When Anastasia saw his refusal to accept the water bottle, she set the bottle aside and opened the one
in her hand before she took a few sips and handed it to him.
Only then did Elliot take it before he took a few sips of the water she had drunk.
Once Alex took a seat beside Erica, she could not help but hint, “I’m cold, Alex.”
As soon as he heard that, he hurriedly took off his suit and gave it to her. Erica was wearing Alex’s suit,
but she did not receive the feeling she was looking for. Despite being a man, Alex was incomparable to
Elliot.
Half an hour later, three men in suits appeared in the corridor while looking dapper with a scholarly
aura. They went straight to Elliot’s side and greeted him respectfully, “Hello, Young Master Elliot.”
Elliot nodded in response. “All of you are here,”
Anastasia was delighted to see Benedict among them. It seemed that these three were the doctors
from Presgrave Hospital.
“We’ll check on the patient’s condition first, then we’ll come back to you to discuss the details! After
saying that, Benedict and the other two went to the doctor’s office together.
Naomi seemed to have realized something and immediately got up to ask, “Who are these people and
what are they going to do to my husband?”
When Anastasia saw her exaggerated reaction, she uttered lightly, “Just Elliot’s friends.”
Naomi thought they did not look like his friends but doctors instead. She then exchanged glances with
Erica and Alex before sitting down.
“Naomi, there’s a lounge over there. Do you want to go in and take a rest? It’s quite cold here,” Alex
suggested..
With that, all three of them went over to the lounge.
As soon they entered, Naomi hurriedly looked at Alex and inquired, “The three people just now should
be doctors sent by Elliot. Do you think they’ll be able to cure Francis?”
“Let’s not exaggerate our reactions for now. Elliot is here, so we shouldn’t raise his suspicion.’ Alex
reminded her that Elliot was not an ordinary person.
As a result, Naomi could only hold back her temper and reply, ‘We’ll just have to risk it.’
In the corridor outside, Anastasia noticed that Elliot was wearing only a shirt and a vest. She then
asked out of concern. “Are you cold? Do you want to take a nap int the car?”
“I’m fine,” Elliot reassured her and held her hand.
Anastasia felt the warmth of his palm, but she still returned the suit to him as she felt bad. She then
snuggled into his embrace and the two of them shared his
suit to keep warm together.
He hugged her tightly while his thin lips
kissed her hair since he felt sorry for her.
“Don’t worry. The guys who just came are the leading cardiologists and neurologists in our hospital.”
As soon as she heard that, she saw a glimmer of hope and instantly felt relieved. At this moment, she
realized how honored and lucky she was to have known Elliot.
After a while, Benedict came over. “Elliot, Miss Tillman, please come with me.”
Elliot reached out to hold Anastasia’s
hand as they followed Benedict.
In the conference room of the hospital, the three experts and the two doctors who revived Anastasia’s
father earlier were present. Through their gaze, one could tell that they were looking at the three
experts respectfully.
Following that, one of the doctors gave a detailed explanation of Francis’ condition.
“Miss Tillman, we’ve gone through your father’s analysis. It was unfortunate that he was admitted too
late to the hospital. If he could have arrived ten minutes earlier, the situation would have been
completely different.”
“Is it possible for my dad to wake up?” Anastasia asked nervously.
“Judging from his current situation, he is unlikely to wake up, but it’s not totally impossible. Nothing is
absolute, but your father’s heart failure has caused various complications, especially his brain which is
most affected. Therefore, the possibility of him being in a vegetative state is very high.”
The tears that Anastasia had been resisting suddenly rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. As she
heard their statement with closed eyes, she felt immense pain and despair.
Elliot took her hand and uttered in a deep voice, “Please think of some other ways you can save him.”
