Chapter 456
Genevieve and Noah were arguing in the office.
"No, call Nathaniel back no matter what!"
This was Genevieve's idea, but it was also her demand.
But Noah said firmly, "That's impossible. You and I both know what it means if Nathaniel comes back now."
"But in Mango's current state, you can't even guarantee what will happen to her tomorrow. If she really can't make it through, can you bear to let her not see her husband in the end? Noah, you are doing it for your friend's sake, but you're also a doctor. Think about it, if the person lying on the hospital bed today is me and no one tells you about my condition. When you come back, you would only see my state of illness or my corpse. So, what would you do then?"
Genevieve's comparison made Noah very uncomfortable.
"You won't!"
"I'm also a human being! I'm still a woman!"
"Genevieve, you and I are both doctors and we have excellent medical skills. I know that you are an expert in gynecology and you can solve complicated problems that others can't. As long as we survive these three days and after that, regardless of Mango's condition, I will inform Nathan to come back. Is that okay?"
Noah's words made Genevieve a little powerless.
"What if Mango doesn't make it past three days?"
Noah was a little stunned.
"Didn't you say that her surgery was successful?"
"Yes, the operation is very successful, but her body's condition is even worse now and her uterus is damaged. Whether or not there will be a big blood flow after this is unknown. I just temporarily stopped the blood for her, and I don't know what will happen later. You and I are both doctors, and both of us know what will happen after the operation. Now, the best way is to let Nathaniel come back and take care of Mango. Perhaps, maybe..."
Genevieve didn't say what she wanted to say, but Noah understood.
It wasn't that he didn't have compassion in his heart, but he had to stay firm with his opinion.
"I've said it before. Three days! As long as the last three days pass, I will let Nathan come back. I know that you feel sad and you also feel sorry for Mango, but only I know where Nathan is. If you want those outsides to besiege me, you can go and ahead to tell them the truth."
After finishing his words, Noah turned around and he left.
Genevieve bit her lower lip in anger, but she knew that she couldn't watch Noah be jointly attacked by the Hans family, the Ye family, and the Song family.
It turned out that selfish people were not only Noah but also her.
Sometimes, it was difficult to maintain personal integrity especially when it came to matters concerning their loved ones.
Genevieve slumped down on the chair and her heart filled with all sorts of discomfort.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
When Walter ran over, he saw Noah leaving the office with a gloomy face. Without thinking too much, he knocked on Genevieve's door directly.
"Dr. Bay, something bad has happened! The condition of Mango is not very good. You should go and have a look!"
Walter's voice was loud and clear.
Genevieve quickly got up and she ran towards the ICU.
When she arrived at the guardian room, Genevieve saw the panicked expression on Rainie's face and she hurriedly checked on Mango's body condition.
"The blood pressure is too high, and her mood is not stable. She must have had something that disturbed him in her dream. But fortunately, she didn't have a fever. I will give her a shot to calm her down so that Mango could sleep. All of you must stay alert to the data on the instruments around her, okay?"
Upon giving the instruction, Genevieve hurriedly gave Mango a shot.
Mango's uneasy heart condition slowly calmed down under the stimulation of the medicine.
Seeing that Mango quiet down again, Walter and Rainie were relieved.
"I will be waiting outside, so call me if there's anything."
Walter's words made Rainie nod.
Fortunately, Walter was there just now as Rainie was panicked at that moment.
"All right."
Genevieve looked at them, but in the end, she didn't say anything. She then lifted her feet to
walk out.
The night was very dark. Neither Rainie nor Walter had the mood to eat. They were watching over Mango from the inside and outside of the room.
In the middle of the night, Walter was a little sleepy.
Upon looking around, he found that there were bodyguards brought by Thomas not far away. Inside the room, Rainie was afraid of falling asleep, and she took a needle to poke herself to stay awake.
Walter yawned and he went to the bathroom to smoke a cigarette.
He stood up, looked left and right, before heading straight to the bathroom.
A nurse was pushing a cart into the ICU.
When Walter and the nurse passed by each other, he frowned slightly before asking.
"Is this the medicine for Mango?"
"Yes. Dr. Bay said that Mrs. Ye is too weak and she needs to take some medicine."
The nurse whispered.
Walter nodded and he felt that the nurse's voice was somehow familiar, but he did not think much about it.
"Be careful and be gentle too. Don't wake
Mango up."
"All right."
The nurse pushed the cart and she passed by him.
Walter went to the washroom. When he took out the cigarette case to smoke, he suddenly remembered about the nurse just now.
Why did he feel that the voice was so familiar?
Also, the nurse seemed to have applied perfume on her body.
Would a nurse wear perfume when she was on duty?
The concentration of the perfume was very low. Yet, since Walter had been fooling around women all this while, he was sensitive towards such fragrance scent.
Walter suddenly felt a little uneasy.
He hurriedly ran out of the bathroom before yelling at Thomas, "Go to the ward of the Mango! Catch the nurse just now!"
While in shock, Thomas didn't have time to think and he directly ran to Mango's ICU. Walter didn't give in and he quickly marched there as well.
Rainie didn't know what was going on. When she was about to fall asleep again, she heard the door opening. A nurse pushed a cart contained drugs and an IV drip set into the room.
She shook her head while trying to keep herself awake. Rainie couldn't help but ask, "It's already so late. Do we still need to get some drips?"
"Yes, Mrs. Ye's IV drips can't stop for three days."
"Oh, that's right!"
Rainie did not suspect him. She yawned and made way for the nurse. Rainie then turned around and she wanted to drink water to refresh herself.
At this time, the nurse suddenly knocked Rainie out with a hand knife.
She looked at Rainie falling to the ground. Turning around, she took out a dagger underneath the cart to stab Mango, who was lying on the hospital bed.
"Stop it!"
In a hurry, Thomas directly took off his shoes and he threw them towards the nurse.
The nurse didn't expect that Thomas would come so quickly. She quickly avoided him, but she still rushed towards Mango in the next moment. It seemed that she had the urge to kill Mango.
When Walter arrived, Thomas was struggling with the nurse.
He quickly reached Mango. When he saw that she wasn't injured, Walter let out a sigh of relief.
To ensure that the instrument around Mango was not damaged, Walter protected her.
When the nurse saw how difficult Thomas was to deal with, she immediately waved her hand. In the next moment, she threw her dagger at Mango on the hospital bed.
Seeing this, Walter directly threw the dagger away, but he didn't expect another attack from the other side.
Obviously, the nurse had predicted that Walter would dodge the attack. Once the first dagger was thrown out, the second one followed.
Walter could knock off the first dagger, but he couldn't escape the next strike.
At the critical moment, Walter directly stood in front of Mango.
With a "poof", the dagger stabbed into Walter's shoulder.
Blood then splashed out in an instant.
He groaned, but Walter didn't care about anything else. When he wanted to attack the nurse, Thomas turned a corner and he kicked the nurse to the ground.
The nurse intended to roll away on the spot, but she didn't expect that Walter would hover over to step on her directly. The next moment, he took off her mask.
The nurse's face was revealed in front of them.
Thomas shouted in surprise, "Susie? You know martial arts?"
Having been with Susie for so many years, both Thomas and Nathaniel were oblivious that she was skilled at martial arts.
Perhaps Macy would not expect her mother to have such ability if she was still alive.
Susie said harshly, "I made a mistake for not killing Mango. But even if I die and become a ghost, I won't let you off!"
After saying that, she was about to bite her tongue, but her chin was grabbed by Walter.
"Do you think that we are living in ancient times? Will I give you a chance to bite your tongue and commit suicide? So, you wanna die so badly? Don't worry, I will let you slowly experience something worse than death!"
With this, he kicked Susie to Thomas before saying coldly, "The Ye family can't even watch over someone. Seems like the family is unreliable after all." 'What do you mean?"
Thomas frowned slightly.
Walter, however, said faintly, "Still clueless about it? Since Susie could escape from the Ye family and she knew the exact location of Mango, don't you think that the Ye family has a mole within?"
Thomas suddenly fell silent.
He had also thought about this just now. However, if he did not bring Susie back to the Ye family, who would he trust?
At this moment, Walter threw a key to Thomas.
"I know the secret chamber at home. Susie can't die now, and I want to ask her about a lot of things. So, take her to the Song family."
Thomas was a little stunned.
More than anyone else, Thomas knew how much Walter hated him. Since Thomas was the illegitimate son of the Song family, Walter spared no efforts to ruin his reputation all this while. Hence, his decision now had shocked Thomas.
Walter seemed to know what he was thinking before saying coldly, "Don't think too much. I still hate you. I am doing this for the Mango."
Upon the words, Walter turned around and he walked over to Mango's bed. Seeing that she was still sleeping, he let out a sigh of relief. However, when he saw Rainie fainted on the ground, Walter spared no mercy on her and he directly poured a cup of cold water over her.
"Ah!"
Rainie screamed and he quickly woke up. When she saw the scene in front of her eyes, Rainie immediately panicked.
"Mango!"
"Mango is fine. You'd better change your clothes and call a nurse to tend my wound."
After Walter finished speaking, he directly sat down beside Mango's bed. As for the blood flowing out from his shoulders, he didn't seem to feel it at all. Instead, his pair of eyes stared straight at Mango.
