Chapter 200 Theodore's Protection

When Joey got to the hospital, Benjamin was already in the ICU.

Seeing Benjamin on a ventilator and hooked up to monitors, Joey walked to his bedside, held his big hand, and let her tears fall.

Sebastian hugged her shoulders to comfort her. "Joey, don't be sad. Dad had a bad scare, and his heart acted up again. He just needs another valve replacement surgery."

Joey, with tearful eyes, looked at Sebastian. "But his condition is special. No expert here dares to do the surgery."

Sebastian, feeling heartbroken, wiped her tears. "Don't cry. Being too sad isn't good for the baby. I'm here, and I won't let your dad leave you. I've already contacted Mr. Elwood abroad. He can do the surgery, but he's in Africa, which is in turmoil. I need to bring him back personally."

Joey looked at him worriedly. "It's dangerous there. I don't want you to take the risk."

"Trust me. Take care of yourself and the baby, and wait for me."

Joey was torn. She didn't want to lose either her dad or Sebastian.

She held his hand tightly, looking at him intensely. "Sebastian, I don't want to trade your life for my dad's. The baby and I are waiting for you."

Sebastian kissed her forehead. "I promise, everything's gonna be fine. I've got someone watching the place 24/7. Unless there's an emergency, don't go out, okay?"

"I know. I'll protect myself and the baby."

"Good. I have to leave now. Dad can't wait too long."
