Chapter 161 - Jean is looking for me ... (2/2)

”Hmm...” He took out his phone and checked the incoming texts.

[Check email.]

He frowned and opened the email on his phone. A few moments later he gave his phone to Finland.

”That friend of yours... is his name Jean Pierre Wang?” he asked.

Finland gasped, she nodded.

”Yes. What about him?”

”Caspar sent me some news about Jean Pierre Wang and a child who is suffering from leukemia. This e-mail came in a few days ago, but because I was in the jungle I didn't get a chance to read it before.”

Finland opened the email and clicked some of the links there. Her heart actually hurt because Caspar did not contact her at all, and instead, he contacted Lauriel for matters related to her friend, Jean. But her pain soon disappeared when she saw the news and videos from the press conference held by the team of hospital doctors and Jean in Continental Hotel, dated last month. She was very surprised.

Lauriel's phone almost fell when Finland's trembling hands rubbed her teary eyes. Lauriel quickly took his phone from her and handed her his handkerchief.

”Jean is looking for me...” Finland whispered in a trembling voice. ”He doesn't remember me, but he has been looking for me... And the child, he will die if no suitable donor is found...”

”Do you want to go to Singapore?” Lauriel asked. ”You can also do a donor compatibility test In Brazil and have the results sent to Singapore for comparison.”

”N... no, I have to meet Jean. If he is in Singapore I have to go there.”

”He may not necessarily still be in Singapore. The news is from a month ago. After all, if you go to Singapore and it turned out that the results don't match, your efforts of going there will be in vain...” Lauriel took Finland's hands and tried to calm her down. ” If you want to meet Jean, I can find his whereabouts for you.”

”Can you do it?” Finland asked hopefully. Lauriel nodded.

”After you find out his whereabouts, then we decide what to do. Now, let's have dinner first.”

Lauriel called someone for a moment then continued to order their dinner. Finland had no appetite and only ordered a salad.

Just after dinner, Lauriel got a message that Jean was currently shooting for a movie in France. Since France was in the middle between Brazil and Singapore, Finland decided to meet Jean in France and then proceed to Singapore together to undergo a donor test.

”I still need to stay for a week in Brazil. Do you want to go alone or with Aleksis?” Lauriel asked. ”I can take care of Aleksis myself so that you can leave without interruption to Singapore. Children should not be taken to the hospital because they are vulnerable to disease.”

Finland felt conflicted. She did not have the heart to leave Aleksis with Lauriel, but the man made a good point. It would be very inconvenient for her to go back and forth to the hospital with Aleksis around because no one would be able to help her care for Aleksis in France or Singapore.

”Does it have to be a week? It can't be accelerated?” she asked nervously.

”Hmm... the earliest would be 5 days. Tomorrow I will take you to the airport. From there I can immediately continue my journey to Belem,” Lauriel replied.

After two years together, Finland knew that she could entrust her life and Aleksis' life to Lauriel. She was more worried that Aleksis would contract a disease in the hospital if she insisted on bringing Aleksis with her. Finally, she reluctantly agreed.
