Chapter 558
“Why the heck is this happening?”
Cornelia was puzzled. She was planning to call Dr. Lester in for a check, but noticed that her hand was firmly held by Marcus.
She tried to move slightly, but Marcus held her even tighter
“Mr. Marcus, if you’re awake, cut the act, okay? Don’t scare us like this,” Cornelia suspected Marcus was playing possum because she didn’t understand how a comatose person could hold her hand so lightly
She extended her other hand and gently pinched the back of his hand. She used a certain amount of force, if he was pretending, he should have reacted
However, Marcus didn’t respond at all, leaving Cornelia utterly disappointed.
As for why he suddenly opened his eyes, held her hand, and called her name, Cornelia, not being a doctor, couldn’t understand. She needed to get Dr. Lester to check on him
right away.
Cornelia tried again to free her hand, but still to no avail. Even with all her strength, she couldn’t break free from Marcus‘ grip.
He hadn’t woken up, then why was his grip so strong?
With no other options, all Cornelia could do was stay by his side, literally not moving an inch; she couldn’t even go to the restroom.
Luckily, she hadn’t drunk much water today…
Meanwhile, Zack and Abigail were still waiting in the parking lot. With Cornelia yet to return, they couldn’t leave at ease.
They had wanted to go into the hospital, but were blocked by several burly men at the entrance.
Zack angrily said, “This is a hospital, meant to serve patients. Who the hell are you to stop us?”
The men blocked the entrance, completely ignoring his complaints.
Abigail quickly dragged Zack away, “I noticed that we’ve been waiting here for so long and aside from us, not a single person has gone in or out. I guess Marcus‘ condition must be really bad, that’s why they’re so strict about letting outsiders in.”
Zack asked, “What the heck happened to Marcus?”
Abigail shook her head, “I have no idea. I just heard that tall guy say Marcus‘ condition is serious.”
Zack said worriedly. “Could it be that Marcus is pretending to be sick just to keep Cornelia with him?”
