"It means literally. What else can it mean? Can you hurry? Nicole has fainted for a long time."
Tim was not in the mood to chat with Gabrielle.
Gabrielle glanced at him and then quickly unbuttoned Nicole's coat.
The blood had already seeped through her clothes.
"You go out. I'll undress Nicole and take out the bullet."
Just as Gabrielle finished speaking, Tim became a little anxious.
"Why do I have to go out? I won't look where I shouldn't. Besides, she's so weak. She will die if you
take the bullet out in this way!"
"I know whether she will die. I am a doctor, so I know better than you how to save her. Don't you know
about Nicole's physical condition? She's weak and now she's bleeding so much. If I don't take the bullet
out, the wound will become inflamed and her previous illness will reappear."
Gabrielle rolled her eyes at Tim and hurriedly got up to take the medical kit.
Tim was speechless, and he felt even guiltier.
If he could protect Nicole, Nicole wouldn't be like this.
He sighed, turned around, and left the room, but he stopped at the door.
"Gabrielle, please, you must cure her. She has a tough life all the way down."
"I know."
Gabrielle did not look up, so she didn't notice the guilt and worry in Tim's eyes.
After giving Nicole some anesthetic, Gabrielle started to work.
Nicole was in a coma, but her brain didn't stop working.
Why did Finn want to kill her?
He seemed not to be joking. What exactly happened?
Where was Samuel?
Nicole suffered from violent mood swings, so Gabrielle had less control over the operation. She was
quite cautious the entire time. She wanted to wake Nicole up, but Nicole didn't have any awareness of
the outside world. She could only watch her struggling in pain.
"Nicole, you'd better let that go. Stay calm when being treated. Do you hear me?"
Although Gabrielle saw little hope, she still whispered a few words in Nicole's ear.
Nicole couldn't hear it, nor could she feel she had lost a lot of blood. She didn't even feel weak.
As time passed, Gabrielle's face became paler and paler.
Nicole bled out so fast that her body couldn't function correctly. Now, Nicole had to rest. But Nicole
wouldn't.
Now, the Green family was in such a mess, and Samuel was missing, so Nicole wouldn't rest.
Gabrielle sighed and continued to try her best to treat Nicole.
After the operation, Gabrielle was a little tired, and it was a little dark.
When she opened the door, Tim and Joseph were both there, looking at her worriedly.
"Where's Zoe?"
Gabrielle noticed Zoe was not there.
"Zoe has already fallen asleep after eating. Auntie Gabrielle, don't worry. How's my mommy?" Joseph
said hurriedly.
Although Tim did not ask, he also looked at Gabrielle anxiously.
Gabrielle sighed, "Your mother is fine, but she has lost too much blood. She is too tired, but she has
fallen asleep. You will see her tomorrow morning. Go rest, or your mother will worry about you."
She said as she touched Joseph's head gently.
Joseph was a little doubtful, so he asked in a low voice, "Can I have a look at my mom?"
"Sure, but be gentle. She needs peace. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I see. Thank you, Auntie Gabrielle."
Joseph hurried into the room.
Tim wanted to follow Joseph into the room, but Gabrielle stopped him.
"You can't go in."
"Why can't I? Gabrielle, what do you mean?"
Tim was already very guilty about Nicole, so when Gabrielle stopped him, he got furious.
Gabrielle did not say anything but dragged Tim to the balcony so that the children couldn't hear them.
Noticing that she was so cautious and serious, Tim was immediately nervous.
"What's wrong? Is Nicole not well?"
"I'm losing control."
Tim's face turned pale.
"Aren't you very skillful? Will it work if you join forces with Blair?"
"I've already said Nicole should have a good rest. However, after what she has been through, she
doesn't get enough rest and even suffers from intense mood swings. What's worse, she has gunshot
wounds. I have tried my best to control her illness, but I am not sure whether she can hold on. You
know, Nicole has been worried about Samuel. However, there are still no signs of Samuel, and we
don't even know whether he is still alive. Nicole can't calm down to receive treatment and take a rest.
Besides, the Green family is in such a mess. There must be someone in charge. Nicole can't do it
unless you want her to die. "
Hearing Gabrielle's words, Tim said hurriedly, "I can help her. Isn't it because of Vincent? I'll arrest him
and beat him up."
"Don't be a baby. It's inappropriate for you to interfere in the affairs of the Green family. Besides, neither
you nor I, nor Blair knows the inside story. If you really care about Nicole, you should find out where
Samuel is."
When Tim heard that, his face took on a ghastly expression.
"Why do you think I have to look for Samuel? You know, he's my rival. I wish he won't come back. I can
take good care of the children and Nicole."
"That's different. Tim, I know how you feel about Nicole, and I believe you are serious, but you're too
late. But Nicole has given her heart to Samuel, so you can't have a place in her heart."
"I won't believe it!"
Tim hated to hear that the most, but Gabrielle said it to his face. Tim was so angry that he wanted to
punch her, but he didn't since she was treating Nicole.
Gabrielle knew Tim was angry. Noticing that he was holding back his anger for Nicole, she continued,
"Believe it or not, that is the truth. You don't want Nicole to have any regrets at the end of her life, do
you?"
"What nonsense! Nicole, she will be fine. Don't jinx her, okay?"
Tim was very sensitive. When he heard that Nicole might die, he was very flustered.
He felt the same way when he found out that his mother had gone crazy.
Noticing Tim's pale face, Gabrielle said slowly, "I'm not exaggerating. If no one comes back to settle the
Green family's affairs, Nicole can hold no longer. Blood is very important for women, but she only has a
few grams of blood left. Even after blood transfusions, she has to rest. She is a mortal, and not a god.
She can't be a superwoman even if she gets enough blood. So, Tim, if you really like Nicole, if you
really want to do something for her, please go find Samuel. After all, you are the best among these
people. And Jason is disabled, and it's not appropriate for the other subordinates to do it, you know."
Tim fell silent.
Looking at Nicole's room, he suddenly wanted to smoke.
"Do you mind if I smoke?"
He asked Gabrielle politely.
Gabrielle couldn't stand the smell of the smoke, but to help Tim alleviate anxiety, she nodded.
Tim lit a cigarette, but even the nicotine couldn't help him think clearly.
He couldn't watch Nicole die, but he didn't know whether he should go and find Samuel.
Now was the best time to win Nicole's heart. Nicole needed company now.
But at the thought of the sad look in Nicole's eyes, Tim felt annoyed and irritated.
Gabrielle didn't force him, but said indifferently, "Nicole suffers from uterine acratia. I gave her an
injection to improve it, it seems less effective. If she has to undergo surgery, neither you, nor I, and
even Jason can't sign the informed consent. Zoe and Lucas are still young, and Vincent is like this.
Laurel can't even take care of herself. Tell me, besides Samuel, who else does Nicole live on for?"
"Stop talking."
Tim interrupted Gabrielle, feeling unable to decide.
He put his cigarette out. There was a burning sensation on his fingers but he hardly felt the pain.
He felt his stomach knot with apprehension.
He wondered if it was fate that he and Nicole couldn't be together.
When he knew Samuel was missing, Tim secretly rejoiced. He thought that God gave him this chance,
but he did not expect to be faced with such a difficult choice.
Noticing his hesitation, Gabrielle continued, "As a doctor, I have to say that everything depended on
her state of mind. Once she is in a good mood, I can control her condition and she may be out of
danger soon. This is not bunkum. It is valid."
"Stop talking."
Tim frowned.
He was reluctant.
He didn't want to give up this opportunity. Perhaps this was the only chance in his life to win Nicole's
heart.
But he was even more reluctant to see Nicole suffer!
He felt sad every time Nicole was depressed and anxious because she couldn't reach Samuel. He
didn't want this to make her worse.
No one knew Nicole's condition better than he. She had reached the end of her energy, and the
gunshot made her get worse.
Tim struggled within himself.
He remembered Nicole saved him, encouraged him when he was young, and treated him well these
past few days. Tim's heart began to ache.
After hooking up with so many women, Tim thought he wouldn't fall in love with any woman. Almost all
the people in the Seapolis City thought of him as a playboy but he didn't care. However, he didn't
expect his first crush to end up like this.
His eyes were somewhat wet and red, so he quickly turned to look at the cloudy sky. His moods grew
gloomier and gloomier.
