Chapter 530: Lost sight
Secretly The Billionaire Boss
âMiss Avery has woken up,'â the doctor announced.
Grey went mute for a moment. âSeriously?â
âYes, she is. I had to call you immediately, though sheâs taking a nap currently but sheâs successfully out of the coma,â the doctor explained.
Grey released a sigh of relief. âThank you so much, Doctor. I will see you when I come around,â he assured.
âAlright, Mr. Grey. Talk to you later,â he muttered and the line went off.
Grey dropped the car and a wide smile spread across his face. He was so happy about the news. He didnât expect Avery to leave the coma so soon. He was overjoyed about it.
âIs everything alright?â
Grey nodded once. âYes, everything is fine. Letâs toast to the great future ahead.â
They all burst out laughing.
Grey got to the hospital so early the next day because he wanted to see Avery and be assured that everything was alright.
And he also wanted to see the doctor and make sure everything was alright with her. So, he was still scared somehow because of the impairment that the doctors already told him.
He went towards Averyâs room immediately. He wanted to see if she was awake.
âDoctor!â A feminine yelled suddenly as a lady raced past Grey.
Grey regarded the lady for a moment before he shrugged it off and moved towards the room.
âNo! Whatâs happening!â A soft, yet familiar voice screamed suddenly.
Grey didnât need anyone to tell him whose voice it was. It was undoubtedly Averyâs. So, he raced towards the room.
He hesitated the moment he was inside. He dodged quickly as a pillow came flying toward his side.
His eyes widened as he regarded the room for a moment. There was Avery in the middle of the room and three nurses were standing a bit away from her.
âWhat have you done to me!â Avery yelled in anger. âWhat have you done!â She screamed and threw another pillow at the nurses.
âCalm down, Miss Avery. You have to stay calm.â
âYes,â another nurse chimed in quickly. âThe doctor will soon be here. He will find a solution to it soon, Iâm so sure of it!â She tried her best to pacify Avery.
Avery pulled to a sudden stop and crouched on the floor. She held her hands over her ears for a moment and screamed in agony.
âWhereâs my eyes? Why canât I see anything? What have you done to me?â She sobbed quietly.
Greyâs heart melted at the sight of her. He couldnât imagine the pain she was going through at that moment.
Were the eyes what the doctor spoke of? How was Avery supposed to live without eyes?
âNo, you have to give back my eyes. I have to see!â Avery screamed again. She stretched out for something, and her hand caught a vase. She took it with both hands and threw it in any direction. The vase smashed on the wall and shattered into pieces.
Grey hurried closer to him. âAvery?â He called softly.
Avery didnât answer and instead, continued to sob.
âAvery,â Grey called her again and tried to hug her.
Avery fought with him. âI want my sight back! I want it back! No!â She yelled.
Grey pulled her into a hug forcefully. Avery went calm but continued to sob.
âAvery, Iâm so sorry. Iâm really sorry,â Grey said truthfully and stroked her hair. Actually, he felt a pang of sadness at it. He wondered if Avery would ever be able to forgive him for making her come to Jacksonville.
âIâm blind,â Avery said, amidst sobs. âI canât see anything. I really canât. Please, help me. Iâm in darkness,â Avery mumbled and pulled back slightly.
Grey watched her for a moment, as the tears streamed down her face. He felt pain crash into him.
âIâm so sorry, Avery. I am,â he muttered and wiped the tears off with the tip of his fingers. âI promised to restore it. Please, donât cry anymore,â he stroked her back slightly.
Avery sobbed the more. âMy head hurts so much. Why does my head hurt so much?â
In the next few minutes, after Avery had calmed down. Grey was able to go and see the doctor.
After eating, Avery was given sleeping drugs and a painkiller because she kept saying she was in pain.
Asides, the doctor didnât want to give her the space to think.
âWelcome, Mr. Grey.â
Grey nodded once. âThank you. So, about the impairment?â
âWell, like I told you earlier. We can only know about the impairment after she had woken up. And it has now been confirmed that the injury has only affected the ears. All other organs are working perfectly,â
he explained.
Grey released a sigh. âYou did say that there is something you could do about it.â
âYes, Mr. Grey. We will have to perform another surgery on her. Letâs just hope it gets better.â
Grey released a sigh.
Giovanni hesitated as he stared out through the window. A lot of things were going through his mind at that moment. Grey played him so much this past week and he had been thinking of how to get back at him.
The door opened suddenly and one of Giovanniâs men walked inside.
âTruly, Herculesâs men attacked yesterday and Jimmy was taken. Mark also went with him,â he revealed.
Giovanni nodded once. âThat was why he lured me out. Itâs currently his time to shine but I have to think of something very fast.â
âWhat should we do, boss? Get Jimmy back and Mark back?â
âNo,â Giovanni turned to look at him. He regarded him for a moment as if the answers were showing on his face. âThe King of the world would need to choose his secretary soon. I want you to get across to one of the special members, the one on our side, and get me the list of the potential secretary.â
The man bowed slightly. âAlright boss.â âWe will need to do something very fast before it gets worse.
Greyâs new secretary would be the death of him.â
