The doctors looked at the electrocardiogram and were surprised to see a slight fluctuation where it had flatlined.
Seeing this, the head of the surgical department did not dare delay rescue efforts. “The patient shows signs of life. Hurry up and resuscitate him. Let’s make one last attempt.”
“Alright!”
“You two leave the operating room first. We will try resuscitating the patient one last time.”
“No. Im not leaving Doctor, please let me stay here with him.”
“No, you can’t stay here. Time waits for no one. Hurry up and get out.”
“Joann, let’s wait outside. If you stay here, the doctors will be distracted, Jaydon said, grabbing Joanna’s shoulder and quickly dragging her out with him.
“Apply the defibrillator and turn it up to maximum frequency.”
“Will do.”
“Bang! Bang!” Using the defibrillator on Bruce’s chest, the doctors continued to deliver shocks to his heart.
Bruce’s body was lifted into the air every time a shock was delivered.
The doctors continued their resuscitation efforts for 20 minutes.
Finally, Bruce recovered his pulse.
“Mr. Clayton, the patient’s pulse is recovered.”
“That’s great. Hurry up and continue the surgery.”
Joanna put her palms together outside the operating room and knelt on the ground.
“Please, gods, hear my prayers and let Bruce recover.
“As long as he wakes up, I’m willing to trade my life in return for his. I don’t want anything else. I want him to live.”
“Joann, get up quickly. You’re pregnant. Your body can’t bear such exertions.” Frowning, Jaydon tried to help Joanna up.
Jay, don’t mind me. Just let me be.”
Kneeling and her hands clasped together, Joanna prayed fervently.
“Tap, tap, tap” High heels tapping against the ground could be heard from the corridor’s end.
Jennie walked over with a sorrowful expression.
“Bruce Where is Bruce? I want to see him one last time.”
Seeing this, the butler and bodyguards stepped up to stop Jennie from advancing. “Miss Garcia, Mr. Everett is still undergoing operation. Please don’t make so much noise.”
Jennie suddenly cried when she heard this.
“What? Bruce is still under operation? Didn’t they say he’s already…”
Thinking that Bruce was already dead, she had rushed over to see him one last time.
“He is still in critical condition, and the doctors are trying to save him.”
Jennie heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that.
“That’s good, fat’s good. I was terrified. I thought Bruce had already… Jennie paused and quickly swallowed the rest of her
words.
At the same time, she saw Joanna kneeling outside by the operating room’s door as if atoning for her sins.
Jennie was instantly enraged and began screaming at Joanna, “Joanna, you damn bitch! It’s all your fault that Bruce is in this
state!
“If you didn’t deliberately disappear, Bruce wouldn’t have gone around looking for you, let alone meet with such a terrible
accident!
“How dare you stay here? Get lost!”
Joanna remained kneeling on the ground.
She was so focused on praying for Bruce that she didn’t have the energy to deal with Jennie.
Seeing Joanna’s lack of reaction, Jennie became even more excited. “What? Do you finally feel guilty now!
“Ha! So you know what guilt is? You and your sister are such jinxes!
“You should be the one to die. If I were you, I would have killed myself long ago. I would be too embarrassed to continue living!”
Joanna continued ignoring Jennie and turned a deaf ear to her scoldings.
“Joanna, you shameless vixen. Don’t play the victim here. Don’t think that Bruce will forgive you”
Jaydon couldn’t stand hearing Jennie anymore. “Miss Garcia, please watch your mouth.”
Jennie crossed her arms and glanced at Jaydon arrogantly. “Well, well. I was wondering who was speaking. So it’s you, Mr.
Grimm
“You adulterous couple! The gall of the two of you to remain here!”
Jaydon’s expression darkened, and his tone turned icy. “I’m warning you, don’t go overboard. Don’t think I shy away from hitting women like you.”
“Hmph Go ahead and hit me, then! Do you think I’m afraid of you?
“Bruce is in this state because of you two adulterers. It’s all your fault!
“The two of you have done so many despicable things. I’m shocked you two don’t find your behavior revolting. The gods. will punish you two for your sins. Even if they don’t, Bruce will surely seek revenge on you two even if he dies.”
Joanna’s eyes suddenly opened when she heard this,
She was so focused on praying for Bruce that she was not in the mood to argue with Jennie. However, she couldn’t stand Jennie making a scene and insulting her and Jaydon anymore.
“Slap” Joanna stood up and gave Jennie a hard slap on the face.
As Jennie was wearing high heels, she staggered back and almost fell to the ground.
“How dare you hit me?”
“Slap!” The crisp sound of another slap hitting Jennie’s face was heard.
Jennie lost her balance and fell heavily to the ground.
-Without giving Jennie a chance to get up, Joanna grabbed her hair and slapped her across the face several times.
Seeing this, Jimmy hurriedly stepped forward with two of Jennie’s assistants to stop Joanna. “What are you doing? How could you hit Jennie?”
Seeing Jimmy step forward, Carson and Darcy immediately stop the trio. Carson even pushed Jimmy on the chest, threateningly asking. “What do you think you’re doing
Carson, Darcy, and their companions were Bruce’s most capable bodyguards. Within their ranks were a world-class bare-knuckle boxing champion and another boxing champion.
Any one of them from within the group could fight ten men by themselves.
Frightened, Jimmy and Jennie’s two assistants dared not advance any further.
Joanna’s hands became sore after a few minutes of beating Jennie, and she finally stopped. “Who do you think you are? How dare you cause a scene here?”
Dazed from the beating. Jennie was speechless. She glared at Joanna angrily and hatefully.
Joanna’s hair was meny, and her hands and clothes were covered in Jennie’s blood. She looked fierce and terrifying
“Darcy kick them all out of the hospital”
“Understood
Darry inediately stepped forward. “Get out, get out! Get lost quickly!”
“Don’t push me! I can walk
“Joanna, remember this. I won’t let you off. I blame you for my brother’s death and the state Bruce is in”
Joanna stared coldly at Jennie “TIl be ready for you anytime.”
Jennie took a few deep breaths and quickly left with Jimmy.
Seven hours later, the door of the operating room opened again.
The doctors came out looking exhausted.
“Doctor, how is Bruce?” Joanna’s heart was beating wildly.
“Mr. Everett has recovered his heartbeat….”
“That’s great, that’s great!” Joanna could not help but cry tears of joy.
The doctor continued with a serious expression on his face, “But don’t be too optimistic.
“Although Mr. Everett has recovered, he has suffered many fractures all over his body. He has lost a lot of blood, and his brain has also suffered serious damage.
“In addition, he has also sustained damages to many organs. Therefore, the chances of him regaining consciousness is not high.”
