When Love Comes Late
Chapter 1624

Ending the call, she grabbed her bag in a panic.

“Sorry, I must go.

Something’s come up.

”

Stella, seeing Devyn’s distress, reached out instinctively.

“What’s wrong? What happened?”

Tears brimmed in Devyn’s eyes.

She pulled away from Stella, sobbing.

“It’s my mom… Something’s happened.

I must go!”

Devyn’s eyes were red with tears streaming down her face.

She pushed Stella’s hand away, ready to leave.

Stella grabbed her arm and said, “I’m coming with you.

”

Devyn could only think of her mom in that moment, her heart racing with panic.

She nodded, not thinking of anything else.

They left the restaurant quickly and caught a taxi.

Not far from them, a black Maybach was parked.

The driver spotted Stella, turned to Matthew, and reported, “Mr.

Clark, it’s Stella.

They seem to be heading out.

”

Matthew saw their worried expressions, furrowed his brows, and commanded, “Follow them.

”

Once Stella and Devyn got into the taxi, the Maybach began tailing them.

At the hospital, Stella and Devyn rushed into the ward.

Soon after, a doctor called Devyn into his office.

Visibly anxious, Devyn asked, “Doctor, what’s going on? How’s my mom?”

The doctor sighed deeply and said, “Her condition worsened suddenly today.

She’s still being resuscitated.

It’s really up to her strength to pull through this critical time.

”

Devyn’s knees nearly gave out.

“What can we do now? Doctor, please, there must be something.

I’d do anything to save her.

”

The doctor looked at Devyn with pity.

“The most urgent need is a kidney donor.

None of the other treatments have been able to cure her fully.

”

Kidney? Devyn stumbled, struggling to comprehend the situation.

She took a deep breath and questioned the doctor, “You told me just a few days ago that my mom was stable.

Why has her condition worsened so suddenly?”

The doctor exhaled deeply and replied, “Your mother’s condition is complex and challenging to treat.

It could deteriorate at any time, and I’m not entirely sure of all the details.

”

He paused, as if recalling something.

“However, the nurse mentioned that someone visited your mother today.

Right after they left, her condition took a turn for the worse.

”

Devyn’s expression darkened, and fear crept over her.

She thought about the mysterious woman who had called earlier.

No one else usually visited her mother, and this woman seemed to know a lot about her family.

“Miss Padilla, don’t lose hope.

We’re doing everything we can to find a kidney donor for your mother,” the doctor assured her.
