Chapter 329 Jarrod's Critical Condition

Alec, standing outside, felt shocked by what the nurse said. Jarrod hadn't taken great care of himself, yet he was generally healthy, aside from the previous infection of pneumonia.

Alec never imagined Nicole's few words could endanger Jarrod's life.

In a daze, Alec asked the nurse, "I'm his assistant. Is it possible for me to sign the form for him?"

The nurse seriously answered, "This is a matter of life and death, so you'd better inform his family to sign it."

"But Mr. Schultz doesn't have any relatives."

The nurse asked in confusion, "Isn't he married?"

Alec simply shook his head.

"What about his parents?" the nurse further asked.

"They've been gone for a long time." Alec answered.

The nurse, looking concerned, was surprised Jarrod had no relatives. After all, Jarrod was quite handsome and didn't seem like he'd have any trouble finding a wife for himself. Why hadn't he found someone to marry?

The nurse passed the form to Alec, saying, "The patient is quite fragile right now. You sign it and see if there are any of his close friends or remote relatives who could come over. It'd be good to reach out to them as soon as you can."

After all, heart failure was an unexpected sickness, and nobody could foresee what might happen. The nurse simply wanted to give Alec a friendly reminder.

Following that, the medical staff shut the operating room door.

Clutching the form, Alec felt overwhelmed and uncertain about what to do. Remembering the nurse's suggestion, he pulled out his phone and called a number.
