Chapter 120 Only then did Theo take out his phone in a hurry. His voice was quivering, "Someone fell down the stairs and she's pregnant. There's a lot of blood. I need an ambulance, quick, now!" After hanging up the phone, he stumbled back upstairs and cback down with sclothes and towels in his hand.
I looked at him very calmly. My vision was blurry.
However, I still saw his fear and helplessness. I did not pity him but found it amusing instead. If I had known this earlier, would I have bothered in the beginning? He used the towel to wipe the blood under me, but it was pointless. It started flowing again right after every wipe.
All he could do was helpput sclothes on, carryoff the floor, and rush out the door.

His breathing slowly becheavy, but he did not give up and continued running.
Sirens were finally heard from a distance away. The ambulance was here at last.
His body suddenly becweak and he almost lost his balance. Several doctors and nurses immediately puton a stretcher. They carried out emergency first aid on the spot and only then were we ready to head to the hospital.
"You're the patient's family member, right? What are you doing there in a daze? Get in the vehicle, quick!" the doctor said to Theo who stood there motionless the whole time.
He wiped his face and got into the ambulance. He still looked gloomy and was silent, not uttering a word. Was he crying? I was like a bystander throughout the whole process, coldly watching as everything happened in front ofwithout even feeling any pain or fear. My nerves were all numb. It did not matter if the child could survive, but the distance between Theo and I was undoubtedly getting bigger. There was no way to fix this now.
He was hugging his head the whole tin the ambulance, not looking at me.
"Don't worry, we've performed first aid on her. We'll do our best to save her and the child. It's pointless to worry now. You should have taken good care of her since she's a pregnant lady. How could you have let her fall?" The doctor consoled when he saw Theo getting nervous.
The words of comfort were... better left unsaid! Theo's body trembled even more.
We reached the hospital in no time, and I was sent into the surgery room. I was awake the whole tuntil they gaveanesthetics. After that, I did not remember anything anymore.

Theo had stood outside the door the whole time. When he saw the door open, he immediately cover to check on me. He looked miserably pale as he asked the doctor in a small voice, "Is she okay? Why does she look unwell?" "Don't worry, the mother and the child are fine. But the fall was not light. I'm afraid she'll have to spend stin the hospital. It wasn't easy for Mrs.
Grant to be pregnant, Mr. Grant. She's had one too many accidents happening to her. What is it with you young people? Do you think being pregnant is a joke?" Only then did I realize that this was the sdoctor who treatedwhen I cto the hospital for bleeding previously.
Theo did not say anything and only nodded slightly. He looked a little tired. It had only been a few hours but he seemed to have aged.
After returning to the ward, I was tired and fell into a deep sleep as the anesthetics were still in my bloodstream. I woke up the next day and it was almost noon.
The nurse was changing the IV bag when I heard quarreling from outside the door. I was puzzled and asked the nurse, "Who's quarreling outside?"
