Tenshi No Emi Wo Moichido / Hara Title : ADAM'S DAUGHTER (Harlequin Image)

[Machine Translation] Beth made up her mind. Nearly a year after taking in her late sister's daughter, she finally saw a glimmer of light in her life of bad luck. Her niece, who had been diagnosed with leukemia, might be spared. In the diary of her sister, who was raising her niece on her own, she finally found contact information for her niece's father, a doctor by the name of Adam. She had left her fiance, who had treated her like a burden, and Beth had taken a job as a nurse at a small-town clinic, where she found a room on the second floor for her and her niece to live. Now all she needs is for Adam to recognize her daughter and become a bone marrow donor. I wondered if he would even listen to my request, even though I had promised my sister that I would not let him know that I had a daughter. Beth's hands trembled as she picked up the phone.

ベスは決心した。亡き妹の娘を引き取って1年近く、不運続きの人生にようやくかすかな光が見えてきた。白血病とわかった姪の命が、ひょっとしたら助かるかもしれない。独りで子育てをしていた妹の日記に、姪の父親とおぼしき、アダムという名の医師の連絡先をついに見つけたのだ。姪を邪魔者扱いしたフィアンセとも別れ、ベスは看護師として田舎町の診療所に転職し、その2階に姪と住める部屋も見つけた。あとはアダムが娘を認知して、骨髄ドナーになってくれれば...。妹との約束とはいえ、彼に娘がいると知らせなかった私の頼みを、はたして聞いてもらえるのだろうか。電話を取るベスの手が、震えた―。
