Female Novel
Chapter 1125
Beck and Dylan hurriedly entered the hospital room.
Judith, unconscious on the hospital bed, had an arm hanging off the side, her wrist startlingly pale.
Dylan took her hand and sighed quietly.
While her life wasn't in danger, her health would likely deteriorate after this incident.
He took out his cellphone and after pondering for a while, he called their father.
Beck was startled when he saw the dialed number.
"Dylan, are you going to tell Dad?"
"Yep."
Beck was immediately filled with trepidation. Their father was the ultimate authority in the house. If he
found out about Judith's predicament.
But before he could stop Dylan, the call had already gone through.
There was a time difference in North America, and the middle-aged man glanced at the blinking note
on his phone screen before deciding to answer.
"Dylan, what's up?"
"Dad, Judith is in the hospital here. She's unconscious. I thought you should know."
The man was silent for a moment before asking, "Is she in danger? How did she get hurt?"
"It has to do with Ian's ex-wife. Judith wanted to marry Ian, but when the ex-wife's parents found out,
they pushed her."
The man slowly stood up, staring blankly out the window.
Several minutes later he said, "As long as Judith is okay, it will be fine. As for the rest, you do what you
think is necessary."
"Are you coming to Greenfield, Dad?"
"I'll be there in a few days."
He had, after all, asked Phelps to handle some business for him, but there was no news from him yet.
After a pause, he added, "Dylan, have you met any nice kids there in Greenfield, or anyone who
reminds you of us, the Sanders?"
This was just a probe. Only he, among the whole Sanders family, knew that Judith was not biologically
related to them.
A flash of Maja's bright, confident eyes passed through Dylan's mind, but remembering that she was
indirectly responsible for Judith's condition, he shook his head.
"No, Dad. Why do you ask?"
"I just hope Judith makes some good friends there. You and Beck take good care of her. I don't want
something like this to happen again."
Dylan nodded, then asked, "What about Mom? Should we tell her?"novelbin
"No, don't. If she finds out, she'll want to fly over immediately."
Dylan reluctantly ended the call. He had the unsettling feeling that their father was becoming colder
towards Judith, perhaps because she had run off to Greenfield for a man.
Judith's actions were indeed wrong, but if she wanted Ian, then they needed to settle the marriage with
the Raymond family soon.
He turned to Ian, "Mr. Raymond, have you considered your marriage to Judith?"
Ian looked at Judith, lying on the bed, and didn't say a word.
Dylan fell silent too.
Beck, squeezed between the two, felt extremely uncomfortable.
An hour later, Ian took out a cigarette and left the room, presumably to smoke.
On the other hand, Zoey's surgery was done. It was just a minor wound closure, and she was already
awake and in the recovery room.
Maja followed the doctor to complete some paperwork downstairs, passing by Ian.
She heard footsteps behind her but didn't know it was Ian.
She returned after completing the paperwork and paused in front of the gynecology department. After a
moment's hesitation, she slowly stepped in.
Ian returned from his smoke break just in time to see this. Even from a distance, he clearly saw her go
in.
The cigarette in his hand fell to the ground, half-smoked. He felt a trembling pain in his chest, the bitter
taste of the smoke spreading from his tongue to his heart.
Almost uncontrollably, he followed her. At the door, he heard Maja ask, "So, how's the baby?"
Ian's hand rested on the doorknob. Hearing the words, he felt a thundering sound in his mind.
The doctor adjusted his glasses, "The baby can be saved, but it will take a lot of medication and it won't
be easy."
"It's okay, as long as the baby can be saved."
"There may be various punctures, it will be painful."
"Doctor, as long as the baby can be saved, it's okay."
The doctor sighed.
Ian couldn't take it anymore and almost ran away.
When he realized Maja was about to come out, he ran even faster.
Meanwhile, Maja came out of the room and quickly moved to a chair by the side.
"I've asked for you. The doctor will be here soon. You just wait for your husband. Your child can be
saved, but it won't be easy."
"It's okay, I'm not afraid of difficulties. Thank you so much."
Maja had met a pregnant woman during her paperwork process. The woman had blood on her pants
and was too weak to walk, so she asked Maja for help.
The woman had been staying in the hospital for fetal conservation, but she had bleeding episodes
several times. This led to the conversation Maja had with the doctor.
