Chapter 1143 Boyfriend
These words seemed to wake up the man who was lost in thought. Bert withdrew his gaze and looked at the man on top of him. His pale face was flushed, not at all like his usual appearance.
"Suicide?" The corners of Bert's lips twitched, but he couldn't smile at all. It was just that his eyes finally became focused. "I never cared, but now, she gave me my life. Don't worry. I cherish it more than anyone else."
Hearing this, Huston was completely relieved. He turned over and patted the dirt off his hands. When he thought of how he couldn't find Bert just now and how he had been told by the nurse at the front desk that Bert had gone to the top floor, he still felt a lingering fear.
Although he couldn't say he had any fondness for Bert, after all, it was he who took in Evelyn, allowing Lucas to come into this world smoothly. This time, Alivia was also in danger for the sake of his child. He still felt a bit guilty in his heart and didn't want anyone to get hurt.
He was just somewhat surprised that Bert developed real feelings for that seemingly gentle and weak girl. They seemed to be from completely different worlds, but who could predict matters of the heart? When you meet someone, there's no escaping it.
After the two of them calmed down, Huston followed behind Bert, afraid that something would happen to him again. They returned to the door of the operating room, and the overhead lights went out just in time.
Bert straightened his body nervously and watched the doctor walk over. "Who's Alivia's family?"Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Bert answered without hesitation, "Me."
"Relationship?"
Bert was stunned. After a long pause, he said, "Boyfriend."
The doctor tilted his head and glanced at him. "I t must be a direct relative. However, come with me for a moment, and I will give you a general overview of the situation."
"I want to see her first."
"Wait a minute. The anesthesia hasn't worn off yet." After saying that, the doctor went straight to the office. Bert stared deeply at the door of the ward, turned around, and followed him.
As soon as he entered the office, the surroundings immediately fell silent. The attending doctor was a highly skilled specialist in the hospital. As soon as they sat down, he began listing the series of results from earlier for him to see.
"The patient's current condition is not very optimistic. I understand the family's emotions, and I hope you can stay calm and listen to me until the end," the doctor said. His first words were a reminder to Bert. The man's overwhelming aura made him seem like a devil from hell with a dark and gloomy expression on his face.
The doctor was nearly fifty years old, and it was the first time he had been frightened by a young man's aura.
Bert nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"The patient has multiple fractures and external injuries. The third rib on the left side is fractured, affecting the lungs, which may lead to inflammation in the later stages. The right wrist has a TFCC injury, and the need for surgery depends on the recovery process. The most severe injury occurred when she fell off the cliff. The back of her head received a severe impact, resulting in a concussion with a posterior skull fracture and brain swelling. The cerebral cortex is severely damaged, and the patient is currently in a deep coma. She may lose consciousness and become unresponsive. If the subcortical central nervous system can maintain autonomous breathing and heart function, it's what we commonly refer to as a 'vegetative state."" The doctor briefly conveyed all the results they had obtained to him. It was essential for the patient and the family to be informed. Falling from such a high cliff, even if she didn't die, her life would be severely impacted. Miss. Graves's most critical injury was at the back of her head. The impact of a heavy object falling from that height, considering the weight of the human body, surviving was already a fortunate escape.
