âWhen will she wake up?â Mickâs voice echoed in the hospital room.
âUm⦠she should wake up in a few hours at the latest,â the doctor replied.
âAnd how many hours exactly?â the icy voice carried a hint of displeasure.
âIt shouldnât be more than five hours. Sheâll wake up within five hours,â the doctor answered cautiously, heart pounding like thunder.
After all, this was someone he couldnât afford to offend!
Once the medical staff left, Mick sat by Nancyâs bedside.
She looked like a fragile object in her coma, making him feel heartbroken.
Yes, heartbroken!
He was heartbroken for this woman.
Mickâs eyelashes trembled slightly as he gently stroked her pale cheek, âNancy, I think I might really like you.â
I rushed to the hospital as soon as I heard about her accident because I like her.
My worry for her is also because of my feelings for her.
Time was passing by second by second, but every minute felt like torture for him.
Before Nancy woke up, Mickâs subordinates had already submitted all the information about the car accident to him in writing.
This information was more detailed than what the police and Mick were previously told.
It even clearly stated when Nancy entered and left the Schultz family, and that Clarissa drove out of the Schultz family five minutes after Nancy left.
As a result of the accident, Clarissaâs car hit Nancy, who fell into a coma. Clarissa was unharmed, so after making a statement at the police station, the Schultz family paid bail and returned home.
âFind a lawyer to invalidate Clarissaâs bail and have her detained,â Mick instructed his subordinates.
Nancy was still lying in the hospital bed, so how could the person who hit her be allowed to be out on bail at home?
Did the accident really happen as Clarissa stated in her statement, that Nancy suddenly ran out? Or was there another reason?
But no matter what, he didnât want to let the person who hurt her get away with it!
At this moment, he was very clear that he would not allow anyone else to harm this woman!
When Nancy woke up, it was already dark outside, and the hospital room was only lit by a dim yellow light.
What she saw was a strange ceiling and⦠Mickâs face.
âYouâ¦howâ¦â she murmured, but was interrupted by the other person.
âYouâre awake. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?â he asked with concern.
âIt hurtsâ¦â she instinctively said, raising her hand to touch her head.
He quickly held her hand gently. âDonât scratch. You have bandages on your head. Iâll call the doctor to check on you.â
After speaking, Mick pressed the call button.
After a moment, medical staff came to the ward.
After examining Nancy, the doctor confirmed that there was no major problem, but she could only drink a small amount of water for now. She could only have some liquid food after another 6 hours.
She also had many bruises, abrasions, and sprains on her body, which needed to be treated with medicine every day. It would take some time for her to recover.
After the medical staff left, Mick turned to look at the person.
lying on the bed, only to find her staring at him stupidly.
âWhat happened in the car accident?â Mick asked.
He just wanted to hear the truth from her own mouth.
