Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 235

The killing was payback, Brittany had a long future ahead of her and didn't want to die yet!

Hidden deep inside Brittany's thoughts weren't really fears for George's life, they were fears for her own.

Brittany gripped Daniel's arm in a panic, "Why do you think Dad is suddenly foaming at the mouth?"

Daniel looked back at her and said worriedly, "I don't know. Let's just wait and see what the doctor says."

"Dad just looked terrifying, I'm worried he'll... die..." the last word Brittany said especially softly, as she didn't want that possibility to arise.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Alice suddenly look at her extremely stern, "Brittany! What are you talking about?"

Brittany was so surprised that she cried even harder, and she could already imagine Alice's reaction when she learned the truth!

Alice took a few breaths and sadly asked them, "You guys tell me what happened in the house while I was gone."

Brittany was trembling and fidgeting with her words.

Suddenly, the red light for "in surgery" dimmed and the operating room was pushed open.

Alice immediately stood up to greet the attending surgeon who emerged from the operating room.

The attending surgeon took off his mask and spoke heavily amidst the varying micro-expressions of the three "Mr. Ramsay has been tentatively diagnosed with a stroke..."

"Stroke?" All three of them looked ridiculous, and Brittany got even more intense, pointing at the doctor's nose and yelling, "You're lying! My dad has a coronary. How could it be a stroke! It must be your wrong diagnosis!"

Before Brittany could lose her demeanor, Alice stopped her in a rare moment of anger, "Let doctor finish!"

Brittany stared hard at the doctor as if he was the one responsible for her dad's stroke.

The doctor said under tremendous pressure, "Emotional outbursts, depression, overwork, and blood stasis are all possible triggers for Mr. Ramsay's stroke, plus he's old and must not be as strong as before. I'm afraid..."

"You're afraid of what?" Alice looked at him in horror.

"I'm afraid that even if he is rescued, he will be unable to speak, walk upright, or even hold a pen or chopstick in the future." The doctor announced with regret.

Brittany was completely freaked out at this point, and Alice was in such a bad state. Daniel asked, "Is he going to be in danger?"

"There is no danger of getting sick for the time being." The doctor euphemistically said, "It's just that the older the patient is, the worse the recovery will be, depending on how long the patient's family's finances can support the patient's treatment..."
