Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom

Chapter 382

Half an hour later, Elijah got a call from his brother Travis.

"Elijah! Get your butt to the hospital! Mom just took a tumble at home, and her condition isn't looking

too hot!"

Elijah's grip on his cell tightened. He bolted from his office, making a beeline for the elevator.

Joey saw his ashen face, worry gnawing at him. What happened?

"Should we postpone the next meeting?"

"Let the deputy handle it. Have the meeting minutes sent to me later." Elijah said before stepping into

the CEO's elevator.

The elevator doors slowly closed, and Joey felt an uneasy twinge. Elijah rarely showed this kind of

tension at work.

Hospital.

Grace was rushed into the ER. When Elijah arrived, the ER doors were still tightly shut.

"What happened?" He looked ghastly as he turned to Travis.

"I wasn't home... Kaleb said he heard mom scream. When he rushed out of his room, he saw mom at

the bottom of the stairs."

Elijah frowned, "She fell from the second floor? What was she doing up there?!"

Grace was getting on in years and her mobility wasn't great, hence she lived on the first floor.

Travis was in agony, "I don't know! I wasn't there... Mom doesn't stay on the second floor, but she likes Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

to walk around the house."

"Where was the nanny?! Didn't she keep an eye on her?!" Elijah's voice rose in anger.

Grace had high blood pressure. She couldn't afford to fall!

"I rushed to the hospital as soon as Kaleb called me. I didn't have time to grill the house staff!" Travis

was on the verge of tears, "Kaleb, tell your uncle what happened."

Kaleb's eyes were red and puffy. "I was asleep at home. After hearing grandma's scream, I ran out to

find her on the floor. The nanny was just crying. I didn't have time to question her, I just dialed 911."

Elijah tensed up, his fists clenched tight.

Kaleb wiped the tears from his eyes, "I'll go home now and question the nanny. See what really

happened."

After Kaleb left, Travis stood anxiously by the ER door.

Elijah stood stiffly on the other side. He thought back to the last time he saw his mother. It was when

Sarah had a miscarriage. They had a conversation then. He told her he'd find another doctor to treat

Makayla. She was happy and said she wouldn't force him to stay with Sarah anymore. She was always

like that. She seemed strong, but always compromised with him. He wasn't good at expressing his

feelings, so he rarely said warm words to her. But that didn't mean he didn't love her.

After a while, the door of the ER was pushed open. The medical staff came out.

Instantly, the wails of Travis and his wife echoed in the corridor. New chаpter avąilable on

Elijah trudged into the ER. His mother's face was pale. Her eyes were wide open, as if there were still

unfulfilled wishes .

He gently tried to close her eyes with his hand. But, her eyes wouldn't close.

He held her cold hand tightly, his voice hoarse, "Mom, do you have anything to tell me?"

There was no response.
