The nerves in Luca''s head tightened, and her breathing became heavy.
Luke moved his hand and ced it on his favorite spot. As he listened to her rapid breathing, he could
not help but smile and say, "Time to sleep. I''ll stop moving."
Luca opened her eyes. The more one could not see anything in the darkness, the more sensitive one''s
sense of touch would be.
She could feel the warmth of his palming through the fabric. The fric cells in her body were
trembling uncontrobly.
Luke said he would not move his hands anymore, and he really did not move them.
Luca felt uneasy because of his gesture. It took her more than ten minutes to calm herself down and
close her eyes.
Luke''s hand never moved again. If Luca turned around now, she would be able to see the smile that
was overflowing with happiness on his face.
The next day.
Jason drove to Blue Skies Shelter and picked Dexter up, just like what Luke had instructed him to do.
Dexter was stunned when he looked at the luxury car that came to pick him up. He never had the
chance to sit in such a luxurious car.
He did not expect he would have this chance one day.
“Mr. Shaw, right? Please get into the car,” said Jason. He looked at the dirty clothes Dexter was
wearing without changing his expression. He opened the rear door and invited him to get into the car.
Dexter nodded with satisfaction. There was a private chauffeur too. He was satisfied with the
arrangements.
After Dexter climbed into the car, Jason closed the door, walked past the front of the car, and got into
the passenger seat. Then, he headed to the hospital.
In the hospital. Luke had already asked Johann to prepare everything.
Once Dexter arrived at the hospital, the doctor and nurse would bring him for the blood test, X-rays,
and several medical check-ups to see if he was a good match with Leia.
Dexter sat in the back of the car, enjoying himself. He never expected that he would be able to enjoy
such privileges just because Leia was sick.
He asked Jason, "Am I going to the hospital immediately?"
“The doctor and nurse will arrange for you to undergo a few medical check-ups when you arrive at the
hospital. You''ll be admitted to the hospital and wait for the surgery if you''re a good match," answered
Jason.
"Has your boss prepared the money he promised to give me?" That was what Dexter was concerned
about.
"The agreement has been prepared. You''ll sign the agreement once you arrive at the hospital. Then,
the cash will be yours," replied Jason. Luke had already gotten all these prepared yesterday.

He even told Jason the contents of the agreement and asked him to look for Mr. Zac to write the deal.
"Good." Dexter was delighted. "I''d like to request a better ward if I have to be admitted to the hospital.
I''m not used to sharing a bedroom with others. So, it has to be a private ward."
"No problem," replied Jason. He could not help but secretly mumble to himself how dare Dexter
request a private ward when it was customary for more than ten people to share a bedroom at Blue
Skies Shelter. He seemed to be getting used to it well.
The distance between Blue Skies Shelter and the hospital was a little far away.
It was an hour''s drive to the hospital.
After Jason parked the car, he took two copies of the agreement out of his briefcase and said, "Mr.
Crawford has already signed the agreement. All you have to do is to sign your name and leave your
inked thumbprint on it. Also, I''d like to remind you that this is a drafted agreement by a professional
lawyer, and it has legal protection. You''re not allowed to breach the terms of agreement once you sign
it."
Dexter looked at the agreement and frowned.
"Is there any problem with it?" Jason asked.
Dexter pointed at the contents of the agreement and said, "I''ve only managed to finish primary school.
Do you think I''m able to recognize all the words in the agreement?"
"Do you mind if I read it for you once?" Jason said patiently. The agreement was not long, after all.
"Sure. Don''t lie to me. If you lie to me, I''ll back out anytime. My life''s all I got. I''m not afraid of anything
either." Dexter threatened him.
"I will only read whatever is written in the agreement," Jason held one copy of the agreement and read
it through for Dexter. Then, he handed the agreement to him and said, "If you have no problem with it,
just sign and leave your thumbprint on it. Both of you will keep one copy of the agreement. The doctor
and nurse are already waiting for you."
Dexter scribbled his name at the end of the agreement and left his thumbprint on it. Then, he asked,
"Where''s the money?"
He could not wait to see a stack of cash.
"Rx." Jason took the cash out of his briefcase and said, "Here''s 20,000 dors."
"Why is it not 20,000?" Dexter frowned with dissatisfaction. He was promised 10 percent of the total
amount. Was it not supposed to be 25,000 dors?"
Jason exined to him, "50,000 dors is for thepensation. If you''re not a good match for the liver
transnt, then you won''t have to be admitted to the hospital. There''ll be nopensation too. If
you''re a sessful match, then the 50,000 dors will be given to you."
“Fine. Let me count it first." Dexter began to count the banknotes slowly. He had already forgotten how
long it had been since he held a stack of cash in his hands.
The cash felt real to him. He burst with joy, and the wrinkles on his face, a sign of all the hardships he
had been through in his journey of life, deepened.
Jason waited patiently for him to finish counting the cash. He was not worried that Dexter woulde
up with some dirty tricks. After all, the banknotes were taken out at the bank counter. The serial number
on the banknotes were connected. He would be able to find the banknotes even if Dexter swallowed
them.
Jason''s phone rang. He picked up the phone that he put aside earlier and nced at it. It was a
message from Johann.
[Are you here yet?]
[Hold on. I''m at the hospital entrance. He''s counting the money.] Jason replied.
It took some time for Dexter to finish counting the banknotes. "198, 199, 200..."
Jason turned around and asked, "It''s the right amount, right?"
"Yes. It''s just right." Dexter was smiling ear to ear.
Jason pushed the car door open and said, "If you have no problem with it, then let''s go."
Dexter put the money into his worn-out backpack. The only thing he had was his tattered clothes and
the ragged bag.
Now, the ragged bag had be valuable because of the banknotes in it.
Dexter climbed out of the car and carried the bag in his arms. It was as though he was afraid that
someone else would snatch it from him.
Jason brought him to Johann and said, "This is Mr. Shaw."
Johann sized Dexter up for a moment. He knew Dexter lived in the shelter. He had tanned skin and
eyes full of greed. His body was covered with dirt. Johann could hardly imagine that he was Leia''s
biological father.
Although Leia was as thin as a stick with an awfully pale-looking face now, she used to be a pure and
innocent-looking female star. She had amazing facial features, and she looked more beautiful than
other women.
"Hello, please fill in your details for the registration. The nurse will then lead you and you''ll have a blood
test, X-ray, and several medical check-ups." Johann handed the form to Dexter.
Dexter shot a nce at it. He frowned and said, "I can only write my name."
Johann looked at the nurse who was beside her and said, "Help him fill in the form."
"Okay, Dr. Park." The nurse nodded. Although the man looked dirty, the nurse came close to Dexter
and taught him how to fill the form.
Johann stepped away and waved at Jason.
"What''s the matter?" Jason walked toward him and asked.
"Are you sure he''s Leia''s biological father?" Johann looked at Dexter, who stood not far away from him.
He wondered aloud, "Did Luke get it wrong?"
