Chapter 178

When Ryan heard Dr. Scott’s words, he frowned and was a little puzzled. “My mother-in-law has been unconscious for such a long time. Why can’t we visit and talk to her often? According to my understanding, Vegetative people should talk more with her to wake up as soon as possible.”

Director Scott understood what Ryan said and showed him the medical case in his hand. “This is the record of my treatment of Eleanor all these years. You have seen it before. Because of the stimulation, the patient is willing to wake up. But if she continues to be stimulated, I’m afraid that she will die in her brain.”

Director Scott’s words made sense. This matter was indeed believable. Ryan did not know much about medicine but listening to Director Scott’s words, there were no loopholes. He did not continue to ask and left the hospital with Elena.

Along the way, she felt that the man beside her was not alright. She turned around to face him. “What’s wrong? You look like you have a lot on your mind.”

“I keep feeling that there is something wrong with this Director Scott. As the director, why is he so concerned about your mother’s condition? Don’t you think that it’s not right for him to stop us from visiting?”

This Director Scott did not seem to wish for Eleanor to wake up. No matter how much Ryan thought, he couldn’t find a suitable reason for Director Scott for doing so.

“It can’t be. Ever since my mother was hospitalized, it has always been Director Scott treating her and those medical records. Could there be a problem?”

Elena remembered that if it was not for Director Scott’s brilliant medical skills, her mother would have been gone. So she had no reason to doubt it.

“You are right. But have you thought that only he knows about your mother’s condition? Why would a hospital director personally work for an ordinary patient for such a long time?”

Ryan was sure that there must be something wrong with this Director Scott. Otherwise, how could it not have any effect after such a long time?

Actually Eleanor might have woken up a long time ago. Director Scott had used medicine on her in advance, so when they went to visit again, she had been in a coma. However, Ryan did not tell her about this matter. He was afraid that Elena would think blindly after hearing it.

Even though Ryan didn’t tell her the whole matter, Elena still started to worry. She anxiously grabbed his hand. “How could it be like this? Who on the earth wants to harm my mother? Could such a big matter deceive us for five years? You have to help me investigate. If it’s true, we have to get my mother out as soon as possible.”

Five years… If it was really as Ryan said, how much harm had her mother suffered? Seeing her like this, Ryan pulled her into his arms and comforted her. “Don’t worry. You can’t take pressure now. I will take care of this matter.”

The two of them did not say anything else and returned to the villa. There was no sound coming inside the villa and Mrs. Baker was also not present.

When they walked into the living room, they found an unexpected guest. Tina was sitting arrogantly on the sofa with her crossed.

Elena felt disgusted when she saw this woman. She didn’t know if it was her sickness or she got nauseous when she saw this woman, she went straight to the bathroom on the living room to throw up.

“What happened to my sister-in-law? She suddenly threw up when she was fine. Could she have gotten some kind of illness? Cousin, you have to take care of her. Don’t let anything happen to her.”

Tina’s tone was very harsh. Her eyes were filled with disdain. It was as if she was the mistress of this family. “Where did Mrs. Baker go?” Ryan ignored her. He was worried that this woman would do something alone at home.

“Mrs. Baker went to buy food for my sister-in- law. I heard that my sister-in-law is pregnant. I don’t know if this is true or not, so I came to visit her.”

Tina stood up and looked around. The renovation style of this house was black and white before. But now it was filled with bright colors. The cold tone of the house had changed a lot since Elena come.

“Roman asked you to come?” Ryan did not forget that guy’s wild ambition for his wife. It was inevitable that he would send someone to inquire about the truth of this matter.

“Cousin is still as smart as ever. It seems like my sister-in-law is really pregnant.” Tina silently clenched her fists.

She had liked Ryan before. She knew that it was impossible for her and Ryan to get pregnant. But now hearing the news of Elena getting pregnant, she didn’t feel good.
