Chapter 304 – After the One-Night Stand with a Heartless Billionaire

Wayne realized at that point that he couldn’t wait any longer. He immediately stood up and dashed out the door without even grabbing his jacket.

Meanwhile, Gabe had just walked out of Wayne’s house and gotten into his car.

Then Wayne opened the backseat door and said in a hurry, “Take me to the hospital.”

When they arrived at the hospital, the emergency room was packed. A two-car collision on the overpass caused many car accidents, resulting in many injuries because it had snowed a few days before.

The news report described this accident: “Due to the heavy snowfall a few days ago, a series of car accidents occurred on an overpass. There is no casualty list yet, but three people have died. Hospitals are currently sending ambulances there.

When Wayne and Gabe arrived at the hospital, they noticed that it was crowded.

Wayne jumped out of the car before it even came to a complete stop. ‘And Gabe was taken aback by his bold action and slammed on the brakes immediately.

Before Gabe could say anything, Wayne had already run into the hospital.

Wayne called Anna and Mona several more times, but no one answered. He stood nervously at the door, only to see doctors carrying stretchers to the emergency room.

“Excuse me!”

“Get the pacemaker ready!

“Inform the patients’ families! Let them sign the papers!”

Wayne asked the nurse at the front desk eagerly, “Where’s Anna Gabriel?”

The nurse said, looking over the list, “Sir, sorry, but | didn’t find that name. She may have been seriously injured, so that’s why we didn’t write her name down. You can look for her in the operating room.”

At that moment, a doctor walked right past him, pushing a stretcher cart. Wayne took a look around and noticed there was bright red blood on the white sheets.

Thinking that the person lying on the stretcher might be Anna, he held his forehead and almost fell to the ground because of fear. Having overcome with fear, he instantly dashed to the operating room.

Then he heard a nurse shouting, “We’re going to perform surgery on ‘

Anna Gabriel. Does anyone know who she is?”

Hearing that, Wayne’s eyes widened in shock, and he dashed over there, pushing aside anyone who got in his way, dying to see what was actually going on.

Wayne heard the nurse repeat her questions, but he couldn’t even move his legs. He froze for a long time before returning to his senses and saying, “Ido! I’m her family!”

The nurse appeared emotionless because she was so used to seeing this scene. She handed him a piece of paper and said, “We need to operate on the right side of her chest because it’s penetrated by a steel bar. She’s in danger, and doctors are still trying their best to save her. Please sign here.”’

Hearing that, Wayne went stiff. He felt like a bomb had exploded in his head, rendering him unable to think clearly.

“Sir, are you all right? ” the nurse asked.

Wayne couldn’t control his shaking hands as he took the pen and signed the paper. People were talking and walking around him, but he didn’t seem to hear anything. He peered through the c***k in the operating room door, trying to see what was going on inside.

After about ten minutes, three people approached him anxiously. They were Andrew, Scott, and Randal.

In a panic, Scott asked, “How is Anna?”

Wayne pursed his lips, and trembled all over. He tried to calm himself down before repeating what the doctor had just said.

Seeing his reaction, Scott’s eyes instantly turned red, and he grabbed Wayne’s collar and asked, “Is this how you look after her? Why did this happen?”

Randal yanked on Scott’s shirt and exclaimed, “Please relax, dear. ‘It may not be as bad as you think. They’ve already started saving her’

Ignoring Randal, Scott grabbed Wayne’s collar more tightly and said, “Wayne! You promised me you would do everything you could to protect her! How could you let this happen to my sister?”

Wayne looked up at Scott at that moment, tears welling up in his eyes. In fact, if Scott hadn’t questioned him, he would have remained depressed and silent.

“Yes, she is your sister,” he said, “but she is more important to me than my life.”

Everyone froze. Randal then said, “Come on, honey, stop it. They’re still in the operating room.”

After about 30 minutes, the lights went out in the operating room. When the doctors saw the people at the door, they bowed and apologized, saying, “I’m sorry, we did our best but she didn’t make it.”

Scott felt weak in his legs right away and would have flopped on the floor if Randal hadn’t grabbed him by the waist.

The stretcher cart was then pushed out. Scott knelt next to it, clutching the white cloth tightly, and began to cry. Andrew’s eyes were moist, and Randal was trembling.

Wayne was frozen, unsure what to do. He felt he wasn’t even as brave as Scott because he was too afraid to walk over to the stretcher.

God… Why?! No… | must be dreaming. Anna, after wake up from my dream, you will be sitting next to me and smiling at me, right? Right?!

At the thought of that, Wayne pinched his arm hard to see whether he was dreaming or not. To his disappointment, the intense pain he felt showed that he wasn’t dreaming at all. ‘ I’m so so sorry, Anna. I’m so sorry that I disappointed you by almost endangering Matthew again. I’m so sorry that | didn’t trust you more. | should’ve told you more often that love you and that I do care about you. But it’s already too late. f**k! What am Igonna do without you?

I can’t live without you

“Ah, what brings you all here?” A familiar female voice pulled Wayne back to reality.

Hearing that, all of them turned around and saw Mona coming down the hallway with two plastic bags containing lunch boxes.

“What’s going on?” she asked, surprised, of the five grieving men.

Andrew whispered, “Stop asking; she’s dead.”

Mona froze and stared at the stretcher car draped in a white cloth. She sighed and explained, “I’m truly sorry. Anna and | did everything we could to get her to the hospital ”

Andrew nodded but realized immediately that something was wrong. “What are you talking about?” he asked, looking at Mona.

“| said that Anna and | did everything we could,” Mona said as she froze.

Wayne reacted immediately as Andrew was about to ask another question. He dashed over to the stretcher cart and grabbed the cloth. Then, everyone was surprised to see a strange woman with a pale face.

Scott was startled and flung himself into Randal’s arms. “That’s not Anna!” he exclaimed.

Wayne finally calmed down. He put down the cloth and asked Mona, “Where is Anna then?”

Mona scratched her head in confusion, then looked around and said, “I’m curious as well. | just got some food because we’ve been busy all night ‘ and haven’t had dinner yet. Anna used to be a medical student, so she’s off volunteering.

To Mona’s surprise, Wayne had already dashed off into the distance before she could finish her words.

Andrew also reacted quickly and assisted the nurse in transporting the patient to the morgue.

As for Mona, she had no idea what was going on. She raised her head and asked, “What on earth is going on? Could somebody please explain it tome?”

Gabe paused for a moment before saying, “A nurse just told Wayne that she was going to operate on a woman named Anna Gabriel and that he needed to sign for it. So, Wayne just assumed the woman was her.*’

Mona sighed and added, “Don’t worry, nothing bad happened to her. Our car collided with a guardrail, and I took it in for repairs.”

Upon that, Everyone let out a relieved sigh. Scott regained his sense and leaned over Randall, rubbing his eyes and muttering, “Wayne just scared the hell out of me!”

Randal rubbed his hair, then asked, “Do you still want to see Anna?”

Scott shook his head, “No, let’s go home. I’ve got a full schedule tomorrow.”

They then both left, followed by Gabe.

At the same time, Mona stood in the hallway with her food, not knowing what to do.

Andrew looked at her and said, “Let’s go, Mona. The hospital will probably prepare dinner for Anna. | just finished designing a new prototype; would you like to see it?” ‘

Mona’s eyes lit up, and she exclaimed, “Sure, I’d love to!”

“| haven’t had dinner either,” Andrew said, looking at the lunchbox she was holding.

Meanwhile, Wayne ran around the hospital like crazy until he came across Anna by ambulance at the entrance.

She was assisting the doctors and nurses in carrying the patients down, and her pink coat was stained with blood. The scene was chaotic, but she appeared to be calm and organized.

Wayne finally calmed down when he saw her and sighed with relief, thinking, Thank goodness you’re safe and sound, Anna! That’s all that matters.

However, on second thought, Wayne sensed that something was off about the car accident. He thought, How strange. I’ve driven through that overpass thousands of times and I’ve never witnessed a car accident happen there. Also, the overpass is famous for its safety. Moreover, over the years, only one car accident was reported taking place on that overpass. However, the car accidents that happened today is so serious that it caused dozens of people to injure and even several deaths! Something is fishy about the whole thing. | need to ask Gabe to thoroughly investigate the car accident.

Then Wayne called Gabe, “Gabe, | don’t think the car accident is merely an accident. You have three days to investigate the accident.”

“Got it, Sir!” Gabe answered.

Meanwhile, in the ambulance, a doctor knelt to wipe his brow. He said to Anna, “I’ve never seen you before. Are you a doctor here?’’
