Patrick's words were like a sharp sword that pierced into Roger's heart.
Roger stood there. Although he looked calm, he lost all his momentum.
At this moment, the ambulance arrived.
Although Dulcie was angry and hard to accept it, she could tell what was more important.
She opened the door and let the doctor in.
The doctor examined Ned first, and then quickly carried him into the ambulance.
Because of the small space in the ambulance, only two people were allowed to accompany Ned.
Sheridan and Melissa got in.
Once they left, it was just me, Patrick, Dulcie, and Roger left in the room.
"I'll ask the driver to drive the car over." Patrick took out his phone and called the driver.
Then I supported him to go out.
Dulcie and Roger stood there without saying a word.
Patrick did not talk to them either. He went out with me and got in the car.
We decided to order the servants to take care of Glenn first.
We called Lacy and asked her to pick Glenn up.
The ambulance went especially fast because all the other cars gave way.
When we arrived at the Holy Spirit Hospital, Ned had already been sent to the emergency room.
In the corridor, Sheridan gnashed his teeth in anger. "How could Dulcie be so foolish? How could she be deceived by a gigolo so easily! If something bad happens to dad, I'll never forgive her!"
"Forget it, she has made a fool of herself."
Melissa was an outsider in the end. She couldn't say something bad about Dulcie. She could only try to persuade Sheridan.
"Let bygones be bygones." Patrick also advised. "We just made it clear, I bet Dulcie also knows that there are no free lunches in life. She should be the most painful person now."
"Alas!"
Sheridan sighed.
After all, they grew up together.
He was just saying that. In the end, he couldn't really do anything to Dulcie.
While we were waiting for Ned, the lights in the operating room suddenly went out.
We all stood up nervously.
Ned was just sent in. Why did the lights go out? Could it be...
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. We were all guessing at the worst possible scenario, but no one said it out.
Soon the door opened and we walked to the nurse who held us back and said, "Move over, we need to send the patient to the surgical suite."
"Why?"
We walked over.
The nurse didn't explain, but just told us to move over.
None of us dared to block their way. We followed them and watched the nurse transfer Ned from emergency room to a surgical suite.
When we went upstairs, we found a man standing there waiting for us.
Shelton.
"Why are you here? You're doing this operation?"
Sheridan saw him and immediately went forward to ask.
He showed a bad look.
The Cowell Family trusted Shelton very little. If Shelton was the one who would do the operation, in the Cowell Family's opinion, it was the same as sentencing Ned to death.
Then a doctor came to explain, "Now the patient's condition is very complicated, and the operation might take a long time. Although our vice director is also an excellent doctor, he is too old. This operation may last for more than ten hours, and the vice director's energy may not catch up."
