The Return of His Unrivaled Ex-Wife by Zara Gibbon

Chapter 598

The doctor frowned and his tone became even more grave. “Even if Mr. Everett wakes up, I’m afraid…”

“Afraid of what?” Joanna looked at the doctor with bloodshot eyes.

“It’s hard to say for the time being. He might remain in a vegetative state or never wake up. Miss Haynes, you have to prepare yourself mentally.

“In short, we can only try and hope for the best. It would be a miracle if he regains consciousness. If not, we can only accept reality.”

Although the doctor spoke tactfully, the meaning behind his words were clear.

Bruce was probably already dead.

Similar cases existed in the hospital whereby the patient was actually already dead, but family members were unwilling to give up and insisted on using all kinds of expensive medicine and nutrient solutions to keep the patient alive.

Although injecting nutrient solutions and drugs would ensure these patients’ bodies did not rot, they were akin to the living dead and perhaps even worse off than those in a vegetative state.

When Joanna heard this, her legs went weak and she almost lost her balance. The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited in her heart was instantly extinguished and replaced by hopelessness.

She didn’t dare to imagine what the future had in store for Bruce.

She couldn’t bear to see such proud and arrogant person like Bruce in a vegetative state.

However, she had no choice but to settle for this next best option. Bruce remaining alive was the most important thing to Joanna. Even if he remained in a vegetative state, she would be willing to take care of him for the rest of her life.

“Miss Haynes, don’t get your hopes up. Prepare for the worst,” the doctor added.

Joanna’s heart shattered into pieces. She nodded and choked with grief and said. “Doctor, please do everything you can to save him. You have to keep him alive no matter what.”

She no longer had hope that he would wake up.

She only hoped that he could still live.

“Don’t worry. We will do our best to save Mr. Everett.

“Now, if you’ll excuse us. We have to attend a meeting and discuss on how best to treat Mr. Everett moving forward.

“Alright…”
