Captivation: Want Nothing But You novel Chapter 465

 The operation done to Victor lasted for more than 70 hours.

The door of the operating room opened and closed for several times as doctors went in and out.

Lukas and Carson couldn’t do anything but wait outside until the procedure was finished.

Finally, on the fourth day since the operation began, the indicator light outside the room was turned off.

This indicated that the surgery was successfully done.

Victor’s life was saved, but he wasn’t completely out of danger.

Then, he was wheeled to the ICU.

It was not until two days ago that his vital signs became stable.He became eligible to be transferred to the general ward.

However, he was still in a coma.

Carson invited an expert in the field to check Victor’s condition and give a diagnosis.

However, it wasn’t what he was expecting.

Victor sustained serious injuries.

Although his old wounds had healed, they still had an aftereffect.

Moreover, his new injuries just made matters worse.

In the end, he said that only a miracle could save Victor’s life.

"Can you at least tell us when he will wake up?" Carson asked in a gloomy tone.

"I’m afraid I can’t say that either."

The expert couldn’t help but frown as he made things straightforward.

"In fact, if I may be blunt, please consider preparing for the worst-case scenario."

"So, you’re saying there’s a chance that he’ll never wake up? Is he going to become a vegetable for the rest of his life?"

Although the expert didn’t say this, it was obvious that this was what he meant.

It was not a hundred percent, but there was a huge chance that this was it for Victor.

Except for Carson and Lukas, Rachel was the first one to know about this.

Carson Carson deemed that Rachel had the right to know.He leaned against the wall outside Joey’s ward, holding a cigarette between his fingers.He looked slightly disoriented, and there were dark circles round his eyes.He just went down to tell Rachel about this important thing.

But when Rachel heard the tragic news, her face didn’t show much surprise.

It was as if she had already prepared herself for something like this.

In fact, Carson was a bit shocked.He didn’t know when she became this mentally prepared.

Perhaps, it was when Victor had been in a coma for about half a month after the surgery.

Or it might have been even earlier.

She was also there outside the operating room for 70 hours before the indication light turned off.

After a moment of silence, Rachel glanced at the cigarette in Carson’s hand and reminded him in a low voice, "This is the area for children’s wards.You can’t smoke here."

As if he regained his senses, Carson put out the cigarette.

Seeing her indifferent expression, he didn’t bother continue discussing about Victor’s grim condition.He then changed the subject and asked, "Anyway, how is the little boy?"

"Joey? He’s fine.The doctor checked him up yesterday and said that he has been recovering pretty well.In fact, it’s expected that his plaster will be removed ahead of the initial schedule."

Carson turned his head and peeped through the glass panel on the door.

He saw Joey sleeping soundly in the bed.

With a faint smile, he stretched for a bit and said, "Good for him.Alright then, I’m leaving now."

After saying that, Carson turned around and left without looking back.

It seemed that he really just visited to tell Rachel about the doctor’s diagnosis regarding Victor’s condition.

Apart from that, he had nothing else to say.

In the blink of an eye, two days eventually passed by.

Although she was made aware of Victor’s condition, Rachel didn’t intend to visit him.She just stayed in Joey’s ward almost twenty-four hours a day.

At the same time, Carson didn’t show his face to her again.

Because the diagnosis came from an expert, she was also convinced that Victor would never wake up.

But now, Roger broke the news that Victor had miraculously woke up from being in coma.

Obviously, Rachel was stunned.She stared at Roger for a long time without being able to speak a word.

It was as if she was still judging Roger’s expression if he was saying the truth.

"So, Rachel… Do you want to go upstairs and see him?"

Roger asked slowly This time, Rachel pressed her lips hard and remained silent.

Out of nowhere, someone gently pulled her sleeve and pulled her back from her deep thoughts.

"Mommy, I want to see Daddy…"

It was Joey, pleading in a soft tone.She failed to hide the fact that Victor was in a coma after obtaining serious injuries.

When Joey woke up in the hospital, he actually had a vague guess.
