Chapter 894

In the hospital room, someone quietly came in to report.

Eason’s gaze shifted, and he smiled. “Edel has been detained. I’ll go interrogate him to see if we can extract any information from him.”

“Then you should go quickly,” said Judith, her eyes showing signs of fatigue. “If you can find out something, it might increase the chances of your father waking up.”

“I understand.” Eason reassured her with a hug, then turned to Thomas with a smile. “Dr. Thomas, try not to be so restless. My people just called. They will bring Miss Austin here shortly.”

“You said ‘shortly‘ five minutes ago, Thomas replied, visibly anxious.

Eason hesitated. “Well, five minutes… isn’t really that long?”

“Not long?” Thomas exclaimed, exasperated.

Eason was speechless.

Susan, noticing the situation, couldn’t help but smile softly. “Eason, you better go deal with Edel. I’ll be here with Thomas.”

Nodding. Eason swiftly made his exit, almost as if fleeing

Thomas watched Eason’s retreating figure and sighed deeply.

He glanced at his watch and muttered under his breath. “Okay, now it’s been six minutes.”

Ben, watching this, couldn’t help but frown. “It’s just six minutes. Can’t you be a little more composed?”

Thomas snapped. “If it were Susan you were waiting for, I’d like to see how composed you’d be.“”

Ben let out a scoff, confidently replying. “Of course, I wouldn’t be.”

Thomas was left speechless.

So, Ben was actually taking pride in such things.

Thomas couldn’t help but wonder if he had mistakenly befriended the wrong person.

Susan couldn’t help but smile at the scene, offering Thomas a gentle reassurance. “Don’t worry, you came here to help me. When Theresa arrives, I’ll explain everything to her.”

Thomas’s eyes lit up immediately, and he rushed over to grasp Susan’s hand.

“Words are fine, but keep your hands to yourself.” Ben warned, catching Thomas’s hand with a hint of vigilance.

Thomas didn’t argue with him. He just looked earnestly at Susan. “Susan, my life is in your hands now! You
