Chapter 99 Conor and William Were Eliminated
Jasper went over to look for Matthew.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Matthew told him, “Her condition is sudden and should be related to her emotions. When she was brought here, she was in a coma and her blood pressure was high. The film showed that there was bleeding in the brain. The amount of bleeding was less than 30 ml. The location of the bleeding was in the midbrain. It will be treated conservatively for the time being and allowed to undergo absorption on its own.”
“What are the odds of self-absorption?”
“This depends on the patient. Some patients can absorb it completely and return to normal. Some patients who don’t adjust their mindset well will not only fail to absorb it, but will also trigger secondary bleeding.”
“……”
“Go and ask your uncle if she’s had any major unhappiness lately.”
“……” Jasper didn’t ask, he turned to answer the message directly, a little lighter than Matthew had said: “It’s not that serious, just a little bleeding. The doctor said the bleeding is small, so let it absorb itself and it will be fine after a while.”
Her eldest son, Jaiden, immediately said, “That’s right! Don’t be afraid! My friend’s uncle also had a stroke and after six months of recuperation, he is now alive and well. My mum must be fine, so you guys shouldn’t think too much and scare yourselves.”
Her second son Sean, said: “Grandpa, don’t worry, my mother is such a good person, she will definitely be favoured by God. Grandpa, why don’t you and dad go home first? Auntie and uncle also go home early to rest. My brother and I will guard here.”
Jacob did not move, his old voice majestic and shocking: “I am not going back. I want to see her out safely. You all often anger me, but Nora is the only one who can make me happy. I want to keep watch over her.”
Evelyn was afraid he could not make it: “Dad, you’d better go back, you are at such an old age! What will your sister-in-law think if you get sick from exhaustion?”
Edwin followed suit, “Dad, my sister is right, if you were to get sick, Nora would blame herself even more. She has to be at peace with this illness, she can’t suffer any more stimulation.”
“Dad, you go back first! Get well and come back to see Nora tomorrow!”
“Dad, you go back first! I’ll have Jasper be the first to call you if there’s any news, okay?”
Jacob thought about it and finally agreed to go back, but he had a request: “Don’t tell William about this matter yet. He relies on Nora the most, so if he finds out that Nora is sick, he will definitely cry.”
Jasper was upset.
He went to the stairwell for a cigarette, one after another: it’s his fault! It’s all his fault! He shouldn’t have checked!
4am.
Matthew sent a message, “Things are not too bad, she woke up for two minutes just now, she can recognize me, but she can’t speak very well. When the blood absorbs, she will be able to speak clearly.”
6am.
Nora woke up and was taken from the treatment room to the senior VIP ward. She looked calm, but her eyes kept looking at Jasper.
Jasper held her hand and looked into her eyes, “Don’t think too much, get well first. Once you get well, you can see William’s children in the future, right?”
Nora’s eyes were red.
See grandchildren for William?
Did she still have that chance?
Jasper knew she had something to say.
Only the two of them were left inside the ward, Nora spoke with difficulty, spitting out slurred words: “I know you’ll keep it a secret …… but it can’t be covered forever …… you can know about it, others can also find out about it …… What if that man comes back for William and has to send William back to the Bates family?”
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
Her blood pressure shot up and burst a blood vessel.
Her family was also genetically predisposed to strokes; her father had two strokes, the last of which was resuscitated to death. Her brother had a stroke some years ago, and because he was rescued in time, he suffered the after-effects of a slanted mouth.
She didn’t know what would happen to her, but she still couldn’t let go of William in her heart: “When I got him, he was only this little. After I took him home, he was still very small. I didn’t dare close my eyes and touched his nose every now and then to see if he was still breathing. I was so nervous when he fell and when he was sick, I was afraid that something would happen to him. I couldn’t let him go, Jasper.”
Jasper squatted beside the bed and came up to her ear to whisper, “Auntie, he’s already 24, even if he returns to the Bates family, can the Bates family tie him up? He can’t go back to the Sharp family on his own?”
Nora’s expression was dull, as if she hadn’t thought about this.
In her heart, William had always been small and in need of her care.
Jasper couldn’t irritate her any more and advised her again, “Auntie, if that man wants to find him, would he have waited until now? A 24-year-old child is someone he can take away just because he wants to? Auntie, if he wants to find William, he would have come over when William was small.”
Feeling reasonable, Nora looked at him, “What if he really comes?” Suddenly, she gripped Jasper’s hand tightly, “Jasper, can you help me find him? If he’s no longer alive, I can feel relieved.”
Jasper knew she was stubborn.
But he wouldn’t say yes, and she kept looking at him, pleading.
He could only agree, “Yes! I’ll find him for you! When you are better, I will call the painter to come over. You tell me what he looks like, and I’ll have the painter draw it accordingly. Once the painting is done, I’ll arrange for someone to check. If I don’t show up, he won’t know I’m the one checking him out, how’s that?”
Nora nodded and settled his mind in peace.
She went back to sleep, and after less than five minutes, she suddenly woke up with a start, her body jerking, “William, I want William.”
The doctor came over and gave her an injection to force her to calm down.
Matthew said, “She has something in her heart, and it has something to do with William. If you want her to heal well, I think you should call William over to take care of her. When she sees William, her heart can be down to earth, which is good for her recovery.”
Jasper called Annie.
Annie informed William.
William’s eyes were red then, and he dropped his brush and ran outside.
Conor caught up with him, “I’ll take you to the hospital.” Conor couldn’t draw, and he was definitely out of this round. His company had a lot of work waiting for him, and there was no way he could stay in there for the full 45 days. He came over to stay for a few days, just to help support them.
It was that he never thought that something would happen to the Sharp family and that William would be eliminated.
In this way, there were only two people left at Angle Jewellery: Helena and Lottie.
Helena seemed to understand something: Auntie was sick. William’s mother was sick. William and Evelyn were both surnamed Sharp. At first it was thought to be a coincidence, but now that they were sick at the same time, it might not be a coincidence.
She asked Annie, “William’s cousin is Jasper?”
Annie nodded: “Mr. Jasper’s mother is William’s aunt. William is very afraid of Mr. Jasper and doesn’t let them advertise that Mr. Jasper is his cousin, so many people outside the circle don’t know about this relationship between them.”
Helena held her forehead.
Jasper was really good at hiding things, and she was still curious: who is William’s cousin!
She knew it was not the right time to pursue the matter, but she messaged him anyway: [What else are you hiding from me?]
Jasper said: [My mother had three children, and I was the second son. I have a big brother and a younger sister, Lottie].
