Chapter 371


    The light on the emergency operating theatre of Chatterton Town''s Military Hospital was still on.


    Karen Daly was waiting anxiously outside the operating theatre.


    During the long wait, Karen had been biting her lips. Her teeth had cut into her lips and blood had


    seeped into her mouth.


    She clenched her fists and her nails sank deeply into the flesh of her palms causing them to bleed


    too.


    It seemed that she was using this method to punish herself. At the same time, she wanted to calm


    herself down so that she would not be so worried and afraid.


    She had to believe that Kevin Kyle would be fine and nothing would happen to him...


    No matter how critical the situation was, she believed that Kevin would definitely make it through


    and return to little Karen and her.


    No matter how Karenforted herself, She couldn''t banish the fear and worry in her heart.


    So long as the operation theatre''s light didn''t go out, and the operation was still on-going; before the


    doctor would tell her that Kevin was safe, she couldn''t stop worrying.


    After receiving the news, George Ken rushed over and saw Karen Daly standing outside operation


    theatre like a stone statue. Her eyes fixed on the light above the door without blinking.


    "Karen—" George walked over to her side and hugged her tightly. "Don''t worry, Matthew is blessed.


    I''m sure everything will be fine."


    Karen turned around and smiled gently at George. She nodded and said, "Yes, I know."


    George knew Karen was actually worried, but she didn''t want to show it and he didn''t know what to


    say tofort her.


    He tightened his hold, hoping that he could give her some strengths on behalf of Kevin and


    apany her to wait for Kevin toe out of the operating theatre.


    After locking up Warren and his men, Neil Brown also came hurriedly. He didn''t look good and didn''t


    go forward to say hello to Karen and the others. He just stood in the corridor and smoked.


    He smoked one cigarette after another, until a nurse came over and said politely, "Sir, smoking is


    forbidden in the hospital."


    Neil Brown shot a look at the nurse and the nurse ran away. However, he still put out the cigarette.


    His face had darkened and he looked horrible.


    He wondered how Mia Kyle was doing.


    He was not sure if Mia would be able to get over this.


    He was obviously here to visit Kevin, but his mind was thinking of Mia, and he thought of her lonely


    and arrogant figure when she turned around and left.


    Master Perth was initially her fiance. If that man could take care of her, she might get over this


    matter quickly.


    But at the thought of Mia together with that man, Neil clenched his fists, making a crackling sound


    from his knuckles.


    Damn it!


    He cursed silently, blue veins showed on his forehead and his expression looked extremely scary.


    At the same time, the atmosphere in the operation theatre was even tenser.


    Although the bullet did not injure Kevin''s vital body parts, but he had been holding on for a long time


    and lost too much blood. He was in a seriousa and it was very likely that he would never wake


    up again.


    Keviny on the cold and bloody operating table, unconscious. His white shirt, which was soaked


    with red, had already been taken off and thrown aside.


    Several doctors and nurses surrounded the operating table, and the chief doctor was trying to find a


    way to take out the bullet...


    Time passed by quickly. One hour had passed, then two hours... The people waiting outside the


    operation theatre grew more anxious.


    The ticking sound from the clock on the wall could be heard clearly. Every tick seemed to knock on


    Karen''s heart and suffocate her.


    "Karen, let''s go and sit for a while." Kevin''s operation had been going on for a few hours and Karen


    had been standing at the door throughout the operation. George was worried that if she went on like


    this, by the time Kevin came out of the operation, she would pass out.


    "I don''t need." She wanted to be closest to Kevin and guard him, to let him know that she had


    always been by his side.


    George let out a helpless sigh. He had no choice but to apany her to stand and wait.


    After an unknown period of time, the operation theatre''s light finally went out, followed by the doctor


    coming out from the operation theatre.


    Karen wanted to ask about Kevin’s condition when she saw the doctor, but when she opened her


    mouth to speak, she was too nervous to say a word.


    She swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously. Then she heard the doctor said, "Mrs. Kyle, we took


    out the bullet from Director Kyle sessfully, but because he had lost too much blood, he is still in a


    seriousa at this time. We need to send Director Kevin to the intensive care unit for a 24 hours


    observation. If within the 24 hours, he doesn''t..."


    "No." Karen suddenly interrupted the doctor and said firmly, "There is no if. He will definitely wake


    up."


    The doctor couldn''t say anything further. He nodded and said, "You need to change into sterilized


    clothes to enter the intensive care unit. Mrs. Kyle, please go with the nurse to get ready."

    Kevin was lying on the white hospital bed, his eyes were tightly closed and his lips were so pale that


    there was not even a trace of blood... He was lying there quietly, his breathing so weak that one


    could hardly feel it.


    Karen sat beside his bed and looked at him quietly... She could not help but think of the memories


    of their past.


    He had always said to her, "Karen, don''t be afraid, I''m here."


    He always said to her, "Karen, I am your husband."


    Whenever something happened, he would always consider her first.


    Karen felt immensely blessed that after being betrayed, she had met Kevin, be his wife, and


    given birth to their child.


    Thinking of the past, Karen grabbed Kevin Kyle''s hand and murmured, "Kevin, I''m here. I''ll always


    be by your side. Don''t be afraid."


    But he did not give her any response andy there quietly. He was so quiet as though his soul had


    drifted away, leaving only an empty body lying here.


    "Kevin..." Karen suddenly choked with sobs when calling his name.


    He was such as fool, she was the person who was supposed to be lying here, not him.


    ...


    Master Perth drove Mia around Chatterton Town in his red sports car. They finally arrive at the


    highest peak of the Chatterton Town, the Wollerton Mountain.


    He got out of the car and opened the door for Mia. He said, "Let''s go. We shall stand at the highest


    ce in Chatterton Town if we climb a little further. You can stand at the highest ce and scream


    all the frustrations that you''ve been holding in out."


    Without Mia''s consent, Master Perth dragged her and began to walk. The mountain pathway was


    made by humans and it was very long and rugged. Every step felt like stepping into a pit.


    Master Perth held Mia by the waist with one hand. Mia pped his hand away and said, "Take your


    hand away. Did I say you can touch my waist?"


    "Ha..." Master Perth withdrew his hand with a smile and said, "That''s right. This is the Mia Kyle I


    know."


    This afternoon, he took her around Chatterton Town. She sat in the passenger''s seat and didn''t say


    anything throughout the journey. She stared out of the window in a daze and he didn''t know what


    she was thinking about.
