Chapter 227 Mervin Being Domineering
Devoted entirely to praying for Stanley, Monica had forgotten about the pain in her abdomen and the fact that she was injured too. She anxiously waited for him to be out of danger.
“Dang it!” One of the doctors cursed suddenly. “Mr. Fox has entered a coma!”
When she heard that, her reaction was slow for a few seconds. With tears in her eyes, she looked at the doctors bustling around, one of them taking a medical instrument. “Give me some space.”
She stood up and took a few steps back while the doctors quickly surrounded the operating table, blocking her view. With a heavy heart, she asked in a hoarse voice, “What does entering a coma mean?”
“He’s in a vegetative state.”
At this moment, her mind went blank.
“It could also mean death.”
She held her breath in shock, and her swollen eyes widened.
When the door to the emergency room opened again, the waiting Fox Family members quickly crowded around the doctor.
“Doctor, how is my son? Is he out of danger?” Jennifer pleaded with her eyes.
“This is a critical condition notice. We need a family member to sign it.” The doctor handed her a pen.
“No.. Jennifer couldn’t accept this reality. Emotionally agitated, she asked, “What about Dr. Cohen? Let me see him! Isn’t he a great doctor? If he’s just here to give me this, why did he come all the way from
Riverdale?”
Dr. Cohen? The doctor suddenly realized something and immediately returned to the emergency room.novelxo.com fast update
With that, the door closed again, and everyone outside regained a glimmer of hope.
“Madam.” Stephanie supported Jennifer carefully. “You should sit down and rest. There will be good news. Mr. Fox is strong, and he even survived such a big fire back then.”
Yet, those words of comfort couldn’t enter Jennifer’s ears, for she was filled with grief.
In a small room inside, Taylor quickly prepared a bottle of medicine. He was so focused that he couldn’t hear the sounds around him. Holding the bottle of medicine, he turned and headed toward the emergency room, but he encountered the doctor at the entrance.
“We have a situation, Dr. Cohen. Mr. Fox has already entered a coma. It’s critical!”
Hearing that, Taylor brushed past him and rushed into the emergency room.
Outside, Jennifer was overwhelmed with sorrow. “Stanley, as long as you wake up, I promise not to force you anymore. As long as you’re alive… I’ll let you do whatever you want.”
“You should get some rest, Madam,” Stephanie said to her. “Let’s go lie down for a while. You’re already
exhausted.
With tears streaming down her face. Jennifer shook her head. “No, I want to stay here and pray for him”
At the same time, in the president’s office at the Fox Group headquarters, Max received a phone call informing him about Stanley’s car accident in Navelic. Instantly, his heart skipped a beat, making him sink into his office chair after he put down the phone. He felt as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
No one must know about this. Otherwise, the company will be in chaos. As such, he had to shoulder the heavy responsibilities of the company alone for the time being.
Although he was capable of handling it, he was deeply concerned about Stanley’s condition and wanted to go to Navelie to see him. However, he couldn’t leave, so he could only wait here anxiously.
On the other hand, in the hospital at Navelic, Mervin bought lunch for Melinda. He had chosen it meticulously, consisting of congee, baked eggs, nourishing soup, and handmade pastries. As he entered the ward with the bag in his hand, he noticed her lifting the bed covers.
“What are you doing?” He quickly put down the things and hurriedly approached to support her. “The doctor said you need to rest in bed.”
“My stomach doesn’t hurt anymore.” She sat on the edge of the bed and raised her gaze as she said, “I want to be discharged.”
You can’t.”
“Why not? Just because you said so?” she asked with a smile. “Don’t you have a mission? If you stay here with me, what about your team? Are they going to abandon the competition?” After speaking, she intended to put on her shoes.
“You can’t be discharged now.” He held her arm, preventing her from bending down, then said, “Once you’re admitted to the hospital, you have to listen to the doctor.”
“I want to be discharged. I don’t like hospitals,” she said with a frown.
However, he took off her shoes directly. “I said you can’t.” He then put her legs back on the bed, lifted the covers onto her body, and said, “Lie down!”
“You…” Melinda became anxious, looking at him acting high and mighty. “Can you not be so domineering?”
Without a word, he stared at her.
“I want to be discharged. I don’t like hospitals, and besides, I’m well aware of my body’s condition. I’m not in pain anymore.”
Suddenly, Mervin understood something, and anger flared up in his heart. He stared at her coldly and said, “Do you know that you just had a miscarriage?”
