As time passed, little by little, Kirk saw Caroline staring blankly at the doors to the operation theatre.
After a brief pause, he grabbed Caroline’s cold hand and kissed the back of her palm. “I’ll get you some food. Just stay here and call me if anything happens.”
Caroline nodded with red eyes. After Kirk left, she felt the walls closing all around her. She felt a chill run down her body, as if she was stranded in a blizzard with nothing to protect her.
The memory of Jude falling down before her crossed her mind repeatedly. She couldn’t resist hugging her knees and uncontrollably thinking about the worst.
If anything happened to Jude, Caroline wouldn’t be able to atone for her crimes, even if she died.
Jude was the first person who had ever treated her sincerely. She had long regarded him as her own grandfather.
At this moment, anxious footsteps echoed in the corridor. And soon, they came closer.
“What’s going on? Why did Grandpa end up in here?” Eddy had rushed over to the hospital as soon as he heard the news. Thomas was standing behind him, sweating profusely.
Caroline raised her head with difficulty. She looked up at them with tears in her eyes. Her distress was a heartbreaking sight.
Eddy’s voice involuntarily became softer. He asked, “What happened? Don’t panic. Just explain
everything calmly.”
However, Caroline started crying as soon as she opened her mouth. She stood up from the chair,
staggered, and fell to her knees. “I–I’m sorry. It’s because of me that Grandpa is …”
Eddy’s heart throbbed in pain at the sight. He hurriedly helped Caroline up. “Caroline, calm down.
Just stand up and take your time.”
Caroline had no strength. She had to rely entirely on Eddy to stand up.
Layla, who had just arrived, saw them like this. She immediately became furious.
Hadn’t Caroline said that she wasn’t coming on to Eddy? That was clearly a lie! Caroline was
already in Eddy’s arms.
Layla was so angry that she dug her nails into her palms, forcing some tears in her eyes. “Let me help Caroline up, Ed!” She stepped forward and looked at Eddy sadly.
Eddy frowned unhappily at how Layla was still jealous at this time. “I can’t believe you’re still acting jealous at a time like this! Do you know what Caroline just went through?”
Layla’s expression shifted at his words. No matter how upset Eddy had been about her Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
wrongdoings, he would never speak up for Caroline.
She didn’t care what happened to Caroline. She had come here to see Judę.
At this time, the operation theatre, which had been closed for more than three hours, finally opened.
As soon as Caroline saw the doctor, she rushed over. “Doctor, how is he?”
Layla rolled her eyes. Caroline was such a good actress. She had looked like a mess just now, but now she had the strength to get up.
Eddy glared at Layla, noticing the contempt in her gaze.
Then, Layla calmed down slightly. At the same time, she felt uneasy. She was sure that Caroline had said something to Eddy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be this callous toward her.
