Chapter 221
Chapter 221
Arya was like a soulless puppet. She just quietly looked at the door of the emergency room. Her eyes
were void of all expression.
She heard Jacob's words, but she couldn't answer.
She was afraid that Daisy could not bear Xavier's incident after Bridget's.
After a long silence, Arya said, "Just... Wait." She almost summoned up all her strength to say these
words.
Waiting was the most painful thing, especially in this circumstance.
"Clean your wound." Jacob said.
The cut on her elbow was still bleeding.
But Arya didn't move or speak.
"I think boss didn't want to see you like this. I'll stay here. Just come back after treating."
Arya looked at herself in an unholy mess. Xavier would definitely be worried about her if he saw this.
Seeing that she understood his words, Jacob tipped the nurse a wink, signaling her to help Arya bind
up the wound.
There were a few injuries on her body but slight. The one on her elbow was more serious.
After treatment, she returned to the operating room right away. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
She was a little tired, leaning back against the wall.
After more than four hours of surgery, the door of the emergency room finally opened. Arya came over
immediately, "How is he?"
The doctor compressed his lips and looked at Arya. "We've tried our best, but he was badly injured, so
I'm afraid that he is not likely to wake up."
Arya staggered but didn't collapse.
Fortunately, when she saw how badly he was injured, she thought that she would lose him. Although
he was in a coma, he was still alive.
Xavier was sent to the ICU, and Arya could only look at him on the other side of the glass.
She still remembered how determined he was when he held her in his arms and block all the dangers
with his body.
She wouldn't forget how it felt when Xavier held her in his arms.
The feeling was thrilling and made people physically and mentally moved when someone risked his or
her life protecting others.
In the past, she knew that she was touched by this man, but she didn't open her mind to him.
Now, seeing him injured, she realized how much she cared about him and how fearful she was of
losing him.
Arya spent the night in the room Jacob arranged but didn't sleep much all night.
In the morning, Jacob bought her breakfast. Arya ate it not for herself, but the child in her belly. She
couldn't taste it, only chewed it and swallowed it. After dinner, Arya asked Jacob to bring Daisy here.
There was no way to hide the truth from her anymore.
"Let me tell her." Jacob worried that Daisy would vent her anger on Arya if she got furious.
Arya shook her head, as she thought she was Xavier's wife, and she should be the one who told her.
"Just bring her here. I'll tell her."
Jacob nodded. He wanted to say something to Arya but bit his tongue, only saying, "I'll go now."
After Jacob left, Arya got up and went to ICU to see Xavier. The doctor was also there. Xavier was out
of the 12-hours danger and now he could be transferred to the ward.
Doctors and nurses didn't let Arya do anything and arranged Xavier in a VIP clinic themselves. Arya got
a basin of warm water from the bathroom and gently wiped Xavier's face and hands.
The injury on his back was too serious, so he was lying on his side. Arya was lost in thought as she
looked at him.
After a long time, she muttered, "Thank you for not leaving me. No, it's me and the baby. You have
missed Ryan, do you want to miss another?"
The person lying there did not wake up at her words.
Jacob brought Daisy to the hospital.
"What's the matter? Why do you insist on me coming to the hospital?" As soon as she sent Bridget
away, she wanted to lead a peaceful life for a while.
She hated hospitals.
Jacob didn't tell Daisy anything but took her to the ward where Arya stayed. "Please wait. I'll call Mr.
Jones over."
Daisy asked Jacob many times, but Jacob didn't say a word, which made her nervous. Jacob was
around Xavier. Now that he brought her to the hospital, she always felt that something bad had
happened to Xavier.
When Jacob went to call Arya, Arya just finished wiping Xavier's face. Seeing Jacob, she put down the
basin and said, "I'll go right now."
Jacob followed her, "She's in the next room. I'll be at the door. Just call me if you want."
Arya nodded and walked to the door. She took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
Seeing Arya, Daisy burst out, "What happened? Why did you have Jacob bring me to the hospital?"
Arya did not answer immediately. Instead, she walked up to Daisy and knelt. Daisy was Xavier's mother
and naturally hers. Now that Xavier was in danger, she was afraid that Daisy would not be able to
accept it. "Mom..."
This made Daisy grieved. "Stand up. I will be relieved as long as you and Xavier lead a peaceful and
happy life."
Arya's eyes brimmed with tears. She opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word.
She took Daisy's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen. "Mom, no matter what happens, please
hold on, even if it's for the child."
Daisy was dumbfounded and her hands trembled. "What do you mean?"
Arya held Daisy's hand, "I'm pregnant."
"Really?" Daisy was happy but found it strange. If Arya had good news for her, why did she get her to
the hospital? "What exactly do you want to tell me?"
Daisy grasped Arya's hand. She might not feel her strength, but Arya could feel the pain. She didn't
speak out the pain, but reached out and covered the back of Daisy's hand with the other hand. "He...
He had an accident. He might not wake up for the rest of his life."
"Are you kidding me?" Daisy didn't believe it.
'How could that be?'
Arya knew it was hard to accept, not only Daisy but also herself.
Arya hugged the trembling Daisy and stroked her back. "I know I have many shortcomings that make it
difficult for you to accept me, but for the sake of Ryan and this unborn child, don't push me away, okay?
I don't want to leave him, and I don't want to put him in a difficult position."
Arya underestimated Daisy's fortitude. Henry had been away for a long time. Also, when she was
young, he often carried out dangerous tasks, which shaped her strong personality.
She just looked weak outwardly.
No matter how strong she was, she couldn't accept the bad news at this moment. Her voice changed,
"I want to see him."
Arya helped Daisy to Xavier's ward. Daisy had made psychological preparations, but when she saw
Xavier, she broke down.
Daisy covered her chest, and her vision gradually blurred. She teetered and said, "How could this be?"
Seeing this, Arya immediately called out, "Jacob."
Jacob came in quickly. Just as he was about to help Daisy, she pushed him away. "Tell me, what the
hell is going on?"
