You Hit My Heart
Chapter 1783: Go Die
Blood gushed out.
Not far away, faintly, Athena's hoarse and exhausted shouts could be
heard, "Joyce, go die! Die!! Die!"
Luther's mind went blank as he pressed his palm against Joyce's
wound. The sticky sensation made his whole body shudder. Joyce was
not like her usual self now; three lives were at stake. His fingers
trembled uncontrollably, unable to steady themselves.
His voice trembled as well. "Joyce, Joyce... How do you feel?"
Watching her getting injured, and the perpetrator being their young
daughter, he had never felt so powerless before. The last time he
experienced such heart-wrenching pain was when he witnessed her fall
off a cliff, that feeling of heartbreak he never wanted to experience
again.
He saw Alisha fainting.
He was worried about his daughter, but he was even more afraid. Afraid
of losing Joyce, afraid that something would happen to the twins in her
womb. There was a moment when he harbored resentment towards
Alisha. If it weren't for saving her, how could things have escalated like
this? Yet, she regarded her as an enemy, repaying kindness with
enmity.
Joyce felt the pain, waves of it coming from her abdomen, and she was
afraid.
The blood flowing out made her thoughts gradually fade away, her mind
no longer clear.
With the remnants of her consciousness, she reached out her hand,
pointing towards Alisha. "Don't... blame the child... She's still young..."
Luther choked up, nodding his head. "Hmm."
At this moment, Reuben carried the unconscious Alisha.
He approached and handed Alisha to Darrin, who was standing nearby.
Anxious, he said, "Joyce is injured. Carry her into the car, and let me
handle it. Luckily, I still have my medical kit. I'll stitch her up first."
"Okay." Luther immediately nodded.
Fortunately, Reuben was a doctor himself, and the nearest hospital was
not close by. If they couldn't stop the bleeding in time, there might be a
real danger to her life.
âI'll give you anesthesia. It takes effect in one minute. I'll stitch while you
endure it," Reuben said, not wasting a moment. After the anesthesia
was injected, he quickly began the stitching.
Frowning during the procedure, he realized that her internal organs
seemed to be damaged. He didn't dare tell Luther, so he performed
temporary stitches. After finishing, he used gauze to apply pressure
and stop the bleeding.
Joyce still had a slight consciousness. She asked in a trembling voice,
"Are my children alright?"
Luther's heart tightened in response. These were his twin sons. He had
even chosen their names: Zuo Tianqi and Xia Zilin. If they saved Alisha
but paid the price of losing the twins, how could he bear it? Even if
Alisha grew up, how would she face all of this?
Moreover, Joyce's life was hanging by a thread.
He didn't dare to think deeply, as the more he thought, the more fearful
he became.
With the vehicle speeding all the way, running red lights, they arrived at
the nearest South City Hospital and stopped in front of the emergency
room.
Darrin had already made the arrangements, and the medical staff was
waiting.
They moved Joyce onto a stretcher and rushed her into the
resuscitation room.
Reuben followed the medical staff. "Let me perform the operation. Let
me in the resuscitation room.â
Luther held onto Reuben's hand, his expression extremely serious.
"Please."
Reuben nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, leave it to me. Also, bring
Alisha in as well. She needs to be disinfected again. After I take care of
her, I'll transfer her to the intensive care unit for intravenous fluids."
"Okay." Darrin had been holding onto Alisha all this time. Now he put
her down on another medical bed and watched as the medical staff
pushed Alisha and Joyce into the resuscitation room.
Luther wanted to go in.
Darrin suddenly stopped him.
"Mr. Warner, it's better if you don't go in. In case of any sudden
situation, they need you here to command.â Darrin advised, as he
couldn't bear to see Luther lose his composure.
Since going in wouldn't make any difference and couldn't change the
outcome, it would be better to wait outside quietly.
Luther clenched and released his fist, finally smashing it against the
wall. A sense of powerlessness permeated him. He had underestimated
the negative thoughts Athena had instilled into Alisha for so long. He
never expected it to have such a great impact. Although this operation
was successful, as Luther knew all too well, the timing was not right.
Their hasty actioncreated an irreversible change in Alisha's mindset. It
had resulted in the current harm, hurting the person he loved most. On
one side was Joyce, on the other was Alisha, both causing him
immeasurable heartache.
Suddenly, he felt a hot stream flowing from his ears and nose at the
same time.
It was blood, he knew.
His mind was in chaos, and the toxins in his body became more active,
causing the bleeding.
Darrin saw it and exclaimed, "Mr. Warner, you're bleeding!"
He quickly asked a nurse for gauze and handed it to Luther to wipe
away the blood.
Luther took it, his expression numb, wiping away the blood as if he had
already become accustomed to it. Luckily, Joyce didn't see it.
Otherwise, she would worry again.
Darrin watched on the side, knowing full well about Luther's poisoning
and that he only had three months left to live. But when he saw Luther's
ears and nose unexpectedly bleeding without warning, he was still
shocked.
He couldn't help but worry.
What should be done in the future?
