Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford (by Koi Fish) novel Chapter 602

Chapter 602

The ICU had glass walls. When they arrived, Anna had just finished her visit and was stepping out.
Anna looked surprised to see them, then a flicker of panic crossed her face. She walked over and asked, "What brings you guys here?"
Her eyes darted toward the doctor's office.
Rebecca explained, "I came to visit my bodyguards and thought I'd ask the doctor about Vance's condition. Also..."
She was also worried about the medical bills. ICU care was expensive.
When they divorced, Vance had given her almost all his money. Later, he had donated most of his father’s inheritance, and his shop had been forced to close.

She had no idea how much he had left or whether he had proper insurance here! The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.

She decided to at least take care of the medical bills.

Anna’s expression shifted slightly. “Did you find the doctor yet?”

Rebecca shook her head. “I just got here. I haven’t spoken to anyone yet.”

Anna then led Rebecca and Josette over to see Vance-through the glass only. He lay motionless, deeply unconscious and looking lifeless.

“He was badly hurt, so he needs to stay in the ICU for now,” Anna said. “But the doctor said his condition is stable today. If nothing goes wrong, he should be able to move to a regular room in a few days.”

Rebecca stared at the man behind the glass and felt the world tilt/He didn’t look nearly as stable as Anna claimed. His injuries seemed far worse than hers had ever been.

“Anna,” Rebecca took a shaky breath, “is that really true?”

“Okay,” Rebecca agreed, having the same feeling.

She asked Josette to wait outside, worried the news might be too harsh, but Josette insisted, “You kids don’t always have to hide things from me. Keeping me in the dark worries me more.”

Rebecca compromised, and they both entered the office. The doctor’s explanation was roughly the same as Anna’s. Rebecca didn’t notice that while she asked questions, the doctor kept glancing in the doorway, where Anna was standing.

Relieved, Rebecca said goodbye to Anna at the door, then quietly found a nurse and paid Vance’s hospital bills.
