NovelEnglish"Mr. Atlas, the patient is stable for now. She suffered multiple fractured ribs and a ruptured spleen. She's currently unconscious and needs further observation." This news shocked us all. Her injuries sounded severe, like she had been on the brink of death.
"Doctor, is she still in danger?" Oliver muttered.
"The patient will be transferred to the ICU shortly for continued observation. If her vital signs remain stable within the next 24 hours and she regains consciousness, she can be moved back to a regular ward." The doctor turned back to the emergency room.
I involuntarily swayed, muttering, "This is all my fault. She wouldn't have suffered such severe injuries if it weren't for me!" Ivanna comforted me, "Chlo, it's not your fault. Let's go to the ICU and check on her." Two days later, Lauren was finally transferred to a regular ward.
My arm had a fracture, restricting my movement. Atlas had arranged for the best care.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOliver silently stayed by Lauren's side when she was unconscious, a sight that tugged at our heartstrings.
I understood then that Oliver's heart belonged to Lauren. I had no idea how Oliver found out about our accident, and their relationship was something we should not meddle with.
Fortunately, Lauren's condition gradually stabilized.
While things improved on our end, Dylan's investigation wasn't going smoothly.
Although they identified the large dump truck, the road had blind spots. Combined with heavy rain and sparse traffic, they couldn't gather more information about the vehicle.
At this critical juncture, however, I received sbad news.
Matthew was arrested.
His shareholders and project managers reported him for alleged construction quality issues. Melanie even backed it up, claiming everything was orchestrated by Matthew, and she merely followed his orders.
Matthew getting caught signaled the end of Ardora's ongoing projects.
I warned Johnson a few days ago, advising him to caution Matthew about those plotting against him. My words had ctrue.
With the lack of a leader in Ardora, it all fell into Liora's hands. She confidently took over without any objections.
The news of Matthew's arrest spread like wildfire. Johnson, unable to contain his anger, rushed to the hospital to see me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHearing this news leftspeechless. I couldn't comprehend why Melanie would make such a damning accusation against her husband.
Melanie's testimony was extremely foolish and condemned him to a dire fate.
"Chlo, although I've never approved of Matthew's past methods, this is more about emotions than el et reasoning. These are purely false accusations. Ardora was established with Matthew's hard work. We can't just watch this woman take over everything, right?" Johnson was visibly agitated.
I didn't express my opinion, but I didn't anticipate Liora's actions to be so swift and sinister. She was velo probably afraid that Melanie might retract her statement. "Ardora belongs to the Murphy family. If you took over, I'm sure neither I nor the outside world would have any objections. Yet, this woman is openly flaunting it we nee outrageous, right?" Johnson spoke anxiously, "Chloe, you can't stand idly by, can you?" I thought it was tto give her a little push.
I gathered myself and looked at Johnson, instructing him, "Gather the documents and hand them to Adrian. We're going to file a lawsuit." Johnson was taken aback, then excitedly said, "Okay, Chlo! I knew you wouldn't stand by and do nothing!" Johnson left. Lying weakly on the hospital bed, Lauren said, "It starts now. Don't hold back." "Don't worry. Rest. I'll drop by the company," I said.
I turned and left the ward, heading down to the parking lot. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left the emergency hall, I saw Liora strolling into the lobby.
We locked eyes for a moment. Then she gavea rare smile as her eyes darted to my arm.
"Hey, what are you doing here, Ms. Chloe? I haven't seen you for a few days. What happened?" I smiled and calmly replied, "It's nothing." "Aren't you like a little cat?" Liora asked, smiling happily.
I stepped forward and whispered, "We found the car." Privacy
