Chapter 149: The secret is no longer a secret
“Elena ……” Everyone was singing the birthday song when Fred, who had been holding Elena’s hand, suddenly called out.
“Fred, what’s wrong?” Kevin and Albert heard Fred’s shout and immediately rushed over.
“Heartbeat, Elena’s heartbeat ……” Fred pointed his finger at the food, Elena’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated, he didn’t know if this was a good sign or bad, and was worried.
“Doctor, call a doctor.” Albert also saw that the song stopped and everyone heard the ‘tick tock’ sound.
The doctor rushed over, but Elena’s heartbeat suddenly slowed down after a fast beat, and her blood pressure kept going down.
“Quick, the patient is in critical condition and needs emergency treatment.” The doctor also panicked, how could this happen all of a sudden when she had been doing so well.
“Honey, you have to be okay, no, you must wake up quickly ……” Fred tried to grab Elena’s hand, but it was held by Albert and Fred together.
“Calm down Fred, it’s going to be okay, Elena is going to be okay.” Kevin’s eyes looked at the instrument and saw Elena’s pulse drop a little bit, and his heart sank a little bit.
“Mommy–” the two children saw despair from the adults and cried too.
Paul hurriedly hugged the two children, but did not know that Jeffery and Jack are not the average five-year-old children, the two broke away from him and rushed straight to the hospital bed.
“Mommy, mommy, you don’t want to die ……”
“Mommy, we don’t want you to die ……” the two children cried out and the mayor came to the hospital bed, he held Elena’s hand and prayed in his heart.
“Everyone go out first, give the doctor a space, you surround here, it will affect the doctor to save lives.” The head nurse came forward.
“Fred, let’s go outside and wait.” Albert and Kevin were afraid to let go, while Rebecca hugged her husband and cried.
The mayor took the two children by the hand and took them outside to wait.
Everyone stood outside the ward and watched the doctors busily resuscitating the patient. Originally, everyone was expecting a miracle, but now the situation did not seem to be what everyone thought it would be.
“Nurse, is she going to die?” Paul was even more worried when he saw at the door that the doctor was administering electric shocks.
“You have to trust the doctor.” The nurse reassured the crowd.
“Is she going to be okay? Chief Nurse, is my daughter going to be okay?” Gary also asked the head nurse uneasily.
“Mr. Kevin, please calm down, the patient’s situation, the doctor said early in the morning, there was already very little hope, and now this situation, it could also be a return, all of you should be sensible, life and death, we all can’t avoid ……”
“Shut up–” the head nurse was supposed to tell the truth, but Fred drank it down.
“Fred, you’d better rest for a while.” Albert and Kevin looked at each other, and their hands chopped down together toward Fred’s neck.
They were worried that Fred wouldn’t be able to handle it if the head nurse’s crowing hit him, so they decided it was better to let him sleep, no matter what the outcome was, and be happy or disappointed when he woke up than to go crazy like this now.
“Daddy–”
“It’s okay, good boy, daddy will be fine, and mommy will be fine, it’s going to be okay.” The mayor and his son each held a child, soothing and coaxing.
The children are still young and should not be made to face this. Today is the children’s birthday, Elena will be fine, otherwise how will the children be allowed to face the day later?
“Doctor, my daughter ……” Seeing the doctor come out from inside, both Gary and the mayor rushed up to him.
Gary looked at the mayor in shock, but the mayor ignored, now he did not have time to explain more, at this time he only wanted to know if his daughter was still alive.
“It’s really hard – hard to believe that she made it through.” The doctor looked back at the ward, a smile finally appearing on his face.
“Elena–”
“Wait, the patient just woke up and is still weak, you guys try not to ……” The doctor tried to stop, but the two excited dads rushed in.
“Elena, Elena–”
“Dad-” Elena opened her eyes and called out weakly, probably because she had slept too long, Elena’s voice was smaller than a mosquito, and you could only tell from the shape of her lips that she was calling for Dad.
“Mommy, you really have to wake up, you really have to wake up – mommy, you slept for a long time, we thought you were going to sleep all the time, wah wah ……”
The two children wailed and cried, even trying to get into bed, the mayor and Gary one by one carried them down.
“Mommy just woke up, you guys don’t make noise mommy, let mommy rest for a while.” Both grandfathers said at the same time.
Elena looked at the two children and tried to lift her hand but didn’t have the strength.
“Fred–”
“Elena, don’t worry, Fred is fine, it’s just that he was too noisy just now, Albert and I let him go to sleep.” Learning that Elena had woken up, Kevin came running in.
“Dad, the doctor – get the doctor -” Elena hadn’t forgotten her promise and grabbed the sheets to get up.
“Doctor, call a doctor-” the mayor said urgently.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
“No, get the doctor, the underground warehouse-” Elena said with all her strength, her face paling even more as she finished the sentence.
“Calm down, Ms. Elena, don’t get excited, you just woke up, your body is still weak, you need to rest.” The doctor came up to check on Elena and said to the crowd, “Can everyone leave first? The patient needs to rest.”
“No, brother, go get Dr. Barry-” Elena got anxious and once again said in a hoarse voice.
“Elena, the Dr. Barry you mentioned, he has been killed, you rest first, I’ll tell you later, okay?” Albert settled Fred back, just in time to hear Elena talk about saving Dr. Barry, busy over to explain.
“No–no way–” Elena shook her head and cried as soon as she heard that Dr. Barry had been killed.
“Elena, you rest first, you have been drowsy for a month, when you are better, I will tell you what happened in the past month, okay?” Albert came up and said soothingly.
“Yes, Elena, you go to sleep first, or mommy will stay here with you.” Rebecca snapped at this point.
Elena nodded her head sadly, she wanted to know what was going on, but she really didn’t have the strength to talk.
Everyone was out of the ward, and only Rebecca and the two children were guarding the hospital bed.
“Mayor, may I ask if ……” Outside the ward, no one left, they were all sitting on the bench waiting, when Gary seemed to remember something and got up to ask the mayor who was sitting on the side.
“I know, Elena may need to rest for a while, can we talk outside?” The mayor looked at Gary, and he didn’t mind letting Gary know.
Just with that feeling he had for Elena, he was sure he could keep it a secret.
“Dad, I’ll wait here and I’ll call you when she wakes up.” Paul volunteered when he saw his dad looking over.
The mayor nodded his head and left the hospital with both Gary.
In the teahouse, Gary and the mayor sat face to face, although he was the mayor, but now he was in casual clothes, and in the teahouse, and it was still office hours, so I guess no one would think that he was the mayor.
“City–”
“Brother, we’ve only just met, but you don’t have to be so rusty.” Mayor Warren took the initiative to refer to himself as brother.
“Good, then I’ll be polite. Older brother, how long have you known my Elena?” Gary was not good enough to ask at the beginning, so he avoided the question.
“It’s only because of this accident that I know. In fact, when I came to see Elena that day, I heard the conversation between my sister-in-law and Ms. Carole, and was suspicious at the time, so I asked my son to get an identification afterwards.” The mayor said bluntly.
Gary was stunned and puzzled, “She didn’t recognize you?”
“At that time, we were both drunk, it was just an accident, I left the first time after waking up knowing that I had made a mistake, so she should not have known me.” The mayor was embarrassed to say, besides even if she had an impression back then, after so many years, they had both changed, it was normal for her not to recognize him.
“So that’s it, so what are your plans now? To identify with Elena? Or to meet Carole ……”
“No…… year was a mistake after all, besides, we do not know each other, not to mention each other have families, no need to destroy each other’s happiness again, Elena that, I want to wait for Elena to recover.” Mayor Warren had a slight concern said.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to recognize Elena, it’s just that, as his son said, that woman Carole is a bomb, and he must think it through.
“That’s right, let’s wait until Elena recovers. Carole’s return to China has brought Elena a lot of harm, and maybe in her heart Elena will reject you. Gary nodded his head and sighed lightly.
“I know, I will ask Elena’s opinion, admit or not, she is my daughter, I will try my best to make up for all these years, thanks for taking care of Elena all these years,” the mayor nodded his head in shame and gratitude. What happened back then has already happened, and regretting it won’t help, so all that can be done now is to do a little bit of elder duty.
“I should say ‘sorry’ to you, Elena is a good child, but back then, because of her origin, I did not like to explain to my wife, so that she always thought Elena is my children outside, all these years, she was not very good to Elena. ” Gary stood up and bowed to the mayor.
“No, you have done well enough, don’t ever say that, it’s best that Elena has a good home these days.” The mayor followed suit and got up, holding Gary up.
“Yes, but they have never had a wedding, originally we were thinking of a scenic wedding banquet for Elena at the end of the year, but now we see that it is too late, why don’t we discuss with Fred and give them a wedding after the year?” Gary asked the mayor for his opinion.
“Yes, of course–” the mayor said with some excitement at the words.
“The boy has suffered a lot since he was a child, I hope all the disasters leave with the bad luck.” Gary sighed.
The mayor’s eyes were a little red, Elena was injured in the hospital and in a coma these days, it was also torment for him, but the good thing is that he all spoke with his wife and also obtained her understanding, now, he was just thinking how to make Elena accept him, “Yes, I also want to hear her call me ‘Dad. “
