Chapter 793
Twenty minutes later, Darcy and Carson arrived at Northshore Hospital.
Carrying Bruce, they rushed into the building and called for a doctor. “Get a doctor over here immediately! He needs urgent medical attention.”
Shocked, the nurses rushed forward to check on the situation. “What’s going on?”
With a frightened expression, Darcy replied, “He was perfectly alright just a few moments ago. We don’t know why he passed out all of a sudden!”
Noticing their aggressive demeanor, the nurses realized immediately that these people were no ordinary men.
That aura was especially apparent in the patient himself. Although he was passed out in his friends’ arms, he still commanded a significant presence. Besides, his clothes belonged to an expensive brand that not many people could afford.
He was definitely a big shot.
“Call the doctor right away!”
“Put an oxygen mask on the patient immediately and take his blood pressure.”
A few nurses at the front desk rushed forward to surround them and hurriedly carried Bruce onto a hospital gurney.
“The patient’s blood pressure is abnormally low. His diastolic pressure is only 60, and his pulse is also feeble. He must undergo an operation immediately.”
Not daring to hesitate another moment, the nurses pushed Bruce into an emergency room without another word.
Seeing this, Darcy and Carson felt their hearts drop to their stomachs. Their minds went blank, and they suddenly felt a bit lost.
Mr. Everett was fine when he got off the plane. He even carried on a normal conversation with them.
Yet things had changed all of a sudden.
They couldn’t figure out what was going on either. They felt like they were out of their wits.
“Darcy, what should we do now? Mr. Everett was fine just now. Why did he suddenly fall into a coma?”
“I don’t know either! What should we do?”
“Call Miss Haynes immediately and tell her to come over quickly!”
“Oh, right. We should give her a call.”
Darcy had never been so flustered before. When he took out his phone, his hand was trembling.
Beep beep!
His call to Joanna went through very quickly.
Joanna was a little surprised to receive a call from Darcy. “Hello, Darcy. What’s up?”
“Miss Haynes, it’s me.” Darcy was practically stuttering with how panicked he was.
“I thought you asked Bruce for an extended vacation.”
Darcy was in no mood to make small talk right now. Jumping straight to the point, he said, “Miss Haynes, something has happened to Mr. Everett.
“Hurry up and make a trip to Sootherȧtion! You have to do this as soon as possible…”
Instantly, Joanna’s body stiffened as if she had been struck by lightning. “W-What did you say?”
“Mr. Everett is in trouble and is being treated in the hospital. Come to the hospital in Sootheration immediately. I’m afraid it might be too late if you don’t come now.” Darcy had never been good with words, nor had he any tact.
When Joanna heard this, she staggered and almost fainted from shock. “How… How could this be? What happened to him?” “I don’t have time to explain too much to you. Hurry up and come now!
“Long story short, when we met Mr. Evertt at the airport just now, he was still fine. But for some reason, he suddenly fainted while talking. We sent him to the hospital, and the doctors are trying to save his life now!”
After Joanna heard this, she felt a chill run down her spine. The blood seemed to have frozen in her veins.
She had a feeling that something was going to happen to Bruce.
Her worst nightmare had come true.
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
“Which hospital are you at? Send me an address immediately.”
“It’s at Northshore Hospital. I’ll send you a location now…”
“Okay, okay.”
After hanging up., Joanna felt like she was in a trance. It was as if she had lost his mind.
“Sootheration… I have to go there quickly…”
Seeing this, Miranda immediately asked with concern, “Joann, what’s wrong?”

“I’m going to Sootheration now. Gael, Miranda. I’ll leave the children to you for the time being.”
“Joann, what happened?”
Joanna fiddled with the loose hair at her temples and forced herself to calm down. “I’ll explain to you when I come back. I have to leave immediately.”
“Gael, arrange a private plane for me immediately. I want to fly to the capital immediately…”
“Miss Haynes, what’s so urgent?”
Joanna held her breath as tears welled up in her eyes. “Something happened to Bruce. I have to rush over to see him now.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange for a plane right away.” Gael also looked flustered when he heard that.
Joanna didn’t have time to say too much. She hurried upstairs to get her passport.
Five minutes later., Joanna reappeared downstairs with her passport. She hadn’t even bothered to pack her clothes.
“Joann, be careful!”
“Miranda, help take care of the children!”
“Yes, yes, I will. Don’t worry.”
Although Miranda was just a family servant, she had been with Joanna for a long time. They were like mother and daughter, Every time Joanna went out, she took care of the children. Joanna never had to worry about leaving her kids under Miranda’s care.
Joanna gave her a few instructions about the children and left quickly.
Although the Everett family had a private plane, it was parked at the airport.
She had no choice but to rush down to the hangar.
On the plane, Joanna kept praying that Bruce was playing a nasty prank on her.
She hoped that he just wanted to scare her so she could fly over for them to reunite.
That had to be it… or so she prayed.
After Joanna left, Miranda and Gael looked at each other in worry. “Oh my god, why did something happen to Mr. Everett again?”
“Over the past year, the Everett family has been plagued with trouble. Did something happen? Could someone have cursed Mr. Everett?”
When Gael heard this, his expression also turned solemn.
This was not impossible.
Many people in Greyport and Venturas were devout believers in the Ghost Boy and Tame Head. They were famous legends in Southeast Alendor.
They were also commonly referred to as ‘Ghost Children’.
