Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2344

Nina frowned. ‘Who’s calling so early in the morning?’

She turned over and tried to get her phone.

Percy grabbed her hand and muttered, "Don't worry about it."

Nina was not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Outsiders would be shocked if they knew that the CEO of Mallory Corporation acted like this when he woke up in the morning.

"I’m getting a call so early. Something must have happened." Nina removed his hands, picked up the phone, and glanced at the incoming call. It was an unfamiliar number.

Some time ago, some random numbers kept calling her, so she had to change her phone number.

Therefore, she was annoyed with random numbers. She would hang up straight and refuse to answer their calls.

She put down the phone. Percy asked, "Who's calling?"

"Some random number. It might be to harass me," Nina said. Her phone number was maliciously exposed when her past was put in the spotlight.

Some reporters would call to interview her. At the same time, many called to scream at her, saying that she was shameless and unworthy of Percy.

She had just changed her number, so Nina wondered who exposed it again...

The phone rang as soon as she put it down.

"Do I need to change my number again?" Nina turned to her side and asked Percy.

"Answer first and see who it is." Percy patted the back of her hand.

Nina gave a hum and turned around to pick up the phone. It was the same number as just now. She answered it and asked, "Who is it?"

"Are you Ms. Nina Langdon?" An unknown female voice came from the other end of the phone.

Nina frowned. Just when she was about to deny it, she heard the other person say, "This is the emergency department of the hospital. Is Jean Langdon your brother?"

Nina lay flat on the bed. She looked at Percy when she heard Jean's name.

She knew that nothing good could happen whenever she heard about Jean from someone else's mouth.

What was worse, it was the hospital calling.

The previous issue involving Jean the last time had not been resolved. Tyrone Hugh had not been discharged from the hospital. ‘What did he do again?’

"Jean was found passed out next to the garbage dump today. He was injured and left to freeze on the street for a night. The hospital is resuscitating him now. Please come to the hospital immediately," the hospital staff member said.

"Okay, I see." Nina hung up the phone and looked at Percy dully.

"What's wrong?" Percy asked softly when he realized that she must have been notified of some bad news.

"Jean is in the hospital," Nina said.

"I'll take you there." Percy did not intend to laze in bed anymore and sat up immediately. He helped Nina to sit up as well.

"The staff at the hospital said that he was found next to a garbage dump. He’s covered in bruises and was freezing all night beside the garbage dump," Nina said dully. Her mind was blank.

She realized that the temperature last night was around minus 10 degrees.

Someone who spent the night outdoors when it was minus 10 degrees would be in life-threatening danger even if they wore a thick coat.

On top of that, Jean was injured.

‘Can they save him?’

If she went crazy, Nina would never have a peaceful life.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine..." Percy was unsure how to comfort her.

Johann called when they were still on the way to the hospital.

Percy knew that Nina was worried about Jean, so he turned on the loudspeaker. "How’s Jean doing now?"

"I just learned that he froze for more than four hours. He was found next to the dump by an old garbage man in the morning. He didn’t respond to the old man no matter how hard he tried to wake him, so he called the police and the ambulance," Johann said.

"Is he..."

"The doctor is still resuscitating him. There are many injuries on his body. It seems that he was beaten up. He’s being observed in the emergency room. He just had a CT scan of the whole body. It’s hard to say whether he has any internal injury. His body temperature has risen a little now. He should be fine if they continue to attend to him. However, he was left to freeze for a bit. I don't know if there will be any after-effects..." Johann said.

Many people who were left to freeze outside overnight could not be rescued. There were many such cases.

Jean was lucky.

In extremely cold weather, ordinary people would get delusions and take off their clothes. Many of them froze to death because of it.

Jean was injured and did not have the strength to take off his coat, so he managed to keep warm throughout the night.

When the ambulance arrived, his breathing and heartbeat were weak.

A series of rescues were immediately carried out as soon as he got onto the ambulance, and his breathing and heartbeat slowly rose.

"Dr. Park, will he be alright?" Nina asked in a trembling voice as her tears fell.

"He’s relatively stable, but you have to be mentally prepared. After all, we don't know the extent of the injuries in his body. Also, people with frostbite may have sequelae," Johann told her.
