Female Novel
Chapter 230
A flash of golden lightning split the dark sky, the thunder rumbled, and the rain poured down.In the
room, Christina held the house phone with trembling hands.
Her heartbeat was out of rhythm and she shouted repeatedly at the microphone, competing with the
roaring thunder.
“Patrick’s breath fastened with his temperature high.I can’t wake him up”
She was half-kneeling on the bed with her face pale, keeping telling herself to calm down and that he
would be fine, for he was usually in good health.
How, how could he suddenly fall ill? But Christina’s hands trembled uncontrollably.
What’s more, frightening, she nervously climbed into bed to give him CPR immediately.
His body was so hot, and she anxiously pressed down on his heart, with tears welled up in her eyes.
Patrick would wake up soon.He is always strong and healthy.
Nothing serious would happen.
Nothing.
When Nanny Faang and the others rushed in, the doctors and the old housekeeper in Hopkins familynovelbin
immediately motioned for them to move aside.
Christina stood by the side, afraid that she would disturb them.
Now, she was shocked with her mind blank.
“Yes, his heart is beating.But the temperature is too high.We have to lower it immediately.Get the
injection now!”
“Put the medicine under his tongue.”
The thunder rumbled outside the window, and lightning flashed from time to time.
With the voice of Nanny Faang, other servants, and doctors, it was a mess.
Everyone was so flustered that they were almost out of breath and spoke intermittently.
“He can’t be moved now.Hurry up to take all the medicine here”
The doctor shouted anxiously, then quickly bent down to open Patrick’s eyes and check his pupils with
a small torch.
Soon, a group of people came with a metal frame on which were four or five shaking liquid injection
bottles.
Besides, some entered with large medical utensils containing syringes, disinfectants, and many
complicated medical supplies.
Christina was staying quietly in the corner all the time.
Her body was stiff.
She was so nervous that she did not dare to breathe.She fixed her eyes on the bed without the intent to
blink, for she was afraid that just after a blink, Patrick would…She really couldn’t believe it.
At that time, she had been talking to Patrick who had looked fine and healthy.He had just been tired
from work and had migraines occasionally.
Such a strong man who could easily pick her up with one arm wouldn’t be seriously ill.
Her eyes were slightly red, but she held back her tears and spoke to herself over and over again that
he would be fine.
Patrick must be fine.
“Mannitol.”
Suddenly, she stared at a small bottle of liquid injection whose mark was mannitol on the metal stand at
the bedside.
She was shocked.She quickly took a step forward and clenched Anut Fanng’s arm.
“The medicine, why did Patrick need the mannitol? Didn’t he have a migraine?”
Mannitol was a common medicine for brain treatment.
Christina majored in clinical medicine at university, so she was clear that mannitol was mainly used to
reduce intracranial pressure and avoid brain swelling.
“We must wake him up.He must wake up.”
Christina turned and saw the doctor quickly insert a needle into Patrick’s arm, making the cold liquid
drip into his blood vessels.
“Mrs.Hopkins, you can go out first.Doctors are here now.Mr.Hopkins will be fine.”
Nanny Faang pushed her out of the room.
Christina paused, looking serious and unwilling to leave.
“You’re pregnant.You should take care of yourself…”
Nanny Faang gently advised Christina again, while the doctor over there bent down and whispered in
Patrick’s ear.
“Mr.Hopkins…”
“Mr.Hopkins, can you hear me?”
Patrick’s right hand pricked with a needle moved slightly, but Patrick was crowded by many people,
which blocked Christian’s sight.She was then half-pushed and half-dragged out by Nanny Faang.
“Senior Mr.Hopkins.”
Just as Christina walked out, Senior Mr.Hopkins rushed upstairs with a cane.
The two buttons on his tang suit were not fastened properly, and his hair was wet because of the rain
outside.
Seeing the dignified senior, the crowd seemed to calm down.
“Senior Mr.Hopkins, Doctor Morris is giving an injection to Young Master Hopkins.He said that if Young
Master Hopkins could wake up, he would be fine…”
Nanny Faang reported quickly to Senior Mr.Hopkins, sounding worried.
However, Senior Mr.Hopkins did not immediately enter the room to see Patrick.
Instead, he turned to Christina with his sharp old eyes.
“Take her away.”
The man with a hoarse and old voice suddenly gave an order.
Nanny Faang could not understand.
Christina did not come back to her senses, either, but her arms had been lifted by two tall male
servants.
“Grandpa…”
She looked frightened and began to struggle.
The two male servants were so strong that they lifted her and carried her down the stairs.
Christina turned to look up, with reluctance to leave, begging Senior Mr.Hopkins, “Grandpa, I won’t
disturb you.I’ll just stand by and wait until Patrick wakes up.I won’t make any noise.I’m worried about
him as well.I won’t leave…Where do you want me to go!”
She was dragged down the stairs and then out of the house.
The heavy and chilly rain swept across her face in the strong wind, drenching half of her body in an
instant and washing her face and clothes.
“Senior Mr.Hopkins, where, where are you taking her?”
Nanny Faang was staying beside Christina anxiously, but she did not dare to violate Senior
Mr.Hopkins’s order.
In desperation, she looked up and shouted to Senior Mr.Hopkins upstairs.
“Senior Mr.Hopkins, the weather is bad.It is raining heavily, and it’s thundering.Christina’s still pregnant,
so it’s not suitable for her to stay outside now:”
Senior Mr.Hopkins didn’t respond, only staring with his sharp eyes in the direction of the door.
“Mrs.Hopkins, please get on”
The old butler was already standing at the gate of Eastern Garden, with the back door of the
champagne golden Rolls-Royce opened.
The luxury car, at this time, looked more like a terrible abyss to Christina.
“I won’t.”
“What do you want to do? Where are you taking me?”
“I’m going nowhere.Let me go, let me go!”
She clenched the door with both hands and struggled not to get on.
The cold rain had drenched her body and dripped down to the ends of her long hair.
Her face was already cold.
Then she complained angrily, “I’m not leaving.”
“Christina.”
In the corridor on the left, Brianna and Judy also came over.
Seeing Christina dragged into the rain, drenched and disheveled, Brianna shouted in shock.
Judy was also stunned after seeing what had happened.
“Take her away immediately!”
Senior Mr.Hopkins on the second floor repeated the order impatiently after hearing the noise.
Christina looked up and shouted in the direction of the second floor, “Why, why!”
Her heart was colder than the freezing rain.
“I’m not leaving.I said I’m not going anywhere.I promised Patrick that I wouldn’t leave.”
“It’s not up to you.”
She looked at the old butler with her face stiffened.
For the first time, Christina realized that Paul had never been amicable.
His voice was as ruthless as a machine.
To loosen her hands on the door, the male servants almost broke her fingers.
In pain, she, much weaker, was finally forced into the Car.
“Let me out, let me out -“her eyes were red with anxiety.
She lowered her head and turned the door handle desperately, then hit the window.
However, it was in vain.
Brianna and Nanny Faang stood still, watching with mixed emotions and horror as the door was
slammed closed and the luxurious car disappeared in the thunder, lightning, and rainy night in an
instant.
“Christina left herself.Do you hear me?”
The stern order came, and no one dared to disobey it.
