Chapter 588
“What?” Paul was in disbelief. He couldn’t stop himself from exclaiming.
How did Skylar end up in a vegetative state?
She’d been alive and kicking a day ago. One trip to Liberty County, and she’d entered a vegetative state?
Had these doctors examined her properly? Had they thought of a proper treatment plan for her?
Paul immediately turned to Joe.
As he’d expected, Joe’s expression was frigid. He ordered, “Exhaust every method you can think of. You know that we’ll never accept this as her future.”
Robert Harrison, the head of Jipsburg Hospital, sighed deeply and replied, “We’ve compiled her medical reports and discussed this matter with experts overseas. They’ve all agreed that this is a problem that no one can solve. Mr. Martin, we càn only hope for a miracle now.”
He’d made clear that no one knew how to help Skylar.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to save her. The patient was someone Joe cared about. They’d considered every possibility, but in the end, they found no viable option.
After all the doctors left, Paul immediately asked Joe, “Mr. Martin, should I contact hospitals overseas? Also… should I ask Mrs. Martin’s family to come over? They still don’t know Ms. Sullivan’s condition.”
There was also Gloria.
If they had kept this from Gloria, she might not have been able to bear it when she eventually found them out.
Two days ago, Alexander and Harry had returned from Liberty County. They felt another wave of self–blame when they heard that Jipsburg Hospital had found no way to save her.
They’d pleaded for help from many sources. The two of them also helped keep the news from Gloria.
Joe ordered coldly, “Please leave first.”
Paul froze in surprise. Then, he left the room swiftly.
Joe sat by the bed and looked down at Skylar. The room was completely silent.

Suddenly, he heard the chime of a notification. Joe glanced over. It was Charles calling Skylar.
Skylar’s phone had been quiet for three days. No one called. This was the first incoming call.
Joe’s eyes shifted away from it after a brief look. He allowed the phone to keep ringing. He had no idea what to tell Charles.
Another call came in after the first one ended. It was still Charles.
Joe furrowed his brows.
At that moment, Joe heard a hoarse female voice squeak out beside him, “The phone
”
Surprise took over Joe’s features. He turned around to look at Skylar.
He watched as Skylar opened her eyes. Then, she narrowed her eyes again, perhaps because she couldn’t get used to the room’s brightness.
Skylar felt like her brain was lagging when she saw Joe before her. She said, “You…”
Her throat felt dry and scratchy. It was as though she’d been down with a major disease.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Flash Romance With the Richest Mogul
Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
