Save First Love, Give Up Son And Wife

My five-year-old son was diagnosed with leukemia，but my husband allocated the life-saving slot to his first love’s daughter,desperately,let’s get divorced!

My five-year-old son, Alex Jones, was diagnosed with leukemia.

Despite this, my doctor husband, Rick Jones, was fixated on Jenny Lane's daughter, Mia Lane.

Just when we found a suitable bone marrow match, Rick allocated the life-saving slot to Jenny's daughter.

"Lisa, you're already pregnant. Alex can wait for umbilical cord blood to save him," Rick said.

On the day my son left me, the rain poured heavily, his weak form nestled in my arms.

"Mom, I want to see Dad again," Alex whispered.

——

"Alex, when you're discharged, I'll take you to the amusement park, okay?"

I gently touched Alex's swollen hand, his eyes filled with stars.

Alex's eyes lit up with anticipation as he looked up at me.

"Really? Will dad go with us?"

My heart skipped a beat. It had been five days since I last saw Rick.

Even on the day of Alex's bone marrow transplant surgery, he was nowhere to be found.

Rick was the top hematologist in Aromac City.

I had hoped his expertise would save Alex when Alex was diagnosed, but I was wrong.

In Rick's heart, there was Jenny, a woman who had just divorced and whose daughter was also ill.

The moment Jenny's fragile figure appeared before Rick, his balance shifted.

Apart from consultations and surgeries, Rick spent most of his time with Jenny and her daughter.

My dissatisfaction and Alex's yearning for his father were dismissed by Rick as unreasonable and irrational.

He said, "Jenny is a woman going through a tough time after a divorce, and now her child is sick. Can't you be more understanding?

"Why do you always compare the children? Yes, Alex is my child, but isn't Mia also suffering without a father and battling leukemia?

"If there were something between Jenny and me, would I still marry you? Would you still give birth to Alex?"

Rick's impatience resonated vividly in my memory.

Alex gently shook my hand, bringing me back from my thoughts.

"Mom, I know Dad is busy. He'll come see me when I'm better, right?"

I hugged his small body, nodding in reassurance, but an inexplicable anxiety lingered within me.

It was already 1 PM, half an hour past the scheduled surgery time.

After comforting Alex, I headed towards the nurses' station.

At the sight of me, those nurses all gave me an awkward smile and avoided eye contact.

"Alex's mom."

I asked anxiously, "Wasn't Alex scheduled for surgery today?

"Why hasn't anyone come to notify us yet?"

The nurse looked at me with some surprise.

"Alex's surgery was canceled. Didn't you know?"

The nurse's words hit me hard.

"Canceled? But we found a suitable bone marrow donor. Why the sudden change?" I questioned, struggling to comprehend.

"Dr. Jones canceled it. The donor matched a girl in Room 5, so..."

The nurse gave me a sympathetic gaze with no further explanation.

Stunned, I managed to gather my thoughts.

"Where is Rick?" I demanded.

"He's in surgery."

Ignoring her warning, fueled by anger, I rushed towards the operating room.

I thought, "I pulled strings and searched through all bone marrow registries to secure this opportunity. Why should Rick give it to Jenny?"

"Alex's mom, it's too late. The surgery has been ongoing for four hours."

The nurse's desperate cries fell on deaf ears as I continued towards the closed doors of the operating room.

The red light above the door felt glaring.

Jenny sat with her head bowed outside the operating room. When she saw me, she hurriedly stood up on the side.

"Rick, come out here!

"Rick, how dare you... how dare you give Alex's surgery spot to someone else?"

I pounded on the operating room door like a madwoman.

"Lisa, why are you here?"

Jenny stood by nervously, seemingly shocked by my appearance.

I grabbed her by her clothes and slapped her pale face.

Jenny covered her face, her expression one of disbelief.

"Why are you so fond of grabbing things from others? Isn't stealing my husband enough for you? Now you want to snatch the life-saving spot for my son?"

Chapter 2

The commotion attracted the security guard from inside.

"Miss, please calm down. There's a surgery going on inside."

Ignoring him, I repeatedly called Rick's phone.

But each time, all I heard was the busy tone till a sense of coldness washed over me, and I slumped to the ground.

"How dare he? That's Alex's life-saving spot," I murmured through tears, feeling helpless and defeated.

Since Alex fell ill, I had never let my guard down and was always on edge.

I even pleaded with Rick, with a hint of desperation, to give me another child. I wanted umbilical cord blood. I was willing to try any method to get it.

All my efforts seemed to crumble at that moment.

The operating room door slowly creaked open, and Rick, in surgical attire, emerged.

"The surgery was successful," Rick announced.

As he saw me in disarray on the ground, Rick's face clouded with displeasure.

"Why are you here instead of looking after Alex?"

"Lisa might have known about Mia's surgery and felt uneasy, so she came. It's fine. I understand her distress," Jenny interjected, covering her face with a sympathetic look.

At the sight of Jenny's face, Rick's expression turned stony, his brows furrowed.

"Did she hit you?" Rick asked, removing Jenny's hand covering her face.

Jenny quickly held onto his hand, looking pitiful.

"Rick, I'm fine. As long as it calms Lisa down, I don't mind," Jenny assured, wearing a facade of understanding.

Faced with Jenny's hypocritical display, I erupted in a loud yell.

"Then why don't you just die? Why don't you just die?"

Rick shielded Jenny behind him immediately.

"Lisa, what's gotten into you? This is a hospital. Why are you behaving so maliciously and irrationally?"

Pointing towards the operating room, I questioned loudly, "Irrational? Why did you give the life-saving spot to her when it's meant for my son?

"If you want to be with Jenny, just say it. I'll give her Mrs. Jones' position. Why use my son's life-saving spot to win her over?"

Frowning, Rick stared at me and said impatiently, "You should know Mia needs this spot more urgently than Alex. Mia can't wait any longer.

"Lisa, you're already pregnant. Alex can wait a bit longer for the cord blood that can save him. Why are you losing your mind here?"

Rick's words pierced through me like an invisible knife, causing my heart to bleed as I touched my slightly bulging belly.

"Rick, do you only consider Jenny's child to be worth saving? Does my child not matter to you?" I asked with a cold stare at the man I had loved throughout my youth.

Rick's eyes still showed disdain and impatience.

"Lisa, are you the doctor or am I? I've already told you, Mia's condition has worsened and can't wait any longer. Alex's overall health is stronger than Mia's, he can wait a bit longer."

Before I could retort, a nurse rushed towards us from a distance, shouting at Rick.

"Dr. Jones, it's not good. Alex suddenly developed a high fever, his heart rate is dropping rapidly, he's showing signs of shock."

Hearing that, I felt the world spinning around me, and I collapsed against the wall.

Chapter 3

Rick's face turned pale, and he dashed off with the nurse.

I forced myself up and hurried after them.

Before reaching Alex's room, I saw a group of medical staff stuffing his ward.

Rick stood there by the bed, frowning, holding a defibrillator.

Alex lay motionless, his clothes lifted and various monitors attached to his body.

Feeling a rush of fear, I fought to contain my trembling, too scared to make a sound.

It felt as though my heart was tied to the fluctuating heart rate on Alex's monitor, every movement tugging at my own heart.

Finally, Alex's heart rate began to stabilize. Rick seemed to let out a sigh of relief.

For the first time, Rick, almost resembling a father, tenderly caressed Alex's freshly shaved head.

As Rick emerged, his expression somewhat guilty, I rushed up and slammed my fist into him.

"Rick, if anything happens to Alex, I'll hold you responsible!"

Rick pushed me angrily.

"Are you out of your mind, Lisa? Can't you see Alex is fine?"

"You should know, I secured that spot for Alex through my connections. Now you've gave it to Jenny. You should know the consequences." I pointed at Rick, speaking in a low voice.

Rick snorted coldly and walked away.

After that, I didn't dare leave Alex's side for even a moment.

Late at night, Alex finally woke up, grabbing my hand and looking at me with joy.

"Mom, is my surgery done? Can I go to the amusement park soon?"

Looking at his hopeful face, I didn't know how to respond.

I turned away, afraid for him to see the tears welling in my eyes.

Weakly, Alex lifted his hand and tugged at my sleeve.

"Mom, stop crying, it makes me feel bad."

Outside, a heavy rain started, the droplets drumming against the windows, unsettling me.

I looked at Alex's pallid face and started feeling afraid.

I embraced Alex, feeling the heat radiating from his feverish body.

Alex murmured weakly, "Mom, I know Dad operated on Jenny's daughter today. I know, but I envy her.

"Mom, I want to be healthy too, want to grow up by your side, but I hurt so much."

Tears streaming down my face, I held him tightly.

"Alex, don't speak. You will get better, I will save you as soon as the baby is born. Just wait a little longer," I reassured him.

Alex rested his head on my belly, finding solace in my embrace.

"Great, I'll have a little sister in the future. But I may not be able to see her. Mom, you have to remember to apologize to her on behalf of me."

I couldn't tell if it was because of tears in his eyes or mine, Alex's gaze gradually becoming vacant.

"Mom, I want to see Dad again."

I cried out desperately, watching the heart rate on the monitor gradually decline, frantically pressing the nurse call button.

"Help, someone, please, save my child, please, please save my child!

"Alex, please, hold on a little longer, okay? I'm begging you."

Alex raised his small hand and touched my face, smiling.

"Mom, don't cry. I'm happy to be your child. In the next life, I want to be your child again, okay?"

I nodded through tears.

"You'll always be my child. Alex, don't sleep, look at me, okay?"

But Alex's hand slowly drooped, and his eyes closed gently……

A group of people in white rushed into the ward. I could no longer distinguish whether they were doctors or angels.
