When Nathan heard Kate’s words, there were some questions that he had for her. First off, he wanted to ask when did she encounter Melanie. What happened during the commotion? Did they get into a fight? Did Kate get hurt in the process? Did she recall the hurtful things that he had done to her after meeting that disgusting woman?
He used to be able to mention what was on his mind to her but right now, he had to rehearse the words in his mind several times. Yet, he didn’t even dare to mention a single word.
At that moment, the doors to the operation theater slid open to reveal the doctor walking out of the room. Instantly, Olivia and Eugene walked forward.
The doctor removed his face mask and beamed widely. “It was very successful. If everything goes well, the child should regain consciousness tonight.”
Olivia immediately snuggled her face into Eugene’s chest and soon enough, her tears soiled the front of his shirt. He kept his arms around her tightly as he expressed his gratitude to the doctor.
At that point, everyone, including Kate and Nathan, had relieved expressions. The doctor continued, “We’ve only managed to clear the poison in his bloodstream, but it would be better to consult a TCM doctor to handle the poison in his liver and kidneys.”
Olivia replied instantly upon hearing that, “Sure thing. Thank you.” As long as North had been resuscitated, she could handle the rest. “How’s my brother doing?” Eugene asked. ‘He’s fine too, the doctor replied. “Make sure to give him some nutritious food to replenish the blood he lost.”
Meanwhile, Eugene nodded and agreed. ‘Will do.” As they spoke, Brian had already been wheeled out of the operation theater and Olivia instantly went to his side. “Brian, how are you feeling?”
Brian was originally quite fair and right now, he was much paler than before. His face was devoid of color and he looked quite sickly. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
Suddenly, Olivia felt the tears well up in her eyes and her voice became hoarse too. “Thank you.” Brian brushed her off by waving his hands at her. “Hey, you’re being overly courteous here. We’re family! Besides, I didn’t even thank you for saving me.”
Olivia nodded. “You should stop talking and get some rest. I’ll go and get you some nutritious food to replenish the blood you lost.” ‘Sure,” Brian agreed. Soon after that, a nurse wheeled him into the ward.
A few minutes later, North was also wheeled out of the operation theater and the little fellow remained unconscious. His face was much paler than ever but the purplish tinge on his lips had faded significantly. Olivia trailed after the nurse and she called out instinctively as the tears slowly streamed down her face. “North! North…”
Meanwhile, Eugene looked at her sad expression and he was quite tempted to kill someone. Ever since he had entered into a relationship with Olivia, the mother-and-son duo. had encountered countless issues. This was the second time that North had gotten into danger.
They all went along to the ward and the nurse installed a drip for North. Then, she plugged in all of the cables to the monitoring equipment before leaving the room. Olivia sat next to North’s bed and she lifted the little fellow’s arm to run a consultation.
His heart rate was now back to normal and it was no longer irregular. However, he was still quite weak and lacked energy. His face was still quite pale too, and there was an unhealthy pallor on his face. But overall, his body should be fine, right?
Once he regained consciousness, he could start to take some medicines two days later paired with acupuncture and everything should be fine.
Eugene shot a look at Nathan. “Send someone to get some food. All of us haven’t eaten yet. Get some nutritious food rich in iron.” Nathan responded, “I’ll go. I know a place that serves great food.” After he had said that, he turned to leave.
Meanwhile, Kate stayed in position and hesitated for quite some time. At the same time, she couldn’t stop berating him in her mind, He’s a patient himself! How can he go and buy us food? He’s overestimating himself!
Despite her berates, she was still quite worried about him going out by himself. In the end, she muttered, “I’ll go with him. He wouldn’t be able to lift much with that fractured arm.”
