“To Aubree Wilson’s friends who know her, please contact her family members to sign the critical illness notice. Also, she needs blood type A urgently because the blood available in the bank is dangerously insufficient. Please …”
Before the sentence ended, there was an ear-piercing sound coming from the speaker, followed by an immediate silence.
The doctor looked towards Jacob Dean who grabbed over the microphone. He swallowed nervously.
“Mater Jacob, what are you doing?” Jacob who stood in front of him was one of the biggest shareholders of this hospital, followed by the Hudson Group.
Jacob raised his eyebrows, put down the microphone softly and said, “Oh! Not bad, you know me.”
“The only reason that makes me appear is to warn you that you all must save this patient regardless of the methods.” Jacob stood straight with his hands in the pockets.
“Which patient did you mention just now?” The doctor said with a bitter smile. He was just an intern who totally cannot afford to offend such people.
“Aubree Wilson.”
“But, her family members have not signed for her and to make things worse, she needs blood transfusion immediately even though the bank does not have enough blood.”
“Come. Have a look at my face.” Jacob pointed his fingers towards his face and showed to the doctor.
“Ah?” The doctor was stunned.
“Does my face look eligible to excuse her from those signatures?” Jacob thought that talking with him was a waste. He also said, “One more thing, the low amount of blood in the bank means that there is still some blood left, I want you all to try your best to save her.”
“If she dies, you all will need to leave this city too.”
The intern nodded but he knew that he could not decide on this matter. He needed to ask for the chief’s instruction.
In the small room, Jacob sat on a small stool with his legs crossed.
Jacob’s expensive and clean suit seemed incompatible with this place, but fortunately, the family members of patients outside could not see it.
He appeared to be relaxed but he was frustrated on the side. Silently, he had scolded Sidney Hudson almost one million times. This was the first time he thought that he had Schizophrenia. It was because he supported Jacob to revenge at first but he blamed Sidney for being too cruel afterwards.
Whenever he remembered Aubree’s pitiful look when she laid on Sidney’s car window, he could not wait to stab Jacob for a few times.
If he did not follow Aubree secretly, he did not know what would happen afterwards!
Jacob took his phone out. He really wished to tell Sidney that Aubree had committed suicide. However, he could not bear because Sidney had almost collapsed now. If he told Sidney about the incident, this would take away Sidney’s life.
“Excuse me.” Riley Harris took a peek from a small door. He asked to confirm the message delivered through the speaker just now.
“Little boy, do you love Aubree ?” Jacob knew that Riley was the one who fetched her to the hospital. Riley ran a few red lights and was overtaking during the journey. Jacob said, “Do you want to die so you drove your car like that?”
“How do you know? Do you follow me? Do you know Aubree ?” Riley was like seeing hope and asked, “Are you Aubree’s family member? Can you sign for her?”
“And the thing, the amount of blood in the bank is critically low. Although my blood is not type A, I have many friends, there must be someone having blood type A.”
Jacob looked at his funny motions and said, “Alright, she will be fine because I am here.”
After Riley heard about that, he was relieved and said, “That’s good …”
Suddenly, Riley’s phone rang and he noticed that there were a few missed calls from Hendrix Elliot.
“Hey.” Riley said angrily.
“There is someone who is looking for trouble just now. I have settled everything. Why did you call me ?”
“Something happened to Audree. She is in the operating room now.”
The other side of the phone remained silent. Riley thought that the connection was not good and hung up the phone after calling for a few times.
“Normally, Aubree seems like do not have any friends because she doesn’t like to talk with strangers. I cannot imagine that things become different when comes to important moment.” Jacob sighed. He knew that it was difficult to be friends with Audree due to her characteristics.
Jacob looked towards Riley for a while and asked, “Little boy, do you love Aubree?”
Riley’s hand shook and he looked away from Jacob, “No, the person who loves Aubree is the other one else.”
“Oh?” Jacob was not in the mood to tease him, “Never mind, it is very normal for people to like her since she is very beautiful.”
Riley frowned. He did not want to talk about this and said, “I am going out.”
He left Jacob who was sighing alone in the small room.
After an hour, Aubree came out from the operation room. Jacob looked towards her small face at a distance. He cannot bear to go near her because she was hurt by Sidney and meanwhile, he was considered as the accomplice.
Until he witnessed Aubree entering her ward, he was willing to leave.
At the same time, with lots of sweats, Hendrix ran past Jacob. They looked towards each other and walked separately afterwards.
Hendrix stopped in front of Aubree’s ward. He was gasping and his mind was blank because he did not dare to enter.
He still hated Aubree.
The reason that he hated Aubree was not that she did not rescue him. It was not her fault.
He hated Aubree because she never visited him when he stayed in the hospital for such a long time.
After hesitating, Hendrix clenched his fists. He looked at Aubree secretly and was heart-breaking.
Through a phone message, Riley told Hendrix that he did not have enough money to pay the fees of the single ward for Aubree. He also found it embarrassing to ask money from his family so he could only let Aubree stay in a triple ward.
Without any hesitation, Hendrix transferred all his money from the competition to Riley.
At that time, Hendrix could sacrifice his legs for Aubree, how about this small amount of money.
——
Three days later.
In Hudson Mansion.
Sidney locked himself in a room and sat on a sofa without any movement.
Steward Martin and Everly Mills were very nervous and they almost hit the door. In these three days, Sidney did not eat and drink anything.
If this continued, Sidney would die.
“Master Sidney, you need to eat something. If not, at least, drink some water!” Everly carried some food and water in front of the door. She was also afraid that her excessive shouting annoyed Sidney.
Everly sighed and her eyes turned red. When she knew that Sidney adopted Aubree for a reason, she felt very upset.
Since young, Audree had been leading an extravagant and luxury lifestyle and now she lost almost everything. What would happen if she turned into a homeless…
“If Master Sidney finds Aubree and consoles her, this problem could be solved, right?” Everly whispered. This was heard by Steward Martin.
Steward Martin also felt helpless and said, “Do you think that Aubree will forgive Master Sidney?”
“Even if she could forgive Master Sidney, he could not forgive himself.”
These words entered Sidney’s ears through the door.
He raised his fingers but he did not know what to do so then, he put them down weakly.
In these days, he had been collapsing and whenever he let himself relax for a moment, he would feel heartbreaking.
There was no one who knew Aubree better than him. Aubree seemed well-behaved and polite. However, she was very stubborn.
So, whenever she believed that she had lived in a false lie for nine years, she would never look back.
