Chapter 562 Everyone let out a collective sigh of relief.
Lennonâs dull eyes finally sparked with hope, and the weight on his heart lifted a bit.
Lennon closed his eyes, then opened them, and said earnestly, âThank you, doctor,â
The others were overjoyed, tearfully thanking the doctor repeatedly.
Deandre, a middleâaged man approaching fifty, cried with red eyes, his voice choked. Thank you, doctor. Thank you.â
The doctor nodded and left.
Mariela was wheeled out by several nurses. Lennon looked at her, the pale and unconscious woman, and his heart suddenly ached.
The pain came in waves, wrenching at his heart.
Everyone wanted to go over and see Mariela.
The nurses pushed the bed and shouted, âExcuse us, the patient needs to be transferred to the ICU. No visiting at the moment.â
The crowd moved aside, and the nurses wheeled Mariela toward the ICU.
The heavy, gloomy atmosphere finally lightened.
Some of the ladies had tears in their eyes.
Gia held back her tears.âI knew the heavens would be kind. Ms. Logan is so good, sheâll be okay.â Cayleeâs eyes were redâ
rimmed. She sniffled, âItâs good that sheâs okay. Itâs good.â
Fiona took a deep breath and wiped away a tear.âThank goodness Marie is fine. I canât even imagine what wouldâve happened if she wasnât.â
Gia sobbed, her nose red.âIf anything had happened to Ms. Logan, Iâd feel guilty for the rest of my life. She got hurt saving me.â
Hailie, with bandaged feet, sat on a corridor bench, her eyes also red.âGreat. Ms. Logan is okay.â Haylee didnât cry. She exhaled, and the furrow between her brows eased.
Jaime looked at Lennon and snorted.âLennon, Marie almost died because of you. Stop hurting her!â
Lennon didnât respond.
During those long hours in the emergency room, Lennon had experienced the most ago. oppressive, and selfâblaming moments of his life.
He couldnât argue with Jaime.
Because he thought the same.
98.3 If it werenât for him, why would Marie have caught Nikolasâs eye?
Selfâblame consumed him.
Lennonâs heart felt like it was being mercilessly kneaded, torn, and twisted, causing him intense pain. Deandre looked at Lennon coldly. âLennon, heâs right. Stay away from Marie from now on Stop bringing her harm Lennonâs breath hitched, and his heart ached even more.
