Always Been Yours

Chapter 1257

Stefania and Timothy were also staring at the doctor in trepidation. Timothy felt a strange sense of uneasiness. “How’s my sister, doctor?” he urged as well.

The doctor looked at them. He was feeling grim as well, but he didn’t clarify Tessa’s condition. He simply said, “We will definitely do our best to save the patient.”

Then, he went back into the surgical theater. The others carried out waiting apprehensively outside. Nicholas leaned against the wall. If he didn’t, he probably would’ve collapsed onto the floor.

Even though the doctor didn’t say anything explicitly, Nicholas knew that Tessa’s condition had to be extremely critical.

He closed his eyes to resist the turmoil he felt. He kept trying to convince himself.

“Tessa will be fine. She promised me that we’ll grow old together. We’ll watch the children grow up together.”

Everyone else was overwrought with emotions as they witnessed the despairing state

Nicholas was in Kieran was the most affected by it. It was his first time seeing his brother in this state. In the past, Nicholas was always firm and cool- headed regardless of how dire the situation seemed.

His heart ached for Nicholas as he went forward and said, “Take a seat and get some rest first, Nicholas.” “No. I’m going to wait until Tessa comes out.”

Nicholas limply pushed away Kieran’s hand as he mumbled, “I have to wait until she comes out.”

“Tessa will be alright. You’re too wound up, Nicholas. Listen to me and get some rest first. I’m sure Tessa wouldn’t want to see you like this when she comes out.”

Kieran kept trying to convince Nicholas, but Nicholas ignored him and kept standing wordlessly by the wall. Timothy’s eyes reddened.

He knew that Tessa was most likely in a critical condition, and he was filled with worry.

Tessa was the closest person to him in the whole world.

He always considered it his responsibility to protect his sister, but disaster struck before he could do anything! “You have to be okay, Tess. You said you’ll be there at my wedding. You said you want to see your nieces and nephews…”

He choked up. Sabrina sensed the deep sorrow that was emanating from Timothy, so she stood beside him and gently patted his back. “Tess will be fine, Timothy. You must have faith in her.”

“You’re right. I need to have faith in her. She couldn’t bear to leave us.” Timothy nodded heavily, but his tears kept falling.

Sabrina had never seen Timothy in such a state before. Her heart ached at the sight.

Stefania and Tobias had grim expressions as well. Stefania was especially anxious.

“Dear, do you think Tessa will make it?”

“She has always been a strong one. I’m sure she will make it for the children’s sake, and for Nicholas’ sake too,” Tobias replied gravely.

Gregory continued silently shedding tears as he listened to what the adults were saying. “Don’t leave me, Mommy. I’ll be a good boy.” The atmosphere in the corridor was somber.

Everyone hoped that Tessa would be alright. Inside the surgical theater, things were getting a lot more desperate. Tessa had lost too much blood and the hospital’s blood bank didn’t have enough suppliesAll content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

for her blood type.

The doctor had no choice but to come out and explain the situation. “We’ve already arranged for blood to be brought over from a different hospital, but it will take some time.”

“How can you not have enough supplies in your blood bank? Doesn’t your hospital check these things? Nicholas fumed at the doctor with a stormy expression.

Timothy was shaking and he fixed his eyes on the doctor as he asked, “What will happen to my sister if there’s not enough blood for her?”

“The patient… might die from losing too much blood.” The doctor hesitated before giving an honest answer. This was the last straw. Nicholas, who had been silent all this while, finally started lashing. out.

“What kind of doctors are you? You’re supposed to save her, but you keep saying you can’t do this, or you don’t have that! I’m telling you right now. If you don’t save my wife, I’ll make all of you pay!”
