Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 599

Chapter 549

Rebecca and Anna waited outside the operating rooms until it got dark.

The three injured men were finally wheeled out one after another. The first Sant, the bodyguard who had been shot. His shoulder was bandaged, but he was already conscious.

Aside from being a little pale, he looked in good spirits. He told Gabriel he was fine and was taken to his room. Next was the bodyguard who had been hit by the car.

His leg was in a cast, and his condition seemed fine. Rebecca stared at his casted leg, and a distant memory surged back like a crashing wave.

She grabbed Gabriel’s clothes tightly. “Will he end up lame?”

Bodyguards were human, not machines. He had simply taken a dangerous job. If he ended up disabled because of this, she’d carry the guilt for the rest of her life.

She was terrified because she had gone through something similar and knew the pain. Gabriel patted her hand, went to ask the doctor for details, and came back.

“The doctor said in theory he won’t. Don’t worry,” he reassured her.

Rebecca nodded, but her anxiety grew again. She hadn’t expected Vance to be the most seriously injured.

“Anna?” She endured the pain and gently hugged Anna, who stood there in a daze. Guilt whipped at her conscience, mixing with a strange, aching tightness in her chest.

She held Anna close, pressing her forehead against Anna’s as a soft sob escaped. “Anna, I’m sorry. I will do everything in my power to save him. I’m so sorry.”

Tears welled up in Anna’s eyes. She shook her head numbly, her voice hoarse and broken. “It can’t be cured. It can’t be cured…” “No! It’s not true!” Rebecca cried desperately. “Even though he’s in the ICU, there’s still hope. There has to be hope! Look at me. I used to be lame, but I’m fine now. I can run and jump normally, and I can even dance.”

The emotions she could no longer hold back poured out in Anna’s embrace. Vance’s injuries were far more serious than hers had been back then.

She felt so regretful. Even though she had cursed him before, she never wanted him to die or go through the same pain.
