Chapter 193

Loraine jogged towards Irene and Edric's side and saw that a paper cup had fallen on the ground. Water was splashed everywhere. She acted surprised and asked, "What happened?" "Mrs. Myers is in poor health, and Mr. Myers is in a bad mood," John explained.

Loraine was a professional in reading situations. Since John was trying to dissuade Edric, she knew in an instant what just happened. Irene must have tried to pass a cup of water to Edric, but he did not appreciate it and had knocked over the cup. She was secretly pleased.

Irene's face was flustered. She had noticed that Edric's lips were dry and cracked, so she poured him a cup of water. Who would have thought that Edric wouldn't have appreciated it and instead knocked it over with a wave? He even spat out that she was pretending to be kind.

Edric had always treated Irene well. Even when he divorced her years ago, he had never snapped at her like that. Irene felt somewhat aggrieved. If she had not been worried about Margaret, she would have left a long time ago.

She did not stay at the sides to wait for the results anymore. Her pregnant body was sore after standing for such a long time. So, she massaged her waist while Edric glued his eyes on the operating room. His expression was gloomy, and she had no idea what was on his mind.

John noticed Irene's actions and knew that it was because she had stood for a long time. Hence, he spoke to Irene kindly, "Miss Nelson, you're still pregnant. You must be tired from standing after such a long time. It's better to go home and rest. I'll inform you once there's any news."

Edric looked at Irene after hearing John's words. His face remained indifferent and cold as he snapped, "Why are you still here? Are you waiting to see how miserable my mother would be?"

Irene did not speak. She knew that Edric was sorrowful, so she did not bother about him.

Loraine was excited upon hearing this and she added, "Miss Nelson, you'd better go back. It's useless to stay here, and it's annoying for Mr. Myers."

Irene glared at Loraine. That woman was the cause of it all. If it weren't for what she had said, Edric would not treat her like this. Why did this woman say all those words? What was she plotting?

She really wanted to question Loraine, but when she thought of Margaret's ongoing operation, she held her temper. At that moment, her phone rang.

Irene had not gone home since she came out. Thomas called to ask about her as he was worried. So, Irene explained to him about Margaret's injuries in a soft voice. She also told him that she was still in the hospital and would go home later that day. Finally, the door of the operating room opened, and the nurse was pushing Margaret out.

"How did it go?" The few people who were waiting outside suddenly gathered around.

The doctor appeared from behind and answered, "The patient has suffered a severe intracranial hemorrhage and is in a deep coma. She may never wake up again. You all have to be mentally prepared." Edric's face darkened significantly, "Is there no other way?"

"The best-case scenario might be this, while the worst.." The doctor did not finish his sentence. He indirectly meant that the worstcase scenario would be that Margaret was never wake up again. Edric's body trembled for a moment. Irene reached out to hold him, but he pushed her away, "What kind of good person are you pretending to be?"

Loraine did not witness the scene of Edric knocking over the cup with her own eyes, but she saw this scene clearly. Edric's face was filled with anger, and he glared at Irene coldly with hatred.

John reached out his hand to hold Edric, "Calm down, Mr. Myers. We don't know what happened. Do you know how heart-wrenching your actions are?"

Loraine scolded John in her heart, "D*mn it, John. What are you doing at this time?" However, she did not dare to add more fuel to the fire. Both Edric and John were not fools. She needed to describe what she had witnessed objectively so that Edric would blame it on Irene.
