No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Chapter 428

Chuck's words hit Harry hard. He grabbed him by his collar, looked into his eyes and snapped at him. "What do you mean by 'breathing her last'? You said she had 24 hours!"

Jordan immediately dragged him away from Chuck. The doctor was actually as upset as him. "She might not be able to pull through, " Chuck said sadly. As a doctor, he had seen many lives come and go, but it was difficult for him to see his good brother's grief and her death… the woman he had been in love with before…

Harry wildly pushed him away and rushed into the ICU. He bent over her and anxiously looked at her. She was lying on the bed, still unconscious.

His eyes reddened. "Lola! Wake up! You can't just keep lying there!" He cried, agony in his voice. He took her limp hand. She looked so frail.

Chuck went to him, and took him by the arm. He gently comforted him, "Harry, calm down."

"Didn't you say 24 hours? Why won't she be able to pull through?" He roared hysterically.

Maybe she would wake up soon. Or she might not. Then, she would sleep forever…

Maybe? He needed to be sure. Who could assure him? He needed her to be all right. He couldn't bear to lose her.

"Lora, you have three kids. You can't just leave them. You can't. I'm warning you!" he said angrily. But Lola did not respond.

Chuck held him by his arm. He didn't want him to do anything crazy.

He exchanged worried looks with Joseph and Jordan. They came into the ICU to lead him out of the room.

"Calm down, Harry. Let's just wait. Everything would be fine, " Joseph soothed him. They made him sit on the bench, and held him there with their hands.

Harry closed his eyes in an attempt to calm himself down, but failed.

"Harry, she wouldn't leave the kids. You should trust her." Joseph said as confidently as he could manage, though he himself was uncertain.

Wait? He couldn't wait anymore! His woman was dying. How could he sit there and just wait?

He stood up on his knees, trying to get rid of the restraining grip of the brothers. But they held him tight between them.

"Keep away from me! I'm going to wake her up!" he hissed. His grief made others' hearts ache.

Yolanda was sent to the hospital some time ago. But Chuck refused to see her. She had been transferred to his colleagues.

He had learned about the entire story of how she put Lola in danger.

"Harry! Please calm down! She will be fine!" Jordan finally spoke up. He believed in his sister. She

would surely be all right.

Harry was still pinned to the bench and couldn't move.

The brothers didn't remove their hands from him until he had finally calmed down.

Time slowed down as they waited.

The three men wordlessly stood in the hallway. Silence didn't leave them until Mr. Lewis appeared with a crutch in his hand.

"Grandfather, " they said. Mr. Lewis nodded to them as he walked up to Harry, his grandson.

"Harry, I know how you are feeling, " he said. His voice was calm and full of love. He remembered the day when his wife had left him. He had been as sad as Harry was today.

"Lola's not going to die. She will wake up for you and your kids. You must have faith in her, Harry!"

Harry said nothing. He just nodded and anxiously glanced at her through the ICU window. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Lola, I trust you. Don't let me down, please! He said a silent prayer.

In the ICU, Lola laid still on the bed. She was dreaming. In the dream, she saw her grandmother and mother smiling and waving at her. She tried to run to them, but somehow couldn't reach them.

Then she heard a sweet voice calling her name. She looked around and saw a man beside her. "Zoe! Zoe! I'm so glad to see you again!" She joyfully yelled and ran to him.

But Zoe suddenly disappeared. He showed up again beside her grandmother and mother. They stood together and waved at her.

She was just about to move towards them when she heard babies crying. She looked back in amazement and saw two babies crying behind her. They were twins!

To her surprise, their faces were like Harry's.

Then a man appeared behind the babies. He called her name in a soft voice, "Lola, don't leave me."

To her shock, the babies spoke up too, "Mommy, please don't leave us."

She was touched by their gentle cries and began walking towards them.

But her grandmother's voice called again, "Lola, my dear! I missed you so much. Come to me quickly."

She saw her beckoning her towards her again.

"I missed you, too. Come to me. Let me take a look at you, Lola, " she could now hear her mother's voice.

"Lola, how are you? I'm not doing good down there. Could you come down with me?" Zoe's vague figure showed up again and again.

She was puzzled. She looked from the kids and the man to her grandmother and mother and then to Zoe.

She couldn't make up her mind. She couldn't decide where to go.

Finally, she decided to meet her grandma and come back to the kids later. After all, she had missed her so much.

She started moving towards her step by step…

Just then, a furious voice stopped her in her tracks, "Lola, how dare you leave me? You're in so much trouble now!"

She also heard her mother's voice urging her again, "Lola, Mom is here. Wake up and take a look at me. Please don't leave…"

Then she saw Angie, and then Wendy and Lillian, Grandpa and Dad. They all stood together with Harry. They looked so nervous and sad… More and more faces appeared beside them...

In the hallway of the hospital, Joseph crossed his fingers in front of his chest and prayed facing the window. "God bless her, please… Please bless her… Please let her wake up…" he murmured softly again and again.

Lillian sat on the bench with her daughter in her arms. She looked at her husband and felt sorry for him.

The door of the ICU was still closed. "Come on, Lola! People are waiting for you." She silently said willing the door to open.

In the ICU, Harry stayed with Lola. He held her hand tightly.

He could feel her breath and pulse becoming weaker by the moment.

Don't, please don't… His heart was in so much pain that he almost couldn't breathe.

"Lola, how dare you leave me? You're in so much trouble now!" He would get her back wherever she went, even if it meant the end of the earth.

Angie stood by the bed in sterile dressings. She continuously coaxed her daughter, "Lola, Mom is here. Wake up and take a look at me. Please don't leave…" She was sobbing, and her voice was choked.

"Lola, do you want me to live in guilt? Why are you being so cruel?" Harry questioned her. Tears welled in his eyes. He owed too much to her. How could he make amends with her?

Why didn't she give him a chance to make up to her?
