chapter 1929
After having Charmine settle in the ward, the nurse ced an oxygen mask on her and set up the
electrocardiograms, blood pressure monitors, and medical drips.
Charmineid in bed, unmoving. Her breaths were shallow, and it was a painful sight to watch.
Anthony sat by the bedside, and his big hands held onto her cold hands. He looked at her worriedly.
Grandma Bailey gazed at Charmine, just as worried and with reddened eyes.
She dabbed away the tears pooling in her eyes as she feeblymented, "It''s not easy for Charmine to
finally live with us. Now that this happened, how could her life get so difficult? If she doesn''t wake
up...how shall I pass this on to the Jordans?"
It only agonized her the more she thought of Charmine''s fate, and her tears finally fell.
"Ms. Charmine will be fine," said Annabel, standing at the side, sounding determined as she spoke.
"She''ll wake up. She will!"
Hearing everyone talking, Anthony frowned and looked at them. "Everyone can go home for now. I''ll
stay and look after Charmine."
Senior Bailey said, "We have a house full of guests back there. We should get back to let them know."
Grandma Bailey was still so distraught with what had happened and did not want to leave, yet it was
not ideal to stay in the ward, regardless. Without much of a choice, she relented, saying, "Let us know
when she wakes up."
Anthony nodded vaguely.
His eyes did not leave Charmine.
Annabel looked at Charmine sympathetically. She was so worried that she was unable to leave. She
said weakly, "Madam, I''d like to stay here and look after Ms. Charmine. I''m a woman myself, and it''ll be
more convenient to have me stay." i
Annabel had always been weak, but this time, she sounded very positive of herself.
She had to see Charmine wake up.
Seeing how determined she was, Grandma Bailey nodded. "Okay, but do take care of yourself too."
"Okay, I will," said Annabel.
Susan was ready to leave with Grandma Bailey, but as she walked past Annabel, she looked at her
and thought of something. "Annabel," she said,"''e out with me."
Grandma Bailey frowned. "What are you going to say to her?"
Annabel had been nothing but kind, but Susan always liked to worsen her rtionship with Charmine.
"Nothing of importance," replied Susan elegantly, "I just want to tell her how to take good care of
Charmine."
Grandma Bailey was not in the mood, and she did not seem to ce much importance into Susan''s
request. She quickly left with Senior Bailey.
Annabel walked to the alley with Susan. Comment by Be C: alley? hallway? they are in a hospital, or
have they moved outsidepletely? 1
Annabel, at that point, felt despondent and could not rid her concern toward Charmine. She did not
even have the zest to speak, too. "Madam, what would you like to speak to me about?"
Susan looked at her and said, "I don''t get why you’re so upset. If Charmine doesn''t wake up, won’t you
be Mrs. Bailey?" "No, no. I won’t." Annabel shook her head vigorously, head-strong."
Ms.Charmine will live a long life. She''ll wake up safely."
Susan was bbergasted at her response.
How useless!
In that case, she had to use the second way.
Susan looked at her and said, "Do you really want Charmine to wake up?" "Yes!" Annabel did not
hesitate to nod.
Susan then said, "There’s a church on the outskirts of the city. Once you make a wish there and kneel
every three steps you walk, any dream in your mind wille true. If you want Charmine to wake up,
go and give it a go there." 1
Annabel''s dull eyes lit up as she hopefully gasped, Madam, is it true what you said? Really?"
Susan had a mocking look on her face, yet she could still answer earnestly, "Of course. I favor you a
good deal, so why would I lie to you?"
This way, Annabel would gain the old woman''s heart, and even Anthony would be touched by her
kindness.
As long as Charmine did not wake up, she would be able to take her ce!N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
