Chapter 412: He Is Not Answering Her Call
Crystal frowned. What was he laughing at this time?
He seemed to want to talk. The breath made the oxygen mask white.
Crystal whispered, “Don’t talk, you need oxygen, your breath is very weak now.”
Eric’s hand without the infusion raised a little...
“Don’t move, didn’t the doctor tell you not to move?” Crystal stopped his hand from lifting up. Although this hand was not injured, it might involve other wounds.
Eric suddenly reversed his hand and held her hand tightly in his palm.
“You’re awake,” Crystal laughed in a low voice, “Don’t worry, you will be fine.”
Eric just stared at her deeply.
Crystal bit her lower lip hard, “You have a very lucky star, and I guess you are not that easy to die.”
Outside the glass, Nathan’s back stiffened with hatred lingering. He was standing there, watching Crystal leaning over, staring at Eric so close. Her eyes were gentle, and the way she spoke to him was also extremely gentle...
Such kind of Crystal temperament was someone whom he had never seen before.
She was so cautious that Eric seemed to be the glass that she was afraid to break.
Nathan watched coldly for ten minutes, then turned and left lonely.
The bell in the ICU suddenly rang, and the doctor picked it up.
The nurse’s voice came, “The gentleman just now ordered before leaving that Mrs. Bush is pregnant, she couldn’t stand for too long. Let her sit and talk to the patient.”
The doctor immediately moved a chair for Crystal.
“You can talk with the patient for half an hour and then let him rest.”
“Okay, thank you.” Crystal sat down and asked uncertainty, “He should have passed the dangerous period, right?”
“Yes.”
“Nice.” The big stone in Crystal’s heart finally fell to the ground again. She unconsciously glanced outside the ICU.
The man who had been in front of the glass was gone...
Crystal didn’t think much about it, turned back, and tried to find some topics to tell Eric, hoping that he would get better soon.
Crystal took out her hand, feeling incomprehensible in her heart, turned around, and asked, “When will he fully recover?”
“He is very weak now, but he won’t get unconscious again. He should recover naturally after sleeping for a while. I will let you know immediately once it happens.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Crystal put off the sterile clothes and returned to the ward without seeing Nathan.
It was already late now. Where did he go? Seeing the messy wool cut in half on the bed and broken needles, Crystal sighed and prepared to throw it into the trash can.
But she suddenly saw several bloody paper balls in it....
There were also dark bloodstains on the edge of the trash can.
Crystal frowned, squatted to the bin, and looked at it. There were still a few drops of blood on the ground.
Crystal felt heart-wrenching for a while. Later she was suddenly a little angry!
Why couldn’t he let her have a little peace for a while?
She could easily tell that the blood was coughed out by Nathan. He was not good to himself at all. He hadn’t taken care of his stomach problems, nor did he take medicine and his meals on time.
Crystal pulled the door and looked at the bodyguard standing at the door, “Who can contact your young master?”
The bodyguard shook his head, “Only Vic has the young master’s contact... But we can contact Vic.”
Crystal took the phone that was connected.
It sounded very noisy there...
Vic’s respectful voice came, “What’s wrong, Miss Smith?”
“Give Nathan the phone.”
“Young master has ordered, no one can disturb him without his instruction.”
“Also including me?”
“Yes, it’s the Young Master’s order.” Vic coughed. “The young master is in a bad mood now. You’d better leave him alone.”
Was he in a bad mood? Would love always make people’s minds so small as pinholes? Nathan had been losing his temper for no reason recently.
Crystal rubbed her forehead, “Why are you so noisy over there? Aren’t you in a bar?”
“No.”
“Fine.” How could Nathan drink more in such a condition?
“We are in a high-level club.” How would the young master go to a low-level place like a bar?”
Crystal was speechless, “...” In her concept, the club was no different from the bar.
“Miss Smith, do you have anything else?”
“He has a serious stomach problem, how can you let him drink more?”
“Young master is in a very bad mood now,” Vic said helplessly, “I’m just a subordinate, I can’t persuade him, and he doesn’t listen to me, so I can do nothing.”
Crystal’s heart sank, “Give him the phone, and I will talk to him.”
“Miss Smith, the Young Master, has locked the door, no one can get in. I knocked on the door, but he refused to open it...”
When Nathan became stubborn, he would be too difficult to deal with.
“Knock on the door again, tell him I am calling.” Crystal bit her lower lip, only hoping he would answer the phone when he heard it was her.
“Wait a moment.”
Then there was a knocking sound with some noise, caught in the background of Vic at the other end.
“Young Master, Miss Smith is calling.”
“Young Master?” Vic couldn’t hear any response from inside, so he had to continue to shout, “Young Master, Miss Smith said that she has something urgent to tell you.”
“Miss Smith, I have knocked on the door several times, but there was no response. It’s probably because the Young Master is really in a bad mood, so he doesn’t want to...”
“You mean he doesn’t want to open the door?” Crystal took a strong breath. She rarely called Nathan, but he would usually answer it as long as she called. No matter what he was doing, he would pick it up immediately.
“I think Young Master will go back when he calms down. Miss Smith, you don’t need to worry too much.”
Was it because Eric had been awake that his mood changed so dramatically?
“Fine, take good care of him. Don’t let him drink too much. It’s not good for his health. After going back to the hospital, let him go for a checkup.”
It was not the first time Nathan had drunk so much, so it wouldn’t matter if he had to spend more time. It would probably be nice to let him have a way to vent.
Crystal felt so overwhelmed between these two men that she almost couldn’t breathe.
In the middle of the night, she tossed around on the bed, suddenly awakened from a nightmare. Her face was full of tears, and the pillow was totally wet.
She wiped the tears on her face with the back of her hand as her heart kept aching.
She couldn’t remember what kind of dream it was. During breaking up with Nathan, she had woken up from nightmares almost every day, which seemed to have become her habit.
But this time was different. The pain was desperate, and her heart was being strangled, which made her quite scared.
An extremely bad and strong hunch struck. Crystal couldn’t say what it was in detail. Still, her heart suddenly became flustered and nervous, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.
She immediately pressed the service bell because Nathan had arranged special nurses to take care of her 24 hours a day in turns.
The special nurse and the servant came over quickly, “Miss Smith, what’s the matter?”
“Is Master Bush all right?”
“He is fine. There are nurses in the ICU to watch him the whole night. Everything will be fine, don’t worry, Miss Smith.”
“I’ll check it out.” Crystal was still worried.
That kind of terrible heartache just now was too weird.
The nurse ran out and returned soon, “Miss Smith, Master Bush is fine. The nurse said that he is in a stable condition, and she will call you the first time if he has any problems.”
Crystal leaned on the head of the bed, probably she had been too nervous. Looking out the window, she suddenly realized that Nathan hadn’t returned yet?
She asked the bodyguard for Vic’s phone number and called him again.
The ringtone of the phone was over, but no one answered it.
As the waiting time went by, Crystal’s heart became more and more depressed, as if she almost had suffocation.
When it finally came for the third time, the phone was finally connected.
Crystal relaxed slightly, “It’s me.”
“Miss Smith?”
“Why didn’t you answer the phone for so long? Didn’t I tell you to watch him and not let him drink so much? It’s almost three o’clock now, why haven’t you come back? As his personal subordinate, you just let him do whatever he wants?”
