Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 673

Gwendolyn and Yoel kept silent and looked away.

They did not blame anyone, nor did they carry any resentment in their hearts, but the couple still feltuncomfortable. They felt annoyed, and it was an emotion that needed time to fade away slowly.

Ding!

The door to the emergency room opened, and Justin walked out.

Gwendolyn rushed toward him and asked anxiously, “How is he? How is Edmund doing now? Wereyou able to save him?”

Justin glanced at Artemis, seeking his opinion.

The latter nodded in response, indicating that Justin should tell the truth.

Things had already gotten to this point, so there was no use hiding the truth any further.

Besides, the Chiverses were not stupid. Even if he were to lie to them, there was no way he could keepthe truth from them forever.

Justin nodded slightly as he said, “Don't worry. We managed to save him. However, the injury on hisright leg is too serious. There is no way to cure it in the current state of medical science. I came out toask for your opinion on whether or not you want to amputate his leg. Taking care of his leg post-surgerywould be extremely difficult, so it would be better to amputate it now.”

Gwendolyn staggered backward.

Even though it was something she had expected, she could not bring herself to accept it now that aconclusion had been drawn.

Justin's words meant her son would be crippled. He would have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of hislife and be unable to walk around normally.

Yoel reached out and steadied his wife. His gaze landed on Glen.

The old man narrowed his cloudy eyes. Only a few hours had passed, but he had paled so much that itseemed as though he was at the end of his life.

The Chivers family had always had few children, and the number of descendants had decreased to onein each of the recent generations.

The prestigious family was in ruins now that Edmund had gone through something like this. Glen couldnot bear this fact even though he had experienced how cruel the world could be.

“Is there really no hope at all?”

Justin shook his head. His voice was low as he said, “His bones were crushed, and his muscles werecompletely severed. Besides, he has lost much of his flesh, leaving only his bone behind. It's a brokenbone as well. I suggest—”

“I don't agree.”

Bailey rushed over and grabbed his arm. “Let me have a look inside. You can conclude once I'veassessed the situation. I refuse to believe his leg is crippled just like that. I'll do my best to help himstand back up as long as I'm around. I've been in the medical field for many years and have savedcountless people. However, I admit those people have nothing to do with me. To me, there is only oneperson worth saving, and that is Edmund. I will devote all my life to learning and studying for him.”

Justin was hesitant.

Will she be able to stand it?

The others were also worried about the same thing.

“Are you sure you want to go in?” Glen's expression was grim. “His condition might be far worse thanyou imagined. With the condition you're in right now, you'll break down if you see him. There is no needfor you to force yourself. As I said, no one will blame you for this. This is his life. He can only bear withit since the tragedy has already happened.”

Bailey shook her head. “No. I don't believe in fate. I only believe in my medical skills as the miracledoctor, Anonymous. Keep his leg. Perhaps I'll be able to find a cure for it one day. However, if youamputate it and install prosthetics for him, it can't be considered a part of his body anymore.”

“But—”

“Let her in.”

Artemis, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up. “Anyone else would have tried their bestto ask Anonymous for help, too, if they were in the same situation. We should take advantage of thesituation since she's here now. Keep his leg. At least we'll still have some hope that way. The samecan't be said if we amputate it.”

The others kept silent at that.

Bailey didn't even spare him a glance as she pushed Justin away and rushed into the emergencyroom.

“Go check up on Holden's woman. She's not in the best situation. Just leave this to Bailey. After all, noone else wants Edmund to return to normal more than she does. I believe she'll do her best,” Artemissaid to Justin.

“All right. I'll go check up on things in the other operating room.” novelbin

On the other side, more than half an hour had passed since Wendy was pushed into the operatingroom.

Holden, Micah, and the others were waiting in the corridor.

“It's going to be fine. She still has attachments to this world. Her child is one of them, and she still caresabout whether you love her. Her wishes have not been fulfilled yet. There's no way she'll die just likethat,” Micah kept consoling, not caring if Holden was actually listening to him.

Shannon strode over and whispered, “Go check on Sebastian, Holden. The boy experienced quite ashock and hasn't calmed down yet. The mother and son depended on each other for many years, and

now Wendy is on the verge of death. We can't imagine just how terrifying and worrying it is toSebastian. You're his father, and you're the only one who can console him right now.”

Holden's gaze landed on his son. The boy was curled up and trembling in his grandmother's arms.

Holden had been so focused on Wendy that he had completely forgotten about how his son would feel.

“Okay.”

After Holden left, Micah looked up at Shannon. He stayed silent for a moment before pulling her towardthe balcony some distance away.

They bumped into Justin just as they turned the corner.

Shannon quickly shook off Micah's hand and said to Justin, “Why are you here, Mr. Xuereb? Weren'tyou in the emergency room?”

“Bailey is there, and I came to see how Ms. Hoffman is doing. You guys have a chat first. I'll head intothe operating room now.”

Micah took Shannon's hand once again and pulled her toward the balcony. She wanted to shove hishand aside, but he kept a death grip on her wrist.

The woman used all her might to pry her hand away from his. Then, raising her hand, she slapped himacross his face.

“Let me go.”

Micah ignored her and said, “Return to Tarragon's headquarters with me some time later. So manyyears have passed. There are still some things that we have to put an end to.”

Shannon couldn't help but sneer. “What? Are you trying to bring me back to cut my other arm? Or willyou lock me up and impregnate me again, trampling over the child and leading it to its death? Howunfortunate that your plan is doomed to fail. I don't have my uterus anymore, so there's no way I canget pregnant now.”

This was what one would call ruthless.

Micah's face paled instantly. A bone-chilling pain spread slowly from his heart to his organs and hislimbs.

The woman knew him too well. She knew just what to say to knock him down.

The words “arm,” “child,” and “uterus” pierced through his heart, thoroughly crushing him.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, he had always thought he had never hurt her again after thepeople from Tarragon cut off her arm.

However, he could not deny that she had lost her child and uterus because of him.

“What do I have to do for you to forgive me, Shannon?”
