Chapter 123: Patrick, You Can't Be Hurt

Patrick, you absolutely cannot be hurt!

Jane gritted her teeth against the pain and got out of bed.

She had to replace Patrick; she needed to see him with her own eyes, seehim unharmed.

"Miss North, you're awake?" Just at that moment, Jones entered theroom.

"Jones, it's great that you're okay," Jane said with relief upon seeingJones. She quickly asked, "Where's Patrick? Where is he? Have youseen Patrick?"

Jones glanced at Jane, hesitating before saying, "Mr. Pansy, he...""How is he?" Jane couldn't wait, her tone full of urgency, pushing foranswers.

"He's injured, currently receiving emergency treatment.” Jones sighedand added, "Mr. Pansy, his injuries are quite severe."

Emergency treatment... severe injuries...

Jane's head buzzed, and suddenly, everything went blank.

Patrick was injured because of her.

The moment the warehouse exploded, that breathtaking scene keptflashing in Jane's mind.

If he hadn't tried to save her, Patrick wouldn't be injured at all."Where's the emergency room?" Jane shouted at Jones.

Seemingly startled by Jane's state, Jones answered after a moment,"On the eighteenth floor."

As soon as Jones finished speaking, Jane rushed out of the ward,heading for the elevator.

But the elevator was on the top floor. Jane turned and went to thestairs, swiftly making her way to the eighth floor.

Jane's room was on the fifth floor. She climbed thirteen floors in one goand finally reached the eighteenth floor.

"Where's Patrick?" Jane grabbed a doctor in a white coat, askingfrantically in French.

"Oh, you mean Mr. Pansy from Pansy Group?" The doctor gave Jane aquick once-over, pointing inside, “In that emergency room."

"How is he? Is he okay?" Jane urgently inquired.

The doctor shook his head, "Sorry, I don't know.”

Jane sprinted to the entrance of the emergency room. A nurse stoppedher, "I'm sorry, miss, the doctor is treating a patient. You can't go in.""The patient inside, is he okay?" Jane stared anxiously at the tightlyclosed door of the emergency room, asking with worry.

The nurse smiled politely, "Miss, please rest assured. The doctor will dohis best."

Rest assured?

How could she rest assured?

If something happened to Patrick, she would be guilty for a lifetime.Jane's heart hung tightly, hands clasped in front of her, prayingincessantly.

He'll be fine; Patrick will definitely be fine!

"Miss North." A familiar voice reached Jane's ears.

Following the sound, Jane discovered Bruce and several managersfrom Pansy Group's French branch sitting in seats next to theemergency room. Every face bore expressions of deep concern.

Jane walked over. "Mr. Bruce, how's Patrick?"

Bruce's face hardened. "I just arrived. I rushed over as soon as I gotthe news. How could something like this happen?"

“I don't know. The warehouse exploded.” Jane rubbed her temples,responding.

She suddenly realized that something was off.

The warehouse didn't explode earlier or later, precisely when she andPatrick went over.

Could there be such a coincidence in this world?!

Just then, the door to the emergency room opened, and a doctorwheeled Patrick out.

"Patrick, are you okay?" Jane took a quick step forward, looking atPatrick with concern.

But Patrick didn't answer her.

He was unconscious, lying quietly on the hospital bed. Hisextraordinarily handsome face was now deathly pale, eyes tightly shut.Bandages covered his head and legs, with faint traces of blood seepingthrough.

Seeing Patrick like this, Jane's nose tingled, and tears threatened tospill.

She sniffled, telling herself she had to stay calm. She couldn't afford topanic now.

“Doctor, is he okay?" Jane turned to the doctor nearby, her voiceslightly trembling.

She feared hearing what she didn't want to hear.

The doctor spoke solemnly, "Mr. Pansy was hit on the head and legs bya steel plate. The head injury is quite severe. Although we've providedemergency treatment, the situation is still not optimistic.”

Not optimistic... what does that mean?

Jane's heart felt like it had been ruthlessly stabbed, the pain intense.Why was Patrick so foolish, risking his life to save her?

"When will he wake up?" Jane bit her lip, urgently asking.

The doctor sighed softly, "It's hard to say. He might wake up tomorrow,or..."

The doctor didn't continue, but his implication was clear.

Worry, anxiety, regret... a myriad of complex emotions churned inJane's heart. She looked down at the unconscious Patrick, spoke withdetermination, "No, Patrick will be fine!"

Bruce patted Jane's shoulder. “Yes, Patrick will be fine. Miss North,you're also injured. Go back to your room and rest. We'll arrange forsomeone to take care of Patrick.”

“I'm fine. I want to stay with Patrick.” Jane shook her head.

The doctor pushed Patrick into the VIP ward. Jane sat by the bed,gazing at the familiar handsome face. Regret filled her voice, "I'm sorry,Patrick. It's all because of me that you got hurt. If I hadn't insisted oncoming to France, none of this would have happened.”

Pausing, Jane held Patrick's hand. "Patrick, you have to wake up, youmust!"

At that moment, a gentle knocking echoed.

Jane opened the door cautiously, and Jones stood outside.

"Jones, is there something wrong?" Jane asked softly.

Jones glanced into the room. "Mr. Pansy, is he... okay?"

Jane pursed her lips. "Still unconscious."

Jones sighed. "I never expected something like this to happen. Mr.Pansy is strong; he'll be fine."

Jane raised her gaze, glancing at Jones. "We arrive in France, and thewarehouse explodes. Too coincidental. Jones, have you foundanything?"

"Everything happened too suddenly,” Jones's eyes darkened. "At theexplosion site, firefighters discovered two casualties.”

Jane's eyelids twitched. "Two casualties? Who were they?"

"We suspect they were warehouse personnel. We need further DNAtesting to confirm,” Jones spoke in a low voice. "With the issues in theraw materials, it's possible these two individuals were involved."

Jane nodded thoughtfully. "Jones, I appreciate your efforts. Pleasecontinue investigating, see if we can confirm whether these twoindividuals were behind the problems with the raw materials and if thewarehouse explosion is related to them."
