Dumped A Scumbag At The Altar For A One Night Stand With A Billionaire-Chapter 121: Your Daughter...

Celine sat frozen, the fluorescent lights buzzing overhead, the distant sounds of the hospital fading to a dull roar in her ears.

Tristan.

The man who had no idea he was a father. Her hands slowly balled into a trembling fist.

How could she call Tristan now? How could she walk into that conversation, what was she supposed to say to him?

Hello Mr Grayson, surprise. We have twins, and one of them is dying and needs your blood.

Just before she could decide what to do a nurse walked into the room to inform,

"Doctor Harvey, we might have a suitable donor."

Celine’s eyes lit up with hope.

"Oh thank heavens!" She heard Rachel’s relieved sigh next to her.

The doctor’s eyes lit up pleasantly, "Have you run the necessary tests?"

"Yes, we were in luck, he just happened to be here on a visit."

"Good news, Mrs Roberts. We’ll carry on with the procedure immediately."

"Thank you..." Celine breathed, her relief almost too heavy she could have crumpled to the floor.

Celine had to sit and wait for further news from the doctors, Leo sat next to her, his hazel eyes unfocused. She could see the sadness in his eyes because he had been unable to help his sister, and she hugged him closer to comfort him.

A nurse came up to her holding some papers, "Ma’am, please fill these forms."

Celine nodded quietly, borrowing a pen from the nurse and filled the necessary information on the forms. Her hand paused when she came to a part where she was supposed to fill the information of the child’s father.

Celine’s mind was in disarray, earlier she had contemplated calling Tristan and explaining everything to him, tell him about the kids even if he would hate her or refuse to accept them, saving Leah was more important.

For a minute she had thought she would throw all caution to the wind. She would call him, beg him if she had to as long as he would save her daughter. If he refused to accept them as his she would plead with him to give her daughter his blood, in exchange she would take them far away and never show up in his life again.

She was willing to do anything, anything at all if her Leah would be saved.

But it was a good thing they found a donor already, she wouldn’t have to go the extra mile.

"She is awake, Leah is awake!" Celine suddenly heard Rachel’s voice yelling in excitement from afar.

"Leah?" Celine almost shot out of her seat to go to her daughter but the nurse stood in front of her reminding her with urgency.

"Ma’am, the forms are really needed right now. Please fill them up and hand them to me."

Nodding, Celine’s hand shakily rushed over the lines on the forms, blindly filling in the information without even thinking about it. The eagerness to see Leah was too overwhelming she skipped some parts on the form, and other parts she subconsciously added a contact number over the top of her head.

If she were asked, she also wouldn’t know exactly why she had written down that phone number, or how she had memorized it, perhaps during the time she had stared at that number, lost in thought and contemplation if she should call him and break the news to him or not had led the digits to fix themselves into her brain, she’d written down the digits as the father’s contact without even realizing it because she was too eager to go to Leah.

Once done, she handed the forms back to the nurse.

The nurse immediately walked away and Celine rushed into the ward to see her daughter whom the doctor advised shouldn’t be too crowded because she was still extremely weak and might lose consciousness again.

The nurse took the forms to the station, the other nurse who was supposed to put down a record of the information on their computer suddenly called, "Nancy, we need the father’s signature on the papers first."

The other nurse at the station reminded. The policies in Neville required the permission of two or more guardians before documents could be officiated if it’s a case regarding a child. Single parents usually filled up the other spots with information from other family members, but here the nurse noticed the woman never ticked the gap of being single or married, she hadn’t even written the father’s name but she had written a phone number in the father’s field.

"Her husband wasn’t here, she filled his information in herself." The nurse who had taken the forms to Celine informed.

"But we need the signature of another guardian, I can’t submit the info until all the slots on the forms are filled."

The other nurse sighed wearily, "She did fill in the father’s phone number right?"

"Oh yes, she did. We should call the father and inform him, maybe she’s in too much of a panic to make the call." The nurse noticed that the phone number was written on the spot that said, father.

The first nurse gave a look of doubt, "If it was so simple, she would have already called the child’s father. What if the child’s father is her ex now and there’s a reason she had not informed him yet."

"We’re just doing our jobs here, it’s none of our business if there’s an awkward relationship between them, without full signatures we can’t proceed with our jobs. She should have called someone else to fill in if the child’s father wasn’t in her life anymore. Besides, I’ve done this so many times, and the matron is going to scold me for not making the call if she finds out later, she says it’s my job to call the patient’s relatives and inform them."

They were newly hired at the hospital and whenever they made mistakes, they usually got scolded, it was best to make decisions themselves according to the hospital rules, otherwise they would get in trouble.

As both nurses pondered over it, they decided to make the call. The nurse held the phone against her ear for a while as it kept ringing on the other side, the line suddenly went silent as no one picked but the other nurse urged her to try one more time.

She called the number again and this time, after ringing several times the phone was picked on the other end.

A deep, masculine voice answered, "Hello."

"Hello, this is Neville city hospital. We’re calling to inform you that your daughter has been admitted into the hospital after an accident..."
