CHAPTER 2330
This reveal stunned Joshua.He stiffly turned his head to look at Luke.
Luke was in a bad mood because of the doctor.He sat on the couch, drinking his coffee and not
bothering to hear what Joshua and the doctor were talking about.
To him, the doctor was an irresponsible person who liked to exaggerate everything, and he refused to
waste time on such a person.
Joshua squeezed his eyebrows tightly as he looked at Luke.
With the phone in hand, he took a few steps backward unconsciously and pressed the phone closer to
his ear, afraid Luke might overhear what the doctor said.
"Will it affect the result if she doesn't go through with terminating the child's life?"
The ambiguous question had the doctor puzzled.It took him some time to realize that Joshua was
asking if the heart transplant surgery would be affected if Gwen decided to keep the baby.
"Yes, it'll affect it greatly."
The doctor took a deep breath.
"Even though Ms.Larson is still very early in her pregnancy term, once she's carrying the baby in her
womb, her body condition will change easily.The condition of her heart and vomiting blood will
deteriorate.If she keeps the baby, the baby might not make it during the transplant, and Ms.Larson
could suffer from a hemorrhage, too."
The doctor continued, "I know this is a difficult decision to make, but they have to do it.Ms.Larson's
body can't afford to have this baby now."
The doctor eventually lamented, "Ms.Larson has had such a difficult life.After her miscarriage, she was
tormented to find out her chances of getting pregnant is very low.Who knew that she'd be diagnosed
with this illness and be pregnant before the transplant! "But for the sake of her body, she must not keep
the baby..." This belongs to : ©.
Joshua tightened his grip on the phone.
"Could there be any other solutions?"
He knew Luke was determined to donate his heart to Gwen, and as Luke's friend, he respected Luke's
wishes and would not protest so vehemently.
However...
If their baby could live to see the world, then it would be a gift that Luke left behind when he was no
longer with them, DBr)]xNK Gwen would also be less sad.
He and Luna could help Gwen to take care of the baby and reminisce about Luke together, too.
Having that thought in his mind, Joshua took a deep breath.
"Try harder to think."
"It's impossible, Mr.Lynch."
The doctor sighed.
"Mr.Jones can give up the heart transplant and choose the conservative treatment approach for
Ms.Larson.However, the treatment comes with great risk.Ms.Larson will need to be in the hospital
every day during her pregnancy, and she has to stay in bed all the time.By doing so, we'll be able to
save her if her heart stops working, or when her heart fails to cope with her body, within the best time
frame.So..."
Joshua shut his eyes for a while before looking at Luke.
"I understand," he replied hoarsely.
"I'll talk to him."
Joshua then hung up the phone.
"What did he say?"
Luke rolled his eyes when he saw Joshua finish talking to the doctor.He snatched his phone and put it
aside before asking casually, "This doctor has a penchant for disrupting my day when I'm at an
inconvenience.It's worse that he likes to exaggerate, too."
