When Shirley woke up, she spoke to the doctor and asked to see Angeline.

Angeline changed into sterile garments and went in to see Shirley.

Shirley's head was wrapped in thick gauze, and her dark long hair rested on her chest, making her face look even paler.

"Big Sis," Angeline sat in front of her and called out to her softly.

Shirley smiled weakly. "Little Angeline, I don't think I can hold on much longer. There are certain things I need to tell you or I won't be able to die in peace."

"You will be fine, Big Sis. Have faith in Grand Asia Hospital's technology." Angeline was tearing up.

Shirley stretched out her trembling hand, and Angeline took it quickly. "Please go ahead, Big Sis."

Shirley said, "Tell Zayne that he should never feel guilty because being able to give him my kidney is the best decision I've ever made in my life. I'm ever grateful to him because in the final years of my life, he has given me a warm and loving home. There's a strict father, a loving mother, and the adorable and kind Little Angeline. I have no more regrets in my life."

Angeline wailed, saying, "Don't say pessimistic things like that, Big Sis. It terrifies me. Please, you must come out alive. I beg you."

Even so, Shirley was filled with gratitude. "Little Angeline, I have lived long enough. It's time for me to return Zayne to Josephine. Send my apologies to Josephine. I didn't know about her existence when Zayne pursued me. I was dying for a home, and Zayne was so sincere, so I agreed. When I learned about the tragic love story between Zayne and Josephine after that and asked for a divorce, Zayne used all kinds o excuses to dismiss me. I know he's just being kind. He was afraid that I would have nowhere else to go."

Angeline held Shirley's hand, her eyes crimson from crying too much. "Listen to me, Big Sis. Since love isn't the reason why you and Zayne got together, why don't you return Zayne to Josephine then? As for you, I will give you a warm and happy home. From today onward, you will no longer be Shirley Thomas, you will be my elder sister. My biological sister. Your name will be Shirley Severe. I will ask mom and dad to adopt you. Okay?"

Shirley's eyes were filled with a hint of longing. "Is that possible, Little Angeline?"

"Mom adores you while Dad and Grandpa often shower you with praises. I'm sure they will accept my suggestion. From today onward, you'll be the Severe family's eldest daughter. Zayne and I will listen to everything you say."

Shirley nodded with delight. "Okay. Let's go with your plan."

"You must recover. We'll be waiting for you to come home."

"Mm." Shirley let out a bright and peaceful smile.

Suddenly, Angeline recalled something and her expression turned sullen. "Big Sis, was Sera the one who pushed you off the balcony?"

Shirley said, "I can't hide anything from you, can I?"

Angeline walked out of the ward with a grim look on her face.

Sitting in the waiting room, Sera had long lost her patience. She pulled a long face and complained, saying, "How long are we going to stay in the hospital? We can't be waiting here all day just because Big Sis is hospitalized, can we?"

Anne cast her a sidelong glance. "It won't kill you to wait a bit longer. At least listen to what the doctor has to say."

Actually, Anne wanted to leave too, but because she was a fence-sitter, she was willing to stoop to compromise and submit to Angeline now that she was so powerful and influential.

When Angeline walked out, everyone rushed up to her and surrounded her.

"What's wrong, Angel? Is Shirley okay?"
