Chapter 689 It's Not Your Fault
"Mommy, don't worry, I just hurt a little bit..." Jimmy struggled to answer but eventually passed outbefore finishing his sentence.
Martha's body shook as she immediately bent down to pick up her son. "Jimmy, wake up and lookat me."
"Tell me where else you're hurt besides your leg," Stefan calmly approached Martha and gently heldher shoulder. "Martha, don't be afraid. I'm here."
He finished speaking and wanted to take Jimmy from Martha's arms but the latter held onto himtightly while looking at him in panic.
"Hospital, we need to go to the hospital now." Only by going to the hospital could Jimmy be saved.
They needed to go there right away.
Martha's eyes turned slightly red as she forced herself to calm down but her body continuedtrembling uncontrollably.
"Okay, let's go straight away," Stefan pursed his lips tightly and responded in a low voice.
He took the child from Martha's arms and headed towards their parked car outside of the scenicarea.
Martha stumbled behind him towards their car while tremblingly saying, "Jimmy will be fine; he mustbe fine..."
After they left, Melissa turned around and grabbed Eden's arm, "Let's go too."
"Okay." Eden replied in a low voice before following Melissa into their car.
The sports car quickly disappeared, leaving only Helen standing alone in front of the rockery .
She was staring at it with a vicious smile on her lips.
"Martha... this is just beginning..."
...
In the hospital, since Jimmy was taken into emergency room, Martha had been shaking all overwhile staring at its direction intently.
Stefan tightly held onto her hand and tried to reassure her, "It's okay; we caught Jimmy right beforehe fell off."
If their kid fell on the ground, then he couldn't imagine how sad they would be.
His face became grim as he clenched his hands while his gaze grew darker.
Melissa who sat beside them hugged Eden more tightly.
She thought, "Jimmy has suffered so much since birth... Now that the family of three finally lead ahappy life together, such an accident happened to him."
Eden lightly patted Melissa's back, whispering, "It's okay. Nothing will happen."
Martha snapped out of her daze and stared straight ahead at the operating room. Her hands weretightly clenched together and her eyes were filled with self-guilt. She bit her lip tightly.
Stefan quickly noticed something was off about Martha. Her face was pale and she kept staring atthe direction of the operating room with a look of guilt and remorse in her eyes. He held onto
Martha's hand tightly and pulled her into his arms.
"It's not your fault. No one could have predicted this accident," he comforted.
In his mind, Jimmy was always a sensible child. Stefan chose this climbing spot because it hadgood safety measures in place for years without any accidents happening before. If Jimmy felt likehe couldn't continue, the staff would have helped him down safely when he spoke up.
But today an unexpected accident happened so suddenly that even the staff couldn't react in time.
Stefan's breath became heavy as these thoughts ran through his mind. Martha took a deep breathbefore leaning gently against Stefan's chest while saying with a sobbing voice, "It's my fault; if I hadstopped Jimmy from climbing that rockery earlier on, maybe this wouldn't have happened."
"Sweetheart, this has nothing to do with you," Stefan said as his eyes betrayed more self-blame.
Before coming here today, he sent someone to inspect all the climbing equipment to ensure therewere no problems, but an accident still occurred regardless.
He took another deep breath, then squeezed Martha's hand slightly harder, while saying, "Don'tworry. Jimmy will be fine."
Just then, the door of the emergency room opened, a doctor wearing a white coat walked out whileremoving his mask and asking, "Who is his family?"
"I am," Martha immediately stood up nervously, approaching the doctor and asking anxiously, "Howis Jimmy doing?"
The doctor saw how concerned she looked, so he kindly reassured her by saying, "Don't worry toomuch; your child is stable now but has broken his right leg, which requires three months to recover."
Stefan furrowed his brows and asked in a deep voice, "Did you do a full body check? Are you surethere are no other problems?"
"We did. He had no other problems," the doctor replied rigorously.
Seeing the anxious look on the family's face, he continued to explain, "The reason why the childfainted is because he received too much stimulation in a short period of time, so his body had astress reaction."
"He'll be fine when he wakes up."
Martha nodded tremblingly and looked gratefully at the attending physician.
"Doctor, thank you, thank you."novelbin
"The child had been transferred to VIP ward now. You can go see him there." The doctor finishedthese words before turning around.
Melissa heard this and hurried forward to grab her best friend's wrist. "Thank God Jimmy is okay.Let's go see him now!"
"Okay," Martha responded excitedly and quickly walked towards VIP ward.
Stefan noticed bloodstains on Martha's right hand but didn't say anything. He just pursed his lipsand followed her towards the ward...
