Chapter: 855
Joey had wanted to ask something for a long time, but had never seen an opening. He seized this one without hesitation and said, "I heard that Mr. Sullivan abandon that child. Is that true?"
"No! He couldn't have done that! Where is this coming from?" Lukas frowned and shook his head.
"If Mr. Sullivan could have sacrificed his own life to save that of the child, he would have done so without thinking twice!"
Joey desperately wanted to believe Lukas, but he found it very difficult, and it saddened him.
“But he signed the notice for the operation, didn't he?"
Lukas was so stunned hearing this from Joey that, he couldn't formulate an answer instantly. He wondered how Joey could have found out about that. Recovering from the shock, he said, “He did. And that was the first time Ivan and I ever saw Mr. Sullivan cry. I can't say Mr. Sullivan didn't sign the notice for the operation because he did so himself. But you have to understand that it was in a critical situation and he had no choice. If he didn't sign it, then both Miss Bennet and the child would have lost their lives. I can still remember how Mr. Sullivan's hands trembled when he signed iso
Lukas looked into Joey's eyes.
“After he signed it, the nurse entered the operating room with the notice for the operation.
He said, ‘If the child can't be saved, then that means I can't be with her.' I don't think I had ever seen him look so broken."
Since so many people went in and out of the hospital, the news of
Victor's injury and hospitalization spread like wildfire.
So for several days, reporters set camp outside the inpatient building. They tried to get Victor's current status from the doctors or nurses who passed by.
Ivan stood beside the bed with an iPad. After getting done with work, he looked at the photos sent by the bodyguard. He frowned and hesitated.
As Victor signed the last document, he sensed Ivan's hesitation.
After he closed the file and handed it to Ivan, he asked, "What's the matter? Tell me."
"Mr. Sullivan, I'm not sure who leaked the news to the press that you're hospitalized. For the past two days, many reporters have parked themselves downstairs. Also, many articles have appeared on the Internet." Since Victor asked him, Ivan didn't hesitate to tell him.
Victor got out of bed. Since he had been resting for several days, his injury got better. He could no longer feel the pain when he walked.
He strode to the balcony and looked at the scene below.
It had rained continuously for two days, and the temperature dropped down several degrees. Ivan hurried over to hand him a coat.
"Mr.
Sullivan, it's cold. You better put on your coat."
As Victor took the coat, he looked away from the reporters downstairs.
He asked, "What is the internet saying?"
“Actually.." Once again, Ivan hesitated.
Victor turned around and looked at Ivan.
