Chapter 789 Drawing Louis' Blood
As the man finished speaking, he looked at Jane with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
Jane's body trembled slightly, her cheeks turning as red as apples.
She lowered her head even further and pursed her lips, unsure of what to say.
Suddenly, Louis stood up and took two steps towards Jane.
The woman involuntarily took a step back, her hands sweating nervously at her sides.
The man took another step forward and backed Jane against the wall before wrapping his armaround her waist.
"After Vivian's surgery is over, let's make up for our wedding night," he said in a low yet magneticvoice that was like an angel's seduction. This caused Jane to unconsciously nod in agreement.
Louis saw this and smirked satisfactorily while continuing to hold onto Jane tightly.
Her pretty face turned even redder.
She bent down and slipped out from under his arm before running out of the room unsteadily. Onceoutside the door leaning against the cold wall helped restore some of her composure.
She bit down on her lower lip while clenching the hand that hung by side into a tight fist.
That man had asked such an inappropriate question!
What was worse was that she had agreed without thinking!
Thinking about it now made Jane feel like her heart was pounding harder than ever before...
In the hospital room after Jane left, Louis furrowed his eyebrows together, feeling dizzy all over.
He leaned heavily against the wall so he wouldn't fall over.
When he finally managed to walk over to sit on sofa nearby, he glared coldly towards the ward door,saying, "Come in."
The nurse waiting outside heard him speak and entered through door again with needle ready fordrawing blood once more.
He wanted to make up for their missed wedding night but more importantly didn't want to worryJane any further.
Mr. Berger calculated based on Vivian's height and weight that there were approximately 4 liters ofblood throughout Vivian's body which meant Vivian needed 2 liters replaced during surgery.
However, it wasn't possible or safe enough for Louis to take out so much blood at once, so Louissuggested 1. 5 liters drawn from himself and 0. 5 liters drawn several hours later.
After seeing Louis' pale face, the nurse hesitated in her actions. "Mr. Caesar, why don't we wait twomore hours before continuing..."
Before the nurse could finish her sentence, Louis interrupted her. "It's fine. You can draw anothertube of blood and then I'll rest. We'll leave 0. 5 liters for this afternoon."
Once the nurse finished drawing his blood and left, Louis lay exhausted on his hospital bed with lipsdevoid of color.
But every time he thought about how Vivian might be his biological daughter, he felt a softness.
Even if she wasn't, she was Jane's daughter.
Vivian was important to Jane; he had to save her.
He couldn't bear to lose Jane again after living through five years of a dark life.
Louis lowered his gaze and gently closed his eyes...
...
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Vivian was taken into surgery.
Before Vivian entered the operating room, Jane smiled as she touched Vivian's head and said,"Don't be afraid, Vivian. Just take a nap and when you wake up, you'll be a healthy little girl."
"Okay!" Vivian happily replied with a bright smile on her pretty face.
Jane lowered her head and kissed Vivian on the forehead, slowly saying, "I will be waiting for yououtside."
"Okay!" Vivian replied with another smile without any fear in her eyes at all.
She didn't know about any risks involved with surgery; all she knew was that once it was over shewould be able to play like other kids again!
She looked forward to meeting new friends and dreaming about future life adventures!
Just then, Louis stepped forward and smiled as he reached out to touch Vivian's small cheek andsaid, "When you come out, Vivian, I will take you out for candy."
"Thank you, Uncle Louis!"
Vivian smiled sweetly while extending out one tender hand and waving it gently.
As they pushed Vivian into surgery, the little girl still had a radiant smile on her face saying, "MissNurse, I'm a good girl. Be gentle to me!"
"You're amazing kid!" One nurse praised while smiling warmly at Vivian.
After placing Vivian onto the surgical table, the other nurse skillfully injected anesthesia into Vivian'sbody.
Outside the operating room, Louis stood in place after Vivian went in, suddenly staggering as if hewas going to fall. If it weren't for Jane's quick reflexes to catch him, he would have hit the ground.
She looked at Louis' pale and handsome face and felt like something had hit her deep inside,leaving her feeling weak.
Jane anxiously asked, "Louis, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Louis replied weakly before walking with Jane's support to sit on a bench outside theoperating room door.
Jane looked at him with worry written all over her face and concern in her voice. "How can you beokay? They took 1, 500 milliliters of blood from you all at once..."
She choked up suddenly and bit her lip without saying anything more.
Louis noticed something was wrong with Jane and turned his head to meet her slightly reddenedeyes.
He gently touched the corner of Jane's eye with his hand before smiling and saying, "We're alreadymarried; your daughter is my daughter too. How could I watch Vivian undergo surgery without trying
to save her?"
Upon hearing this statement from Louis, a wave of emotion washed over Jane again. To Louis,Vivian was just an insignificant person but as a high-ranking count, he was willing to do so much.
She... she appreciated his efforts very much.
At the same time, an idea suddenly occurred to Jane: if Vivian really were Louis' biologicaldaughter, then wouldn't he have to thank her for saving his child?
Thinking about this possibility caused a complex expression on Jane's face.
Louis didn't hear Jane's answer, so he grabbed onto Jane's hand tightly and asked, "What? Are youtelling me that even though we're married now, you still want to separate from me?"
Jane snapped out of it, then panickedly refuted him by saying, "No! That's not what I meant!"
"You better not be," said Louis coldly while looking at Jane meaningfully.
Jane smiled before holding onto his hand and speaking softly, "Let's go on an outing together afterVivian is discharged."
"Okay."
Louis listened attentively without any hesitation.novelbin
Before long, a nurse walked towards them with a tray full of medical equipment.
"Louis."
"Please continue."
Louis gave the nurse a faint glance and extended his other hand.
Upon hearing this, Jane couldn't help but reach out and grab Louis' sleeve. "Continue what?" sheasked.
"Draw blood."
The man responded with a faint nod and allowed the nurse to tie on the medical bandage beforecontinuing to draw blood.
Jane's pupils shrank and she trembled as she asked, "Didn't they already draw 1, 500 milliliters?"
Louis reached out his other hand and gently patted Jane's hand, whispering, "They didn't continueto draw my blood after you left. This is making up for it?"
Jane tightened her grip on his sleeve and nervously said, "But you..."
She must save Vivian.
But now when she saw Louis having his blood drawn in such a desperate manner, her heart felt asif a sharp blade had been inserted into it, and it hurt so much that she found it hard to even breathe.
Unfortunately, Jane has no choice.
Louis took Jane's hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm okay."
Jane hung her head low, tightly biting her lip, and didn't speak again.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a bit annoyed with herself for not being able to help with anything.
Vivian is clearly her daughter, but she can't do anything about it.
Soon, the nurse drew 500 milliliters of blood and sent it to the emergency room.
Two bags of blood, one bag containing 250 milliliters, were sent in for Vivian's blood transfusion.
Louis, sitting on the bench, braced himself and coaxed the woman at his side in a low voice, "Look,I'm fine?"
In the next second, he felt his head become a bit heavy.
He hung his head and fell heavily onto Jane's shoulder.
Before Louis lost consciousness, he heard Jane's panicked shouts in a daze.
"Doctor, doctor, please come quickly, he has fainted."
his two thousand milliliters of blood had been worth it for Jane's concern and worry about him.
