In the ambulance, the doctors were giving first aid treatments to Adrian. Miss Ren anxiously looked at
the poor little boy who was lying lifelessly on the stretcher. He must have passed out from losing too
much blood.
The teacher, Miss Ren was rather flustered. She kept on swallowing nervously while fidgeting on her
seat. What had just happened was flashing before her eyes.
That afternoon, Adrian's class was having their PE class. Miss Ren brought the children to the football
field. When Adrian was running, he fell down. His knees scratched the grass, and blood kept oozing out
from the wound. Fortunately, his delicate face wasn't injured.
"I'm in the JR Hospital right now. Is Adrian alright?" Mandy's face immediately turned pale. Her whole
body trembled, and her legs were shaking.
"Adrian… He's currently unconscious," Miss Ren said in a trembling voice, looking pale as well.
As soon as the accident happened, Miss Ren called the ambulance. The headmaster of the
kindergarten knew who Adrian's parents were, so he asked the teacher to call Mandy. Compared to
Nathan, Mandy was easier to talk with. So, no one dared to call him.
"I see. I'll wait for you in the emergency room." After ending the call, Mandy rushed out of the
Cardiology Department.
In a second, both Cassie and Angelina ran out of the room as well. At that moment, the off-duty bell
rang. Before they got a chance to change their clothes, they followed Mandy to the emergency room.
After about five minutes, the ambulance arrived.
As they were always prepared, doctors in the emergency room were ready to receive the patient.
Among them were the best surgeons in the hospital. They were supposed to be off duty, but as soon as
they heard that Mandy's child was injured, they voluntarily stayed.
As soon as the doors of the ambulance were opened, a few doctors lifted the stretchers out of the
vehicle. Mandy ran up to them. She immediately felt her heart sink when she saw how pale and lifeless
Adrian looked.
Adrian's knees were wrapped in gauze, and there was a slight bruise in his shin. Fortunately, there
were no other injuries. But why did he pass out?
"Adrian. Adrian. Please don't scare me." Mandy was filled with sorrow as she followed Adrian, who was
being moved across the room. Her nose was so red while tears involuntarily started to flow from her
eyes.
The surgeons were already waiting in the operating room. Mandy wanted to go inside as well, but since
she wasn't a doctor in the JR Hospital anymore, she was not allowed to enter. While outside the room,
she was extremely anxious. She didn't know what else she could do.
Angelina suddenly took her hand tightly and said, "Mand, just wait here. Don't worry. Nothing will
happen to Adrian. I'll go in, so please trust me, okay?"
Mandy nodded her head. She looked at her with a blank expression on her face. At the very least, she
could trust Angelina. She then held her friend's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Okay, I'll leave it to
you."
In response, Angelina patted her on the shoulder and comforted her with her eyes, as if she was
transferring some strength into her.
"Mand, don't worry. He'll be fine. He just got injured. He'll wake up soon. Don't think too much about it
and calm down." Meanwhile, Cassie bit her lower lip since she didn't know how to comfort Mandy. She
felt like her heart was burning.
"Yes, you're right. He's going to be fine," Mandy muttered. She briefly looked at Cassie, but saw that
the woman looked anxious as well.
Mandy's mind was in a total mess. During that time, she couldn't even think properly. Her heart was
being consumed by worry for her beloved boy.
Meanwhile, Nathan was in a meeting, which was already running into overtime, and it was being
extended for another forty minutes. When he was finally able to go downstairs after the meeting, he
discovered that Mandy was not in the office.
Quintin told him that Mandy hadn't come back since she went out that afternoon.
With a frown, he took out his phone and called Mandy with a serious expression on his face.
It rang for more than ten seconds before she finally answered the call. Her voice was trembling, and it
sounded like she was about to cry.
"Nathan, something happened to Adrian. We're currently in JR Hospital," Mandy weakly said while
leaning against Cassie's chest.
She had been so worried about Adrian that she forgot to call Nathan earlier.
Nathan instantly furrowed his eyebrows, and he asked in a steady voice, "What happened to Adrian?"
"He fell at the kindergarten. He was bleeding, and he was unconscious when he arrived here. I don't
know what's wrong yet. I'm outside of the operating room right now. They're still checking up on him."
"I'm coming. Don't cry. Our Adrian will be fine." In a second, he quickly ran out of his office.
It was rush hour at that time. The noise of cars and their horns could be heard on the bustling street.
Nathan drove the car towards the hospital as quickly as possible. He even ignored a few red traffic
lights and almost caused a traffic accident.
A policeman at the roadside saw a black sports car roaring past him. The driver had violated the traffic
rules, so he was about to catch up with it. But when he looked again, the car had already disappeared
right before his eyes.
Without even stopping for a breath, Nathan rushed all the way to the operating room. The man's
delicate face was filled with sweat, and his hair hung disheveled over his forehead.
His deep eyes were like the sea, and his eyebrows were furrowed tightly. With his lips pressed
together, he walked straight to Mandy.
At that time, Mandy was pacing back and forth in front of the operating room. Her eyes were red and
swollen, evidently showing that she had just cried.
As time went by, Mandy was so distressed that she wished she could rush inside the room to see for
herself what was happening to Adrian.
"Mand, what happened? How long has Adrian been in there?" Nathan stretched out his long arm and
embraced Mandy.
Meanwhile, Miss Ren was standing beside them, drowning in fear and guilt. She didn't dare to look up
at Nathan, afraid that he would be very harsh on her. She was so scared that she couldn't even breathe
properly.
"It's been half an hour. Nathan, he fell down by himself. It has nothing to do with Miss Ren." In fact,
even in her state, Mandy noticed that Miss Ren was trembling. Looking at her pale face, Mandy didn't
have the heart to blame her. Although Adrian fell under the teacher's supervision, she didn't think it was
the Miss Ren fault at all. It was an accident, plain and simple. Blaming other people wouldn't do any
good for anyone.
Miss Ren was only a young girl in her early twenties. She had never been in such a situation before.
Mandy was also afraid that Nathan might blame the teacher.
"Yes, I know. Miss Ren, could you tell us more details about what actually happened?" Squinting his
narrow eyes, Nathan remained very calm. Even the expression on his face was
serene.
