Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1461

The suspension rope that had been dangling for over ten hours started to loosen.

Joshua's entire body was pressed against the side of the cliff as he desperately tried to hold on.

However, because of his violent movements, the wound he had acquired during his encounter with Malcolm's men started to throb.

Finally, his wound split apart, and Joshua, having depleted all his energy, plummeted down the side of the cliff.

"Mr. Lynch!"

When Jude arrived at the hospital, Joshua had already been in the operation room for almost ten hours.

Nigel, Neil, and Nellie sat on a bench outside the operation theater, staring at the door in silent unison.

The three of them had red faces as though they had been crying. Even Nigel, who had always been the most level-headed out of the three, had tear stains on his face.

Despite this, as soon as he saw Jude, Nigel quietly got out of his seat and lifted his head to stare at Jude. " Uncle Jude."

Jude suppressed the concern in his heart, squatted, and gently pressed Nigel's shoulder. "How’s Joshua?"

"Daddy..." Nigel let out a sigh and said, "He fell off the side of a cliff and almost died.

"Thankfully, the place where he fell off was less than ten meters from the bottom, and there was a large pool of water beneath, so he managed to survive, but..."

Nigel glanced at the door to the operation door and continued, "But when he was in Merchant City, he suffered too many injuries, including a gunshot. On top of that, the water he fell into wasn't clean, so bacteria entered his wound, and he has a severe infection.

"The doctor said that he has to rest and can't afford to continue running around anymore."

Jude’s entire body stiffened when he heard this.

What had Joshua been through while he was in Merchant City?

When Joshua was about to depart to Merchant City, Jude had wanted to go with him, but Joshua told him that he was worried the Landry or Quinn families would attack Lynch Group while he was preoccupied i n Merchant City.
