But now that she thought about it, if she had really done that, Theodore would surely have found out.
"Let's go back to your ward first. I'll tell you what to do," Yerick said, extending his hand.
Aurora took his hand, following him back to the room in a daze. Once inside, she sat on the bed and burst into
tears.
"Theodore lied to me! Why did he lie to me? How could he do this to me?"
She clutched her chest, struggling to catch her breath.
Yerick's lips curled into a cruel smile, and he said seriously, "With your frail health, how can you compete with Rosalie?"
"What should I do, then? It's not my fault that I have bad health! I have no other choice."
Yerick raised an eyebrow. "What if I told you that you do have a choice?"
"What do you mean? Can you help me?" She grabbed his arm, her voice trembling with emotion. "You can help me, right? Please think of a way for me! I can't lose Theo. I've fallen deeply in love with him. If I have to leave him now, I'll go crazy. I'd rather die!"
The more Aurora thought about it, the more agitated she became. She clutched her chest as she almost couldn't breathe.
Yerick pointed at her heart. "This is your best bargaining chip."
"What?" Aurora looked at him in confusion. "Bargaining chip? Are you talking about my heart condition? You want me to use my heart problem to tie him to me?"
Aurora shook her head.
"That won't work. My body is already weak. What if... what if I die? Won't that be a victory for Rosalie? I really want to get better. If only I could get better!"Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"What if you could get better? Yerick said, pinching her chin. "What if I could find a suitable heart for you, and you could have a transplant in Melrine? What do you think?"
Aurora was surprised. "Can it really be done? Do you have the ability to do that?"
"Heh." Yerick laughed. "Do you think I can't?"
Seeing the confidence in Yerick's eyes, Aurora felt a powerful certainty that this man could make it happen.
Yerick handed her a pill. "Break this open. Inside is a drop of liquid. Just one drop. If you drink it, I guarantee your dream will come true."
Aurora looked at the pill in her hand, confused. "What... what is this?"
It was similar to a capsule, with a layer of coating and a single drop of liquid inside.
"This is a good thing. It'll make Theodore stay by your side and take care of you without leaving, and it'll show Rosalie how much he cares about you," Yerick said.
"Won't this medicine harm me?' Aurora felt uneasy, suspecting it wasn't something good.
"Of course it won't." Yerick raised his head and gently stroked her face. "Once you take it, your heart will immediately fail. You'll need a heart transplant within two days, or else you'll die.""
Aurora gasped, quickly pushing his hand away. "No, I can't take this medicine!"
Yerick grabbed her hand and shoved the pill into her palm, then forced her to close her hand around the pill.
"I won't force you to take it if you don't want to," he said, "but I can only tell you that if you do, I can get you a heart. You'll have a healthy heart, and you'll never have to endure the pain of your condition again. You won't have to worry about dying at any moment anymore."
