Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 428

Chuck's words hit Harry hard. He grabbed him by his collar, looked into his eyes and snapped at him. "What do you mean by 'breathing her last'? You said she had 24 hours!"

Jordan immediately dragged him away from Chuck. The doctor was actually as upset as him. "She might not be able to pull through," Chuck said sadly. As a doctor, he had seen many lives come and go, but it was difficult for him to see his good brother's grief and her death… the woman he had been in love with before…

Harry wildly pushed him away and rushed into the ICU. He bent over her and anxiously looked at her. She was lying on the bed, still unconscious.

His eyes reddened. "Lola Li! Wake up! You can't just keep lying there!" He cried, agony in his voice. He took her limp hand. She looked so frail.

Chuck went to him, and took him by the arm. He gently comforted him, "Harry, calm down."

"Didn't you say 24 hours? Why won't she be able to pull through?" He roared hysterically.

Maybe she would wake up soon. Or she might not. Then, she would sleep forever…

Maybe? He needed to be sure. Who could assure him? He needed her to be all right. He couldn't bear to lose her.

"Lora Li, you have three kids. You can't just leave them. You can't. I'm warning you!" he said angrily. But Lola did not respond.

Chuck held him by his arm. He didn't want him to do anything crazy.

He exchanged worried looks with Joseph and Jordan. They came into the ICU to lead him out of the room.

"Calm down, Harry. Let's just wait. Everything would be fine," Joseph soothed him. They made him sit on the bench, and held him there with their hands.

Harry closed his eyes in an attempt to calm himself down, but failed.

"Harry, she wouldn't leave the kids. You should trust her." Joseph said as confidently as he could manage, though he himself was uncertain.

Wait? He couldn't wait anymore! His woman was dying. How could he sit there and just wait?

He stood up on his knees, trying to get rid of the restraining grip of the brothers. But they held him tight between them.

"Keep away from me! I'm going to wake her up!" he hissed. His grief made others' hearts ache.

Yolanda was sent to the hospital some time ago. But Chuck refused to see her. She had been transferred to his colleagues.

He had learned about the entire story of how she put Lola in danger.

"Harry! Please calm down! She will be fine!" Jordan finally spoke up. He believed in his sister. She would surely be all right.

Harry was still pinned to the bench and couldn't move.

The brothers didn't remove their hands from him until he had finally calmed down.

Time slowed down as they waited.

The three men wordlessly stood in the hallway. Silence didn't leave them until Mr. Si appeared with a crutch in his hand.

"Grandfather," they said. Mr. Si nodded to them as he walked up to Harry, his grandson.

"Harry, I know how you are feeling," he said. His voice was calm and full of love. He remembered the day when his wife had left him. He had been as sad as Harry was today.

"Lola's not going to die. She will wake up for you and your kids. You must have faith in her, Harry!"

Harry said nothing. He just nodded and anxiously glanced at her through the ICU window.
