Chapter 563
At first, Pearl wanted to tell Damian about the situation once she returned to Enswood. However, she
had second thoughts due to Katie’s predicament.
After the birthday party, Reese helped Pearl with all the necessary arrangements and booked their
flight tickets for the next day. Pearl returned to Enswood accompanied by Reese and
Drew.
Upon her arrival in Enswood, Pearl rushed to the hospital where Richard was admitted. Drew joinednovelbin
her, curious to meet Richard.
They hailed a cab to
City hospital and inquired about the location of Richard’s ward. Upon arrival at the door of his room,
they heard sobbing from inside. Pearl’s heart skipped a beat as she entered the ward and found
Richard lying pale in his bed.
Susan and Mobius were seated nearby. Susan appeared devastated and beside herself with grief.
“Aunt Susan, I… I’m back!” Pearl said, deeply moved.
At the sight of Pearl, Susan rushed towards her, embracing her and bursting into loud sobs.” Oh,
Pearl… Rick has been in a coma for ten days. Even the best doctor I could find hasn’t been able to
wake him up. What should I do if I lose him?”
Susan’s anguish brought tears to Pearl’s eyes. “It’s alright, Madam. I’ll save him no matter what. He’s
my fiance.”
With her eyes closed, Pearl suppressed her pain and tears. After taking a deep breath, she said, “Let
me take a look at his condition. After the check–up, I’ll figure out how to save him.”
Pearl donned a surgical gown and gloves before examining Richard’s injuries. She couldn’t help but
feel her heartache deepen as she discovered the extent of his injuries.
Not only had Richard suffered a broken back, but his body was riddled with injuries, and he had even
aspirated water. Given the severity of his condition, surviving the accident was itself a stroke of luck.
“Aunt Susan, Rick has sustained severe internal and external injuries, including damage to his heart.
But don’t worry. I’ll contact my mentor, Simon, right away. I’ll ask him to come and help us. I’ll do
everything I can to help save Rick. You don’t need to worry,” Pearl assured
Susan.
Susan’s fears were somewhat alleviated by Pearl’s reassurance, and she stopped crying. She then
noticed a man standing nearby, wearing a cap and a mask.
“And who might this be?”
“This is the man who saved me. His name is Drew Cooper,” Pearl explained.
Drew removed his mask and greeted Susan with a warm smile. “Hello, Madam. I’m Drew Cooper.”
Susan became flabbergasted. “You’re… Sean?”
Drew had anticipated this confusion. He shook his head and clarified, “No, Madam. I’m not Sean. I’m
Drew,”
Susan found it hard to believe. “You look so much like Sean. If you hadn’t told me, I’d think you were
him. Oh, yes, there’s a tear–shaped birthmark at the corner of Sean’s eye, but you don’t have it. Yes,
you’re not him.”
“Madam, may I ask when your son was born?”
“Eighteenth of March in the year 1999.”
Drew’s eyes lit up as he realized the uncanny coincidence. It was also his birthday. Sean was indeed
his older brother.
The
The thought excited him. “What a coincidence! Our birthdays are the same. My mother was pregnant
with twins at that time, and my brother didn’t survive. If the timing is right, I’d think that Sean and I are
twins…”
Drew marveled at the coincidence, but Susan’s heart turned cold. She couldn’t believe in such a
coincidence.
She recalled her pregnancy and the check ups, which had confirmed she was expecting only one child.
She couldn’t afford to lose another son, especially with Hugo’s betrayal and Richard’s critical condition
weighing heavily on her heart.
