Crossroads

Chapter 342

Not everything in this world goes as one wishes.

Even if Stephanie prayed with all her might, there was no room for negotiation with Death on the hospital operating table.

Stephanie curled up in a chair, staring blankly at the red “Surgery in Progress” sign. Diana, sitting next to her, had her eyes red from crying, and Samantha was trembling, praying continuously

Several key executives of the Reed Group also rushed over. Courtney sat in a dark corner on the left, and everyone waited in silence without exchanging words.

“Why did his condition suddenly worsen?” Samantha murmured softly.

Diana comforted her back, not knowing how to explain at the moment, only hoping for everything to be okay.

At that moment, the door of the operating room was suddenly pushed open urgently.

A bald, slightly overweight male doctor in a white gown came out, holding a medical record in his hand. Two female nurses followed him, their white gloves stained with blood. They all looked very urgent.

“Doctor, how is my son? Samantha, sitting in the front, immediately stood up.

Stephanie also hurriedly ran towards the doctor, who looked at Stephanie and spoke in a low voice. “His condition is very grim.”

His words raised the hearts of everyone present

Samantha seemed to lose all strength suddenly, her body going limp as she knelt down. Diana quickly supported her. Her own anxiety was also burning fiercely, and the doctor’s words hit her hard, tears streaming down non–stop.

“Please sign here!

The doctor’s expression was serious as he handed the critical condition notice to Stephanie.

Stephanie gripped the pen, her fingers trembling, and quickly signed her name.

“Please do your best to save my dad,” she said hoarsely in a low voice.

“We will definitely do our best, but you need to be prepared. His cerebral blood vessels ruptured, causing massive bleeding. The disability rate
