Chapter 843
Chapter: 843
Ariana, powerless and afraid, followed the team until she reached the cold, unwelcoming entrance of
the emergency room. She watched, heart pounding, as the heavy doors swallowed Theodore from her
sight.
In the stark waiting area, she found herself seated, her mind a whirlwind of what-ifs and if-onlys. She
berated herself for not paying closer attention to Theodore’s health. Had he been taking that dangerous
medication behind her back?
The memory of Mitchel’s warnings about its harmful side effects sent a cold shiver down her spine.
Fear gnawed at her, the thought of losing Theodore unbearable. Each time she’d tried to broach the
subject of his health and the medication, he’d always sidestepped her questions, keeping her in the
dark.
Back at the entrance to the emergency room, Horace maintained his calm.
He regarded Ariana, her face a picture of desolation, and suggested, “You should go get some rest. I’ll
stay here and keep you updated on his condition.”
Ariana vigorously shook her head, her body numb with fear. “I can’t leave.” Tears welled up in her eyes
as she stared at Horace. Her voice was a whisper carrying the weight of her distress. “What happened
to him? Is it serious?”
Before Horace could reply, she pressed on, desperation lacing her words. “Why was he taking that
medicine? You’re hiding something from me, aren’t you?”
Horace opened his mouth to respond, but the words seemed to elude him.
However, before the silence stretched too thin, the doctor emerged from the emergency room.
Ariana rushed up to him, her voice trembling with barely restrained emotion. “Doctor, how is he?” Her
heart pounded in her chest as she steeled herself for the answer.
In an unexpected turn of events, the doctor merely waved his hand dismissively. “It‘s nothing serious.
He’s just severely fatigued. He needs to rest for a few days, and he’ll be fine.”
Caught off guard, Ariana stared at the doctor, her mind racing to process the words. “He’s… He’s
okay?” she asked, her voice a mere echo of disbelief.
The doctor simply nodded.
Realizing that Theodore was indeed okay left Ariana suspended between relief and incredulity.
The doctor then said, “There is some paperwork to be completed.”
“I can do it!” Ariana volunteered, already preparing to leave. But Horace gently stopped her.
“Go rest, Mrs. Anderson. I’ll handle the paperwork.”

Trusting that Horace was more experienced in such matters and sensing her own exhaustion, Ariana
nodded, then headed back to her hospital room.
After Ariana’s departure, Horace and the doctor moved to the examination room where Aldus was
already waiting. Having heard the earlier commotion, Aldus had rushed over and requested the doctor
to assure Ariana that Theodore was fine.novelbin
With only the three of them present now, the doctor’s face adopted a grave expression. Turning to
Aldus, he said, “Mr. Fredrick, given the patient’s current state, an urgent surgery is necessary. If we
don’t act soon, his life will be in danger.”
Not long after, Theodore woke up from his fainting spell.
As soon as he opened his eyes, there sat Aldus, looking serious, right in front of him.
Before he could even express his surprise at Aldus waking up from his heart attack, Aldus greeted him
with concern, “Do you know how dangerous your current condition is?”
Theodore fell silent, trying to remember the events leading up to his blackout and loss of
consciousness.
With a heavy sigh, Aldus continued, “The doctors said that if we don’t perform the surgery for your
condition, I might be preparing your funeral soon.”
