But I have written a resignation report.
Then a phone number flashes. It is from the nanny at home.
I pick up the phone and feeling myself corrupting the moment I hear the news.
She tells me that my mother falls off the bed and is in the emergency room!
I don’t know how I manage my way to the hospital. When I arrive , my mind still blurs. I don’t know where to find my Mom. But I am fortunate enough to have Andy come with me.
She calls back Nanny and knows where my mother is.
At the door of the operating room, the nanny bursts out a cry immediately when she sees me. I couldn’t help crying and ask the doctor.
“The situation is very dangerous and requires a craniotomy, but we will try our best!”
The doctor is wearing a mask and couldn’t see his face, but his voice is gentle and young. When he sees me, he raises his eyebrows. The eyes light up.
I sign the operation consent form with a daze mind, pay the operation fee, and sit at the door of the operating room.
“Nanny, what is going on?” I ask. Wipes away her tears.
“This morning, I push wheelchair to take your mother to the park as usual, and then go to the supermarket to buy vegetables. After returning home, your mother says that she is a little tired and wants to sleep for a while. Help her to go to bed to rest. I prepare the meal and take out the garbage. It takes ten minutes at most. When I come back, I find that the door of the house is wide open. Your mother fell to the ground with blood on her head.”
“Was the door closed when you went out?”
“Well, every time I go out, I close the door. It’s all because I wasted time talking with my friends, otherwise, three or four minutes would be enough to take out the trash.”
Nanny keeps wiping tears.
“Florence was already in a coma when I got home.” The aunt continues,
“I called 119 quickly. I am too anxious and can’t bring my phone out.”she starts crying again.
“Auntie, it’s not your fault, don’t be sad! Did you lose something at home?”
I know that she is a very responsible person, she has taken care of me since I was a child, and now my mother, and she must be very sad.
“There was no time, but I found that the door was broken and the house was messed up.”
“What did the police say?” Andy asks anxiously.
“Alexia, do you suspect that your mother’s fall was ?”
I duck my head, and Andy nods first,
“Auntie needs help. Even if she has something urgent to do, she will wait for you, and even if she falls off the bed, it won’t be so serious! So I’m sure this is human incident!”
“The police should investigate.” I frown.
“But I can’t go back now, and I don’t know where my cell phone is.” Nanny is also very depressed.
Andy can help check the situation at home.
Then we receive a call from a colleague.
Although we ask for leave, Angle is very angry. She says that she would deduct our salary and bonus. Andy couldn’t bear it, she immediately calls Angle and says she would resign.
I just remember that I am too anxious to leave, the computer isn’t shut down yet, and the resignation report I just typed is still in the draft box, but now I can only ask my colleagues to help shut down the computer.
But I don’t know that the moment I left the office, Bella passes by my desk “by accident” and sent it “kindly”.
So now not only does Angle know that I resigned, but even Calvin knows, because as soon as Angle receives this resignation letter, she immediately forwards a copy to the president’s office ecstatically. At this moment, as Alexia waits anxiously at the door of the operating room, the atmosphere in the president’s office drops to a freezing point.
And Warren has never seen anyone makes the president sad.
Calvin’s POV
I walk into the toilet and look at myself in the mirror and smiles. She may have had several boyfriends, but why did she lie. She said she went out with Andy, but the fact is the man at night, and was discovered by my subordinates and reported to me.
Why did she lie to me!
Alex’a POV
On the other hand, the operation is finally over after three hours, and my mother is transferred to the general ward. I am finally relieved,
“Thank you, doctor!” I smile happily .
“With our Doctor Black, don’t worry, he is an expert!” The nurse beside him also smiles and comforts everyone.
“Also, Alexia, I didn’t bring that much money. It was Dr. Black who agreed to operate immediately, and I borrowed his mobile phone to call you.” Nanny is very grateful to Dr. Black.
“Thank you!”
“You’re welcome, you can rest first.” Doctor Black looks at me and couldn’t move his eyes away.
I shake my head, “I’m just waiting here! Andy, Nanny, go home and take a rest, I want to stay a while with my mother.” After hearing what I said, they didn’t force me to rest.
I guard in a chair outside the ward all night, and when I wake up, I find a blanket on my body.
I thought it is the nurse who covered it for me, but the nurse says that the blanket is from Doctor Black.
I am a little surprised. When I arrive at his office, I see a very young man sitting inside.
I am a little confused, but he says hello, “I am James Black.”
I am a little surprised because he is so young, completely different from what I expected.
“Do you think I’m too young?” Doctor Black curses his lips and asks me to sit down.
“Yes, hello, my name is Alexia Brown, thank you for the blanket.” I return the blanket to him.
“I’ve seen your mother, she’s in good condition, you can go home and rest.”
I look up at Dr. Black’s gentle eyes, which had a convincing power. I pause for a while, then nod,
“Okay.”
But not long after I take my steps towards home, I receive another call from the hospital. When I rush to the hospital, my mother is sent to the operating room again. The doctor asks about my mother’s past medical records. I am very familiar with my mother’s medical records.
“She fell down stairs six years ago and suffered a lumbar fracture…”
“Your mother’s situation is a bit complicated. You should be prepared. The situation may be more dangerous and the cost may be higher.” The doctor frowns.
“How much do I need to prepare?” I am about to cry.
“Prepare 100, 000 first!” The doctor is called away by the nurse .
All of a sudden, I collapse .
Yesterday I borrow 10, 000 US dollars from Andy, but the money is almost spent, and then I pay a lot more, but it is still not enough. I suddenly feel so desperate and cold all over.
“Alexia, I still have money.” Nanny is also scared by the doctor’s quote.
I shake my head. I won’t ask for Nanny’s money. She dosn’t earn muc and has a family to feed.
The more I thought about it, the more frightened I am. I want to talk with Dr. Black, but the nurse tells me that Dr. Black has another operation this morning and I have to wait.
“How could this happen? Didn’t Dr. Black say that the operation is a success yesterday?” Andy screams when she hears the doctor’s words.
Finally, Dr. Black’s operation is over, and I rush to his office,
“I’m looking for you, sit down.”I couldn’t say anything. I just listen to his instructions mechanically.
Andy and Nanny also enter the office.
Dr. Black pours a glass of water , tells me to sit down, then push the medical diagnosis in front of me, and says patiently,
“Ms. Alexia, your mother has been successful in the operation, but she is too weak to have infection complications. The medication has been increased.”
“Then my mother, will she die?” I shiver and ask the question . But Dr. Black is silent.
I know that the worst could happen. Originally, he is my hope. I wait for him for so long to tell me that my mother would be well. But at the moment my illusion is disillusioned.
The atmosphere in the office suddenly becomes depressed. Nanny and Andy couldn’t help crying, but at this moment, I couldn’t cry anymore.
“Alexia, we will do our best to save your mother! Don’t worry!” Doctor Black looks at my sad expression, and he is a little sad.
“By the way, Dr. Black, I have a question.” Andy asks suddenly,
“Auntie just fell off the bed. Even if she hit her head, it won’t be so serious? Could it be that she was hit by a heavy object ?”
Doctor Black shakes his head and says, “There is no sign of a heavy hit. She has an intracranial hemorrhage. There are many reasons can cause this, and it may also be caused by irritation.”
“Oh.” Andy looks at me.
I thought my mother is finally managing through a dangerous period. I didn’t expect her to have an intracranial hemorrhage again and need a second operation.
Hearing this news, I almost break down. I have submitted my resignation report and no longer have a job, and the money I borrow is almost used up. If I don’t have any money, then my mother can’t even live in the general ward. What should I do?
I’m really desperate looking at money getting less and less, and now I don’t even have anyone to rely on. After thinking about it, I call my dad.
