In the VIP ward, Elizabeth sat on the sofa crying. James squatted in front of her and coaxed her patiently.
After a long time, James only felt that he had said all his good words, and she had no intention to stop crying.
"My darling, can you stop crying?" James had already had a headache. But now when he looked at Elizabeth who was crying loudly, he only felt his headache worsen.
However, Elizabeth didn't care. She continued to cry aloud by herself.
"Hey! I'm in front of you. Why are you still crying? Do you really want me to die like the person in that room? So you can stop crying?"
Upon hearing this, Elizabeth's body was suddenly stunned, and then she covered her face with her hands and cried even harder.
"Elizabeth, that's enough! You..."
Just then, Samuel, who had just bought a takeaway from outside, suddenly came in. "President..." Looking at the situation in the room, he was about to turn around and leave to give them space.
"Come back!" James looked at him, then waved at him with a frown.
"What?" Seeing it, although Samuel couldn't help wondering why the President asked him to go back, he still walked over to them. When he arrived at the tea table, he even helps them set the food out.
"Tell me, what did you say to her?" He just woke up not long ago. Elizabeth would be here in front of him. He didn't have to think twice to know that Samuel had told her something.
What did Samuel say? He made her hold others and cry like crazy. She even didn't want to speak for such a long time.
Looking at Elizabeth, who was crying so sadly, Samuel generally understood that President wanted him to say what he said when he talked to the Young Madam on the phone.
He thought about it seriously. After a while, he shook his head and replied, "I didn't say anything special."
Upon hearing this, Elizabeth, who had been crying so sadly, immediately lowered her hand and looked at him with an accusing look, "You... said..."
Samuel was shocked when he saw Elizabeth's red and swollen eyes. He shook his head again and said, "Young Madam, I didn't..."
"You said... his situation... is very... terrible.."
Samuel scratched his head and said honestly, "President hit his head and got five stitches. I'm telling the truth."
His president would be depressed all day even with a pimple on his face. Now his head was banged up. Isn't that a terrible situation? Last time, he broke his lip a little and he got mad at him.
"You said it has been three hours, and he... didn't wake up yet..." Elizabeth's voice wasn't loud, and she was sobbing off and on. But it could be heard clearly what she was talking about.
"Young Madam," Samuel said with an embarrassed smile, "President needed stitches. So the doctor gave him an anesthetic..."
"Then why did you say..." Elizabeth cried so much that her nose was very uncomfortable, "He might... sleep for a long time... Don't you mean there's a chance he could become a vegetable?"
"Young Madam, You wronged me!" Samuel's eyes widened in horror, "I've asked the doctor. The doctor said that the effect of this anesthetic is varied from person to person, so..." He swallowed and looked in horror at his president who was looking directly at him, "I said that he might sleep for a long time."
"After that... You said he might never..." She couldn't say what she wanted to say anymore. She pursed her lips and thought of the fear she was feeling. She cried again in a low voice.
"I..." Samuel immediately found out that Young Madam misunderstood him on the phone call just now, then he said with embarrassment, "Alright, it's all my fault. It's my fault that I didn't make it clear. I made you sad. I'm sorry!"
Elizabeth was usually a kind person. But in the last two days, she was already in a bad mood because of her work. And then something like that happened today. So it was hard for her to forgive Samuel easily as well.
"Then why did you tell me... he is in that ward..."
