The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1306

"Charles, don't worry. You will be okay. I am praying for you." The hall was eerily quiet as Sheryl kept praying in her mind. Her eyes darted to the operating room door, but she remained still on her spot like a soldier who guarded her beloved.

Many hours had passed, and Sheryl had sat in the hall until it was midnight and her body had become numb. After a while, the operating room door finally opened. Sheryl hurriedly staggered to the door and hopefully looked at the doctor.

"The surgery was a success, and the patient would probably wake up tomorrow. He just needs to recover in the hospital for a few days," the surgeon in charge said.

When the doctor's words reached Sheryl's ears, tears of joy flowed out from her eyes. She had gone from immense sadness to joyful relief in a span of few hours.

"Thanks. Thank you so much," Sheryl choked out to the nurse and doctor in front of her. The two of them nodded, and made way for Sheryl to take a look at Charles.

Her eyes carefully scanned Charles' face. It was only at this time that she finally felt that he was beside her. She was extremely happy that her beloved husband was still alive.

Relief washed over her as her legs buckled a bit, and she sat on the floor. Upon making contact with the cold tiles, she burst into tears of joy. She had been fearful for quite some time, but everything was now replaced by happiness because her love had survived.

Soon enough, Charles was wheeled into a recovery room. Sheryl stayed by his bedside all night long and gently gazed at his sleeping face. She didn't dare fall asleep.

It had been a long time since she had watched him like this.

After Melissa fell down from the stairs, Charles didn't say anything but he clearly stayed away from Sheryl. She had wanted to explain to him many times that she didn't push Melissa down, but whenever she did, he didn't believe her for some reason.

While she thought about it, she was even afraid that Charles would still be indifferent to her even after he woke up. Her heart broke into pieces whenever he looked at her that way.

Just a few days later, it was confirmed that the driver who was behind the hit-and-run accident was arrested and put in jail. Nobody ever found out that a sum of money had been secretly sent to the driver's family.

Meanwhile, Black didn't expect Charles to get so lucky that he didn't die in such extreme situation.

However, he still felt glad that Charles was gravely injured. Moreover, if he could spread the news that Shining Company's president was wounded in a car accident and was in serious danger, the company would be forced into a crisis. He didn't think that Charles would be able to save that kind of critical situation.

A ruthless smirk crossed Black's face. He would never leave the situation at that for Charles had dared to steal the woman he loved the most.

At Ward 301

After Holley heard that Charles had gotten injured in a car accident, she had been visiting him every day since.

"Holley Ye, what the hell do you want? I don't need you to look after me. Please leave."

Charles couldn't remember how many times he had blatantly refused Holley, but it was as if she never heard it every time.

"I made the chicken soup today specially for you. Anyway, I'm just being polite. Just have a taste, okay?" Holley said with pleading eyes. She picked up the spoon and tried to feed him the soup.

But Charles turned his head aside. If his hand wasn't injured, he would've slapped his palm in exasperation as well.

Still, Holley was persistent. She moved the spoon further and put it into his mouth with a stubborn look.
