In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 77

“I am busy. I can’t go home now.”

Then, I hang up and power off the phone.

It is the first time I have been so bold as to hang up on Frances Louis. I don't know what will happen when I go back, but at this moment, I just want to wait for the results of the hospital.

I can't be relieved until I know Noah Jefferson is fine.

The operating room lights are on all the time.

As time goes on, my heart becomes more and more disturbed.

Finally, the operating room lights are off and the door opens from inside.

I go up to the doctor and ask anxiously, “How's he?”

“The extravasation in the skull has been cleared away, and the comminuted fracture in the shoulder is too serious. Even if it is recovered later, it can’t bear too much weight. His situation is stable now, so don't worry.”

Noah Jefferson is pushed out. The anesthetics makes him still asleep. But even in the dream, he is still smiling.

Looking at comatose Noah Jefferson, I stand by his bed and all mixed feelings rush into my heart.

Soon afterwards, Noah Jefferson’s father and mother come to the hospital.

They live in another city. It seems that they have just got off the plane.

“Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson.”

I try to say hi to them politely.

Noah Jefferson's mother looks at me for a while, then she frowns and slaps me.

I am stunned by her slap.

“Auntie…”

“Don't call me auntie! Noah Jefferson must have committed big crimes in his previous life to meet you! He got poor grades because of you and can only enter into an inferior school, otherwise Noah Jefferson would have had a better job now. I never thought he would see you again. I heard you got divorced. How could you be so shameless to haunt my son!”

Noah Jefferson’s mother gets angry and holds her purse to hit me.

Although I am wronged, I can’t fight against an elder. I can only use one hand to withstand her as well as try to hide aside.

The hospital is crowded. All people are standing outside the ward and watching us.

“You bitch, leave my son alone! You can’t disturb my son no matter how horny you are! My son has never even had a girlfriend, I can’t let you ruin him!” His mother hits and curses, and the words she curses become more and more embarrassing.

It’s no use for his father stopping her many times, and he can only stand by anxiously.
