Submit to the Boss He Rules the Boardroom and the Bedroom novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457 Have you ever protected her?

All the clues were slowly fitted into each other then. Paul felt the blood in his body boil. Suddenly, he remembered something, and his eyes were sunken.

Lucia took a deep breath and calmed herself. She rubbed her hands together, feeling a little uneasy as she suppressed her fury

After listening to Timothy talk about this matter in the ward earlier, she already had a vague answer in her heart. But now, after speaking with Paul, it became clear to her.

Apart from Jeanne, she couldn't think of another person who hated her and her children so much. Not to mention that Jeanne knew about Timothy and Janet's true identity.

Seemingly, seeing that Lucia's mood dropped, Paul raised his hand and placed his broad palm on her shoulder before he spoke in a deep voice, "Lucia, leave this matter to me."

Lucia took a deep breath. All the hatred towards Jeanne, sorrow, and sense of indebtedness to Paula all got mixed up in her heart.

Things from the past flooded in like a tide in her mind. All the things that Jeanne did for her, Timothy, and Janet came rushing on her as if something blew up in her.

She clenched her teeth unconsciously as she tasted rustiness in her mouth, coming from the blood that dripped from her bitted lips

Finally, hot tears fell from her eyes, and she said in a hoarse voice. "Paul, I can't take it anymore

She couldn't bear the fact that Jeanne attacked her and the people she cared for over and over again She couldn't bear the fact that she was indirectly implicating the people around her

Paul's heart tightened suddenly Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms His heart felt sour as he raised his hand and patted her on the back. Finally, he comforted her with words "Don't worry, leave this matter to me"

Even if there was a monstrous anger building in his heart. This time, he needed to man up and take the responsibility of giving justice. He wouldn't forget this matter that easily

After Lucia calmed down, Paul came out of the ward and his face instantly turned cold He turned and instructed his men

"Let Gin start investigating from Jeanne Contact the police and cooperate with the investigation."

This time, he would find out the real culprit, and no matter what, he would never forgive!

Time flew fast, two days had already passed

In the past two days, Lucia sent Timothy and Janet back to the West Bridge They also sent bodyguards with them and asked Lucia's parents to take care of the children while she stayed by Paula's side the entire day

Paula was still lying on the bed in the intensive care unit, looking pale with an oxygen mask. She hadn't woken up for 48 hours

Lucia finally couldn't sit still anymore. She showed up at the door of the attending doctor's office numerously, waiting for a result

This wasn't a good sign. Even if the injury was serious, Paula should be getting better since it had been two days already

"Doctor, my friend she

Several times she had asked the doctor this same question The doctor was already having a headache because of her.

"Miss Mitchell, I answered your question two hours ago. The patient's vital signs are normal. I have sent someone to give her a comprehensive examination The results will be available soon."

Lucia gasped and nodded, but her heart was still anxious "When will I see the result?"

The doctor raised his hand and glanced at his watch. He paused, sighed softly, and said, "Come with me."

Walking to the laboratory, the doctor asked the other doctor there to take out Paula's results in advance. Afterward, they went back to his office

He took out a CT scan of Paula and looked at it. He remained serious as he looked at it then he put the film on the light board. He pointed to a certain place on the film for Lucia to see "See this part? It is the cause of the car accident. It's bleeding Because her head was traumatized in the accident, her brain cells were damaged. The patient will be in a coma for a while But if it's not serious, the patient will wake up soon'

Lucias heart skipped a beat She gasped and asked, "If it's serious what will happen?"

The doctor paused After contemplating for a while, he replied, "The brain cells are extensively damaged If it gets severe the patient will be in a vegetative state"

The doctor's words were like a thunderbolt that electrocuted her. She felt inexplicably uneasy After a while, she asked, 'Then my friend

The doctor replied objectively, "We can't be sure when she will wake up For now, we can only wait"

After coming out of the doctor's office, the only words that remained in her mind were. Just wait

Unconsciously, she walked towards the intensive care unit Through the transparent glass, she looked at Paula who was lying on the bed. She couldn't help but feel depressed

Before, she always felt that Paula was too noisy and annoying with her chattering But now, she just wanted to see her stand up and keep hearing her voice as she spoke non-stop

Her eyes were sore, and her tears kept falling onto her cheeks

Not long after, she was about to leave when she heard hurrying footsteps behind her

When she turned her head and saw the tall man's face She was slightly startled "Burton

She suddenly remembered that Burton and Paula got back together the last time they saw each other Now that Paula had an accident, it's only proper for Burton to appear But it was already the third day!

In an instant, she frowned. She was about to scold him but when she raised her eyes, she saw Burton's eyes that were full of anxiety and eagerness.

"She and her..." He couldn't even form a proper single word

Burton had always been calm But now, he was panicking

Lucia held back her anger and asked, "Did you know she was in a car accident?"
