Chapter 140
People she knew wouldn’t call from an unknown number, and they definitely wouldn’t disturb her sleep at this hour.
All the Mercer family’s numbers were blocked. If she had to guess, it was one of them calling from someone else’s phone.
Mira ignored it and went back to sleep.
When she woke up the next morning, she went straight to the garden to practice Taekwondo. It was only when she came back inside for breakfast that she turned her phone on.
A flood of missed call notifications popped up, all from different unknown numbers. Her intuition told her something had happened with the Mercer family.
She didn’t know the specifics. In her past life, nothing major had happened to them around this time.
She decided to ignore it for now, deleted the notifications, and focused on her meal.
But after a few bites, her phone rang again. This time, Mira didn’t hang up, curious to hear what was going on.
Biting into a breakfast sandwich, Mira answered the call.
“Why was your phone off last night? You heartless girl! Do you know your sister was admitted to the ICU last night? Her life is in danger p>
It was Lacey, her voice choked with tears.
*Mara’s in trouble? In the ICU?* Mira thought. *Could Natalie have done this p>
She didn’t expect Natalie to be so ruthless.
Mira patiently listened, wanting to get more information. Suddenly, Lucas’s voice came through the phone.
“Mom, this is no time for rambling! Mira, get to St. Meridian Medical Center right now. Mara needs a blood transfusion. We’ll agree to any condition you name afterward p>
Mira suddenly remembered: she and Mara both had Rh-negative blood, a trait inherited from Adrian.
Her four brothers had Lacey’s blood type, which was different.
Mara must have lost a lot of blood last night, and the hospital’s supply was low. That blood type was rare, and there wasn’t much of it in all of Melvion City.
“Heh, so you remember me now? Unfortunately, I’m not interested in any conditions the Mercer family has to offer p>
Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Lacey again. “Mira, she’s your biological sister. She’s your own flesh and blood, Miral If youre willing to come, well all apologize to you. I’m begging you as your mother p>
“Mother? Ha! What mother do I
a! What
have? You were the ones who chose
Mara. Back then, Adrian said he
wouldn’t care if I died on the streets, and athof you agreed. So w why should the fife or death of anyone in the Mercer family have anything to do with me? The moment I walked out of that house, we severed all ties. Wake up, Lacey. Ms. Quinn p>
“Mira, Mara needs you to save her life. Can you please stop being so petty? If you come to the hospital and donate blood for her, we
promise, we’ll agree
Wenee to anything
her side again,
okay p>
Mira was about to say, *Too late, I don’t need you anymore,* when she heard Adrian’s voice.
“If she’s willing to help, she can return to the Mercer family immediately. We can even give her shares in the group p>
“You’re really going to great lengths for Mara,” Mira said dryly.
She wondered what he would think in the future when Mara was the one to bring about his downfall. Mira was looking forward to it.
Suddenly, she didn’t want to hang up anymore. She wanted to hear just how far the Mercer family would go for Mara. It was like watching a drama unfold.
Then she heard Damon say, “If you agree to give Mara a transfusion, we’ll let you join Mercer Vision Entertainment and give you the best resources p>
“Oh? The best what resources p>
“We just invested in a movie and have the right to cast the lead role. It’s yours p>
“But I’m in school. I’m not interested in acting p>
“You can pick anything you want from our resources p>
“I’m not interested in any of them p>
Mira continued eating, listening as they took turns trying to persuade her with threats, bribes, and emotional appeals.
When she was interested, she’d reply. When she wasn’t, she’d simply ignore them.
Suddenly, she heard a medical professional in the background ask, “Have you found
a donor yet? The patient is in critical condition p>
Julian’s voice exploded through the speaker. ‘Stop playing games with her! Just drag her here and take it by force p>
