"Mr. Wilber, bringall the medical equipment right now. Gareth's poison has spread. He needs urgent treatment.” Elisa adjusted Gareth's seat so that it becflat. That would allow him to lay on it more comfortably. Once she was done, Gareth's assistant and bodyguard arrived with the medical equipment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey had received special training and were qualified to assist Elisa.
Elisa quickly changed into a surgical scrub and disinfected her hands before leading a few men to begin surgery on Gareth.
"Hemostat! The flesh around the wound has festered and has to be removed with forceps!" "Suture forceps!" "Gauze!" The surgery lasted a few hours and ended when the plane landed smoothly. Elisa slumped in a chair from exhaustion and allowed a flight attendant to wipe the sweat on her brow.
"Ms. Benett, you're amazing! | did not expect a mere assistant likewould have a chance to participate in surgery! It's an incredible experience. Thank you, Ms. Benett. | will inform Mr. Wickam what happened once he regains consciousness." The assistant kneeled beside Elisa and chattered excitedly. Elisa could only respond with a weak smile. She was too tired to say anything.
Then, the assistant brought a glass of water and food. He also got her a bottle of glucose. Elisa was too exhausted to eat, so the bottle of glucose was what she needed the most.
After sending Gareth to a hospital in the city and arranging for someone to care for him, Elisa rushed to Wickam Residence.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWickam Residence was as luxurious as she remembered. The garden before the front door had been renovated. Even though Elisa often chere, she almost lost her way while searching for the main entrance. Thankfully, the servants recognized her and brought her to Julia's bedroom.
Julia was asleep. Elisa could not bear to wake her up and sat on the couch in the living room to wait for her.
Elisa glanced at the unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar surroundings. Suddenly, memories flooded her mind, leaving her feeling conflicted.
"Liz, you're here! Why didn't you wakeup? You must have waited for a long time!" An older female voice sounded from the stairs as Elisa was in a daze. Elisa set her concerns aside and rushed to support Julia at the stairs. She was dressed in a pajamas with a jacket over it. "Grandma, why are you here? Are you feeling better?" "Yes, | feel much better. I'm not so ill as to be unable to get out of bed." Julia smiled and looked at Elisa warmly.
Her kind gaze made Elisa feel awkward. She looked down and adjusted her emotions before saying, "Grandma, you should wash up and have breakfast first. | will check your condition afterward.” "Sure, sure! Liz, you're such a good granddaughter. You're at least ten times better than that br*t!" Julia suddenly recalled something after mentioning Gareth. She glanced at the villas surrounding with anticipation. Her wizened face turned dejected when she realized the person she most wanted to see was absent.
Elisa knew Julia wanted to see Gareth. However, Gareth was under observation in ICU. It would be shocking if he were to show up now.
In order not to worry Julia, Elisa created a lie. "Gareth accidentally fell as he got off the plane and tore his wound. He is in the hospital now." Elisa decided to help Gareth hide his poisoning from Julia. After all, this was a matter of the Wickam family, and she was no longer a part of it. Moreover, she knew she had to calm Julia if she told the truth. Thus, she decided to lie to avoid causing trouble to herself.
