Two doctors immediately made way for her and turned to look at her. "Come."
Then, Catherine saw Ivan, who was covered in blood and lay on the operation table with his eyes closed. She could hardly see his facial features clearly because of all the blood.
His blood-stained clothes had been torn and there were wires connected to his body.
It was supposed to be terrifying, but Catherine wasn't scared at all. All that she feared was that he might leave her.
Tears streamed down her cheeks and she felt heartbroken.
"Jennie…" with his eyes closed, Ivan mumbled in his coma with a frown.
Catherine walked over and sat down on the stool a doctor had gotten for her. Then, she held Ivan's bloody hand.
His hand was so cold without any warmth…
She kept staring at him with tears and felt the room chilling.
Her heart sank.
She kept his hand in her palms and wanted to make him feel warmer, but it seemed that he could feel nothing.
"Don't cry," the doctor said to her. And then, the doctor bent over to Ivan and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Marsh, Jennie is here and she's holding your hand and crying. You have to stay tough for her."
Ivan had been feeling weaker and weaker, he felt he was about to leave the world, but when he heard the doctor say Jennifer was here, he moved his finger.
Catherine was both happy and sad about this. She was in fear of losing him and every second felt like a long time to her.
The doctors were trying hard to save his life.
In a ward on the same floor in the hospital.
The white curtains were billowing and there was the fragrance of lily in the air.
Jennifer lay on the bed with her eyes closed and in a coma. Her face was a bit pale from the anesthetic.
She frowned in her sleep.
