The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 261 Regain Consciousness

"Doctor, how did it go?" Susan did not dare to ask him about that. So Julian helped her ask the doctor.

Susan was shocked all of a sudden.

She fixed her eyes on the doctor's lips. She was so eager for the answer she wanted, but she was afraid that she might hear another answer instead.

She was as pale as a sheet because of her great anxiety.

Luckily, Dr. Hack was not used to beating around the bush. He said directly, "The surgery was quite successful. Mr. Shelby's vital signs are stable for the time being. But we need to closely observe him for three more days. After that critical period, we can truly rest assured.”

When Susan heard that the surgery was successful, she was finally relieved involuntarily.

She could not help but become teary again.

'We did it! The surgery is successful at last.’

She and her brother won the battle with a 70% success rate.

In the future, her brother did not have to suffer from heart disease again.

Susan also listened to the doctor attentively regarding the fact that they needed to closely monitor his body condition.

The danger was not high for the following three days, but they still needed to be extremely careful.

"Dr. Hack, we still need you to stay here for the following three days," said Julian.

Dr. Hack smiled. "Certainly. But Mr. Shelby needs some good rest for about a month after the surgery. It’s better if you hire a special nurse to take care of her." i

"Alright, no problem. I'll go and look for one immediately." Julian took up his suggestion.

Dr. Hack nodded. "What we need to do now is wait for him to wake up. The effects of the anesthesia will last for more than three hours. When the effects subside, he'll certainly regain his consciousness. Just go and take a rest."

Dr. Hack appeared rather exhausted.

Susan looked at him and said immediately, "Thank you, Dr. Hack. Please go and take a rest."

Dr. Hack worked for almost seven hours just to perform that surgery. He focused his entire attention both mentally and physically. Now he was greatly exhausted, and he could barely hold himself up.

Dr. Hack nodded. He did not reject her suggestion. He then rubbed his temple and went to take a rest.

The nurse moved Jacob to the single VIP ward.

"Susie, your brother will only wake up after three hours. Go and take a rest first. Let Seth and me guard him here," said Julian.

Susan was highly agitated all this while. Now, she became slightly sleepy after she became relaxed.

But Susan still shook her head. "I'm fine. I hope I'm the first one he sees the moment he wakes up."

Susan looked at Jacob in his sleep gently. Then, she held one of his hands carefully.

'Brother, please wake up as soon as possible.

'Do you know how worried I am for you?'

When Jacob was in a critical situation, Julian was not jealous of him. Now that Jacob was saved at last, Susan still appeared quite anxious about him.

Julian became slightly jealous and he muttered, "If I'm sick, will you be so anxious about me too?"

Julian thought that he had used a rather soft voice, but Susan heard him nevertheless. She could not help but become slightly annoyed. She threw a glance at Julian. "How could you be jealous of him? Don't talk nonsense here! It's bad luck!"

Susan was scared to death when they performed the surgery on him. If anything happened to Julian, she felt that she might not be able to survive.

'Nonsense?' Julian raised his eyebrows.

"Why are you standing here doing nothing?” Susan was anxious. "If you said something unlucky, you must take back what you said. Do as I did."

Susan faced the wall and said solemnly, "It’s bad luck! I took it back!"

After that, she looked toward Julian. "It's your turn now."

Julian coughed twice, but he did nothing. He felt like i t was rather... stupid.

But Susan was still looking at him eagerly. Julian had no choice but to do as she asked, taking back those words.

"That's good." Susan soon became relaxed. "If you claim that you took it back, God will assume that they did not hear that, so you'll be safe."

"How could you believe that?" Julian was amused.

"I didn't believe it in the past. But I feel that it's better i f we have some faiths in life." Susan’s eyes became gentle.

After she was pregnant, she became a gentle person. Indeed, she could abandon everything else. The one wish she had was that she wanted the people she cared about to be safe and healthy.

That would be the biggest blessing.

It was quiet in the ward.

Susan took up Jacob's hand again and fixed her eyes o n his pale face.

Dr. Hack was quite accurate in pinpointing the time when the effects of the anesthesia would subside. After three hours, Jacob's finger started to move slightly.

Susan reacted quickly. She could not help but be delighted and surprised. "Brother, are you awake now?"

Jacob’s eyelashes fluttered. Then, he opened his eyes slowly.

"Brother." Susan stood up immediately.

"Susie." Jacob looked at her, and he could not help but smile gently.

"Brother, are you hungry? We’ve asked the hospital cafeteria to cook some porridge for you. Do you want m e to take some for you?" Susan asked him worriedly.

"I'm still not hungry at the time being.” Susan shook her head, and her voice was rather hoarse. 2

"Then just wait for a little while," said Susan immediately.

After he regained his consciousness, he wanted to sit u p subconsciously.

The minute he started moving, Susan became extremely anxious. "Brother, you just had surgery. The doctor said that you cannot move around. You need to lie in bed." "But..." Jacob looked at her sadly. "My back hurts a little after lying in bed.” "Listen to me!” Susan appeared serious. "It's maybe the effects of the anesthesia. You'll feel better later."

Jacob looked at Susan who seemed quite firm with her decision. He could only listen to her and lay in bed. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Seth was standing beside them, taking the whole scene in. He could not help but burst into laughter. "As expected, only you can make him listen to you. I’m sure you know nothing about this. When he's with me alone, he's so reckless. After all, what I said has no effect on him.”

"That's because you always talk about nonsense most of the time,” said Susan calmly.

Seth was shocked. "Do I talk about nonsense all the time? Please be reasonable here. I'm quite the gentleman who always speaks fluently and sensibly. There's not a single person who listens to me that claims that I..."

Jacob had just regained his consciousness. Seth was i n the mood to blabber again.

Jacob listened to him for a while. He could not help but look at him in contempt. "Shut up!"

"Shut up! You asked me to shut up again.” Seth became angrier. "How ungrateful you are! Did you forget who carried you to the hospital from the neighborhood just now?”
