“What?!” Claire shrieked in panic. “How’s Dad? Where are you now?”
Elaine’s trembling voice echoed with a mixture of shock and sobbing. “We’re at Silverwing Hospital.
Your dad was unconscious after the accident, come here quick!”
Never did Claire expect to receive such bad news when she was celebrating the grand opening with
joy…
She cried into the phone, “Okay, I’ll go there right now!”
Charlie heard the conversation clearly and realized the seriousness of the matter. He turned to the
guests and said, “I’m sorry guys, Claire and I have to leave immediately. Please make yourself
comfortable here!”
Under normal circumstances, it would be rude for the host to leave the guests aside, but since these
people were Charlie’s fans, they didn’t mind it.
Hence, Charlie drove his wife straight to the hospital.
After he parked the car at the parking spot, they quickly went straight to the ICU.
They pushed the ward door open and saw Jacob lying on the bed with his eyes closed tightly. He was
in a coma. Elaine sat by the bed, staring at her husband in a daze. There were bloodstains on her body
and her face as pale as a sheet of paper.
Blood drained from Claire’s face, her eyes filled with tears. She rushed to their side and asked
anxiously, “Mom, how’s Dad? What happened?”
Elaine’s eyes were swollen and red. She said with a sob, “We were on the way to your opening
ceremony when a muck truck ran the red light and crashed into our car. Your dad is in a very critical
condition now.”
Claire turned to the doctor who stood in the ward. “Doctor, how’s my father?”
The doctor answered, “Don’t worry, he’s in a stable condition for the time being.”
Claire and Charlie heaved a sigh of relief.
After a short pause, the doctor said again, hesitating, “But…”
Claire frowned in confusion. “But what?”
The doctor sighed and continued, “But the patient’s spine was injured in the accident and he might be a
quadriplegic when he wakes up…”
Quadriplegic—paralysed from the neck down.
In that case, he would become a living dead who has lost the ability to function independently, which is
only slightly better than a vegetative person.
Upon hearing the news, Claire felt dizzy all of a sudden, as if the sky was spinning right before her
eyes. She would have collapsed to the floor if Charlie hadn’t been swift enough to hold her.
If her father really became quadriplegic, it meant that he could only lie in bed and lose the ability to
function. He could do nothing!
It was a living hell!
She quickly asked, “Doctor, is there any way to cure the spinal injury?”
The doctor shook his head. “Basically, there isn’t a cure. To date, there are no cases of quadriplegics
who have been cured. The best we can do is have the patient sit up by himself and the rest is out of
our hands. It’s best for you to be mentally prepared…”
Claire’s tears flowed like rivers. Then, she turned to Elaine and asked, “Mom, are you okay?”
