One Wild Night

Chapter 758 Ruthless Man

As Sara and Crystal walked into the building, Sara couldn't help but be impressed by the sight of the place. It looked really sophisticated and neat and being a research center, it was not very filled with people.

The only people she could see were all dressed in white coats like they were doctors or scientists, and others were dressed in medical scrubs.

She felt a bit relaxed, knowing that she would be in such good and professional hands. The head doctor had assured her that they usually carried out such illegal transplants there, and no one would spill a word of it out of the building.

"Is this a hospital? Why are there so many doctors and no patients?" Crystal asked as she looked around.

"It's a special clinic for people with rare conditions as me," Sara explained away as she stopped at the reception desk.

"Hello! I'm here to see Doctor James," Sara said and the two nurses who sat there, looked at her with interest.

"Sara Walker?" One of the nurses asked as she tapped on her computer as though looking for Sara's details.

"Yes."

"Please come with me," the other nurse said as she rose.

Just as Crystal began to follow Sara, she stopped her, "Wait here while I speak with the doctor and explain things to him," Sara said with a harmless smile, and Crystal nodded as she stayed put and watched as Sara walked away.

"It was nice of you to offer to be her organ donor," the nurse, who was left at the reception stand, said to Crystal before she could walk away.

"Organ donor? What do you mean?" Crystal asked, pretending not to know what was going on.

"Aren't you here for the transplant?" The lady asked, and Crystal shook her head.

"No! No! Why would I want to do something like that? I'm here because Sara is my friend and I want to find out what is wrong with her health," Crystal said and the nurse looked at her with interest.

"Really? She didn't tell you she was bringing you here for a transplant?" She asked again and Crystal shook her head vigorously.

"No! Never. She never mentioned anything of the sort," Crystal said and the lady nodded.

"I see. You can sit over there and wait while I go see what is going on inside," she said as she rose and walked away from the reception stand.

Crystal frowned as she watched the nurse leave, and she couldn't help but wonder if the nurse was part of Harry's plan or if she was acting on her own stead. And why would she leave her seat that way? Crystal mused as she sat there looking all around her anxiously.

Away from there, Sara had a smile on her face as walked into the doctor's office, "Doctor James," Sara greeted pleasantly.

"You are welcome. I trust you came with your donor?" The doctor asked, and Sara nodded.

"Yes. I did. She is waiting outside," Sara said, and then glanced at the nurse who was standing in the office with her.

"We will have to carry out a series of tests to be sure you are both compatible…."

"We are compatible," Sara cut confidently.

"I don't know how you know it, but this is routine. I still have to do my own tests to be sure," the doctor insisted.

"But that would only be a waste of valuable time, trust me when I say we are compatible," Sara said, and the doctor raised a brow.

"Is there a reason you are so sure of your compatibility?" He asked and Sara shook her head.

"Yes. Because she is my daughter," Sara said impatiently, knowing that was the only way she could get them to skip all the routine checks and carry on with the surgery.

"Your daughter? Why are you accepting a whole liver from your daughter when you can take a love and it will regenerate, and you both can live? Do you realize she might die if we harvest her whole liver?" The doctor asked and Sara glared at him.

"What is the meaning of this interrogation? I thought we had an agreement hence I paid you so much money? I paid you to get this done not to question me!" Sara snapped at him, and he raised both hands.

"You are right. I'm sorry," the doctor said just as the other nurse walked into the office.

"Let's just sign the papers and then we can go get you both ready for surgery," he said and Sara nodded with approval.

"Go get the donor to sign the papers," the doctor said and Sara shook her head.

"I will sign this for her, don't worry," Sara said and the doctor nodded.

"If you say so," he said as he gave the papers to her and Sara quickly signed on them.

"Take her to the theater and prepare for her transplant. You can go get the donor ready as well," The doctor said to the nurses and they both gave him a nod before walking out.

As the nurses walked out of the office with Sara, she stopped them, "Don't say anything to her," Sara warned, and they both gave her a nod.

Once Crystal saw them returning she rose to go meet Sara while the nurse who had spoken to her earlier, shook her head, subtly asking Crystal to not say anything to Sara.

"Can I go see the doctor now?" Crystal asked Sara once she got to her.

"Oh, dear, that won't be necessary," Sara said as she looked at the nurses to excuse them and took Crystal to the side.

"He said I won't live past this week if I don't get a transplant at once. Are you still willing to donate the liver?" Sara asked even though she planned to get the liver from her whether or not she was willing to do it voluntarily.

"Of course. Let's do it right away," Crystal said and Sara rubbed her arms.

"After this, let's go on a vacation together," Sara said and Crystal smiled at her and they both turned to the nurses.

"We are ready," Sara said and the nurses led the way to the theater.

Sara froze when they walked into the room and she was greeted by a crowd of reporters who seemed to be waiting for her to join them.

"W––hat is going on here?" Sara stuttered as she asked the nurses.

Seeing what was happening, Crystal couldn't help feeling relieved now that she could see that Sara had actually walked into Harry's trap.

Sara couldn't help the fear that gripped her heart at the sight before her. Did the doctor trick her? Was this Harry's doing? Had they been keeping an eye on her? What was she going to do in this situation? Sara mused as she tried to look away from the cameras which were flashing in her direction.

She turned to leave, but realized that the nurses had shut the door through which they had entered.

"Sara Walker, what do you have to say about the video which was released about you earlier today?" One of the reporters asked and she frowned.

"What video?" She asked before she could stop herself.

"Who is the young lady with you?" Another reporter asked.

"Did you really plan to have her whole liver harvested without her knowledge?" Another asked and Sara felt the blood drain from her face as they threw various questions at her.

How did this happen? How was she going to salvage the situation?

"No, I didn't. She came here voluntarily to…."

"No, I didn't come here to have my liver harvested! I don't know what she is talking about," Crystal exclaimed, shocking Sara who turned to her with wide eyes.

"Crystal?" Sara called in a shaky voice as beads of sweat began to form on her forehead.

"Was that your plan? To murder me and take my liver?" Crystal asked with a horrified expression on her face.

"Crystal!" Sara cried, wondering what Crystal was trying to do to her.

"Why would I ever want to murder my own daughter?" Sara screamed, seeing as that was the only card she had left.

"Your daughter?"

"You mean she is your daughter?"

"Didn't you say you had no kid and no family?"

"What do you mean I am your daughter? I am not her daughter," Crystal yelled, looking Sara as though she had lost her mind.

Was this Harry's doing as Amos had warned? How had she fallen into their trap? How did this happen? How had she not known?

"Crystal...."

"I am not your daughter. I don't know what you are talking about, Sara," Crystal said with a straight face.

"I am your mother! The DNA! We did a DNA test, remember?" Sara asked, clinging on to Crystal's hand desperately and hoping she would save her.

"No! I don't remember any such thing! You are not my mother and we can conduct a DNA test to prove it!" Crystal insisted and it dawned on Sara that Crystal wasn't who she thought she was.

This was obviously Harry's doing. The doctor was probably in on it as well. She needed to think fast on her feet to save herself.

Maybe it was best if she faints, at least that way she wouldn't have to answer any more questions and she would save herself further embarrassment.

Before she could pretend to swoon, the doctor joined them and brought out his badge, "Sara Walker, you are under arrest…."

"Under arrest? Aren't you a doctor?" Sara asked in horror.

"No, I'm not. I am detective Larry Winter, and this is my partner, Detective Joyce Woods," he said, pointing to the nurse who had spoken with Crystal and joined them in the office after.

"And I am a reporter," the other nurse, who had been in the office with her and the male detective, introduced herself.

Sara felt sweat drip down her back and her temple began to ache as it dawned on her that she had messed up by being overly confident. She should have listened to Amos when he kept trying to warn her.

"I paid you! I paid you so much money for your research!" Sara said accusingly.

"No, you bribed me to carry out an illegal transplant. And all that money will be taken in as evidence," he said and even though Sara felt like screaming and tearing out her hair in frustration, she refused to do so. She wasn't going to behave like Rebekah Miller.

She had watched that video with a look of disgust as she beheld how classless Rebekah had acted. She wasn't going to give Harry that satisfaction. Never.

"I have to call my lawyer," she said in a firm voice and he nodded.

"Mr Amos Blacksmith, I guess?" The female detective asked and Sara frowned.

"How did you know that?" She asked and the female detective smirked.

"He turned himself in earlier today and he has exposed all your crimes. So it's best you cooperate with us as we also have evidence against you both in written form and recorded speech," The male detective said, and this time, Sara didn't need to pretend to faint, her eyes naturally rolled back and she fainted.

Crystal felt a chill run down her spine as she watched them take Sara away, and even when the reporters gathered around her to ask her questions, she couldn't utter a word.

Who would have known that everyone dressed as doctors and nurses around the place were actually cops and reporters?

What kind of a man was Harry Jonas? She couldn't believe how cold he must be to have pulled a stunt like this on his own mother.

He was a very ruthless and scary man, and now she was both glad and grateful that he had called to warn her to desist from double crossing him.

As far as she was concerned, her job was done now and all that was left was for her to take what was left of her payment and she would go as far away from all of this as was possible.
