Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 435: Chapter 435: Intercepting Someone

"Of course, would I lie to you? You’re also my child. Stop being mad at me, come with me to the hospital to see your brother." The woman grabbed the girl’s hand and started heading outside.

The onlookers watched as the fiercely arguing mother and daughter suddenly reconciled, losing interest in the drama. Those who needed to catch a flight hurriedly left, discussing the family drama they had just witnessed with the people next to them. noveldrama

Only Xu Ke remained standing, watching the departing figures with furrowed brows. He didn’t believe a single word the mother said, but the girl was once again convinced. Xu Ke originally didn’t want to intervene—in the end, this was their family matter, a dynamic of one willing to speak and the other willing to believe. As an outsider, it wasn’t his place to interfere. But when he thought of the girl’s jet-black eyes and her eyes sparking with the desire to live, his steps paused, and he turned back to follow the mother and daughter attempting to leave.

"Do you really believe what she’s saying?" Xu Ke called out from a distance separating him from the mother and daughter.

The girl’s body visibly stiffened for a moment, as if her legs were no longer obeying, halting where she stood.

The mother, seeing that she was about to trick the girl into the car and to the hospital to save her son, saw Xu Ke disrupting her plans again. Her expression twisted uncontrollably, and the grip on the girl’s arm intensified, quickly making the girl cry out in pain.

"Mom, you’re hurting me." The girl struggled a couple of times, but unable to break free, she showed a distressed expression. The woman, however, either didn’t hear her or pretended not to. Her grip on the girl’s wrist tightened while glaring angrily at Xu Ke, shouting, "What do you want? We don’t know you, our family matters don’t concern you. If you keep interfering, I’ll make you regret it. You’re young with a bright future ahead. You don’t want me to report you to the police for human trafficking, do you?"

Faced with the woman’s threat, Xu Ke laughed, "You can try. In fact, I have some things to report to the police as well, like illegal organ donation." Xu Ke said, enunciating each word clearly.

The woman’s face twisted anew because of Xu Ke.

"What do you want from me? I haven’t wronged you, have I? Why do you have to mess with me?" the woman growled.

"I just don’t want to see a flower of our nation wither prematurely. She’s still young, her life is just beginning, shouldn’t end at this age." Xu Ke glanced at the woman who remained timid and rabbit-like.

"So, should my son die young on the operating table? Do you know how much my son has suffered? He’s not even twenty, yet he’s spent his first half of life in the hospital, never enjoying what he should at his age. He’s never even played basketball. The doctors said that if this surgery succeeds, he can live like a normal person, run, jump, and breathe fresh air outside, eventually get a girlfriend, then marry and have children."

As she spoke, a look of longing appeared on the woman’s face, clearly satisfied with everything she described.

"And what about her? What about your daughter? She’s not even an adult yet, do you want her to just die like this?" Xu Ke glanced at the girl and asked.

Perhaps because the spot they were in was secluded, with no one around, the woman decided to drop her mask entirely. With a tone full of disdain and condescension, she said, "I only gave birth to her to save my son. If she hadn’t been lucky enough to be perfectly compatible as my son’s ideal vessel, do you think she would be alive today?"

"We’ve raised her for over a decade, let her enjoy a life of happiness for years, which is already a great mercy to her. How could she expect more? Now my son needs her, she must come with me and give a kidney to my son. A human body has two kidneys, it’s not a big deal to lose one. If she survives this, she’ll be the family’s benefactor, and I’ll give her anything she wants in the future. If she doesn’t make it, it just means she wasn’t fated to enjoy this blessing. Then, I’ll buy her a well-sited grave to bury her in, fulfilling our mother-daughter relationship in this life."

While saying this, the woman’s expression remained unchanged, as if she really believed it, making her appear particularly cold-blooded and ruthless. People who keep pets for years usually form some sentiment, why can she be so cold-blooded?

"Today is the most crucial day of my son’s life, and no one can stop me. If anyone comes in my way, I’ll fight to the death to make them pay." The woman’s eyes were fiercely venomous, like a highly poisonous cobra; no one would doubt the truth of her words.

"If I hadn’t seen this today, nothing you want to do would concern me. But today I saw and heard this girl’s desire to live. No matter what, I can’t let you take her away today. Whatever you do, I’ll deal with it, but taking her away is not an option." Xu Ke shook his head at the woman, then turned to the girl saying, "Come here."

The girl’s eyes were filled with tears. Of course, if she could choose, she would rather live. The girl began to struggle, but long-term blood and marrow extraction had left her body frail. Even with all her effort, her face turning red, she was unable to break free from the woman’s grip. She could only look at Xu Ke with eyes pleading for help, imploring, "Help me."

Hearing the girl’s plea for help, Xu Ke strode over, using a deft move, easily rescuing the girl from the woman’s grip, receiving a grateful gaze from her.

"Come here at once! You’ve committed a grave offense by breaking free! Get to the hospital immediately! You must come with me today, did you hear?" The woman shouted frantically at her daughter, now protected behind Xu Ke.

She glanced at her watch and realized that her son’s surgery time was approaching fast. The woman was so desperate she could practically devour Xu Ke whole.

She not only imagined it but acted on it, completely shedding her human guise, transforming into a demon as she reached over Xu Ke towards the girl, trying to grab and force her into the car. Yet Xu Ke, like an adept defender, protected the girl without harming the woman, blocking her off entirely, leaving no room for any contact.

"Move aside, time is running out!" The woman screamed loudly.
