Chapter 591
Nova had not eaten breakfast this morning, and now she had just been drawn a few hundred milliliters of blood. When she got out of bed, her head was dizzy. The doctor asked her, “Are you okay? Have some milk later.”
Nova nodded. “I’m fine. Thank you, Doctor. By the way, when will she wake up?”
“The patient lost too much blood when she was sent over previously, causing her brain to lack oxygen. Although she’s out of danger now, we’re not sure when she’ll wake up.”
“Is she out of danger? Her life won’t be in danger, right?”
The doctor nodded. “Yes.”
“That’s good. Thank you.”
Shannon had been transferred to the intensive care unit.
Nova sat in front of the bed and looked at her.
Perhaps because of the sudden emergency just now, some gooey liquid was oozing out of Shannon’s nose. Nova approached the nurse for an alcohol cotton and carefully wiped her clean. At this moment, the door was pushed open.
Marshall’s eyes widened when he saw Nova in the ward.
From his point of view, it looked like Nova was plucking Shannon’s oxygen tube.
“What are you doing?!”
Marshall rushed over and pulled Nova up. Then, without thinking, he had slapped her.
“Ah!”
The alcohol swab in her hand fell to the ground.
Nova had stumbled back a few steps by his hard slap.
“You vicious bitch! As expected, it was you who did it. My wife is already unconscious because of you! You still won’t let her off!”
Nova held her numb cheek and slowly raised her head to look at him.
“You’re saying that I’m the one who harmed Shannon?”
“Who else could it be if not you?! I’m warning you, don’t try to sow discord between me and my daughter! And don’t get close to anyone around
me”
BUMS
Nova took a deep breath and suddenly smiled. As she continued to smile, she started crying. Marshall’s heart trembled.
“Mr. Adkins, you’re really a good father! I’ll remember the slap you gave me today. I hope you’ll never regret it.” Nova stared at him with a sharp gaze, shocking Marshall.
Her gaze made him feel something very familiar.
“Shannon’s life won’t be in danger anymore. If you don’t want anything to happen to the people around you, protect her well.” After saying this coldly, she left.
Marshall stood rooted to the ground for a long time before turning around. He walked to Shannon’s bedside and looked at her. At that moment, a nurse walked in. “May I ask if you’re done with the alcohol?”
“What alcohol?”
“That lady just now is your daughter, right? She asked to borrow some alcohol to clean the patient’s nose.” Marshall frowned.
The nurse then walked into the room, saw the alcohol bottle on the table, and said, “I found it.”
The nurse was about to leave when she said, “By the way, did your daughter leave already?”
Marshall was a little stunned. “Huh? Oh… She’s not my daughter. But yeah, she already left. What’s wrong?” Only then did he realize that he had misunderstood Nova.
“Oh, she transfused 600cc of blood
to the patient today. I heard that she hadn’t eaten breakfast in the morning, so she might feel a little
unwell. It’s best to let her drink some milk.”
Marshall was completely startled. “What did you say? She gave my wife a blood transfusion?”
“That’s right. Your lover lost a lot of blood just now, and there wasn’t enough blood in the blood bank. Coincidentally, the lady’s blood type matched. Did you not know this? Then you’ll have to thank her- properly. If it weren’t for her, it might have been very difficult for your lover to survive this crisis.”
