When Averie woke up again, the doctor came immediately.
“Miss Tate, how are you feeling now? Can you try to speak?” The doctor whispered, “Your son has been watching you in the hospital day and night for four days. He has been waiting for you to wake up.”
Averie’s gaze shifted from the distracted state to the doctor’s face.
“Miss Tate, can you loosen this dress?” The doctor pointed to the men’s shirt in her hand.
The nurse changed her into hospital uniforms as early as the first day she was hospitalized, but she kept holding on to the men’s shirt and refused to let go.
There was Elyette’s breath on it, so even if she wasn’t fully awake, she wouldn’t let go of this dress.
“I don’t mean anything else. This dress is quite dirty. You can take it to wash for your family.” Seeing that she didn’t speak, the doctor could only find other topics to cut into.
Averie tried to move her arm.
She raised her arm holding the shirt, and when she saw Elyette’s shirt, her eyes were lost, and her voice was hoarse: “I’m still… alive?”
“Of course. I heard that you were trapped under a bungalow in the suburbs. Your son rescued you. Your son is really capable.” The doctor praised, “He not only has the ability, but also filial piety. Miss Tate, you must take good care of your body. Your blessings will not be enjoyed in the future. Exhausted.”
She pursed her lips and asked, “How many days did I stay in the basement?”
“Six days.”
Averie’s eyes were flushed, and she was glad that Hayden had saved his life.
“Where’s Elyette?” After confirming that she was still alive, she was most worried about him.
The expression on the doctor’s face suddenly became stiff and unnatural.
Averie caught the subtle expression on the doctor’s face, and the alarm bell rang in his heart.
“Doctor, what’s wrong with him? You tell me…” Averie’s face flushed with excitement.
She even tried to sit up on the bed, but was unable to succeed because her body was so weak.
“Miss Tate, it’s up to your friend to tell you this!” The doctor couldn’t bear to tell her the truth, “It’s not that I don’t tell you, it’s about Mr. Foster, I really don’t understand.”
“Why don’t you understand?” Averie asked with tears in her eyes, “Could it be that he has been assigned to another doctor?”
“Hey! Miss Tate, only you have been rescued. As far as I know, they haven’t found Mr. Foster yet.” The doctor said here, not daring to continue talking to her. Because her tears had flowed down the corners of her eyes.
“Miss Tate, I’ll transfer you to the general ward first. Your relatives and friends all want to see you very much.” The doctor said softly, “You are still very weak, so it’s not suitable for you to be so sad.”
Averie didn’t hear the doctor’s advice. All she heard was ‘you were the only one rescued’ and ‘they haven’t found Mr. Foster’.
Why is this happening?
She and Elyette were clearly trapped in the basement together. Why did they only rescue her but not Elyette?
After she was transferred to the general ward, Ben Schaffer and Chad stood by the hospital bed, looking at her expectantly.
Her bodyguard suddenly ‘thumped’ and knelt in front of her hospital bed.
“Boss! I’m sorry! I didn’t protect you! I almost lost your life!” The bodyguard said, crying.
Ben Schaffer and Chad looked at the bodyguard with a look of astonishment.
Averie’s attention was forcibly attracted.
“Boss, it’s fortunate that you didn’t die! Fortunately, you survived! Otherwise, I’ll be to blame!” The bodyguard cried and wiped away tears.
Chad glanced at Averie’s face, and then reprimanded the bodyguard in a low voice: “She has just been transferred from the intensive care unit, and no one is awake yet. You are so noisy, you are not afraid to scare her out?”
Ben Schaffer hair hurts: “You go out first. Don’t come in without orders.”
The bodyguard immediately got up from the ground and said to Averie with a look of guilt: “Boss, I’m going to guard outside. You can call me at any time if you have anything.”
After the bodyguard left, the ward door is closed.
Hayden was called by the doctor, so now only Ben Schaffer and Chad were watching Averie in the ward.
“The doctor said that you only rescued me out? What’s going on?” Averie looked at the two of them while holding back his grief.
“When we entered the basement, you were the only one inside.” Ben Schaffer said, “There are two exits in the basement. The exit on the manhole cover was welded to death. The other exit was locked from the outside. Averie, listen. What do you mean by what you just said, before you passed out, you were trapped in the basement with Elyette, right?”
Averie choked and said hoarsely, “Well. The woman who exposed the corpse pit is called Sasha. She tricked me and Elyette into that basement… She said that Haze was in that basement, so we both went down. After we went down, we found that we were cheated. When we wanted to go out, we found that the exit was blocked. “
When Averie said this, tears fell.
“It’s almost as I guessed. There must be someone behind this Sasha. They must have taken Elyette away.” Ben Schaffer gritted his teeth, “Averie, take care of your illness, we will do our best to find Elyette.
The light in it dissipated little by little.
Now Averie doesn’t even know who is behind Sasha, how can she imagine Elyette’s current situation?
Thinking of the grief, Averie seemed to be strangled and breathless.
After seeing the doctor, Hayden entered the ward. Seeing that his mother was crying, he immediately trotted to the bedside.
“Mom! Don’t cry!”
Hayden took the tissue from Chad, trying to wipe his mother’s tears.
But Averie pushed his hand away.
“…I’m going to find Elyette…I want to see his person, but I want to see his body…” Averie grabbed Elyette’s white shirt, Put it on her lips and hide the cry.
Even though his clothes were already dirty, there was still his breath on them. This was the only thing he had left for her before he disappeared.
“Mom, Uncle Schaffer and Uncle Nick have already sent someone to look for him.” Hayden sat down beside the hospital bed, pulled his mother’s hand away from his face, and gently wiped the tears on her face with a tissue in the other hand. “I’ve booked a special plane to return to Bridgedale today. I’ll take you home first.”
“I’m not going home…I’m not going anywhere…” Averie refused Hayden’s arrangement without thinking, “I want to find your father…I want get him back!”
Averie’s voice was hoarse and her emotions were out of control.
Ben Schaffer patted Hayden on the shoulder: “Hayden, you go to the hotel to rest first, we will persuade your mother.”
Hayden didn’t want to leave his mother, and was afraid that after leaving his mother, his mother would disappear again.
“You are obedient. Your mother can’t be stimulated now, but your father’s affairs have made her stimulated… No matter what she says now, we must follow her.” Ben Schaffer pulled Hayden to the door of the ward Outside, he whispered, “You go back to the hotel with the bodyguard to rest first. I and your Uncle Chad will definitely persuade her to recuperate.”
“I want to take my mother back to Bridgedale for treatment.” Hayden expressed his thoughts.
“Hayden, Aryadelle is your mother’s hometown. Even if your mother wants to go home for treatment, she will return to Aryadelle. Your younger siblings have already returned to Aryadelle.” Ben said, “I know you don’t want to be separated from your mother, but you Respect your mother’s thoughts.”
Hayden pursed his lips, and after being silent for a while, he turned and left.
He is not good at coaxing people, and his mother’s emotions are too intense now, and he is a little overwhelmed.
After Hayden left, Ben Schaffer returned to the ward and closed the door of the ward.
“Averie, we have already sent someone to find my boss. No matter what the result is, we will devote the greatest human and material resources to find him. So you can take care of your health and leave the rest to us.” In the chair beside the bed, Ben comforted Averie, “It’s a big surprise that you can turn the corner into safety now. Hayden hasn’t slept well all these days after your accident. Mike didn’t dare to tell Layla and Robert what happened to you.”
“Averie, Nick has sent someone to Sasha’s hometown to find Sasha’s whereabouts. We also sent others to find Elyette in major cities in Yonroeville…” Ben Schaffer looked at her, exhaled, “If we can’t find Elyette, you probably won’t find it either. Your children are still young and need your company. I told Hayden that when you get better, I will send you back to Aryadelle. Layla and Robert have already started school. They are used to having Elyette around, but now Elyette is not around, so you can go back and accompany them, okay?”
Averie closed her eyes, and her tears couldn’t stop falling. She couldn’t hear a word of their consolation.
She carefully recalled in her mind what happened before she fell into a coma. Did she miss any key clues…
The harder she thought, the more her head hurt.
From the first night they were trapped in the basement, her stamina couldn’t hold up.
She only remembered that she had been lying in Elyette’s arms, because she was afraid that it would not last long, so she tried her best not to speak and save her strength.
But even so, she fainted.
She didn’t know that she passed out on the first few days of being trapped. At that time, she had no strength to look for her mobile phone, nor did she want to check it, because the mobile phone ran out of electricity on the second day they were trapped.
“If Elyette is dead…I can’t live…” Averie opened her tears suddenly and said these words of despair.
She was always reminded of what they had said on the first day they were trapped in the basement.
At that time, she deliberately didn’t tell him that there was a special positioning chip in her mobile phone. As long as Hayden knew that she was missing, he would definitely come to her.
Averie didn’t tell Elyette because she wanted to test his sincerity.
