Chapter 51 Do You Have a Conscience?
Boom!
Yvette heard a dull loud noise behind her.
Yvette turned back hesitantly.
Lance lay on the ground, motionless, Yvetteâs heart skipped a beat.
She looked at her hands. There was no way she could be that strong.
Obviously, fleeing would be the wiser choice for now.
Yet finally, sensibility got the better of her. Yvette quickly walked over to Lance.
His handsome face was now sickly pale, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
She pushed him lightly. âLance⦠Lanceâ¦â
He did not react.
Yvette was completely flustered. Tears rolled down her face as she reached out to stroke his face. âLan ce, whatâs wrong with you? Wake up. You are scaring meâ¦â
She squatted down and tried to help him up. However, she felt something sticky on the back of his neck .
The smell of blood was getting thicker. She reached out.
Her fair hands were dyed red with blood!
The blood⦠It was because of that stickâ¦
âBlah!â
She held back the urge of vomiting and got up to call someone over. She shouted, âHere! I need help!â
Marvin ran in and was stunned to see the man on the ground.
The next second, Marvin ordered calmly, âAsk Professor Walter to come over.â Alfonso Walter was his colleague.
Soon after, Lance was pushed into the emergency room.
Yvette stood outside the door and waited. She was suffering.
Tears streamed down her face. She couldnât stop crying.
She thought, he was bleeding so much that even his neck was wet. Yet I didnât noticeâ¦.
In an instant, she had mixed feelings, including frustration, regret, and selfâblame.
She thought, I should have knownâ¦
Get Bonus Back then, he did not hug me as readily as usual, and the reason for his being silent all the way in the c ar was that he was not feeling well.
But I was immersed so much in my world. I didnât notice that something was wrong with him at all.
I didnât care if he was sick after being hit with a stickâ¦
She patted her head hard.
She muttered to herself, âYvette, you are so selfish!â
She felt that a century had passed. Finally, the door to the operating room was opened.
Marvin walked out, and Yvette immediately rushed over.
âProfessor Icahn, how is Lance?â
âRelax. Heâs fine.â
Yvette relaxed instantly and asked, âThen why did he faint?â
Lance was strong. A single strike should not have caused him to faint.
Marvin solemnly said, âWhat hit him?â
âIt was a stick. Itâs about this thickâ¦â
Yvette gestured.
Marvin frowned. âHe was in a coma from a blood clot on the brain. He is alright now, but he was attacked in a very dangerous spot. If he had been
hit any higher, Iâm afraid he wouldnât have woken up.â
Yvette felt that she couldnât breathe. She was so upset.
She found it hard to picture. What should she do if Lance never woke up?
âFortunately, that was just a presumption. Heâll be fine soon with some proper rest,â Marvin comforted h er.
Suddenly, he seemed to have remembered something and said, âHowever, it seems to me that the wou nd was caused by an iron rod, instead of a wooden stick.â
Hearing Marvinâs words, Yvette suddenly remembered something.
When Lance kicked the servant, the sound of the wooden stick hitting the ground was very crispâ¦
Indeed. It sounded more like an iron stick!
Now that she thought about it, the feeling she had at that time was right. Emilie wanted her and the baby to die!
She did not expect Emilie to be so merciless.
Chapter 51 Do You Have a Conscience?
Get Bonus Seeing Yvetteâs expression, Marvin asked her, âWhy donât you take a rest?â
âNo need. I want to be with Lance. Thank you, Professor leahn.â
Marvin looked at Yvetteâs back and shook his head.
He thought, itâs probably fate that brings these two alike people together. Neither of their hearts matche s their mouths Lance was laying on the bed.
Lanc wearing a hospital gown. His right shoulder and the back of his head were wrapped in gauze.
When he slept, his natural domineering aura dissipated, and even the contours of his face softened.
Yvette couldnât help but reach out and use her fingertips to stroke the outline of his handsome brows, nose bridge, and lower jaw.
She thought, fate is so unfair. Every part of his body is exquisite beyond imagination.
Her hand somehow reached his Adamâs apple. It was something that she had longed for a long time.
The curve of Lanceâs Adamâs apple was very sexy, making his Adamâs apple look like a towering peak.
In the past, when they were in bed, she was always wellâbehaved and did not dare to be impudent.
Now, she suddenly felt that since she was going to divorce, she might as well get handsy.
His Adamâs apple under her fingertips suddenly moved.
Before Yvette could retract her hand, Lance had already opened his eyes.
Their gazes collided.
His pupils were as black as gems. When he looked at her, she felt that she was sucked in by a black ho le.
Yvette instantly tensed up.
She wanted to retract her fingers, but he grabbed her hand.
âWhat are you sneaking around for?â
Lanceâs voice was cold and cheerless, not showing any signs of fatigue from just waking up.
âThere was a bug,â Yvette blurted out, nervous.
âA bug?â
âYes, I brushed it away for you.â
Yvette lied seriously. Since she was so tensed up, she failed to notice the hand that was holding hers.
âI sec.â
Get Bonus Yvette just breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lance raise his hand to ring the bell. She hurriedly st opped him.
âWhat do you want to do? Let me.â
Lance was indifferent. He pulled his lips. âGo and ask if the cleaners are doing their job properly. Why a re there bugs in the VIP ward?â
Yvetteâs face was burning, and she froze for a second. Then she said, âMaybe I saw it wrong. It was not Let it slide.â
Her voice was soft, and she said pitifully.
Then she changed the subject. âAre you still feeling unwell? Where?â
âEverywhere.â
âThen Iâll call the doctor to come over.â
Yvette immediately was about to get up, but Lanceâs grip tightened. She was caught off guard and poun on Lance.
He trembled slightly.
Yvette quickly wanted to get up, but she couldnât move.
âA doctor wonât be necessary. Come up and accompany me.â
His voice sounded above her head, and she couldnât tell his emotions.
âAhâ¦â Yvette widened her eyes in confusion.
His voice was clear and cold as he said, âAre you going to sit there and sleep?â
Yvette got what he meant, but she still couldnât help but blush, and she stuttered a little.
âI⦠Iâm not sleepy. If Iâm sleepy, Iâll change shifts with Frankie and tell him to be here.â
âYvette.â
Lance was still angry, and his voice was flat and cold.
âDo you have a conscience?â
His eyes were dark, and the condemnation they contained almost enveloped Yvette.
Yvette agreed that she was responsible for what had happened to him, so she gave in.
âIâm not sleepy yet.â
Seeing that she found an excuse not to get on the bed, Lance snorted coldly, âAre you afraid Iâll do some Gel Bonus.
to you? Seems that you think highly of me. Youâve given me too much credit!â
His words made Yvette feel so embarrassed that she just wanted to vanish.
She stammered, âNo, Iâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, he pulled her closer and said, âYou want me to carry you up?â
Their breaths intertwined, and Yvette blushed.
âNo need for that. I can manage it.â
He exerted force in his hands and held Yvette. She got onto the bed easily.
The bed in the VIP ward was very big. It was just a bit smaller than the one at home. Lance wrapped he âMaybe a little distance would be better,â Yvette suggested, afraid of affecting his wound.
âAre we too close?â
Lance lowered his eyes and touched the tip of her nose with his tall nose. âThis is close,â he said in a ho Yvetteâs face turned red again. Just as she was about to speak, he had already kissed her lips.
He used the tip of his tongue to lick the edge of her lips and then let go of her. His voice was magnetic. â
