The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 282

The affection in Percival's eyes disappeared in an instant, and Vivienne abruptly opened her eyes wide.

"What happened?"

Leopold felt a cold sweat breaking out all over him. "Richard was in your car, and halfway there, he was attacked."

A cold chill instantly emanated from around Percival.

His car was attacked?

Were those people after Richard or him?

Vivienne furrowed her brows, asking gravely, "How is Richard?"

"Richard is seriously injured." Leopold activated the GPS, hesitating if he should take Vivienne along. "Thomas took the hit for Richard, and he's in critical condition!"

"Has the rest of the Ellington family gone to the hospital?"

“The other members of the Ellington family have already rushed to the hospital. What about us?”

A life was at stake, let alone the fact that the injured were Richard and Thomas.

Leopold was getting anxious.

Without any hesitation, Vivienne said, "Let's go to the hospital now!"

Percival didn't want her involved, but with her medical skills, it could give his grandfather and Thomas a glimmer of hope.

"Head to the hospital." He stressed. "Hurry!"

With both Vivienne and Percival saying so, Leopold didn't dawdle. He slammed his foot on the gas pedal and drove towards the hospital in haste.

The car was basically flying. They arrived at the hospital in less than half an hour.

Vivienne and Percival rushed up the stairs and arrived at the ER. The Ellingtons were already gathered there, anxiously asking about the situation.

"Doctor, how's my father?!" Ryan and Cathy stopped the doctor, who was about to operate on Richard. "Get the best surgeon right now! There can be no mistakes in my father's surgery!"

Heloise stood nervously with her children.

Cecilia, on the other hand, was sweating profusely.

"What exactly is the situation?! Where did the old man get injured, and why was there so much blood?!"

Cecilia was shocked when she arrived. The sight of the blood-stained floor was terrifying.

Vivienne and Percival pushed through the crowd to the front. The doctor quickly explained, "Richard is in a critical condition, and he needs surgery immediately!"

"Any further delay could cost him his life!"

The surgery had to be performed, but he had no confidence that he could successfully complete it.

Richard had hit an artery in the accident, so he was bleeding profusely. The wound was also near the heart, making it a situation that could go south easily.

Even a slight mistake could lead to a fatal outcome.

The patient on the operating table was none other than, Richard, the patriarch of the Ellington family. There was no room for error.

Vivienne frowned as she listened to the doctor. She was ready to scrub in and operate on the old man.

"I'll do this surgery." Her voice left no room for doubt.

Ryan and Cathy were startled and immediately blocked her way angrily. "Are you out of your mind?! The old man is in such a critical condition, and you want to mess around?!"
