Chapter 931


    Neil was sent into the VIP ward after he came out of the operation theater. There was arge window in


    the ward, and Aurelia sat outside of it, looking at Neil lying quietly in bed through it. A type of pain that


    no one knew of was hidden in her faint expression.


    It was now that she understood that one was unable to react under great pain—unable to cry,ugh,


    speak, or move. She could only sit here stiffly like a log and watch him, afraid to miss a second or


    minute.


    The scene before Neil passed out kept reying in her mind.


    …


    He was covered in blood and struggled with all his might to hold her hand before he pulled out a


    diamond ring with much difficulty to slide it down her finger.


    “I-I propose…” Neil had blood in his mouth too, and he was barely audible. “Aurelia, don’t be scared… I


    won’t die. I’m going to marry you…”


    He was barely coherent, and Aurelia’s heart felt like it was sliced.


    …


    Aurelia looked down at her hands. The bloodstains had dried to a dark red, and it was all his blood. He


    had actually lost so much blood!


    Aurelia bit her lips, wanting to cry but was unable to. She looked at Neil in the ward again, and the


    corner of her lips twitched after a long time. She cracked a smile.


    “Uncle, you’re an award-winning actor… You’re good at acting, right?Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “You must be acting with me now?”


    Cordelia could not help tearing up. The others were saddened as well, not knowing how to console

    Carter was the surgeon for the surgery. The bullet retrieval was a sess, but Neil had lost too much


    blood. Even with a timely blood transfusion, he could not regain consciousness so soon. The longer he


    was unconscious, though, the worse the situation was.


    Carter came over and sighed softly, telling everyone, “You can go back for a rest first. Neil will get the


    best care here.”


    Zephyr asked in worry, “When will he wake up?”


    Carter nced at him and lowered his head. “I don’t know…”


    “How could you not know!?” Rowan jumped. “A simple surgery, and this is what you’ve amounted to!


    You’re a shame to the Irwins!”


    “Dad!” Carter felt wronged. “We have different expertise! You might not know what I know!”


    “What?” Rowan red at him.


    “Y-you won’t know anyway!” Carter glossed over. “Please go back. Crowding the ce won’t help Neil!”


    “Kid, what are you up to?” asked Rowan.


    Carter’s heart skipped a beat. His father knew him well. The pufferfish was not just sharp with his


    spikes—his eyes were sharp too!


    It was just that Neil had never asked anything of him, only that.


    Cartermented inwardly. He was caught in a dilemma!


    “Alright, alright, go back!” Carter pushed his father out, muttering, “You don’t know about this! You have


    no idea!”


    Cordelia and Zephyr exchanged a nce, feeling that something was amiss too. However, Carter


    divulged nothing and merely told them to rest assured softly.


    As people left one after another, Aurelia remained.


    Carter approached her. “Your Highness, go back for some rest too. Neil will be fine here.”


    Aurelia looked sad and gave no response.


    Carter coughed. “Uh… There’s something I have to pass you.”


    Aurelia jolted and saw Carter pull a ring out of his pocket. The diamond on it glimmered incandescently.


    “Neil was momentarily conscious when he was sent it and passed this to me after entering the


    operation theater… He wanted to say something but didn’t manage to. I think this ring must be


    important to both of you, so I brought it out to hand it to you.”
