The notion flashed past and disappeared. Meanwhile, the doctors started to make preparations for the surgery, and they also contacted the blood bank to arrange for an urgent transfer of RH negative blood. Despite having Brian as a donor, the amount of blood needed was much more than he could supply.
Brian arrived quite soon and it was quite obvious that he had made his way here in a hurry. His hair was a mess upon arrival, and the first thing that he asked was, “How’s North doing?”
Olivia remained quite downcast and she had. gone to see North while they waited for Brian to get here. After that, she went to the washroom and hid there to cry, but she didn’t let Eugene know about that as she didn’t want him to blame himself.
However, Eugene had actually noticed and definitely blamed himself for all this of course. The guilt and regret hit him like a wave and he had a strong urge to bash himself.
North had only been with him for about ten days in total, and he had taken care of North carefully because he didn’t want any accidents. at all. However, he didn’t expect that they would resort to such underhanded tactics and he couldn’t even have guarded against this.
Right now, North was inside and in a critical condition. There was no knowing how things would turn out. At that moment, Eugene was broken-hearted.
As soon as Eugene saw Brian arrive, he rushed Brian ahead while saying, “Don’t ask any questions for now. I’ll explain everything to you once you come out. Hurry up and go and complete the checkups.”
Without any delay, Brian followed one of the doctors and he went through several tests to ensure that his blood was suitable. Finally, he was pushed into the operating theater after going through all of the processes.
Naturally, he saw North lying lifelessly on the hospital bed and the little fellow’s lips were purplish. North’s tiny face was as pale as at sheet and devoid of any color. If Brian didn’t see the slight heave on North’s chest, then he would definitely have thought that…
His heart ached badly at this point. After all, this was his little nephew here and Olivia’s precious child. How could the kid have ended up in such a bad state?
“What happened to the child?”
The doctor replied, “He was poisoned. We need to proceed with a blood exchange transfusion to integrate your fresh blood into his poisonous one and dilute the effect. Are you ready? We’ll start now.”
Brian couldn’t contain his shock, but he didn’t dare to hold things up so he quickly responded, “I’m ready. Let’s proceed.” The doctor inserted the apparatus, and Brian’s bright red blood came out from the transparent tube slowly.
Meanwhile, Brian shut his eyes and thought, Once the little fellow’s fine, the first thing that I’m going to make him do is thank me. To think that he keeps going against me too! Meanwhile, outside the operating theater, Eugene and Olivia waited impatiently. “Don’t worry, North will be fine.”
Eugene looked at Olivia, who suddenly looked quite weak, and he could feel his heart clench. If he was able to leave right now, he would definitely tear those people to pieces.
However, she remained silent as she kept her eyes fixated on the tightly shut doors to the operating theater. What am I going to do if anything happens to North?
Suddenly, his cell phone rang loudly and it interrupted both of their thoughts. He took the phone in his hands and glanced at it. It was Curtis on the line.
He kept one hand around Olivia’s shoulder while he used the other hand to swipe on the phone to answer the call. “How’s everything?” Curtis’ voice sounded quite relieved. “President Nolan, I’ve captured Samantha. Where do you want me to bring her?”
Eugene instructed expressionlessly, “Bring her to the underground cellar. Just keep her barely alive.”
As soon as he said that, Curtis instantly knew what he meant. “Okay, President Nolan. How about the rumors on the Internet? Should we continue investigating that?”
Eugene clenched his teeth and answered, “Yes, I want you to find the person who spread the rumor, after which I’ll sue that guy. Get the personal relations team on it too. I want them to release a statement on the Nolan Group official website stating that we will prosecute those who maliciously slander and spread wicked rumors about my girlfriend.”
Curtis had a knowing look on his face upon hearing that. Indeed, that statement released on their official website stating that President Nolan was not related to Miss Maxwell at all wasn’t of his higher up’s own accord.
“President Nolan, you must not have seen the statement released on our official website.” At that point, Eugene frowned as he asked, “What statement?”
