Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 245: You Didn't Serve Raymond Well Enough
It was three o'clock in the morning.
Selena received a phone call from the hospital, saying that James fell down the staircase and is currently being treated.
All her tiredness disappeared instantly. Selena quickly grabbed her nearby coat and put it on, her face changing.
Because she had been to this hospital before and had greeted the attending doctor, that doctor had called her without permission. When Selena arrived at the hospital, she saw Beatrice sitting alone in the hallway, but she didn't seem worried at all.
Was it just an illusion?
Beatrice's pupils sharply contracted when she saw Selena.
Why is Selena here?
Selena approached with a cold tone, "Didn't I bring him to the hospital before I went to Ridgefield? You should know that he has liver cancer. He should have rested in the hospital for a few more days. Why did you let him go back?" Beatrice was in a state of panic, but she straightened her chest at the thought of Kenny's words.
"Are you accusing me?! Don't you see how much your father has sacrificed for this family? If it weren't for the Montague family suddenly intercepting the project, would your father be in this state? It's all because you didn't serve Raymond well enough! It's all your fault! Just because of some trivial matters in the company, your father refused to stay in the hospital and secretly went back. It just so happened that I let the servants have a day off, so no one knew he went back. When I found him, the floor was covered in blood. If I had found him any later, he would have been dead!"
Beatrice sneered as she glanced up and down at Selena.
"And yet, you have the audacity to accuse me!"
Selena didn't say a word, silently sitting in a chair nearby.
Beatrice's fingertips on the side were trembling quietly, still not knowing how Selena could have arrived so quickly.
She was still thinking that if James could still be saved later, she would definitely pull out his oxygen pipe. Only then could all future troubles be eliminated.
Since she had made up her mind, she must do it completely!
Selena closed her eyes, hoping that the door to the emergency room would open quickly.
Despite the many unpleasant experiences with James, he was her biological father and had been with her for so many years.
After her mother passed away, they relied on each other.
If it weren't for Beatrice's appearance, their relationship would have been good all along.
Selena's eyes turned red, but she held back her tears.
Beatrice had been observing Selena all along, and when she realized that Selena didn't suspect anything, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief. James must not be revived.
Otherwise, she and Kenny would be done for.
Her child would also be done for.
The rescue continued until seven o'clock the next morning, when the scarlet words finally disappeared and James was brought out by someone.
Beatrice instantly stood up, trembling as she asked, "How is my husband? You must try your best." "Mrs. Fair, although Mr. Fair has been rescued, he still needs to be observed in the ICU for a few days. If he can't make it through..." The rest of the words were left unsaid, but everyone understood.
Beatrice's vision went black, and she almost fainted, leaning to one side with weak legs, supported by a nearby nurse.
"Mrs. Fair, we know you're very sad, but please hold on."
Selena saw Beatrice's strong reaction and immediately thought that she couldn't handle the blow. Beatrice had a look of panic on her face, and the last bit of color drained from her face.
"You must save my husband, I beg you, we are willing to pay any amount of money."
Someone helped Beatrice to another ward to rest, while James was pushed into the ICU.
Selena stood outside the ICU, not daring to even blink.
A nurse noticed that her cheeks were flushed and reached out to touch her forehead.
"Miss Fair, you have a fever. Why don't you sit down for a while? I'll get you some fever-reducing medicine."
Selena lowered her head and pulled out the medicine from her bag. "Thank you, just give me a glass of water."
The nurse quickly brought warm water.
"Actually, it's pointless for you to stay here. It's best to go back and rest. We will inform you of the situation here at any time."
Selena did feel dizzy, but she was really worried about her father's condition. She reluctantly searched for nearby hotels, but the closest one was miles away, where Raymond had booked a room.
