When He Regretted It, His Daughter was DeadChapter 1

My phone was full of alerts warning about a rainstorm, but Damon Wagner left our daughter and me stranded at the gas station.

He said he had to rush for emergency surgery.

But after he left, our daughter suddenly had a heart attack.

By the time I managed to hail a car and get her to the hospital, it was already too late.

I was devastated, calling Damon countless times, but he never picked up.

Then I saw him in a ward coaxing a woman to take her medicine.

It was none other than his ex-girlfriend, Alicia Williams.

My tears had dried up as I sat alone in the office, numbly filling out the organ donation consent form.

It was Glenda Wagner's wish.

Once when we were at the hospital for a check-up, the doctor gave us grim news.

Glenda and I sat in the hospital garden, and suddenly she said, "Mom, when I'm gone, please donate my organs."

I was stunned, my heart filled with bitterness. "Don't talk like that. How could you be gone?"

"I heard from the doctor that this could help so many people. Mom, you said helping others brings blessings, so I'll have lots of blessings, and in my next life, I can still be your child."
