Chapter 649 When Andre arrived at the hospital, the surgery had been going on for several hours. Zack, who had been hiding in the shadows, briefed him on what happened and quickly returned to the cabin to deal with Elder and his gang who had hurt Griffon. Andre took Zack’s place and anxiously guarded the door of the operating room while calling Preston on the phone. Preston, who was in Finland setting up the proposal scene, dropped the bouquet of flowers in his hand when he received Andre’s call. Harper saw it and thought he was not working seriously. Just as she was about to reprimand him, she saw his handsome face turn pale. Harper put down the flower wreath and stood up, asking Preston, “What happened?” Preston grabbed Harper’s hand and uttered anxiously, “Griffon is seriously injured, the proposal is off. Let’s head back as soon as possible!” Harper’s heart ski pped a beat and asked, “What happened? Why did he suddenly get injured?” Preston led her quickly towards the airport and replied, “I don’t know yet. Let’s go back first…”
Before boarding the plane, Preston intercepted each of the Knight pack members who were on their way to Finland, and asked them to hurry to the hospital to check on Griffon’ condition. At Arcadia Hospital, the Knight pack who had come in succession stood on both sides of the operating room in silence, waiting. As a large pack that had weathered various storms, almost
everyone remained calm in the face of the unpredictable world, no matter glory or ruin. However, from their posture and their focused gaze on the door of the operating room, it was clear that the members of the Knight pack were worried about Griffon’ safety. As carts filled with various medicines and blood plasma entered and exited the operating room over the course of several hours, the pack members silently made way for them, not saying a word and standing as still as statues. At 8 pm, six hours after the surgery began, Mr. Brulee and chief surgeon walked out of the operating room looking exhausted. They removed their masks and spoke softly, but everyone could hear them clearly. “Alpha Knight has two knife wounds on his back, but they’re not very serious. The main issue is with his brain. He has suffered three impacts from an external force. Although we cleaned the blood clots in a timely manner, he is still in critical condition. If he doesn’t wake up within the next 48 hours, you should be prepared for the possibility of him falling into a deep coma…” Upon hearing this, Rebecca was in disbelief. The implication of severe coma meant that Griffon would probably be in a vegetative state! As the Alpha of the pack, if Griffon were to be in a vegetative state, who would take control of the powerful Knight pack? How could their grandfather, who was recuperating in Italy, bear the news that the pack heir he had nurtured had become like this? Rebecca looked at Mr. Brulee incredulously, but he dared not look her in the eye. She had a sense that something was amiss. Rebecca stepped forward in her high heels, and with a
commanding presence, she pressed Mr. Brulee, “Are you hiding something from us?” Mr. Brulee remembered Griffon’ instructions and shook his head hastily. Rebecca, however, was not convinced, and in a cold voice, she demanded, “Either you tell me now, or I’ll send someone to investigate. But if you choose the latter, your career will end here and now!” Under the pressure of Rebecca’s forceful voice, Mr. Brulee’s gloved hand began to tremble uncontrollably. So many doctors and nurses had participated in the surgery; it was unlikely that the truth could be hidden for long. After a moment of thought, Mr. Brulee finally chose to tell them the truth. “I previously examined Alpha Knight and found that he had a brain disease, a deep-seated intracranial tumor. Surgery would carry the risk of coma and hemiplegia, but Alpha Knight refused to undergo surgery and opted for conservative treatment. He also forbade me from telling anyone.” “In order to prevent everyone from worrying, he chose to go to Washington for treatment. We just communicated with the Washington hospital director and decided to perform a tumor resection surgery for Alpha Knight while handling the hematoma. Currently, the surgery has achieved the expected results, but due to his severe injuries, it may be difficult to wake up…”
