The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1030

Indeed, Amanda was hospitalized.

The court had ordered the transfer of the suspect back to the detention center, and just one day after Amanda's return, her condition worsened.

Everett had been at the hospital for two days.

He hadn't told Dorothy because he was still undecided.

It was such a difficult decision to make...

The hospital felt especially cold in the dead of night.

Everett sat on a bench, his lips pressed tightly together, silent.

Suddenly, footsteps echoed from the other end of the hospital corridor.

He looked up to see Jonathan, who was supposed to have gone to rest, returning.

"Dad, I'll stay here tonight. You go get some sleep."

Jonathan's face was pale, as if he had been scared by something, and he shook his head, "No, I'll just sit here."

"What's wrong?" Everett offered his father a hand.

"I just closed my eyes and...I dreamed that your mother was gone! It scared me awake, and I dared not sleep again. I thought it best to come back." Jonathan glanced at the emergency room door, "Here, I can be closer to her."

Everett lowered his eyelashes, listening to his father sigh beside him.

"Back when I was younger, I always had to attend social gatherings with drinking, and your mom would do everything to stop me, worried it would harm my health, saying drinking was bad for me. And now...it's her lying in there."

"......"

"These days, I've been thinking a lot! All that fame and fortune I chased my whole life, playing games in the business world, the socializing and drinking, in the end, those things...they don't amount to anything! Like now, if I could spend a fortune to cure your mother, to have her healthy again, I'd give up all my savings!"

But it wasn't possible.

How many doctors had he consulted!

And yet, they kept ending up back in this godforsaken hospital.

"Everett, please forgive your mom! She certainly doesn't deserve Dorothy's forgiveness, but she hasn't wronged you!"

The doctor's expression was grave, then he lowered his head, "I'm sorry, we did everything we could."

"......"

"What do you mean?" Jonathan, still not giving up, grabbed the doctor's coat, "What do you mean?!"

"The patient has no heartbeat or breathing, resuscitation was ineffective, she has passed away."

Everett felt as if all the strength had been drained from his body, his limbs stiffened, and his blood froze.

The next second, Jonathan had collapsed heavily to the ground!

"Dad!"

"It's impossible, it can't be! You must have made a mistake! She always comes out of the emergency room, she always does!"

Everett held his father, his handsome face tightened, but his eyes couldn't help but redden.

"Everett...your mom, she can't...how could she die!"
