Chapter 219 Just Wanted To Exclude Other Possibilities

Dinner time had arrived, and Sofia came to inform both of them to have dinner. However, even when Yuliana tried to ask Winnie to have dinner together, Winnie only urged Yuliana to have dinner without her. She still insisted on only having her meal when Zachary returned, as they had been having all meals together all these years.

Since they did not have lunch together today, they should have dinner together.

However, if Winnie did not want to eat, how would Yuliana be able to have her meal with peace of mind? Just then, Christopher and Layla came back. Staring at them momentarily, Winnie could tell that something had happened even though they had yet to spit out any words.

She forced herself to stand strong and questioned with a trembling voice, “Where is your father?”

Feeling anxious, Layla pursed her lips as she sat down beside Winnie. She silently looked at Christopher for about two seconds before she said, “Mom, no matter what you hear next, I really hope you can keep your calm, okay?”

Winnie looked back and forth between Layla and Christopher, then uttered in a serious tone, “Just say it. I can take it.”

The silence continued for a while before Layla brought herself to break it. “Dad is currently admitted to the hospital. When he was fishing earlier, he fell and drowned in the water. He’s still in a coma as of now. The doctor said…”

Fear took over Winnie’s face as she heard what Layla had said. “What did the doctor say?”

Layla then continued her unfinished sentence, saying, “The doctor said there’s a very slim chance for Dad to wake up.”

Winnie staggered when she learned the tragic news and almost fainted. Christopher immediately stepped forward and held her. Stroking her back gently to soothe her, he asked, “Didn’t you say you could take it? Are you going to fall apart just because of this?”

Winnie recovered a little after being soothed for a short while. She quickly stood up and said in denial, “I don’t believe it. Your father only went fishing. How did he end up drowning and staying in a coma now? It’s not that he is not good in the water; he knows how to swim.”
