Chapter 2198
June was one of those among the audience watching Samuel's game. The accident had apparently happened in a flash, prompting the doctor on duty to instantly carry Samuel off the playing field. June had not met or spoken to Samuel after they had all turned up.
"It seems like all we could do is wait," Nicole bit her lips.
By the looks of it, Samuel seemed to have sustained a serious injury, or else they would have treated it on the spot, instead of sending him to the hospital.
"I wonder how long it would take. I just want to know how... how badly injured he is." June stammered, looking as though she would rush into the emergency room to check on him in a heartbeat.
Lulu held June back and gently comforted her. "Calm down. Maybe he'll be out in a second."
"Let's go over and sit down," Nicole took them to the row of seats.
If Samuel's injury was indeed serious, she feared there would be a long wait. Still, all they could do was wait patiently.
"Yes, let's go over there and take a seat. Later on, when Samuel comes out, he'll need someone strong enough to take care of him," Lulu advised.
With that, June compromised and sat down, though her eyes were still fixed on the emergency room's door.
Time passed by, and just as everyone was growing sick of waiting, the emergency door opened, and a doctor walked out.
June was the first to react to his appearance. With large, heavy steps, she walked up to the doctor.
"Doctor, how is the patient?" she anxiously asked.
"He sprained his ankle, and there's a fracture in the lower leg. He needs at least three months of rest. As for the recovery, it will depend on the progress of his rehabilitation."
And after advising them on a few precautions they should implement, the doctor left.
Soon, Samuel came out in a wheelchair, and upon noticing that Nicole and Lulu were present too, Samuel was taken aback. "Woah, you're here too!"
Samuel knew June would be here, as she was at the scene and must have been the first to know the news.
