Benedict, that's right! With his identity and status, he would surely know someone from the hospital.
Although Vivian did not want to bother Benedict, she had no choice given the current circumstance.
"Hello, Vivian. What happened that you're calling so late at night?” Benedict's voice gave her some comfort and made her feel safe.
As she felt slightly relieved, she burst out crying. "Benedict, my mom... she fell down and accidentally knocked herself on the head. She's losing a lot of blood. Can you help me to contact the hospital..."
She wept and wept.
When Benedict learned what happened, he jumped up from his bed, put on his clothes hastily and sped off. "Don't be too anxious. Where are you now? I'll go over right away."
Without further delay, Vivian reported her location, "We're on our way to the Pinnacle Hospital. We're almost there."
"All right, don't panic. Take good care of your mother. I'm going to call the hospital now and make the necessary arrangements." Benedict rushed to his garage.
"Thank you, Benedict." She hung up after expressing her gratitude.
Holding on to Rachel's hand, Vivian prayed hard. Mom, please be okay.
When they arrived at the hospital, there were doctors waiting at the entrance. Subsequently, Rachel was sent to the emergency ward. Not long after, Benedict showed up.
"How... how's your mother?” Benedict panted for breath.
Shaking her head, Vivian could not control herself and started crying. "I don't know, I..."
"Rest assured that everything will be fine," Benedict comforted her and patted her back.
She nodded.
The indicator at the operating room remained lit. Vivian felt so restless as she stared at the tightly shut door.
