After Ian watched Valerie being wheeled from the operation theater to the VIP ward, he visited the cancer ward. It had become a habit of his to visit Norman Litner every day. He was closely monitoring his treatment as soon as his chemotherapy sessions started.

Once in two or three days, Violet would come to visit her grandpa. He would then give her company until John came to look for her at the end of the day. He knew that the little girl was actually heartbroken. Norman's assistant had told him that she would cry every day at home. Ian could do nothing but pity her. She had lost her parents at such a young age and now her grandfather was suffering from cancer. Anybody would be truly devastated when faced with such a situation, she was just a little girl. How could she face all of these?

Ian looked at Norman's reports. There was not much improvement in his health, he was slowly losing his fight against cancer. The chemotherapy was only successful in reducing the growth of cancer cells, however, his old age was not able to cope with the treatment. The only solution was to perform a bone marrow transplant. But, they were unable to find a suitable donor yet.

As Ian looked at the pale and fragile old man, he sighed. He did not know what to do, how to save his life.

"Hey Uncle, Ian." Violet came running to him and hugged his thigh.

"Hi darling." Ian picked her up in his arms.

"Did you come alone?" He looked behind her.

"Yes, Uncle John dropped me here."

"So, where is he?"

"He had some work to do. He left."

"Okay, come with me. I'll take you somewhere."

"Where are we going?" Violet bounced happily in his arms.

"Surprise."

"Wow. Wait, let me greet grandpa first."

Violet slid off his arms and went to her unconscious grandpa. "Hey, grandpa. How are you? Come back home, I am waiting for you. I miss a lot." She hiccuped.

After talking to him and telling him all the things she did the previous day, she made a promise to visit him regularly. She then ran to Ian and held his hand.

"Let's go."

"Okay."

Ian took her to Rachel's ward. He knew that she would be bored out of her mind and she wouldn't mind some company.

"Look who I have brought to meet you." Ian walked in holding Violet's hand. As soon as he entered, he saw Rachel and Joshua along with Daniel who he was meeting for the first time.

Hearing his voice, all the three turned to look at him. They saw a little cutie pie beside him.

"Who is this cutie pie?" Rachel said as she looked the chubby little girl.

Violet giggled.

"Come here darling." Rachel summoned her which she followed. Rachel lifted her and placed her on her lap.

"What is your name?"

"Violet."

"Such a beautiful name," Joshua said from behind.

"I am Rachel, he is Joshua and Daniel." Rachel introduced them, although she felt that it would be too much for the little girl to remember.

"You are very pretty, Big Sis," Violet said as she giggled.

"Why, you too, You are so cute."

Joshua lifted her and looked at her.

"Rachel you have gone blind."

"Why do you say that way?"

"Violet is not only cute, but she is also very pretty."

"Uncle Jo, you are very handsome."

"See Rach, she has good eyesight. She knows what is pleasing to see."

"She is only giving you face."

"Wait. Violet, darling. Who do you find is more handsome between Ian and me?"

Violet looked at Ian and Joshua and then she turned to look at Daniel who was watching them silently in the corner. Without any hesitance, she pointed to him. Rachel burst out laughing seeing this.

"As expected, my boyfriend is the most handsome. She is as good as me." She patted her back.

Joshua started to sulk. He then got an idea.

"Violet, leave that uncle. Who is more handsome between us." He pointed to Ian and then to himself. This time too without hesitating she pointed at Ian.

"Perfect." Rachel cheered from the side while Ian gave Joshua a triumphant look.

"Whatever."

Rachel looked at Violet and then at Ian. She was surprised. At first she had not noticed it. However, now she could make out the striking resemblance between the two. It looked like Violet was his daughter. All her features were very similar to his.

Daniel followed her line of sight and too was surprised at this new discovery and without being told he too felt the same.

"Ian, why is Violet in the hospital?"

"Her grandfather has cancer." He spoke softly.

"Is it?"

After thinking for a while, she pulled Ian to sit in front of her on the bed. She then looked at Daniel and she spoke to him secretly through her eyes. He nodded at her.

"Violet, come I'll buy you some ice cream."

"Yay, ice cream." She said happily.

"Joshua, why don't you join them," Rachel suggested.

He was confused by the sudden change in the atmosphere, nevertheless he went along with them.

As soon as the three left Ian and Rachel to themselves, Ian broke the silence.

"Rachel what do you want to tell?"

"How long have you known Violet?"

"Only for a few days. Why?"

"Didn't you find this weird?"

"What?"

"She looks a little like you."

"What?"

"Yes. At first sight anybody would think that you are her father."

"Nonsense."

"No, I am telling the truth. She looks a lot like you. Maybe you might be related to her."

"No Rachel, that's not possible."

"If you say so." She gave up. She knew what she was telling may just be her thoughts and not real. She just wanted Ian to find his family.

Although Rachel had given up, her words kept running in Ian's mind. He had heard that Norman had another son, other than Violet's father, who went missing when he was just five. However, he was not ready to accept that he might be the one. He didn't remember anything about his lost family nor anything before the age of five. The only thing he remembered was that he was accidentally found by Noah's grandfather.

Ian was not ready to accept it. It was all sudden for him, in fact he hadn't even considered looking for his real family or even being related to Violet until Rachel pointed out the similarities between them. Guess that was the reason why Ian felt a strong connection to Norman and Violet.

If he was truly Norman's missing son, then he could save him. He could be the donor to save his father.
