Chapter 334 : The Pit
No matter how much she shouted and what she said, Bruce in the bed remained unconscious.
Lindsey had been in the ICU for more than ten hours and had to leave temporarily.
Back in the ward, she had little appetite, but under Charlotte’s supervision, she managed to eat two bowls of porridge.
Old Mr. Grant seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight.
Usually a man who walks with a tiger’s breeze, now he has to stop after two steps to catch his breath, so he can see how much Bruce’s injury has hit him.
Lindsey saw this scene, feel more difficult.
However, they are no use how anxious, Bruce in addition to vital signs stable, there is no sign to wake up.
Lindsey ate and went back to the ICU to stay with Bruce without any clothes.
The day passed quickly, and the time was approaching the 48 hours that the specialist had said he would take, and the whole Grant family was worried, all gathered in the waiting area outside the ICU room, waiting.
Lindsey was alone in the room, holding Bruce’s cold hand and talking constantly.
The time ticked by, the therapist and monitor kept emitting a “drip” sound, which sounded particularly ominous to the ears.
In the last hour, Lindsey, who was already on the verge of collapse, took out the silver needle again, betting his life to administer the needle.
The nurses on the side were afraid to squeal and looked at her with extra sympathy.
The silver needle stuck between Bruce’s eyebrows soon dripped black blood, and Lindsey didn’t dare to be the least bit lax and stuck two more needles into him.
When the needles were started, it was only ten minutes before 48 hours.
Lindsey sat down tiredly and scolded with hatred, “If you don’t wake up again, I will take your son, marry another man, and let them follow someone else’s surname!”
I don’t know if Lindsey’s scolding worked, or Bruce finally survived the fatal ordeal, his eyes moved a few times, followed by his mouth opening.
Lindsey woke up and immediately rang the help bell and brought gauze to cover his eyes.
The chief surgeon and attending doctor soon entered the room, and Bruce, who had been unconscious for a long time, made his first hoarse sound at that moment: “Well …”
“Bruce, it’s me.” Lindsey excitedly grabbed his hand, tears like rain. “It’s Lindsey.”
Bruce opened his eyes tiredly, his eyes hollow and looked around, his voice dry and hoarse: “So tired …”
Can not be tired … after being wounded by a stray bullet, the embassy immediately arranged a special plane to pick them up back home, a lie is several days.
After saying these words, Bruce closed his eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.
“There is no fear if you can wake up, we will arrange doctors and nurses to focus on care during this period.” The chief surgeon was relieved, thinking that he was finally awake, otherwise he would not be able to explain to Old Mr. Grant.
Lindsey saw that Bruce was sleeping, and her worry dissipated as she exited the ICU.
“Is Bruce awake yet?” Charlotte saw her come out and was the first to rush over and hold her up: “It’s been hard for you.”
Lindsey looked at her with a bitter smile, her eyes fell on Old Mr. Grant and spoke slowly, “He’s awake, but that doesn’t mean he’s not in any danger.”
Old Mr. Grant nodded gently and gestured for Charlotte to help her return to her room to rest.
A few moments later, the doctor came out of the ICU and asked Old Mr. Grant to go to the conference room.
It was good that the patient was awake after the surgery, but the rest of the treatment was even more critical.
Old Mr. Grant understood the importance of the patient and gave him a few instructions, but he remained in the hospital to keep watch.
Bruce slept for another day before waking up again.
Everything is stable, but because of the serious brain injury, Bruce temporarily lost all memory after the accident.
In other words, he temporarily forgot about Lindsey and the fact that he was married.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Lindsey accepted this fact calmly, but Bruce’s reaction, obviously did not follow the script she expected. For example, at this moment, she is clearly wearing a nurse’s uniform, but still he was thrown out of the ward.
The reason was simple and brutal. “I don’t want a nurse who is too pretty.”
Lindsey looked at the sky speechless, blame me!
A week later, he was transferred from the ICU to the high tech ward, Old Mr. Grant repeatedly stressed that Lindsey is the daughter-in-law of The Grant family, but Bruce did not accept it at all. “I will get married, you don’t have to use this method to make me accept a stranger.”
By the way, he has another reason, can not accept the fact that happy father!
Lindsey even strong psychological quality, can not bear him this look, but can not let go of it.
The pitfall.
This morning, and he was injured at the same time two other people came to visit, he actually with a look at the stupid X eyes, staring at people for half a day, and finally a wave of the hand, dismissed.
Lindsey happened to carry breakfast in, saw him like this, could not help nagging. “People came to see you just to thank you, you do not have to.”
“Thank me for what?” Bruce lifted his chin and looked at her with the same look. “And don’t think I’ll marry you just because they all support you, dream on.”
“Don’t worry, you marry or don’t marry, I’m still The Grant family.” Lindsey sulked and threw the marriage license over with a snap, her voice suddenly turning cold. “Look at it for yourself.”
Bruce picked it up and glanced at it, his thin lips pulled out a wicked curve, snorting disdainfully. “What the hell is this, don’t think that using props, I believe what you say.”
Lindsey was completely defeated and so angry that she brushed her sleeves off on the spot.
Coming out of the ward, she sulked in the corridor for a while and finally returned to the ward in a very spineless manner.
This time, however, she put herself in the right frame of mind; as long as he was well and recovered, nothing else mattered. And this situation is only temporary, recuperate for a few days, again apply needles to export the bruises will be fine.
Putting the breakfast on the counter, Lindsey left the room without hesitation, leaving Bruce to the care of the nurses.
Old Mr. Grant has been in the hospital every day for the past few days, and the current situation really makes it difficult for him.
He called Lindsey to sit down, asked about the treatment, and told her to go home and rest, not to worry too much.
“The doctor also said that the wound is recovering better, I have nothing to worry about.” Lindsey smiled bitterly. “I hope he can regain his memory soon after he is discharged from the hospital, or else the baby will be born and he won’t know he became a father.”
Old Mr. Grant sighed and once again urged her to go back to rest.
Lindsey didn’t want to stay and be angry, so she gave a few instructions and left the ward. When she got downstairs, she ran into Cary and Carl, who had come to visit, and was called by Cary.
“What is it?” Noticing that Cary’s face did not look good, Lindsey subconsciously said, “Is there a problem with Mr. Grayson’s cooperation.”
Cary shook his head and spoke hesitantly, “The Harris family boy is coming to B City and will probably arrive tonight, Old Mr. Grant agreed to it.”
Burton is coming … Lindsey pondered for a second and smiled abruptly. “Later up, you find a chance to tell Bruce that the car accident was Burton’s doing back then, and by the way, show him the evidence.”
Cary nodded knowingly, hooked his lips in a deep smile, and excused himself to go upstairs.
Lindsey returned to the car, yawned tiredly, and ordered the driver to take her back to the old house.
Within ten minutes of entering the door, Warren, who had just learned the news, called to reassure her not to think too much.
Lindsey took his reassurance in stride and asked him if he had any plans to return to Cloud Mountain.
“No, I’m not going back, my leg is still injured, and I’m not going back and forth, so I’m going back to bother my big brother and brother.” Warren’s tone showed a trace of loss. “Let’s wait for the Qingming Festival.”
Lindsey said she was relieved and talked about other things for a while, then hung up and went to take a nap.
Burton really came back in the afternoon, but he was smart enough not to go directly to the hospital to visit Bruce, but first went to Fragrant Garden.
He came back, so naturally Kaley and Edwin had to come back, after all, such a good opportunity, can not be wasted.
Lindsey was not disgusted by the visit of the three of them, but it was not welcome.
And Hailie’s arrival really had the urge to make Lindsey want to hit someone.
The year of Bruce’s accident, Hailie had just started her doctoral program and neither of them had seen each other. Lindsey had nothing to worry about, but Delisa was Bruce’s sister.
As she watched them laughing and joking in the hospital room, Lindsey’s heart was burning with anger.
Anyone who looks at her husband, and other women talking happily, but only to their own cold words, how also can not up ah.
Fortunately, Charlotte was always on Lindsey’s side, and sensing that she was not in the right mood, she immediately entered the hospital room and politely sent Hailie and Delisa away.
After dinner, the Kaley family finally showed up in the hospital room.
As Lindsey had expected, Bruce hated Burton more than a little bit, and smashed the phone in his hand just after meeting him. “Get out!”
Kaley couldn’t face it and said something to Bruce, but also scolded Burton and kicked him out of the room.
Old Mr. Grant always has little emotion, until Bruce again angry, only then not salty to speak: “see also seen, nothing to go back first.”
Lindsey didn’t know what Kaley thought, but at least it was clear that she was reluctant and had turned that reluctance into a subtle look of concern, asking to stay in the hospital.
The old man, in the end, does not want his children and grandchildren to be torn apart.
Although Old Mr. Grant has a straightforward temper, the idea of family reunion and harmony is always deep-rooted.
Besides, New Year’s Eve is coming up soon.
It is a bit unkind to kick out the Kaley family at this time.
Bruce has memory loss and doesn’t know Lindsey, which is really good for her.
Hailie has been pestering Bruce for so long with no progress, this is the perfect opportunity to keep Old Mr. Grant and get Lindsey out of The Grant family for good.
As for the heir, who is born is not born, and who can prove that Lindsey’s belly, it must be Bruce’s seed.
He doesn’t even admit it himself.
After staying in the hospital until New Year’s Eve, Bruce was discharged from the hospital and returned to his home to continue to recuperate.
Old Mr. Grant also quietly moved to the old house to live, along with the Kaley family.
The original cold and empty courtyard gradually became lively.
Lindsey’s mood is irritable, and before the afternoon meal, Bruce, who doesn’t know what kind of madness, calls Cary and Carl and beats Burton severely.
In front of the living room door in the main courtyard, Burton was beaten like a dead dog and could not get up for half a day.
This is really like stirring up a hornet’s nest, Kaley’s cries can be heard from several yards away.
