Forbidden Passion

Chapter 344 It Was My Fault

Phoebe reached out and took a sip, but she drank too quickly, causing water to go down the wrong pipe. She started coughing violently. Just as Lawton was about to reach out to pat her back, John moved faster, stood next to Phoebe, and gently patted her back. "Phoebe, drink slower," John said.

Her throat burned with pain, and as Phoebe coughed, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, startling both John and Lawton.

Lawton quickly called for a nurse. Seeing Phoebe's poor complexion, the nurse felt it was serious and had other nurses bring a medical bed.

A few people helped Phoebe lie down on the bed. The nurse said, "We need to do a full-body examination. Pay the fee first."

John refused to leave and told Lawton to go pay.

With the situation pressing, Lawton dashed off to settle the payment without hesitation.

Meanwhile, John followed the medical bed, his eyes red with worry. "Phoebe, it's okay. Don't be afraid."

Phoebe lay on the bed, the incandescent light on the ceiling flashing past her eyes, making her dizzy. She closed her eyes.

Because she had vomited blood, her mouth was full of a metallic taste, making her very uncomfortable. She told John, "Don't worry. I'm fine. When the car rolled, he... he protected me."

Compared to Theodore, her injuries were relatively minor. Vomiting blood was probably due to anxiety or internal injuries from the car rolling.

'But if I was like this, Theodore must be in worse condition.'

Thinking of this, she became even more worried.

Phoebe had little strength left but still tried to comfort John. John felt very distressed. "Don't talk. Save your strength."

Phoebe didn't have the energy to say more. Listening to the sound of the medical bed's wheels against the floor, she slowly fell into darkness.

John called out, "Phoebe!"
