Chapter 313 Would You Like to Talk to Me?
These words invaded Evelyn’s ears, leaving her stunned and
disoriented. In an instant, panic took over her. No matter how
resolute she had been throughout the night, hearing the bad
news about him, she couldn’t help but sound choked up, “How
is he now? Is he okay?”
“He hasn’t regained consciousness yet. We need to perform gastric lavage first.”
Evelyn’s heart suddenly clenched with pain. She hurried downstairs to retrieve her car keys without even having time
to change her dirty clothes. “Doctor Lane, wait for me. I’ll be
there right away!”
After hanging up the phone, Evelyn hurriedly went to the garage. With the thought of Huston lying in the hospital, she was so flustered that she struggled to fasten her seatbelt,
attempting several times before finally securing it.
She had never driven this fast in her entire life. Normally, even slightly increasing her driving speed made her feel scared. However, now the speedometer displayed a speed exceeding
110 miles per hour, and she didn’t feel a trace of fear. Thoughts
of Huston entirely consumed her mind.
Did he not come back last night just to drink all night? He drank until he had lost consciousness and stomach bleeding.
Evelyn’s eyes became red, and she hastily wiped them with her hand, fearing that she couldn’t see the road ahead clearly. The thought of him mistreating his body in such a way made her chest tighten, and she struggled to catch her
breath.
It turned out that she was not the only one who was in pain. He was also in pain.
If she had known it would turn out like this, she would have forsaken all her pride and never pushed him away.
It was a nerve-wracking journey, but Evelyn finally arrived at the hospital. She hurriedly headed towards the department Kevin mentioned. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Kevin and a group of doctors and nurses pushing
Huston, who was on a stretcher, toward the hospital room.
She ran up to him in a few steps. Looking at the pale man with his eyes closed, Evelyn felt as if thousands of ants were biting
her heart.
A warm hand landed on her shoulder, and Evelyn turned her
gaze to see. Choking back her tears, she asked, “Is he… all
right?
“He’s temporarily stable, but his stomach condition isn’t good. He probably hasn’t been able to eat properly lately
and has to rely on nutrition injections and a liquid diet,” Kevin replied. Seeing Evelyn crying heavily, he could not utter the reproachful words he had intended to say. As she prepared to follow into the hospital room, he blocked her path slightly. “Evelyn, I’d like to talk to you for a moment.”
Evelyn looked at him with red eyes and then at Huston, who
was pushed into the ward. After hesitating for a few seconds, she lowered her head and said, “Okay.”
Kevin sighed silently and led her into the director’s office.
Mabel was organizing something in the office when she saw them enter. She made space for the two of them, and before leaving, she patted Evelyn’s shoulder to comfort her.
“Have a seat.” Kevin poured a cup of hot tea and placed
it on the table in front of Evelyn. “Huston’s condition isn’t
very serious. You don’t have to worry too much. His physical condition is quite good, and he can withstand the torture.” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
The last half of his sentence was clearly filled with emotions, as he was somewhat angry at that man for being so careless
about his health.
Evelyn put her hands on her legs and didn’t say anything.
“Did you argue?” Kevin tried to make his voice sound less tense, fearing that Evelyn would become even more guarded. He spoke kindly to her, saying, “Did something serious happen. for Huston to end up drinking like this? Are you willing to talk.
to me about it?”
Evelyn met his gaze, her eyelashes trembling slightly. After
hesitating, she anxiously asked, “Doctor Lane, do you know
the person in the villa in the northern part of the city?”
