The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 701

"Novalee will be fine. Don't worry."

Mango made a gesture as she spoke.

"Are you sure? She was soaked in blood."

Walter sat on the bench in a daze.

He grabbed his hair tightly and kept pulling at it.

Why did he get so drunk?

Why did he let Novalee face all the hardship alone?

However, there was no room for regret.

Walter was feeling gloomy, and so did Mango. She hoped that Novalee and Walter could become a couple. Looking at Novalee now, she was upset though she knew it had nothing to do with her.

All that Genevieve could do was just wait quietly as she didn't know how to comfort them.

As time passed, the emergency room's light finally went out.

Unexpectedly, Walter's heart was hammering.

Maxton took a glance at them once he came out. He whispered, "The patient isn't in a good condition." "How is it going?"

Walter asked in a hurry.

His entire body felt like it was trembling.

Maxton's remark gave Mango the heebie-jeebies as well.

Maxton sighed, "The patient had suffered fractures besides three broken ribs and blood clots in other places. Fortunately, she was sent here in time, or else internal bleeding will likely pressure the nerve and lead to more consequences. More importantly, the patient's uterus was injured."

"What did you just say?"

Walter and Mango's eyes widened in an instant.

"Is that an accurate diagnosis, Maxton?"

Genevieve was at her wits' end.

Maxton nodded and said regretfully, "She was struck too wildly. As you know, the uterus is the most vulnerable part of a woman. It will take a long time to recover at this rate. Of course, what I mean is Chinese massage and traditional acupuncture as western medicine may not have any effect on her. I have no idea about the duration of this treatment as of now. Perhaps a few months, a year, or more than that. Honestly, her uterus might even recover after she's passed her fertility period. I'll need to see her relatives and have them sign an agreement."

Walter was completely stunned.

He knew the importance of a uterus to a woman more than anyone else.

Novalee had not married yet, and she had no boyfriend. Her life not even started. She had become like this because of his reckless attitude.

No matter how deeply remorseful and upset he was, he couldn't turn back time.

Walter's silence made Mango feel upset as well.

Just as she looked through her phone for Novalee's number, she realized that Novalee had not written down her next-of-kin.

"What's wrong?"

Genevieve hurriedly asked when she saw Mango's expression change.

Mango made a gesture and said, "Novalee didn't write down her next-of-kin."

Walter frowned at that.

"I'll check it out. Which town does Novalee come from?"

Mango gave the file which included Novalee's biodata to Walter.

Not long after, the report regarding Novalee had been sent over.

The report rendered him speechless.

"What's wrong with you?"

Mango asked in query.

All the information was then given to Mango.

The information showed that Novalee's parents were narcotics officers, and they both died a few years ago. Hence, she had a fifteen- year- old brother at school. However, Novalee barely touched the money left by her parents in the bank, and she mentioned that it was her brother's dowry in the future. Both her brother and Novalee's living expenses were covered by her current wages.

Mango's eyes were slightly moist when she read this.

A woman like her was supposed to be treasured, but instead, she ended up this way.

Walter's eyes were slightly reddened. He looked at Maxton and said, "I'm her close relative. I'll take responsibility for her stuff."

"Huh, it's you?"

Maxton felt puzzled looking at Genevieve and Mango.

Mango was stunned as well. Then, she heard Walter say, "Yes, I am her fiance! I will take care of her for the rest of her life."

After finishing his words, he took a glance at

Mango and rushed out.

His glance caused Mango's heart to ache.

She hoped that both Walter and Novalee could be a couple, but not like this.

"I'll check on him."

After Mango made a gesture to Genevieve, she ran out after Walter.

Walter did not go far, and he was seen in the hospital backyard.

There were relatively fewer people here. Walter squatted in the flower garden and silently cried with his hand covering his mouth.

His shoulders shook, and he looked desolate and helpless despite having a robust physique.

Mango slowly walked over and sat down beside him.

She didn't know how to comfort Walter. After all, she felt guilty about Novalee when this happened to her.
