Love’s Unexpected Arrival The Bride Who Came Knocking by Rochelle

Chapter 16 Don’t Be Overoptimistic

In the hospital of Erus City. The light in the operation room was switched on. Maria crossed her arms tearfully and paced back and forth before the operation room. She kept murmuring, “Please. Everything will be fine. Everything will be fine. Mark, you will make it. You will!” The door suddenly opened. A doctor in a white uniform got out. Maria immediately rushed to him. “Doctor, how’s he going? Is it smooth?” The doctor took a look at her and said, “We’re still working on it. Please wait patiently!” After that, he left directly. Maria chased after him and shouted, “Doctor, doctor!” Daniel immediately stopped Maria and tried to console her. “Maria, don’t worry. He will be fine. Let’s just wait. Don’t push the doctors. Don’t distract them!” Maria looked up at Daniel and then nodded. She found a seat. However, she was restless. After a while, something occurred to her. She asked Daniel, “What about it? Have you connected Mark’s family?” Daniel shook his head. “Mark’s sister is now going through a one-month enclosed training. I suppose it doesn’t come to a close. So I can’t reach her!” Maria frowned. Although she had known Mark for quite a time, she had never asked him about his family background. Did he only have a sister? Like Maria, Mark had rare relatives. Never mind. Anyway, Maria claimed to be Mark’s sister and signed the operation agreement. The hospital had accepted it. The door of the operation room opened again. An assistant came out and shouted, “Where’s Mark’s family?” Maria and Daniel quickly stood up. Maria rushed to the assistant in excitement. “Doctor, I’m his sister!” “OK.” The assistant nodded and said, “He is in a very bad condition, with seven broken ribs, one of which went through the chest cavity from behind and got stuck on the left side of the heart, which made the operation very difficult. Moreover, the patient’s blood type is very rare, RH-negative AB blood. We have already tried to notify those with the same blood type who have reserved information, but they may not be able to come over soon. The cost of this surgery is not low and the post-operative rehabilitation treatment is also very costly.” “Doctor, money is not the key point. You must try your best to save him. Is he out of danger?” Maria looked at the assistant expectantly. The assistant said again, “We’re still working on the operation. I’m not sure whether he is out of danger now. It depends on his physical condition after the operation.” “Alright.” Maria nodded her head heavily. The assistant continued, “You need to pay 8.5 thousand dollars right now!” “OK, I’ll pay the bill right now!” After that, Maria was in a hurry to pay the bill for fear that the doctors wouldn’t take the operation seriously or use ineffective medicine. After 12 hours, Mark was rolled out of the operation room. Maria immediately rushed over. Looking at Mark’s pale face, she felt very guilty. She clung to the surgeon and asked anxiously, “Doctor, how is he going? When will he wake up?” The doctor nodded and said, “The surgery was quite successful, but the injuries are too severe. I can’t tell you exactly when he will wake up. If nothing happens, he should wake up within three days! However, don’t be too optimistic. His condition is very serious. It’s impossible to recover from one surgery. If he can wake up in three days, we will proceed to schedule the next surgery.” What Maria feared the most was that an accident would take place again! Mark was rolled to his ward. Maria stayed with him. Daniel tried to persuade her to take a rest, but she didn’t listen to him. The executives of the Great Mansion responsible for the project came to the hospital and offered to pay medical bills. But Maria rejected them angrily. “Mark is badly injured? What’s the point of giving him money? No need. He doesn’t need a penny!” Daniel asked the executives to go back and waited for Mark to recover a bit. As for medical bills, Maria would pay them off. Daniel witnessed what happened. He knew that Maria was very guilty!
