Chapter 138

Upon hearing my words, the doctor frowned and said sternly, "Everyone, the patient is in a critical

situation, so you'd better treat this seriously. Only the consent of the patient's parents, wife or children

can be considered legally effective."

I walked over, took the paper, signed it, and asked coldly, "Are there any more documents to sign?"

The doctor shook his head and asked, "What's your relationship with the patient?"

"His wife," I replied.

Then I continued saying, "If there is nothing else to sign, I will head back to my office. I still have things

to work on."

Probably confused about the complicated relationship, the doctor looked at Andrea and me, then

suggested, "You still need to go through the admission procedures later. Since you are the patient's

wife, you should stay and take care of the patient for the night."

I was a little irritated, "Is he going to die?"

My question left everyone present stunned. All eyes were on me.

The doctor grimaced, "No, he's not that critical. His wounds are mainly external injuries."

"Okay then," I replied.

I didn't find it necessary to stay, especially since he wasn't dying anytime soon.

I signed all the papers and went through every necessary procedure. After handing over some of his

stuff to Austin, Josiah went into the operation room.

I also handed the documents over to Austin. Displeased, he asked, 'Arianna, why are you doing this?"

"Don't you understand?" I asked. I raised my eyebrows at him and said, "I have done everything I'mnovelbin

required to. And it doesn't seem like I have anything else to do here."

"Is this what you do as a wife?" Austin sneered and questioned, "Your husband is hospitalized, and yet

you're just thinking about how to distance yourself from him. Is this what you should do as a wife?"

I found the situation absurdly funny at that moment. I glanced at Andrea, who was sitting at the side,

still looking frowzy. Then, I turned to Austin, "I don't know how other women would react when their

husband was involved in a car accident with his mistress. The best thing I could do to Hendrix is not

delaying his surgery. If it wasn't for the baby in my belly, I wouldn't even have signed the papers in the

first place."

"Arianna, you're an evil woman!" Andrea spoke up before Austin could come up with anything.

I nodded and looked at her, "Yes, I am. But not enough. I should have made my prayers so that you

two could die in that accident together, in the name of love.” "Arianna, are you even human?" Austin

voiced out. He couldn't bear to see me cursing the woman he loved.

"No," I shrugged. I shouldn't waste my energy debating with them. I took one last glance at the

operating room and turned around to go straight out of the hospital.

When I returned to the company, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Kelsey carried

documents on Alford Audit into my office and started reporting to me, "Director, I've modified the

documents, but Mr. Roberts is not in his office. Can you sign the documents in his stead?"

I looked up at her and didn't say anything for a long time. She flustered and said, "Actually, we need the

documents signed quite urgently. I'm afraid that it will affect the work progress, so-"

"Is Calvin Hammer your boyfriend?" I asked icily.

Her face fell and she looked pale, "Director, I-"

"Is he working at the Alford Audit?" I continued asking while gazing at her.

For a moment there, her hands, which were carrying the documents, shook. But she bit her lip and said

nothing.

After glaring at her for a long time, I sighed, "Kelsey, I'd like to think that I treat you well. Ever since you

joined us, I have only your best interests in mind no matter what happened."
