Chapter 238
After Derek came back, the people in the hospital were respectful to Christina.
He transferred Christina to the exclusive VIP ward on the 12th floor and arranged more senior medical staff.
Because Christina had undergone a car accident as well as a cesarean, she needed well relax this month.She must receive good care, or she would fall ill easily in the future.
"Accompany her."
When Derek left the hospital, he only left Crystal two words.
Crystal saw Derek leave in hurry and did not stop him.
It seemed that Derek had something urgent to do.
The next few days, Crystal and Betty took turns taking care of Christina.
Christina's previous attending physician had said that Christina did not so much reject Crystal, so Crystal was more suitable to stay and take care of Christina.
So most of the time, it was Crystal that stayed in the hospital to take care of Christina.
And Betty cooked soup and food at home and then brought them to the hospital.
"Take good care of her for me.I'm kind of responsible for this accident."
Betty brought the food over.She just stood at the door and took a look at Christina from afar.She didn't go in, just requested Crystal to tend Christina and didn't explain much.
Christina nodded at Betty and took the thermal box.She was sensible and did not ask further.
The mistake had already happened.
The most important thing now was to deal with the problem and find a way to help Christina cheer up.
But it was really difficult.
Christina had been unwilling to eat.She just relied on nutrition injection to sustain life.She had no strength and looked haggard and weak.
And, she had always had nightmares and woke up in a panic.
Even when she woke up, she just looked at the ceiling blankly and did not speak.
Falling asleep or waking up was both a kind of torture for her.
"Crystal, I really heard children crying.They were scared, crying loudly, heartbreaking..."
Fortunately, Christina was willing to talk to Crystal occasionally.
Christina kept talking about the baby.She kept saying that she had heard the baby crying.
Crystal carefully responded to Christina, for fear of saying any word to agitate Christina.
As for the baby crying Christina had mentioned, Crystal did not know.
Crystal guessed it was just an illusion in Christina's nightmare.
Apart from the children, she mentioned 'Patrick' the most.
Christina had been in the hospital for ten days.
But as Betty had said, the people of the Hopkins family totally ignored Christina and did not even send anyone to see Christina, which really made Crystal and Betty disappointed.
No matter what the Hopkins family's attitude was, Crystal believed that Patrick would not disregard Christina.
Crystal had some communications with Patrick before.She knew that he loved Christina so much that he will definitely not ignore Christina like this.
Crystal poured out half a bowl of porridge from the thermal box to cool it down, then took a spoon with the bowl and walked to the bed.
Today, Christina was kind of cheering up.
Crystal handed the bowl forward and said in a consultative tone, "Christina, drink this half bowl of porridge.I'll contact Patrick for you immediately"
When Christina on the hospital bed heard the name Patrick, she did have some reaction.
"You lost your previous phone.So I went to get you a replacement phone card.It's finally done today"
As Crystal spoke, she inserted the new phone card into the new phone.And the phone started to read the card.
Soon, the phone finished reading much information stored on the card.
Crystal saw a phone number nicknamed "Cold Pag" and guessed that this must be Patrick's private phone number.
"I'll help you roll up the bed.You can sit up and eat the porridge on your own...I'll call Patrick for you now and ask him to come back soon."
Crystal's words were a little attractive, and Christina in the hospital bed began to hesitate if eat or not.
"Christina, as long as Patrick comes back, the problem will definitely be solved.He can find out everything," added Crystal.
Christina trusted Patrick very much.She agreed with what Crystal had said.
After all, Patrick's great power was obvious to all of them.
As long as he came back, everything would be fine.
"Patrick" was like a sedative for Christina that could make her less panicked.
"Crystal, don't worry about me.I'm fine.I'm fine..."
Christina took the bowl hesitantly.It was as if she had converted to the before straightforward and stubborn Miss Dickens.
Christina said in a low voice to Crystal, but actually to herself.
Crystal saw that Christina was a little more energetic after hearing her words, so she quickly dialed Patrick's number.She kept praying in her heart that Patrick could come back soon, and the child could also be found back.
But the reality was cruel.
"Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is power off" sounded over and over again, which was really disappointing.
Crystal seemed to have run out of courage and asked listlessly, "Christina, do you have any other contact information of him?"
Crystal didn't want to call again.
The more she heard the repeated hint tone, the more desperate she became.
Christina put the bowl back on the desk.
Her face was a little paler and she did not speak.
"Maybe he's really busy with something important."
Crystal squeezed out a comforting excuse.
And she quickly scrolled through the address book with her fingers to see who else could contact.
Soon she found a familiar name, Charles Shepherd.
This man seemed to be a friend of Christina.
Crystal seemed to find some hope and kept saying in her heart, "Answer the phone, answer the phone..."
The call got through! Crystal was very excited. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
But before she could speak, the person on the other end of the phone scold, "Christina, why are you calling me?"
"You find out that you couldn't find Patrick? Why are you still looking for him? Let me tell you, even if Patrick's operation failed and he died, he doesn't need any of your concern."
"Christina, are you heartless? I told you to come to the airport and you disdained it.Paul and the others also said that you insisted on leaving when he was sick.You could betray him so easily for your aunt.Was it because his love was so easy to get and so cheap that you didn't cherish him at all? You didn't even feel sorry for him! In that case, how shameless you are looking for him! Do you really love
him? Do you know what love is? You have no right to look for him! Christina, you are a jinx.Whoever meets you, he will fall on evil days!"
Crystal had no chance to speak.
Charles seemed to have been provoked by something and scolded constantly.
Then, with a beep, the call hung up.
Christina's face was even paler, almost bloodless.
Charles's angry voice was so loud that Christina must have heard it clearly.
Crystal looked at Christina worriedly.
Christina did not overreact.
She just leaned back against the rolled-up bed, very quiet.
"Christina..."
Crystal called out carefully, feeling that Christina couldn't be so quiet.
As Crystal turned around, she glanced at the electronic device on the left side of the bed, indicating that Christina's heartbeat was suddenly weak.
Crystal was about to run out of the ward in fear.
All the doctors had said that Christina couldn't be stimulated anymore.
"Crystal, my head hurts."
Christina was dressed in a white hospital gown and sat huddled up against the bed.
She held her head in both hands and her fingers were pinching her forehead.She was desperately tugging at her long hair.
Her voice was trembling.
"My head hurts..."
"I killed them.I killed Patrick.It's all because of me.I deserve all sufferings..."
