Chapter 149:
Hank shouted in a louder voice.
“Okay, don’t quarrel. The patient is in critical condition now. I came out to ask Bella’s husband if there’s an accident; the child may not be saved. Do you have any objections? If there’s no objection, Bella’s husband will have to sign the consent form.”
The female doctor said loudly. I was too shocked. I didn’t expect the situation to be this serious. I immediately said, “No problem.”
Hank said the same as me. This guy didn’t have the right to say such a thing. I pushed Hank aside and walked to the doctor.
“No problem. I hope the doctor will do everything possible to save my wife.”
As I spoke, I took the document from the doctor and signed it.
“We will do our best.”
The doctor entered the operating room with the documents. I stood there, staring at the door, feeling conflicted. I was genuinely worried about Bella’s safety. At this moment, I heard my mother’s voice.
“Mr. Hank, no matter what kind of relationship you had with Bella, she is now my son’s wife, a member of our Wharton family. Please leave immediately!”
“…”
Hank couldn’t respond.
Caroline then added, “You seem to be a cultured and moral person, but you’re competing with Bella’s husband for attention. Isn’t that shameless?”
Before leaving, Hank warned me, “If anything happens to Bella, I will definitely smash your head!”
After that, he turned and walked away. After Hank left, Caroline walked over to me.
“Herbert, who is this man? What’s his relationship with Bella?”
“Does this have anything to do with you?” I asked coldly. With an aggrieved expression, McKenna spoke up for her.
“Caroline is just being kind. Don’t be so angry!”
I didn’t answer. Instead, I looked at Miranda, who immediately lowered her head and didn’t dare to look me in the eye.
The next moment, I stepped forward and asked, “Miranda, why did Hank come here?”
“This…”
Miranda hesitated.
“Say it!”
I roared impatiently.
“Mr. Wharton is asking you! You must be honest,” McKenna said, staring at Miranda. Miranda glanced at McKenna and said, “It’s… Madame who gave me this phone number.”
“She asked me to inform Hank to come. I was in a hurry when I went out and forgot to bring my phone, so I asked a nurse to call him for me.”Miranda‘s POV,
I didn’t know how to respond to Mr. Wharton’s question.
Up until that moment, I was still hesitating about what to do. It wasn’t until I raised my head and saw McKenna that I suddenly felt terrified.
For the sake of my family, I said something against my will. I told him that Bella had asked me to call Hank.
