“Then what can we do?” Elizabeth felt very helpless. She wanted to help, but she didn’t know what she could do, so she was very anxious but couldn’t do anything.
Theresa comforted her, “The doctor said there is a good chance of him waking up, let’s wait a little longer.”
“Really?” Elizabeth clutched Theresa’s hand as if she was a lifesaver.
Theresa replied with certainty, “Yes.”
She turned her head to look at the bed. The person on the bed did not have any trace of movement, as if he was deeply asleep, even when Elizabeth was crying loudly and seemed so worried, he still did not move at all.
Theresa was not sure too, and she also didn’t know when he would wake up.
She didn’t think too much. She just didn’t want Armand to be caught in the middle again, “If he can wake up sooner, I am willing… I’m willing to let him find others.”
She crossed her bottom line. She would have been unable to accept someone to bear her child, even if it was just borrowing someone else belly, she was still unwilling to accept it.
In her opinion, she would have preferred adoption.
Elizabeth froze for quite some time. She seemed shocked and didn’t understand what she meant. She grabbed Theresa’s hand and trembled constantly. After a long time, she said, “Thank you, thank you.” Even though things had already gone into this kind of situation, Elizabeth was still thinking that the Bernie family must have their own heirs.
It could be seen that how important it is to her whether the Bernie family could have an heir.
Boyce had been standing outside for a while, and he heard all of their conversations. He let out a deep breath.
He came in, “Theresa, you take Elizabeth to eat something. You should eat something too. I will stay here and look after him.”
Theresa said, “You can take her to eat and I’ll stay here.”
“You’d better go and eat something, you have to keep watch at night. You’ll be too tired then. Listen to me, you should go take some rest and eat something. You can come back later.” Boyce pulled her. Theresa could only agree and said, “Then what do you want to ear, I’ll bring you some.”
“I’ll go back and eat.” Boyce thought that Jasmine would be at home.
Theresa said, “Okay.”
She pushed Elizabeth out and Boyse watched them walked away. He closed the door and walked to the hospital bed. He touched Armand with his hand, “Stop pretending, they are gone.”
He really admired Armand’s weird thoughts. He was already deeply injured but he still could come out with such ideas.
That night, he and Cormac waited here. He was already out of danger when he came out of the operating room. Armand frowned, “You hurt me.”
He was really injured, and his injuries were quite serious, but his condition was not life-threatening nor comatose.
This was all his plan. He wanted Theresa and Elizabeth to give in.
Unexpectedly, Theresa gave in first.
He sighed in his heart and decided to treat Theresa better.
Boyce pulled out a chair and sat down, “Mind your attitude.”
Armand smiled, “Theresa is more soft-hearted. Unlike the old lady of my family, her heart is as hard as a stone. She didn’t give in even though I’m already seriously injured.”
Boyce poked him in the wound, “Stop pretending to be innocent after you’ve gained an advantage.”
“Ouch! Ouch! Oh, shit, I’m really in pain.” Armand’s eyebrows twisted together and he screamed in pain.
Boyce showed some mercy and asked him. “When do you plan to wake up? Your goal has been achieved.”
Armand said as he thought, “For the sake of reality, I can’t wake up so quickly. Otherwise, they will find out that I was pretending, so I must wait for another two or three days.”
Boyce looked at him, “You rascal, how can you think of such ideas?”
“I am smart. Can you understand what ‘smart’ is?” Now, Armand was very proud of himself, he would not have to suffer from being caught in the middle again. Plus, he also won his girl back.
“I’m telling Theresa and Elizabeth now. Let’s see if you can continue to be smug or not.” Boyce pretended to leave.
Armand grabbed him, “Don’t go, don’t go. I was wrong.”
“By the way, you have to treat me with a dinner and Lafite from the year 1982 when you recovered.” Boyce still remembered that Armand took advantage of him before. Now, he had to revenge when he had the opportunity.
Armand said, “Okay, I’ll treat you two bottles of Lafite.”
Spending a little money to solve a major problem was not a big deal to Armand.
Boyce hummed, “Does this indicates that one is bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster?”
Armand said without modesty, “It should be.”
“Mind your attitude.” Boyce could not stand Armand’s puffed-up appearance.
Boyce put on a serious attitude and said, “By the way, your driving license has to be suspended and you need to compensate 12, 000 dollars.”
The other party was also injured. The car was sent to the repair shop, the fees must be paid by Armand. The reason was Armand drank and drove, so the insurance company would not pay the money. Armand said, “I know. Those are small matters.”
He even solved the most difficult problems already.
Who would still care about these little things?
It was not even considered as a matter to him.
Boyce asked, “What do you want to eat…” Squeak…
Right at this moment, the door of the room opened.000000
Boyce stopped talking in time, but Theresa who came in still heard it. She looked at the room and saw no one else. She asked, “Who are you talking to?” “I… Did I talk?” Boyce pretended to be calm.
Theresa nodded with certainty, “You did talk. You said ‘what do you want to eat. You are hungry?”
“No, you must have heard wrongly.” Boyce touched his nose and denied it. Theresa felt strange. She did not have a hearing hallucination, so Boyce was really talking. She looked at Armand on the bed. He was still in a coma.
“Why are you back so soon? Have you eaten?” Boyce looked at the time. It was only ten minutes since she left. Obviously, it was not enough time for her to eat.
Theresa had actually arrived at the restaurant, but she forgot to take her phone and wallet, so she came back to get her things. Elizabeth was still there and not willing to eat. Hence, she needed to go back and persuade her again.
“No.” Theresa picked up her phone and wallet from the table and showed them to Boyce, “I got to the restaurant before I realized that I didn’t have any money to pay.”
Boyce understood, “Go back quickly then. I’ll stay here and watch.”
Theresa nodded. She was still puzzled. She took a look at the bad and saw Armand still in a coma. She could not figure out what had happened. Boyce was clearly talking just now. “Boyce, what do you want to eat? I’ll buy some food for you, okay?” asked Theresa.
Boyce said, “I really don’t need to eat, I have someone at home.”
