If Xavia made the decision that she and Zivon could try to make it work for the sake of their feelings, then perhaps Zivon would really be able to solve everything. However, now there was a baby in the picture… and that was a bigger issue than public opinion.
How could the members of the Burton family possibly accept her being with Zivon when she was carrying Keith’s baby?
Keith would not agree to it either!
How would the baby address Keith in the future? How would the baby address Zivon? These questions were even more frightening than the fact that she was Jenna’s younger sister…
Nonetheless, Xavia could not bring herself to give up the baby.
In such an uncertain and hopeless situation, she was still gambling on her grandmother’s life…
“Miss.” At that moment, the doctors exited the room.
Xavia quickly went up to them and asked nervously, “Doctor, what happened to my grandmother? How is she doing now?”
The head surgeon looked at Xavia and said firmly, “Miss, the patient’s health has deteriorated further and she is now in critical condition. We have only temporarily stabilized her. I have to inform the attending doctor that the surgery must be done in an hour. However…”
The doctor paused for a moment before he continued sympathetically, “Due to the patient’s physical condition, the success rate of the surgery has been lowered once again. You have to prepare yourself for the worst.”
Xavia was taken aback. “How much lower? What is the success rate now?”
The doctor sighed helplessly and said, “Around twenty percent, Miss, but we will definitely do our best. Please wait outside the surgery room later to sign the surgical form.”
The doctor then turned around and walked away.
Xavia’s heart felt like it had dropped to her stomach. The success rate had plummeted from sixty percent to twenty percent…
How could Grandma pull through this in her current condition?
‘And her unworthy granddaughter is going to make her suffer on the operating table.’
‘You’re betting on your grandmother’s life for the sake of an uncertain love.’
Jenna’s words suddenly echoed in Xavia’s mind. Her face turned pale and her body felt weak.
“Grandmother, baby, Zivon.” Images of those three people flashed in her mind. At this moment, she could not bet on her grandmother’s life, nor could she abort the baby…
Even though she did not want things to go back to how they used to be with Zivon, she had to make a choice.
