The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 1371

I suddenly thought of Tory while I was waiting. Only then did I realize that he was absent this whole time. I asked Solomon worriedly, "Do you know where Tory is, Mr. Cook?"

"It's a little difficult for Tory to be out and about."

Solomon furrowed his brows slightly. “He has just taken over the Zimmerson family. If Jordan finds out that he's working with President Grant, he might have another powerful enemy to deal with, which might be an inconvenience to him."

"That’s true."

Tory's help had been more than enough. It would be too much if I were to ask for anything more.

Two hours later, Theo was still in the emergency room, and I was about to lose my mind from the wait.

At four a m., seeing that the emergency room's doors were still shut, I became anxious and paced back and forth in front of the room.

Solomon was afraid that I might just rush into the emergency room and was watching me with a nervous look on his face. It was only when he saw that I was not planning to do so that he relaxed significantly.

When Tory arrived and saw the anxious looks on our faces, he asked in a deadpan manner, "Are you guys planning to scare him to death with your ghastly expressions when he comes out?"

I had long gotten used to his sharp tongue,

so I just ignored him. Moreover, I was not in the mood to be bothered by him.

Solomon, on the other hand, spoke up instead, "Mr. Zimmerson, President Grant is still in deep waters, so please don't joke about that."

"Alright, I can take over from here. Both of you should take a rest."

Tory pursed his lips. "Don't worry, I won't let him die so easily."

He looked at me and continued speaking, * You've always been an ugly woman, but you'll look worse if you pull an all-nighter. If Theo dies in there, it’ll be difficult for you to remarry with that face of yours."

I pursed my lips, still ignoring him.

Why was he not out yet?

How serious was Theo’s condition?

I was restless and extremely anxious.

Just as I was about to have a breakdown, the emergency room’s doors finally swung open.

The doctor walked out and I rushed over. Perhaps it was due to my emotional state but a sudden wave of dizziness washed over me. I almost fainted.

Tory reacted quickly and grabbed me, holding me up. He then looked at me with a disdainful look on his face as he asked, " Hey Miss, are you planning on committing double suicide?"

I furrowed my brows in anger. Why did he constantly have to curse Theo?

I shoved him aside and rushed over to question the doctor. "How's my husband, doctor?"

The doctor removed his mask and let out a long sigh. "The patient's life is not in danger, but his muscles and nerves have suffered varying degrees of frostbite, which might leave some side effects. The worst case is that some parts of his body might be paralyzed. You and his family should be mentally prepared.”

His words hit me like a bolt of lightning, rendering me speechless. I was in shock.

It was not until the nurse pushed Theo out of the emergency room that I finally reacted.
