Chapter 478
Matthew gazed at Valerie, seeing her covered in injuries, which pained his heart deeply. He quickly pulled her into a hug, checking her condition. Thankfully, she wasnât badly fractured. Matthew then lified Valerie and gently placed her to the side, using his body heat to warm her up.
âVallie, can you hear me? Charles, Charles, is the ambulance here!? he shouted urgently.
Valerie snuggled to open her eyes. âManhew, is that you!â
Its me.
Valerie! Stay with meâ Matthewâs voice trembled with concern, his heart wrenching at the sight of her frail form.
After all this time knowing him, this was the first ume sheâd heard him sound so anxious,
Valerie gared at the approaching face, noticing how the dream image overlapped with reality. She couldnât help but furrow her brow tightly. Then, a bitter smile crossed her face. Matthew, is it really you? I must be dreaming, arenât I?â
âItâs not a dream, Vallie. Letâs get you home. Stay with me. Donât fall asleep he urged.
Matthew had never been so scared of Valerie leaving him as he was today. He carried her down the mountain, each step a struggle. Along the way, Charles saw Matthew trumbling and quickly went to his aid. He also signaled to those below to hurry with the ambulance.
In the ambulance, Mathew wasted no time in delegating tasks. âCharles, watch over Ruth, find Ethan, and search the entire mountain!â
When they hurned over, they found only Valerie at the edge of the cliff. Matthew couldnât imagine Valerie had climbed there herself. The person who posed as his ally, took Valerie away, and tried to harm her, must have fled.
Charlesâs expression turned cold when he heard this. He quickly nodded in agreement and left.
Matthew frowned and looked back at the bed where Valerie laid unconscious. His heart ached. The medical team worked quickly to give Valerie first aid. Their initial assessment was troublingâshe had lost a lot of blood and was running a fever, showing resistance to their medication.
âValerie, donât worry. Youâre safe now. Just hold on, Weâre almost there!â he comforted her gently. Seeing Valerieâs furrowed brows and dry lips. Matthewâs heart sank.
The nurse noticed Valerie clutching her lower abdomen with both hands and gently moved her hand to start an IV drip. Valerie appeared slightly dehydrated
However, Valerie held on tightly. The nurse grew suspicious and asked, âIs the patient pregnant?â
Matthew was dumbfounded. âPregnant?â
âYeah, sheâs been shielding her stomach and not letting us
do a blood test at the hospitalâ the nurse explained
ng us touch it. Also, her abdomen looks swollen. I suspect she might be pregnant. Weâll need to
Matthew was stunned. Valerie is pregnant? he kept asking himself the same question
He felt uneasy and called Valerie several times.
But the persisted in protecting her stomach, a subconscious reaction. Even if she fainted, she couldnât bear the thought of harming the child. It appeared highly likely that she was pregnant.
Soon after, the ambulance raced to the hospital. Ten minutes later, the test results confirmed in Valerie was pregnant.
Manfarw was stunned by the news. It hit himâhe was going to have his own child, to be a father. Valerie had truly given him a family. Matthewâs heart filled with joy as he gazed at Valerie on the bed. However, when he placed his hand on her forehead and felt the warmth, worry
His joy was quickly overshadowed by worry. Valerieâs condition was far from good.
In the emergency room, the doctor turned to Matthew. The patientâs in critical condition. Sheâs pregnant and running a high fever. Weâve tried conservative treatment, but things donât look promising. Her body is very weak, and weâre concerned the fever might affect the fetus?
Matthewâs joy a completely vanished. Her pregnancy would complicate her treatment even more. He felt a deep guilt, knowing he hadnât protected her and had let this happen
The nurse bandaged the wound on Valerieâs hand first. Once the blood was cleaned up, Manhew saw I looked like sharp objects. Her face was pale, and she appeared so weak. It was hard to fathom the danger she had faced.
her hand was covered in cuts from what
âGet the whole hospital involved and bring in Dr. Locke, the best from Kranson City. urgently. âMy wife is frail. Whatever it takes, we have to save her!â
If needed, let her take charger Matthew told the doctor
Chapter 478
The doctor looked at Matthewâs expression, sensing his concern, but still said. âWeâll give it our best shot
Valerie lay on the bed, and because of her pregnancy, they had to be careful with the medication. Combined with the significant blood loss, her condition was quite serious.
At that moment, Olivia, Katherine, Julian, and the others rushed over one by one.
