Instantly, the thief has disappeared!
Holding her hand and bearing the pain to get up from the ground, Amelia suddenly found Granny Hopper in pain, she rushed over and asked, "Granny, what's wrong with you?"
Standing up, Granny Hopper was half-crouched, her hands propped up on her knees, her body shaking, and upon hearing Amelia's concern, she struggled to say, "I'm... fine!"
But she looked uncomfortable at first glance, and Amelia asked in surprise, "Granny, are you suffering from high blood pressure? Where is your medicine?"
"The... the medicine... is in the wallet..." Granny Hopper said weakly.
On hearing that, Amelia felt bad because Granny Hopper's purse was left on the bus and her car keys and money were all taken by the damn thief, what should they do!
Fortunately, a kind middle-aged driver pulled up in front of Amelia, lowered the window, and let her rush to get Granny Hopper into the car. Then the man drove them to the hospital!
The driver helped Amelia hold Granny Hopper and move her to the car together. Then he drove them to the hospital!
In the hospital.
When Granny Hopper was pushed into the operating room by the doctor, Amelia immediately called Patrick with the hospital's phone number.
The call was quickly answered, and Amelia apprehensively explained what had happened to Patrick, who asked in a panicked voice, "What? You went to the supermarket to pick up my grandmother and she had an accident?"
"Well, there is a thief..."
Amelia was about to explain, but was interrupted by Patrick, "How do you take care of grandma? Don't you know that she has high blood pressure?"
"I..." His anger made her speechless. Through the phone, she could hear the sound of his slippers moving around. She guessed that he was going to come to the hospital in person to find out the truth.
Sure enough, in the next second, Patrick asked in a cold voice, "Which hospital are you in?"
Amelia quickly told him. In the end, she said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault..."
"That's enough! What I don't need the most is your apology, because it makes no sense!"
Then the phone was hung up.
Amelia felt embarrassed, and regretted to apologize to this terrible person!
Returning the phone to the counter, Amelia walked to the outside of the operating room. Just now Patrick's outburst was not the worst, what's worse was that Granny's attending physician asked her, "The patient has high blood pressure. Did she just have some kind of stimulus?"
Amelia nodded with concern.
The doctor continued, "The old lady's blood pressure has suddenly risen to a certain level, and critical illnesses such as delirium and convulsions can occur in severe cases..."
Amelia didn't expect things to get so serious, she was so nervous that her mind went blank, and then she hurriedly asked, "So what do we do now?"
"We can only wait for the rescue result", the doctor said, leaving Amelia standing helplessly in place.
When Patrick appeared in the corridor of the hospital, he saw the despondent face of Amelia leaning against the wall. He had a bad feeling about it.
