My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2244

In the morning, complications from the operation caused Aaron's body temperature to rise. The whole ward buzzed with activity. All kinds of methods were used in an attempt to lower his body temperature. Finally, an injection successfully stabilized Aaron's condition.

Looking at Aaron lying on the bed so calmly, it felt like a big stone suddenly weighed down my heart. It was so heavy that I couldn't breathe. After confirming that he was sleeping well, I went out for a break.

The hospital was quiet and eerie in the early morning. Several patients' families came and went from the inpatient ward. Their faces were the same as mine. They were either worried or tired and numb. Compared with the noisy ordinary ward, this place was less fretful.

Hence, even when passing by, the news in the hall could be heard word for word.

"Today, there are many cases of children missing or kidnapped in the city. At present, the police are doing their best to apprehend the suspects. Please contact the special investigations team if you have any relevant information..."

The safety of the city was crumbling, not to mention our little family.

Perhaps the only fortunate thing was that no matter what Hendrix had planned, he had no intention of taking risks with the children. Otherwise, the first person Jordan would deal with was Aurelia and the others, not Aaron.

That son of a b*tch must have known that it was necessary to strike at one's weak point. On the surface, he wanted to take revenge for Aaron's punch. But in fact, he wanted to break down my mental barriers.

Once a person had a mental breakdown, they could be easily manipulated. Jordan wanted me and was repeating the process of him capturing Hendrix.

Thinking of that, I couldn't help but sigh. Was Hendrix being completely controlled?

I was not calm enough in the operating room, now that I thought about it, Hendrix could have stayed away. But he not only came but also inexplicably said so much.

Perhaps what he said was a warning on the surface, but in fact, it was a reminder for me to be careful. Only by wearing a cold and ruthless mask could he not be easily seen through.

Lost in thought, I walked through the corridor and entered the ordinary ward. I subconsciously walked back. A second before I turned around, I saw Evan coming out of one of the wards.

Looking at his back, I was flustered for a while before I remembered that Matthew was arranged to stay here.

Could it be that...

When I was about to stop Evan and ask him, I looked up and saw him leave using the stairs. Hence, I gave up for the time being.

Coming back to the ward, I bumped into a policeman who came to ask about the case. He left after simply asking for my statement because Aaron was still in a coma.

According to their official speech, the mastermind would not be affected at all. Only the thug would be detained.

As soon as the police left, Cyrus suddenly appeared at the nearest safety exit of the ward. He wore a longcoat and a military hat, which made him look like a warlord.

We looked at each other and nodded to each other in greeting. It seemed that Cyrus knew something about Aaron.

I asked him to sit down on the bench. "Aaron hasn't woken up yet. Could you please wait here for a while?"

"Okay." Cyrus turned his head and looked into the ward. He sat down and kept a perfect distance from me. "Fortunately, his life was not lost Miss Reid, you don't have to worry too much."

It was just two light sentences, but since it was coming from Cyrus, there was an inexplicable sense of affection mixed in.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"Thank you." I pursed my lips and remembered to ask why he came. "Mr. Zimmer, you are not here just to visit, right?"
