Dr. Chase was stunned for a moment. Then he turned to Jennie and the others and noticed their twisted facial expressions.
It was at that moment that he knew he had spilled the beans.
This person did not know a thing. It was an unnecessary question.
“He agrees! He has to! We are family! Otherwise, why would we donate a kidney?” Meredith remarked.
The others approved, “That’s right! He agrees!”
“Please begin the operation at once! You have our thanks!” Jennie urged, trying to prevent Levi from reacting.
“Who said that I agree? I don’t! I knew nothing about this! A kidney donation? To whom?” Levi bellowed.
The nurse who was pushing him into the operation theater came to a halt.
Dr. Chase furrowed his brows. Argh! I screwed up!
At that, everyone began discussing among themselves.
“It doesn’t matter if you know or not! Dr. Chase, get him into the operation theater!” Jennie and the Zachs family egged on the doctor.
The specialists shook their heads. “No, this won’t do. If the donor does not give consent, we can’t force him to do it. This must be a voluntary act. If he doesn’t fill up the organ donor card, we can’t proceed with the operation.”
“Levi, tell them you’re willing to donate. Quickly!” Jennie kicked the wheelchair.
“What’s the matter?” Levi shrugged his shoulders.
“Logan got into an accident and he needs a kidney transplant. We are giving you this golden opportunity.”
“That’s right. Isn’t it about time that you do something for the family? We are just asking for a kidney from you to save Logan.”
“If you’re willing to donate, you will forever be remembered.”
Meredith and the others persuaded.
They phrased their words as if donating a kidney was a noble deed.
“Oh, please! You and your reasoning. Why didn’t you donate one yourself?” Levi countered.
At his question, they snapped, “We’re talking about a kidney here! What do you think will happen if we donate it? It will affect our physical performance drastically!”
Levi nodded. “You are right. It affects the body significantly. So, why should I donate?”
Robert demanded, “You are nothing but a disabled man. You are confined to a wheelchair for life! What do you need kidneys for? You are no longer capable of working anyway! Furthermore, you still need Zoey to take care of you for the rest of your days! Besides, with your current body condition, what use do you have for a pair of kidneys? They are wasted on you! Shouldn’t you donate one to Logan instead? And if you don’t agree, don’t think about staying together with Zoey! Do you think a crippled man like you is worthy of her?”
He threatened Levi blatantly. It was an outright threat.
Meredith glared at him. “Levi, you have no right to speak in this family! Not before, when you were normal, and not now when you’re paralyzed. This is your only worth! Otherwise, you are not worthy of Zoey! I demand you to agree now or get out of here!”
Following that, Meredith instructed someone to get the organ donor card and forced Levi to ink his fingerprint on the signature box.
“Alright, doctors! Now that he has agreed, let’s begin the operation now!” Meredith handed over the organ donor card to a specialist.
The doctors exchanged glances while twitching their lips. They remained silent the entire time and pushed Levi into the operation theater.
Levi did not resist at all.
To the Blacks, Levi was just a convenient tool who was completely at their mercy.
“Oh, this trash still has his use. Once we’re old, we’ll replace our organs with his. After all, this is why he exists.”
Everyone laughed at the remark.
They even devised a plan to make full use of him in the future.
