Chapter 126 Comatose

“Amelia, are you or are you not going to see Carter? I’ll be frank with you. The doctor has already given his final prognosis. If he doesn’t wake up in three days, the chances of him ever waking up is only one in ten thousand. If you still see him as a friend, follow me to the hospital,” Jennifer insisted.

Slightly frenzied, Amelia shot to her feet. “It’s that serious?”

“You can believe whatever you want, Amelia. That’s all I have to say.”

Amelia could detect the anger simmering in the other lady who was obviously here to beg her, but seemed more like she was threatening her instead.

Although Amelia had already decided to visit Carter, she still wanted to kick Jennifer’s arrogance down a few notches.

I knew it. Jennifer’s relatively pleasant behavior just now was too good to be true.

“Ms. Larson, if you beg me, perhaps I’ll consider it.” Amelia gave her some attitude as well.

Jennifer was momentarily dumbfounded, exclaiming in disbelief, “What did you say?”

Amelia pointed to the ground and elaborated, “Ms. Larson. If you kneel and beg me, I’ll follow you to the hospital immediately. Otherwise, I’m sorry, but I’d rather go home and cook for my husband.”

Jennifer took off her shades and glared vehemently at Amelia, her eyes seemingly calling the latter crazy.

Amelia shrugged her shoulders and smiled nonchalantly. “What? You don’t want to, Ms. Larson?”

Without waiting for a response, she pushed back her chair. “In that case, I’m sorry. I have a lot of work to do, so I’ll get going first.”

She spun on her heels and walked away, but she soon unexpectedly heard a soft thud behind her.

Amelia turned around and was utterly shocked to see that Jennifer had actually dropped to her knees. Even the waiters in the café were stunned.

Amelia hurried over, wanting to reach out to help Jennifer up, but the latter stared at her with a resolute gaze and gritted out, “Now can you go to the hospital with me, Amelia?”

Amelia flicked her eyes toward the waiters, who were rushing over, and said in exasperation, “Get up first. This is a public area. Everyone’s watching.”

“Follow me to the hospital, then I’ll get up.”

“Yes, yes. I’ll follow you! I was only joking. I didn’t expect that you’d take it so
