Mrs. Walton sighed. âHer treatment is over. Sheâs back in the country.â Back then, Emily had the same illness as Helena. It was just that Helena did not get a suitable match, but Emily did. However, Emilyâs family was very poor. She did not know how she met Helena. Helena was happy for her and even asked George to help Emily pay for the medical fees. How could George bear to refuse? Besides, he could afford a few million yuan for the treatment. To the Walton family, this little money was nothing. Later, Emily went overseas for treatment with the Walton familyâs funding. Later, Helena went missing. The
Walton family was looking for her. They were exhausted by this matter and no one remembered Emily anymore.
Amelia played with the eggs as she ate. Suddenly, the eggs stood still and fell with a thud. She pointed at George. Amelia exclaimed.
At about ten in the morning, a guest came to the house. It was a girl in plain clothes who looked to be in her twenties or forties.
âHello, Mrs. Walton. Iâm Emily. Do you remember me?â Emily looked nervous as she tugged at her clothes.
Mrs. Walton smiled kindly. âI remember. Sit.â
Emily glanced uneasily at the sofa and said, âUm, I think Iâll pass. That sofa looks so expensive. Iâm not worthyâŠâ
Mrs. Walton: â
Amelia: â
Emily, who had said that she was not worthy of sitting on such an expensive sofa, looked at George. âBrother George, Iâm here to thank you today. If you hadnât given me money to go for treatment back then, I might have died long ago, but I donât know how to repay you. My family is very poor⊠I donât know what I can give youâŠâ She bit the corner of her lips and stirred her clothes uneasily.
Amelia: â???â She looked at this auntie called Emily strangely and felt that her behavior was strange.
Helena said in surprise, âItâs Emily.â
Amelia asked quietly, âMom, is she a friend of yours?â
Helena recalled. âI guess she was a sickmate. In the past, when I was treated in the hospital, I would walk around the garden when I could get out of bed. That was when I met Emily.â After chatting with Emily, she realized that she had the same illness as her and even said sadly that she was not going to treat it.
Helena: âI asked her why she didnât want to receive treatment. I even encouraged her not to give up hope. She said that her family sold their car and house to treat her. They were originally ordinary people in a small county. One illness exhausted all their assetsâŠ
Helena sympathized with Emily at that time. Seeing that she wanted to give up the treatment and choose to be discharged, her father squatted at the side and did not say a word. Her mother was silently wiping her tears. Her heart softened and she gave them the treatment fee.
Helena: âThe second time we met, it was already a month later. It was time for Emilyâs chemotherapy again. She told me that she was making a fuss and said that she wouldnât come for treatment, but in order to treat her, her father drew blood and sold it for money. Her mother knelt and begged herâŠâ After saying this, Emily looked at Helena enviously. She said that she lived in a VIP ward and enjoyed the best medical resources. She never had to worry about money, but she was different. She was prepared to die at any time. She even wanted to jump off a building to end herself and free her parents.
Helena: âI think Emilyâs family is really pitiful. I slowly became friends with her like this. Later, I paid for every hospitalization she received.â After all, money meant nothing to her at that time. She was not a Virgin Mary, but she saw the same despair in Emily. She hoped that others would be well, so could she. Seeing others well, she seemed to have a trace of hope in her heart.
Amelia was enlightened. So that was how it was.
Helena: âThe last time I saw Emily was probably when I was lying down and couldnât get up. She came to the VIP ward herself and found me. She cried and said goodbye to me. I asked her what was wrong. She said that she had found a suitable bone marrow match, but a whole bone marrow replacement chemotherapy would cost millions. It wasnât something her family could afford at all. At that time, Emily cried and asked me why the heavens were so cruel. They gave her hope and made her despair again.. In that case, she might as well not have heard the newsâŠ
