Chapter 328
Chapter 328
“You bad man! I hate you. You’re not my dad. I want Mom!”
“Be good! Or you’ll get more punishment!”
Lilia was terrified and kept pleading for her brother, “Dad, don’t hit Davian anymore. Boohoo……..”
Davian, come on, apologize to Dad. Say that you won’t do it again!” Irvin was timid but smart. If he were Davian, he would apologize right away to avoid getting hit.
He was terrified to see his brother being beaten up by their father.
“Hurry up and tell Dad that you know your mistake!”
Davian was stubborn. Even though his butt hurt, he refused to give in. “You want me to apologize to this baddie? No way!”
Bruce was so angry that he spanked the boy again.
“Dad, don’t hit Davian anymore! I’m begging you. Don’t hit him anymore.”
Gael couldn’t stand it anymore and tried to stop Bruce. “Mr. Everett, don’t hit Davian anymore. You’re strong. What if you injured him by accident?”
“Do you know your mistake?” Bruce spanked Davian twice more.
The boy was still so young, yet he already dared to challenge his father. What would happen when he grew up?
Bruce did not approve of the use of violence to discipline children, but the kid would not listen to him if he tried to reason with him. What’s more, he had a hard time controlling himself when he was in a rage.
“Thump!” Lilia fell from the wheelchair.
She burst into tears the moment her head banged on the floor.
Bruce’s heart ached when he saw that. He hurriedly let go of Davian and rushed up to his daughter.
“Lilia! Sweetie, are you alright?” Bruce held his daughter in his arms and comforted her gently.
“Boohoo!”
“Come on, show me where you got hit.”
Bruce took a close look and saw Lilia’s forehead gradually swell up.
It made his heart ache even more. He hurriedly stroked her forehead and blew on it.
“Good girl, does it hurt? Dad will massage it for you.”
Lilia looked up at him, her eyes full of tears. “Dad, can you stop hitting Davian?”
Davian felt a twinge in his heart when he saw his sister fall. He walked up to check on her as well. “Lilia, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.”
Davian didn’t cry after having been spanked so many times.
However, when he saw his sister deliberately fall out of the wheelchair to help him out and even get such a huge bump on her forehead, he couldn’t hold back his tears anymore.
“Lilia, it’s all my fault. I didn’t protect you well.”
“No, I accidentally fell down.”
“Boohoo…”
Looking at the three crying children, Bruce felt even worse.
Joanna was their mother. If she died, no one could replace her in their heart.
“Okay, don’t cry. As long as you listen to me, I will take you to see Mom”
When the three children heard this, they quickly stopped crying. “We promise we’ll be good. We’re very worried about Mom and want to go to the hospital to see her now.”
“You have to listen to me when we get to the hospital. Did you hear me?”
“Got it. Don’t worry, Dad. We’ll be good!”
Bruce took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Then go have dinner now. Go to bed early after you are done eating
“It’s too late today. I will take you to the hospital tomorrow morning.”
Chapter 328 “Alright.”
The kids did not dare to cry anymore and went to eat as they were told.
After Bruce left. Jaydon finally had the chance to see Joanna in the intensive care unit.
“Joann, when will you wake up?”
Jaydon held her hand tightly, heartbroken.
He didn’t know why, but it seemed to be especially hard if he wanted to be with Joanna. So much had happened since they
met.
“Joann, you’ve always encouraged me before. Now, it’s my turn to encourage you.
“Promise me that you will wake up. We have to be strong!”
As Jaydon spoke, he gently caressed Joanna’s pale face, tears streaming down his face and dripping onto the back of her hand.
Joanna’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes.
She could hear what Jaydon and Bruce said to her.
But she just couldn’t open her eyes. It was as if she was possessed by a nightmare. No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn’t wake up.
When Jaydon saw the tears in the corners of Joanna’s eyes, his chest tightened. He leaned close to her ear and continued, Joann, you can hear me, right?
“Joann, you’ve regained your consciousness, right?”
More tears rolled down from the corners of Joanna’s eyes, but she still did not wake up.
“Joann, you must be strong. You must wake up!
“Don’t forget what you promised me. You said you would marry me when my legs recovered.
“Joann, you can’t break your promise!
“Wake up. I’m begging you!” Jaydon became more and more agitated as he spoke.
The doctor was in the monitoring room. When he saw Joanna’s abnormal heart rate, he hurried to the intensive care unit.
“Mr. Grimm, please get out now!”
“Doctor, she’s crying. She can hear me. She has regained her consciousness!”
Seeing that he was so agitated, the doctor said, “Mr. Grimm, calm down.
“The patient is still recovering. You will impact her nervous system’s self–recovery if you keep her too emotional. There’s coagulated blood in her brain, and it takes time for it to be absorbed.
“This is a critical moment for the patient’s recovery. Don’t make her have emotional fluctuation. Otherwise, it will be bad for the absorption of the clot.”
When Jaydon heard this, he immediately apologized. “Oh, I’m sorry. I was just too excited.”
“You may leave and wait outside.”
“Joann, you’ve already slept for so long. Wake up quickly. I’m waiting for you outside.”
Jaydon was pushed out of the intensive care unit.
Just as he left the ward, he received a call from Tim.
“Hello!”
“Jay, I heard you came back from Gaprington!”
“Yes, Dad.”
“How have you
been?”
“Something happened to Joann. I came back to accompany her.”
Tim fell silent after hearing this.
This son was like him, but not in every aspect.
He was as gentle and affectionate as him but not as cold and fickle as him.
Tim loved every woman he saw, and it was impossible for him to be loyal to only one woman.
Chapter 328 “Alright.”
“I’m hanging up if you don’t have anything else.”
“Okay. Call me if you need anything.”
“Got it.”
Bruce brought the three kids to the hospital at eight o’clock the next morning.
“Mom, we’re here to see you.”
“Shh! Keep it down.”
“Is… is Mom still sleeping?” The kids stood outside and looked at their mother through the glass window. They could not help but cry.
