Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) novel Chapter 219

Chapter 219 Everest Is Not Well

Everest was in critical condition.

The hospital's infant and toddler specialists were doing everything possible to save the baby.

Everyone was waiting outside the emergency room. Even Camila had come in a wheelchair. She held Madelyn's hand, hoping to give her some warmth.

Madelyn had been standing.

She was fragile but didn't want to sit down. She gazed at the heavy iron doors.

Her eyes dared not blink, afraid of missing something.

Her Everest was inside, struggling hard to stay alive...

The doctor said it was already a miracle that she had held on until now.

The doctor said they could consider giving up the baby.

The doctor said the baby was suffering too much!

But every day, Everest was still breathing, still attached to this world. She wanted her mother, and she was not willing to leave...

Madelyn became a mother, and only then did she understand that pain.

Even though the pain was not physical, it felt a hundred times worse than any physical pain.

Benjamin rushed over.

Alexander glanced at his son but didn't blame him anymore. He knew his son was also not feeling well.

Who didn't love Everest?

Brianna and Eloise had been crying all along but suppressed their tears. Brianna whispered to her son, "Ben, let Madelyn sit down. She just gave birth ten days ago!"

Brianna was highly distressed.

As a woman, she knew how weak Madelyn was after giving birth, not to mention all the injuries to Madelyn's body.

Benjamin brought a chair for Madelyn, but she refused to sit down. In the end, he could only let her lean against him. She struggled for a moment and then stopped moving...

After four hours, the doors of the emergency room finally opened.

The doctor came out, slightly tired, and said, "We managed to save her, but the situation is still not optimistic. I just give you a heads-up!"

Everyone understood the implication.

It meant they could save her this time, but there were no guarantees for the next time.

It also meant they could consider giving up the baby!

...

But no one mentioned giving up the baby.

Because Madelyn traded her life for this baby, and no one was willing to give up her.

But, just to prevent any regrets, the Clark family used their connections to arrange a ward next to the incubator room, allowing Madelyn to always see the baby. It's a comfort but also a form of torture.

Madelyn stayed by the baby's side day and night without sleeping or resting.

Benjamin was the father of the child, and he was also allowed to stay in the ward.

For so many days, it was the first time he could be close to Madelyn. But she still ignored him, often sitting there and looking at Everest through the glass.

Watching her sitting for a long time pained Benjamin.

He poured a glass of water for her and placed it next to her. "Madelyn, take a break. The baby needs rest too."

Madelyn was repulsed by him, instinctively pushing him away when he approached.

The scalding hot water spilled all over his arm.

In an instant, it turned red.

It hurt, but Benjamin acted as if he didn't feel it. He gently said, "I'll go treat the wound! You should rest."

Madelyn's gaze fell on his arm.

She didn't say anything and quickly looked away.

Benjamin was stung by her cold gaze. Now, there was no trace of warmth towards him in her eyes. She looked at him as if he were a stranger.

If it weren't for Everest, she wouldn't be in the same room with him.

Benjamin left in a hurry.

He silently tended to his wound and returned to the ward.

He could not bear this kind of indifference. He gently embraced her from behind, and his voice was hoarse, "Madelyn, you can hit me, scold me, but don't treat me like this!"

Madelyn didn't struggle for free.

Because she didn't have the strength...
