The doctor was stunned. “Everyone in the hospital says you two are a couple, deeply in love. Many young nurses look up to your story as proof that true love exists. How could you be her sister’s husband?”
Harry Lee said firmly, “My wife is the one who donated a kidney to her, but she was upset with
me and was discharged early.”
The doctor was speechless. “The person who donated a kidney to Ms. Sue is your wife?” Harry Lee looked at the doctor’s face, puzzled, and asked, “Yes? What’s wrong with her?”
The doctor began to avoid eye contact.
At that moment, not far away, loud voices broke through. Grandmother pushed past my parents, who were trying to hold her back, determined to find me.
“Harry, come tell me–where did Quinn go?”
My parents couldn’t stop Grandmother, who was desperate to find me.
At the same time, my parents started to feel confused.
Because just as Grandmother was causing the biggest commotion, they had tried calling me repeatedly, but no matter how many times they called, I couldn’t be reached.
“Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit strange. Harry, do you know where Quinn has gone? She’s been missing for far too long this time!”
Of course, Harry Lee also wanted to know where I was.
But at this very moment, what he wanted to know most was the truth about the kidney
donation.
“I can tell you where Quinn is.”
Harry Lee began to deceive my grandmother,
“But you have to tell me who exactly was the one who donated a kidney to me back then.”
Grandmother was stunned after hearing Harry Lee’s words.
On one hand, he wanted to know my whereabouts; on the other, there was the truth I had
warned her never to reveal.
In the end, the urge to find out what happened to me won out.
Grandmother revealed the story from those years.
When I was little, my parents didn’t pay attention to me; they only cared about Joy Sue and always left me at Grandmother’s house, so I grew up with her.
That year, a natural disaster struck. Grandmother made a living by farming and barely earned anything.
Seeing the poor harvest and the little grain left at home, I went to ask my parents for money.
D Back then, I thought my parents were also Grandmother’s children; even if they didn’t lov
me, they wouldn’t just stand by and let Grandmother starve.
But I never expected my parents to actually reject me.
They would rather see Grandmother go hungry than risk spending money on me.

Of course, Harry Lee also wanted to know where I was.

In the end, heartbroken for Grandmother and with nowhere else to turn, I donated a kidney and received a family compensation payment.
That kidney was given to Harry Lee.
By the time Grandmother learned the truth, it was already too late; the surgery had been
completed.
And during the time I spent in the hospital after donating the kidney, I fell in love with Harry Lee–the man who received my organ.
“I’ve kept this secret in my heart for so many years, and every time I think about it, I can’t help but burst into tears.“Grandmother was sobbing uncontrollably.
Harry Lee stood there, frozen in shock.
When they forced me to donate a kidney to Joy Sue, they never once considered that I only had one kidney left.
