sigh of relief.
Before Hannah left, she pulled Brittany aside and handed her something prepared in advance.
"This is Robert's hair and saliva sample. Get them DNA tested as soon as possible."
