Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 264

Cold... It was so cold…

The cold seawater surrounded her.

She seemed to have auditory hallucinations... She heard Heaton calling her...

Had Heaton come back?

In a daze, her sinking body was held up by a pair of powerful arms.

She felt that it was hard to breathe, but in an instant, her lips were kissed by a pair of soft thin lips. The person was helping her to restore her breathing.

'Heaton, is that you?'

...

"Riana... Riana! Wake up! Wake up! You cannot sleep! Riana, wake up!"

Heaton kept doing chest compressions for Verian, but she could not spit out the seawater that was choking her.

Heaton's eyes turned red with anxiety and his voice trembled, "Drive faster!"

Kush floored the car. The black Maybach drove quickly in the dark night.

"Boss, don't worry. We are almost at the hospital!"

"Verian Mont! Wake up!"

Heaton lost count of how many chest compressions he had done. Finally, Verian spat out the seawater that choked her.

"Cough... Cough..."

Slowly opening her eyelids, a familiar handsome face entered her blurry and shaky vision.

"Heaton...!"

With her pale face, she smiled. She must be hallucinating...

Xavier was having an engagement ceremony with Yuna at the moment. How could he appear before her?

However, her body was hugged tightly by someone's embrace.

"Riana, I'm sorry I'm late."

Tears ran down from Verian's eyes. She was unconscious, and her voice was weak. "It's really good... I dream of you again... Heaton... I'm so tired... I want to stop Xavier from getting engaged with Yuna... But, I'm too tired... My stomach hurts... I can't run anymore..."

"Stop talking."

The man's thin lips pressed against her temples, and he whispered softly, "We will reach the hospital soon. It won't hurt anymore. Be good and bear with it. We'll arrive soon."

Verian was too tired. Even if she forced her eyelids open to look at this illusion of Heaton, she could not fight against her fatigue anymore. She closed her eyelids.

The man stared at her face that looked as pale as paper. He called her softly, "Riana. Riana?"

...

Verian was rushed into the emergency room.

Standing outside the emergency room, Heaton slammed his fist against the wall of the hospital.

His fist was bleeding, but he could not feel any pain at all.

Wilson came over and comforted him. "You're not fully responsible for this event. Don't blame yourself too much."

Heaton closed his eyes deeply and said, "Maybe Xavier will appear again in the future. He'll hurt Riana over and over again. I thought about not having a relationship with anyone. I also thought about not getting married. However, when Riana appeared in my life, I became selfish."

Although it was Xavier who hurt Verian, he had to admit that Xavier was part of his body and consciousness. He could not shift the blame.

Pursing his lips, Wilson said, "Before, even if your other personalities appeared, they would only appear for a short time. Normally, after you fainted, everything would return to normal. However, this time, Xavier almost replaced you and became the master of your body. Heaton, you have to be careful. Xavier is getting stronger."

Heaton clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles became pale.

He did not know how long he stayed outside the emergency room. Finally, the attending doctor came out.

For a moment, Heaton did not dare to go forward and ask.

He never thought that he would be such a coward.

"Doctor, how is my wife?"

The doctor pushed the glasses onto the bridge of his nose and sighed, "Mrs. Fudd's progesterone is already low. Now, it is coupled with bleeding and being irritated. Although the baby is saved with our efforts, it's very easy for her to have a miscarriage if she becomes depressed or provoked again. She needs to be well taken care of, and there mustn't be any accidents anymore."

Heaton breathed a sigh of relief. The air that was trapped in his chest could finally be gradually relieved.

His heart that was hanging in the air could finally settle.

Verian was transferred to the VIP ward. Heaton stood outside the door for a long time, hesitating to step in.

Wilson asked, "Don't you want to go in to see her?"

"I want to ask you a favor."

"What is it?"

"Ask Serene to come and take care of Riana for a while."

Wilson frowned. "What about you?"

"I'll go back to the medical base with you for treatment. Before the treatment is complete, I..."

Wilson interrupted him. "What if you cannot be cured for a long time? Are you planning to avoid her the whole time?"

Heaton's eyes became deep as he said solemnly, "Although it's Xavier who hurt Riana, Xavier is one of my personalities. I can't push the blame to someone else. It's unknown when he will come out again. It's best for you to tie me up in the medical base."

...

Before leaving, Heaton entered the ward and sat next to Verian.

His big slender hand held her small hand. He gently kissed her ring finger that had the wedding ring.

Verian, who was sleeping, looked a little uneasy. She frowned. When Heaton got up to leave, she suddenly grabbed his hand. "Heaton, don't go..."

Heaton lowered his black eyes and looked at the helpless little hand. At last, he cruelly pulled her hand away.
