She had searched for her sister for decades but when there was finally news about her, it turned out that her sister had passed away more than a decade ago. Luckily, she still had two nieces to console her.
Now, if even her niece was…
“She’s still inside and hasn’t come out yet, so I don’t know about her situation. I’ve told Serena, and she’s on her way back.”
Clive hummed.
Afterward, he comforted his mom.
Jessica had also quietly come and was keeping Hank and his son company. Her face was pale white.
Sirens sounded endlessly at that time, so she knew many police had arrived.
She also found out that Zack had arranged for people to secretly protect Liberty and her son all this while.
Since Jessica helped the bad guys snatch Sonny away… She had probably been watched for a long time too. Zack was waiting to collect evidence and catch those people in one go.
Perhaps Liberty getting hurt was an accident to Zack and the others.
Hank told his parents about what happened.
They were almost scared to death when they heard that their grandson was almost kidnapped again. They were only relieved after knowing that he was fine. When they heard that Liberty got injured from protecting Sonny and was being treated, they came to the hospital as well.
Hank advised his parents to wait at home, but they were not willing to do so.
Not long after Serena, Jasmine, and Elisa arrived at the hospital, the door of the emergency room was opened.
“Doctor, how’s my sister doing?”
Serena jumped over and grabbed the doctor’s sleeves. She asked anxiously.
Zack held her.
He was afraid that she might faint.
The doctor responded, “The patient’s vital parts weren’t stabbed, but her internal organs were injured, and she lost too much blood, which endangered her life. We operated on her, but she needs to be transferred to the ICU now and monitored for a few days.
“If she pulls through these few days, she’ll be fine.”
Surviving the next few days would mean that Liberty had truly passed the critical period and would be able to live.
“Doctor, you must save my sister-you must!”
The doctor said, “We’ve done everything we could. Now, it’s up to the patient to get through it.
“The stab wounds weren’t fatal, but what’s keeping her teetering on the edge of life and death are her internal injuries.”
Serena’s legs went weak.
Zack held her and comforted her, “She’ll be fine-she’ll definitely be fine.”
“Zack!”
Serena turned around and buried herself in his arms. She cried in pain.
“I’m so scared-I’m scared that she’ll… I’m only left with her… My parents are gone, so she’s the only person I have left. If even she is… Zack, I’m scared-I’m really scared.”
Serena’s words brought Mrs. Stone to tears as well.
She thought of herself back then when she and her sister were sent to the orphanage, there were two of them.
However, when she finally had news of her sister, she became the only one left. She did not even see her only sister one last time.
Zack hugged Serena tightly, giving her support and comfort.
“Seren, Liberty will be fine. She’ll wake up soon. It’ll be alright.
“Don’t worry. We still have to help her take care of Sonny. He’s terrified.”
Serena was so scared that she could not stop crying. Zack’s reassurance did not work at all but once he mentioned Sonny, her cries became softer.
Yes, she still needed to help her sister take care of Sonny.
After crying for a while, Serena adjusted her emotions and took the tissue given to her by Zack to wipe her tears. She then left his embrace and walked toward Sonny, who had been. held by Hank.
“Aunt Ser.”
Sonny stretched out his hands toward Serena.
Serena picked him up and carried him.
“Serena, I’m sorry.”
Hank apologized guiltily. It was his fault. He did not carry Sonny and wanted to pull him over from Liberty.
He would blame himself for the rest of his life if anything happened to Liberty and if Sonny was taken away.
Serena carried her nephew and turned around to return to Zack’s side. She did not want to respond to Hank.
Hank blamed himself.
Mrs. Brown wanted to say something but was held back by Mr. Brown.
Anything they were to say at this time would be wrong.
Serena must have hated their son.
Jessica was even more afraid. She tried hard to be invisible.
“Aunt Ser, is Mom going to die?” Sonny asked in fear.
The thought of his mom covered in blood scared him.
Serena pressed her nephew’s head into her arms and hugged his still-shivering body tightly. She answered firmly in a hoarse voice, “No, your mom will live a long life. She’s not going to die. She loves you so much, Sonny. She’ll watch you go to school and grow up. She won’t leave you behind.”
“Aunt Ser, I’m so scared.”
“Don’t be scared. I’m here, so don’t be scared. We’re not scared. Your mom will be fine-she’ll be fine.”
Sonny lifted his little face. His eyes were red and swollen, his face full of tear stains, and he looked extremely pale with dried blood stains on his face.
Serena looked down at her nephew and she felt her heart break again. She pressed Sonny’s head against her arms once more and hugged him tightly while he hugged her neck.
The door to the emergency room opened again.
Liberty was pushed out.
Serena rushed over with her nephew in her arms.
Even so, the nurses blocked her away. They pushed Liberty away and said, “Family members, don’t block the way. The patient has to be transferred to the ICU first.”
Zack quickly pulled Serena out of the way.
Afterward, they went to the ICU together, but the medical staff disallowed family members from. following them inside.
Serena saw her sister lying motionless on the hospital bed with a pale face. Her tears could not help but fall again.
A small hand gently wiped her tears. Sonny said to her, “Aunt Ser, don’t cry. Mom will be fine.”
Despite that, his face was already covered in tears.
He knew his mom bled a lot because of him.
“Mm, I won’t cry. Dust got into my eyes.”
Serena freed one of her hands to wipe away her tears.
Liberty was in the ICU and did not need to be taken care of by family members, who were only allowed to visit inside for a while every day.
Although Serena could not watch over her sister in the ward, she refused to leave the hospital and insisted on waiting outside for her sister to wake up.
Her sister would definitely wake up.
Police came to the hospital.
Everyone watched as several police officers walked over.
“Which one of you is Jessica Yates?” asked the policeman in the lead.
