Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1185

"Ah! Blood! Someone's dying!"

"Ambulance! Call an ambulance..."

"Christian, are you okay?"

The scene turned chaotic in an instant. Christian blacked out fell onstage all of a sudden. Before Alicia could react, Frederick had pulled her into his arms and pressed her head to his chest, taking her to safety and handing her over to Beth and Tessa.

"Take Alicia home now!"

Inside the hospital, the 'operating' sign lit up. Frederick shot a glance at Chet, who slowly backed away and disappeared into the crowd.

The Clements family crowded the corridor. Gary looked grim; as the male elder of the family, he naturally became the pillar at this time. As the 'operating' sign still lit up, everyone looked at each other for a long time, but none spoke.

Soon, the sign switched off, and everyone rushed toward the door.

"Doctor..." "Doctor, how is my husband? Is he okay?"

An older middle-aged doctor took off his mask.

"Madam, Master Gary, Mr. Clements was triggered, which caused his blood pressure to elevate, resulting in the capillaries in his brain rupture, leading to hemorrhage in the brain and severe hydrocephalus. Judging from the x-ray, he's in severe condition. We've already done all we can to save him, but he's still in a comatose state. You have to be prepared that he might lose the ability to speak, hemiparesis, and other conditions even if he wakes up. If he can't, he'll become a vegetable!"

"How could this be? Doctor, you must save my husband..."

"Dad! No, doctor, you have to save my father!"

Things went out of control for a moment. The doctor could only shake his head helplessly. "We've tried our best to keep him alive!"

Then, he led everyone to the ICU and instructed them before leaving.

Outside the ward, there were wails of grief as they looked inside.

Sometime later, Gary said with a grim look. "Why are you crying? Christian is still alive! Swallow your tears back, all of you! He'll be fine!"

His roar finally got everyone quiet down.

Then, Penny said, sobbing, "Gary, what... what are we to do now that we're widow and orphans?"

She glanced over at Frederick, who had been silent all the while, as she spoke, feeling a little frustrated. Why couldn't Christian hang on for a few more days? They still haven't had a firm footing.

"What do you mean what are you to do? Life goes on! I should be asking, Penny, what's up with Mason? It was supposed to be a celebration and now this! How will our family now look with what happened in that event?

"It's all that d*mned woman's fault. She keeps pestering like a leech and even got Dad angry this time!"

Mason growled upsettingly. After Penny pinched him, none of them spoke again. Gary spoke up, feeling a throb in his head.

"No thanks to you! Hurry up and get someone to check on that woman! Go and appease her first; we don't need another trouble on our hands! We have to be extra careful at this time. There are a lot of reporters out there; looks like it'll be tough to keep this news down. We'll think of a solution later!

Gary waved his hand irritatedly. Mason nodded, having no choice but to agree to the arrangement.
