  • If Life Had A Rewind Button   Chapter 114 Overcrowded

    Jasper was pacing up and down in the waiting room, his scrubs damp with sweat and his arms still feeling the weight of where he had held his wife just moments ago.He was a man trained to save lives, yet he was powerless to help as his wife and their first child fought for stability behind those closed doors.After two agonizing hours of pacing, Jasper finally saw Dr Brands emerge from the emergency room. Her face was weary but held a flicker of relief as she approached them.Dr Brands smiled and said, placing a reassuring hand on Jasper’s shoulder, "We have managed to save your baby, Dr Finch. The baby’s heartbeat is strong. The stress was a significant blow to your wife’s system.I am admitting her to the high-risk maternity wing for observation. She needs absolute bed rest and zero excitement for the next few days."Jasper felt the air finally rush back into his lungs, his knees nearly buckling with the sheer weight of the relief, and he replied, “Thank you so much, Dr Brands, for

    In a world where every move of the elite was scrutinized, the total silence surrounding the passing of one of the nation's wealthiest men was deafening.Maddox looked at Harvey with a confused expression and asked, “Do you think the Pearson family is keeping the news of Mr Pearson’s death a secret to protect Zara, Harvey?”Harvey nodded his head and replied, "A man that powerful doesn't just vanish without a headline, Maddox. It is clear that the Pearson family is scared that if the news breaks, it won’t just be a headline; it might send Zara to her grave.”Maddox looked at Harvey and said, “I need to be there for Mr Pearson’s final send-off. I will reach out to Gemma’s husband, Jasper. He is bound to have the logistics even if the rest of the world is being kept in the dark.”Harvey nodded his head and replied, “That’s a good idea, Maddox.” Maddox pulled out his phone and dialed Jasper’s number.When Jasper saw Maddox’s name on the screen, he answered with a tone that was more guarded

    The first nurse exchanged a quick, panicked glance with her colleague, her mind racing. Then she decided to tell a white lie, her voice barely a whisper. "We don’t know, Dr Graham. We haven't said a word to her.We were checking her vital signs, and she suddenly became distressed. We think she might have had a nightmare or a reaction to the sedation wearing off."The second nurse nodded her head, her eyes fixed on the floor, and said, "Miss Pearson started calling her father’s name. We were as shocked as you are, Dr Graham."Dr Graham’s gaze softened slightly as he looked from the trembling nurses back to the monitor. He knew the environment Zara had come from.His hand adjusted the sedative flow and muttered, "It makes sense. The trauma of the prison mauling, combined with the dissociative effects of the anesthesia, her subconscious is likely manifesting her deepest fears."The nurses heaved a sigh of relief when they heard the doctor’s words. They had successfully shifted the blame f

    Lawyer Marsh didn’t mince his words and replied, “Please be mentally prepared, Prosecutor Long. I am officially notifying you that we are suing the state for Mr Pearson’s wrongful death.You ignored the medical bail, you ignored the stroke, and you sent your independent medical vultures to a man who was already slipping away.” Then he dropped the phone.Prosecutor Long slumped back in his chair, the phone still pressed to his ear long after Lawyer Marsh had hung up.He looked down at the medical report from his own independent medical evaluator and realized it was now the primary evidence against him and murmured, “It’s over.”He pulled out his phone, his hands shaking as he dialed Samantha Cooper’s number. When the call was connected, he yelled into the receiver the moment Samantha answered, “What were you thinking, Samantha Cooper?Why did you push me to appoint that independent medical expert, Samantha? Was this all part of some twisted plot to avenge the Stanton family? How could
