Chapter 526
Nicole fell silent for a moment. She didn’t know how to answer Wyatt’s question.
Could she tell him that she had to ask Dora for help when her mother was sick because she couldn’t turn to him when he was in a coma?
Should she let him know that Dora, who seemed to be a perfect mother to him, had forced her to break up with him?
Nicole didn’t want to tell Wyatt about it. But when she saw the pleading look in his eyes, she felt like a knife pierced through her heart.
Should she tell him? He deserved to know the truth, right?
She was still hesitating when the medical staff came to re-examine the semi-conscious Wyatt and quickly put a breathing mask on him.
His condition seemed to be getting worse.
“Miss, continue the conversation! You have to keep the patient awake and try your best to arouse his desire to survive. After all, the damage to his brain may be serious.”
“What? How can that be?”
Nicole panicked at once. The fear of losing him soon enveloped her. She held Wyatt’s hand tightly and said solemnly, “Wyatt, I promise, if you can make it through this time, I will tell you the truth.”
Wyatt was in a daze, but he clearly heard what she had said. He struggled to open his mouth and uttered, “Okay.”
As soon as the ambulance arrived at the hospital, the medical staff took the stretcher and pushed Wyatt into the emergency room.
Nicole slowly let go of his hand.
She anxiously waited at the door of the emergency room, looking at the lights inside. Everything seemed to have returned to five years ago.
With tears in her eyes, she kept praying in her heart. She couldn’t lose him again.
Nicole couldn’t stop her tears from falling. Her face looked so pale, and her shoulders were trembling.
She didn’t know how long she had cried. All of a sudden, she felt a pair of big hands on her shoulders.
“Nicole, are you okay? Why are you here?”
When Nicole turned around, she saw Esteban, sweating profusely and looking at her worriedly.
At this moment, the repressed pain overwhelmed her, and she couldn’t help crying out loud.
Esteban felt sorry for her and hurriedly comforted her, “Nicole, don’t cry. It’s okay. I’ll accompany you.”
“Esteban, I’m so scared. I’m really scared…”
While Nicole cried, Esteban stayed and kept her company.
Time passed by slowly. After a long time of waiting, the doctor finally came out and Wyatt was wheeled into a ward.
Nicole immediately approached the doctor and asked, “Doctor, how is he?”
The doctor took off his mask and smiled, “Don’t worry, he’s fine now. You can go in and see him.”
“Thank you, doctor.”
Nicole breathed a sigh of relief. She wiped her tears and was about to walk into the ward.
However, a woman suddenly rushed over. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Before Nicole could react, the woman’s palm landed on her face.
“You are such a disaster!” the woman cursed.
Nicole was caught off guard. The slap was so hard that she tilted her head and a red mark of the woman’s hand appeared on her face.
Everything happened so fast that even Esteban was not able to react to stop the woman.
The woman continued, “How dare you approach my son again!”
The woman who arrived was Dora, Wyatt’s mother. Her eyes were red, and her face looked ferocious. She even raised her hand again, intending to give Nicole another slap.
But this time, she was intercepted by Esteban. He grabbed her hand and pushed her away.
“Ma’am, this is a hospital. Please pay attention to your behavior. How could you slap her?”
Dora staggered back, and her hatred for Nicole grew even deeper.
“Nicole, you are such a disaster. Get out of here now. Every time my son is with you, he is always in danger. Don’t forget the promise you made to me five years ago.”
It was only then that Nicole came to her senses. She bit her lower lip and said, “Mrs. Todd, I don’t forget my promise. But Wyatt is still lying in the hospital bed now. Please let me see him even for a
short time. I will leave right after.”
The situation now was the same after the car accident Wyatt had gone through five years ago. At that time, she also begged Dora to allow her to see Wyatt.
At this moment, Nicole couldn’t pretend to be strong anymore. Her invincible appearance totally disappeared.
Wyatt was the reason why she started over, and he was also her Achilles’ heel.
