Chapter 283
Chapter 283
Kimberly did not care about them at all. She insisted on waiting at the entrance of the emergency room. She would only leave after knowing that Sylvia was fine.
The mobile phone in her hand vibrated. Kimberly looked at it and realized that the screen of her mobile phone was also covered with blood. It looked like Juliette was calling her.
Kimberly grabbed the hem of her clothes and wiped the blood off her screen. However, the more she wiped it, the dirtier it became, because the clothes were stained with blood as well. In the end, Kimberly answered the phone call first.
"Hello?"
Kimberly's voice was still trembling as she spoke.
"Miss Shell? Was it you who sent Mr. Hanover a message just now?" Juliette asked for confirmation.
"Yes," Kimberly responded. She took a deep breath, trying to make herself sound calm, "Are you on the way here?"
The other side of the call was silent for a while. Then, she heard the mature voice of a man.
"I'm on the way there. Tell me what happened."
Kimberly wanted to tell him. However, she couldn't bring herself to say the words.
She couldn't calm herself down enough to tell Quill that Sylvia tried to commit suicide. She still couldn't believe that everything that happened just now was real.
Thinking of this, she closed her eyes and said tiredly, "You'll know when you come over. I won't lie to you. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the emergency room."
After that, Kimberly hung up the call before he could begin asking her anything else.
'Toot toot-'
Seeing Kimberly hanging up the phone, Quill frowned.
Sitting beside him, Juliette looked at Quill doubtfully and asked, "Mr. Hanover?"
Quill came back to his senses. He glanced at Juliette and said, "Hurry up, we're going to the hospital now!"
Juliette nodded and talked to the driver in front of her, "Mr. Lowell, please drive faster."
"Okay."
Both of them were anxious. Kimberly did not say anything else. She just asked Quill to rush to the hospital because something happened to his sister.
Also, Kimberly's voice was trembling. Something serious must have happened.
'Perhaps...' Juliette thought to herself.
As time went by, Kimberly felt as if she had been waiting for a year. She looked at the corridor countless times, but Quill was still nowhere to be seen. She was extremely anxious.
Kimberly felt that she must call Sylvia's family over. She saw how much Sylvia had lost, and was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
Kimberly had so many regrets. She wished she could have arrived at the hotel earlier. Why did she walk so slowly?
Kimberly heard a pair of steady footsteps and the clatter of high heels coming towards her as she dwelled on her thoughts. Kimberly looked up at the end of the corridor and saw two familiar figures.
Quill and Juliette were here.
Quill had always been a very steady person. When Kimberly saw him, she didn't know why, but she felt like she had seen a close relative. She almost couldn't hold her tears back anymore. She bit her lips and turned around, trying hard to stop the tears from rolling down her cheeks. She avoided making eye contact with Quill.
She felt that she was acting very rudely.
Quill was Sylvia's elder brother. Why did Kimberly always treat him as her own elder brother? Sylvia would definitely make fun of Kimberly if she knew it.
"What's going on?"
Quill's voice pierced through Kimberly's thoughts. Someone grabbed her shoulders and turned her around. Their eyes met, Quill was looking straight at her.
Kimberly felt safe when Quill was beside her. She felt like Quill was her family member.
Kimberly found it harder to hold back her tears now. She bit her lower lip and couldn't say a word. Tears kept rolling down her cheeks.
Seeing Kimberly crying so badly, and noticing her body covered with blood, Quill's heart ached. It felt like someone had jabbed a sharp knife into his heart.
Seeing Kimberly like this, Juliette knew that Kimberly couldn't tell the whole story now. She looked at George, who was standing next to her, and said, "Please tell us if you know what happened."
George was not really clear about the whole story. He briefly explained everything that happened, starting from the moment he went out in the morning until the moment they arrived at the hospital. Juliette and Quill were standing together, listening to George.
Quill frowned, "So the person in the emergency room, that's Sylvia?"
Kimberly nodded and said, "I'm sorry. If I found out earlier, maybe..."
Quill interrupted Kimberly and said, "Let's wait for the doctor first. You have to wash yourself up. Juliette."
Juliette came back to her senses and stepped forward to hold Kimberly, "Miss Shell, let me help you wash up. Mr. Hanover is here. Please don't worry."
"Okay."
Kimberly felt much more relieved when Quill was here. She nodded and left with Juliette. Juliette took Kimberly to a nearby hotel and let her take a bath. After that, Juliette went to a nearby store to buy a set of clothes in Kimberly's size and took them back to the hotel so that she would have something to change into after her bath.
There was too much blood on Kimberly's body. It took a long time for her to wash all the blood off. After her bath, she changed into the clothes that Juliette had bought for her. She uttered anxiously, "Let's go to the hospital now."
"Miss Shell, please don't worry. I have already contacted Mr. Hanover. Miss Hanover is now still in the emergency room. You can't visit Miss Hanover even if you're in the hospital now. You can only wait outside the emergency room. I think you're frightened by what happened just now. Why don't
you have a good rest here? I'll bring you to the hospital when Miss Hanover has regained her consciousness."
"No way!" Kimberly immediately refuted. "I want to personally verify that Sylvia is fine for myself. She lost a lot of blood."
Juliette looked at Kimberly and realized that her face was paler than before. Moreover, her voice was still trembling. It was obvious that she was still very worried for Sylvia. Perhaps she would've still been waiting in front of the emergency room covered in blood if Mr. Hanover hadn't appeared. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Miss Shell, I understand what you're thinking. However, you are not in a good place now. You really shouldn't..."
"Are you worried that I will fall sick and you have to take care of me? Don't worry, I won't get sick so easily, even if it is for Sylvia. I'm fine.1' After saying that, Kimberly stepped forward and took Juliette's hand, "Let me go with you."
Juliette hesitated. However, Kimberly was determined to go to the hospital.
Juliette really couldn't bear to reject her.
"Secretary Sharpio!"
Seeing that Juliette hadn't answered her for a long time, Kimberly called her name. Juliette replied helplessly, "I don't know what else to do. Let's go now."
"Thank you!" Kimberly cried with joy. Then, she left the hotel with Juliette.
When they arrived at the hospital, Kimberly saw Quill standing in front of the emergency room. He was leaning against the wall, one hand in his pocket. His eyes were closed, as if he was thinking of something.
