Chapter 1131 Probe
In the past, when she had something on her mind and didn't want to tell him, she would just bury her head and sigh quietly, making people feel pity and annoyed. But, this time she seemed to have something on her mind, and her expression didn't show any depression. On the contrary, she seemed to decide what to do secretly.
Lauren remembered what Lucia told Eve that night before she left, so he didn't go into her mind, but patiently waited for her to make her own decision.
On the third day, Nia came to the hotel to "visit" Eve. She said it was a visit, but the purpose was self-evident. It was just to take advantage of Lauren, so she pretended to maintain the sisterhood.
Seeing that her sister didn't talk to her for a few words and then turned to Lauren, Eve pinched her skirt secretly, and suddenly interrupted her,
"Nia, I'm going abroad in a few days."
"Huh?" Nia looked confused.
"Lauren found a professor who can cure my disease in a certain university in the USA. He plans to take me to receive treatment. Maybe it is really hopeful. Anyway, I want to try it, and in this way, you don't have to worry about the blood transfusion all the time." Eve looked at her sister firmly.
This should have been the greatest blessing, but it sounded like a bad news to Nia.
What?! Can her illness be cured?!
Then how can she use her to contain Lauren?!
Nia, who was full of selfish desires, couldn't control her expression at all and didn't notice the disappointment that flashed in Eve's eyes.
"Nia, I have been troubled our parents and you because of my illness. If it can be cured, it will be good for everyone." Eve spoke in a calm voice.
"Eve!" Finally realizing the seriousness of the matter, Nia quickly adjusted her state and grabbed her sister's hand, saying earnestly,
"Don't make a decision rashly. They didn't say that you will be cured, right? You also know that treatment is risky. What if the disease gets worse instead of being cured?!"
"Nia... do you really care about me?" Eve thought in her heart, and said calmly on the surface,
"Even so, I want to try my best. This disease has plagued me for twenty years and dragged down our family for twenty years. I will not give up if I have a chance to be cured." "Eve!" Nia shouted again, squeezing Eve's hand even tighter,
"Don't be stupid! The disease on your body is a genetic disease, a genetic defect, and it can't be cured! Don't take risks, okay? I never care about giving you blood transfusions. As long as I live for a day, I won't stop the healing blood."
"But... I can't rely on you for the rest of my life, can I? Besides... As far as I am concerned, I really hate this useless body. I also want to run freely and breathe smoothly, no longer I need to soak in the medicine all day. I want to give it a go, try to change..."
Before Eve finished speaking, Nia abruptly interrupted her, and her tone became more and more harsh,
"What do you want to change?! Isn't it good for you now? With the medicine prescribed by the previous doctor, my blood, and Lauren's care, this is already the most ideal situation you can get. What are you still dissatisfied with, insisting on taking that risk?! And our blood type is rare. Have you forgotten? If there is any problem in the treatment process, and who can help you when you're oversea?"
"Nia, don't you want to see me get rid of my illness?" Eve didn't seem to hear Nia's "advice", but looked straight into her eyes and asked.
Nia's voice froze for a moment, and the phrase "of course not" almost blurted out, but she still controlled it, and turned her voice softly.
"How could it be? Of course I hope that you will be healthy, but I am also afraid of the risks during the treatment process. Be good and listen to my words. Don't go. USA is so far away, and the journey is exhausting. What if you can't stand it on the way there?"
Nia's reasons were so far-fetched.
Eve pursed her lips silently.
Nia thought she had convinced Eve and continued to say self-righteously while secretly laughing,
"Eve, just listen to me. What's more, you forgot why Lauren is so good to you? Do you know how many women want to climb up to him because of his status? You are special because of your weak temperament which can most arouse the pity and care of men. If you really cured the disease, are you sure Lauren will still like you so much?"
"Nia," Eve's eyes were filled with grievance and sorrow that people like Nia would never understand. "Do you want me to use my illness as a tool to keep Lauren?"
Nia answered,
"What's the big deal? Everyone is selfish and has to consider themselves in everything. Anyway, your illness won't be life-threatening as long as you take good care of yourself. Plus, it can help you win Lauren's heart smoothly. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"
Hearing Nia say this, Eve felt that her sister in front of her was a stranger. Indeed, her illness wouldn't be fatal and she could live for many years if she received proper treatment. However, the constant fatigue from being bedridden for years, the weakness and helplessness during an attack of illness, and the worry from family members were all not worth mentioning in Nia's eyes?
Eve had known that she might face such an answer but experiencing it firsthand made her unable to breathe.
When Arthur suggested using this matter to test her sister's intentions, Eve did have some reservations deep down inside. However, reality was really fragile; once tested out people's hearts could be seen through.
At this moment, Nia still didn't notice Eve's thoughts and continued to advise her with a sisterly attitude,
"A woman needs some tricks up her sleeve to firmly grasp a man's heart. You have always been unwilling to take the initiative to climb into Lauren's bed. Your relationship will break at any time if you don't use your illness as leverage on him! Have you forgotten about the woman he brought back last time? Don't you feel any sense of crisis?"
"Nia," Eve finally spoke up after remaining silent all along. Her voice was low like it was hidden behind smog,NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
"Do you actually not want me to recover at all?"
Nia froze for a moment upon hearing these words before awkwardly laughing and answering, "How could that be!"
"If I hadn't met Lauren, would you still treat me so well?" Eve seemed more like asking herself than asking Nia.
Nia's expression became even more rigid upon hearing this question while tightly holding onto Eve's hand with an extremely artificial tone, "How could that be? Why would you think such strange thoughts?"
