Chapter 183 My Wife (2)
“Okay.” Alice nodded quickly.
The two of them then rushed to Zayn’s research institute.
Yesterday night, Jane called Alice to inform her that Pierce’s heart rate was abnormal. After ending the call with Alice, Jane took Pierce to Zayn’s research institute.
“Mr. Knight? Are you actually here in person?” Zayn was genuinely surprised when he saw Ethan. “Who managed to convince you to come?”
“He’s my brother–in–law,” Ethan replied naturally, his expression and tone casual. After that, he introduced Alice to Zayn as she stood beside him. “She’s my wife.”
When Alice heard his introduction, she was stunned. Aren’t we keeping our marriage a secret? Well, perhaps it’s because we are in Cliaria and not many people know us.
Zayn’s face showed a hint of surprise, but he quickly regained his composure and greeted Alice politely, “You’re Mrs. Knight, eh? Nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you too.” She smiled politely. “Dr. Wynn, I want to know my brother’s current condition.” She was too worried about Pierce’s condition, so she didn’t bother much with pleasantries.
“Considering how he’s been in a coma for seven years, Mr. Woland’s condition is not looking good.” Zayn’s expression became serious when discussing the matter.
Her heart sank at his words. Does this mean there’s no hope that Pierce will wake up?
Seeing her expression, Ethan immediately frowned and retorted, “Don’t make it sound so mysterious. My wife is timid and easily scared.”
“No, but his condition is indeed quite serious.” Zayn wanted to protest, but after meeting Ethan’s gaze, he changed his words. “As a doctor, I don’t have a hundred percent certainty…”
Alice’s eyes instantly lit up. “In other words, is there hope that my brother will wake up?”
Hearing that, he coughed slightly. “I don’t—” When he felt Ethan shoot a cold glance at him, Zayn quickly changed his statement. “Of course, there is hope. I will do my best to help him wake up.”
“That’s wonderful!” She was on the verge of happy tears, for she had waited for seven years and consulted numerous doctors, but none of them could help. Now, she finally saw a glimmer of hope.
“I’ve never seen someone like you.” Zayn rolled his eyes at Ethan.
However, Ethan didn’t pay any attention to him at all. As long as his wife was happy, nothing else mattered.
Zayn was somewhat stunned. Is he really the Ethan I know? I can’t even bear to look at him like that. As such, he decided to ignore Ethan and turn to Alice instead. “Mrs. Knight, let me explain Mr. Woland’s treatment plan to you.”
“Yes, please.” She nodded repeatedly.
“Okay.” She became visibly relaxed, and a smile finally appeared on her face. Pierce has a better chance of waking up now. Finally! This is truly wonderful news.
