Chapter: 1144

Such phrases would seldom be uttered by doctors. They wouldn't say such things if they could rescue Victor. Victor couldn't be saved since they said it.

Carson lifted his head up. His eyes were red because he had stayed up too late and was exhausted.

He sat back and gazed at the ceiling.

"Vic, on the other hand, survived. Two days and two nights, Mrs. Sullivan stayed outside the operating room and waited. She had signed the critical illness notification six times at the time."

Rachel's recollection of Carolyn dwindled with time.

However, she was able to recall the scene in the garden where

Carolyn, dressed in a cheongsam, stood with a stick and smiled.

Rachel could not envision the situation when Carolyn stood outside the surgery room after hearing Carson's description.

Six critical illness notifications

She had only signed one of those. The moment she signed it, she was overcome with despair and found it difficult to take a breath. She couldn't even hold the pen in her hand.

At that moment, Carolyn had signed it six times and had been disappointed six times.

Rachel eventually managed to calm herself and ask, “How did he get harmed last time?"

"A kidnapping," Carson answered.

When Rachel heard the word, her heart fell.

"I thought he was sent to study abroad when he was fourteen, right?"

Rachel asked. How could Victor go overseas if he had been abducted and injured so severely?

"He was unable to leave the hospital for two years because of the abduction." Carson swiveled around to face Rachel.

"What do you think of the possibility of Victor studying abroad in such a situation?

Well, Mr. Sullivan hired someone to disguise as Victor and study abroad."

"What occurred after that? What happened to the kidnapper?" Rachel asked.

"He died today," Carson said, smiling.

"Today..." Rachel was rendered speechless. Did he mean that the mercenary who kidnapped Joey was the one who kidnapped Victor when he was young?

Taking out a ziplock in which a bullet shell was stored, Carson said,

“Well, this bullet was taken out of that person's body. I plan to give this bullet shell to Vic as a souvenir when he wakes up."

Rachel ignored his humorous remark and asked instead, “Why did they kidnap him?"
