Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456

"With a loyal husband and lovely son, I believe that Mrs. Ford will wake up," Kendall said comfortingly.

"Let's hope so."

Mia sighed again at that.

The family had advised Eric to stop staying with a living dead woman. After more than three years of living in widowhood, he proved loyal to his wife.

They were not ruthless, as the wife's family had advised Eric to do so too.

Eric was the head of the Ford Family, so he needed a woman to care for him. Moreover, Scott was still young and needed someone to take care of him too.

However, Eric refused to remarry.

He insisted on waiting for his wife to wake up.

Even if his wife never woke up, he wouldn't remarry, and insisted on bringing up Scott alone.

The family couldn't persuade Eric, and they could only feel sorry for him.

Presently, it was only now that Emma learned about Eric's family affairs.

So this is the case. The little one's mother is in a vegetative state, but Mr. Ford remains loyal to his wife. Even when she is now in this state and everyone advised him to give up, he still perseveres. He's a loyal one, all right.

It was only after a while that Eric returned to the dining room with his son from their visit to his wife.

Kendall and Emma were both guests, and they were not close with the Ford Family, so they didn't talk much during the meal. However, the family was enthusiastic and kept urging them to have more food.

Moreover, Scott thoughtfully spooned Kendall some food too.

Those happened to be Kendall's favorite foods.

The boy urged in an adorable tone, "Miss Kendall, this is your favorite food, and I pick it for you. So, you have to like me more than Mr. Dylan."

As Eric and Scott had had a meal with Kendall and Dylan, Scott remembered Kendall's favorite food as Dylan had picked the same thing for Kendall.

Kendall couldn't help but laugh. "I have always liked you."

"I must win against Mr. Dylan!" Scott emphasized seriously.

"Oh, you're making it difficult for me. You are different from Mr. Dylan, so you don't have to compete with him, you know?"

However, Scott pouted and said, "Every time I visit you, Mr. Dylan looks like he is going to throw me out. So, I have to fight and defeat him."

Upon hearing that, everyone laughed.

"Scott!"

Eric called out to his son helplessly.

If Dylan was there, he would say, "Kid, you couldn't be possibly thinking of defeating me with your puny body. I will let you hit me as much as possible; afterward, I'll throw you out of the window, which eventually makes you the loser."

Then, Scott would argue, "I have Miss Kendall on my side, and she likes me the most."

In the end, Dylan would only grimace. "I won't bother with a little kid."

"Mr. Ford? Mr. Ford!"

The maid in charge of looking after Eric's wife suddenly rushed into the dining room while looking anxious and laced with surprise.

"What's the matter?"

If one suddenly broke in when Eric entertained an honored guest, he would immediately order someone to kick them out.

However, Eric had a soft spot for the one who took care of his wife.

Moreover, he worried that something had happened to his beloved wife too.

"Mr. Ford, M-Madam is…"

Eyes red, the maid was too excited and she was shuttering.

She spoke intermittently, so she startled everyone.

In response, Eric jerked up and roughly pulled back his chair to run off.

Scott stopped eating and slid down his chair too to run after his father.

Everyone followed suit.

In the end, only Kendall and Emma were left in the living room.

They exchanged glances.

"Emma, let's check it out too."

I hope Mrs. Ford is alright.

Kendall prayed for the pitiful wife.

She thought the wife was noble to protect her baby with her life.

Then, they put down their cutlery and got up to leave. At the same time, the overly excited maid finally calmed down.

Soon, the maid slapped her thigh and shouted, "Mr. Ford, I'm not done yet. Mrs. Ford moved her finger, so she might wake up!"

Upon hearing that, Kendall and Emma were speechless.

You're too excited that you only recovered after everyone ran away.

On the other end, Eric ran to his beloved wife at the highest speed as he thought she would leave him. As soon as he entered, he yelled, "Quick, call an ambulance! Contact Mr. Watson immediately and let him arrange for an emergency team. We must save my wife at all costs!"

"Mr. Ford, she is…"

When the nurse came over and tried to say something, Eric ran past her like a gust of wind, not bothering to listen to what she had to say.

The nurse was speechless upon seeing that.

Can't you hear what I have to say?

Eric ran to his wife's bed and wanted to pick her up, but he met with a pair of black eyes, and the other's eyes were blank.

Eric froze when he saw that.

The couple stared at each other.

The next moment, Eric was ecstatic.

"Maggie, you're awake!"

Mrs. Ford was a Hayes, and her name was Margaret.

Eric lowered his head and placed countless kisses on Margaret's cheeks, forehead, and lips. He smiled while kissing her, but there were tears in his eyes.
Then, Scott would argue, "I have Miss Kendall on my side, and she likes me the most."

"Maggie, you're awake! I've been waiting for this moment. I'm so, so glad. I knew you wouldn't break your word, and you said we'd grow old together and never leave each other."

Margaret, who had been in a vegetative state for three years, still hadn't figured out what happened after being kissed by her husband.

I just woke up. Why is Eric so happy? What happened?

Hot tears dripped onto her face.

Margaret moved her arm and struggled to hug her husband. However, she couldn't do so.

Fortunately, Eric didn't give up on his wife, took good care of her, and had someone to massage Margaret daily to keep her muscles from atrophying. So, when she woke up, although she was still in a daze and had trouble moving around, she could still move her fingers.

When the Ford Family came running in frantically, they saw this scene.

The crowd bristled and gathered around.

They thought Margaret had passed away and that Eric was crying.

His parents even tried to forcefully separate him from Margaret, but they failed. Still, Eric pulled back a bit to let his parents see the wide-awake Margaret.

"Maggie's awake!"

Mia shouted in excitement.

Upon hearing that, Kendall and Emma didn't have the heart to disturb the family.

Although Margaret was awake, the Ford Family still took her to the hospital so the doctor could do a thorough examination for her to make sure she was really awake. It was only then they could rest assured.

However, Margaret had been in a coma for over three years. Even though she was well cared for during the coma and had now woken up, she would take time to recover. She had to be hospitalized for a while. Even so, the Fords were happy. As Margaret had woken up, she could fully recover one day.

Eric also didn't forget to inform the Hayes Family that Margaret had woken up.

Naturally, the Hayes were ecstatic, and everyone came to the hospital.

Although Margaret was awake, she was still in a daze and hadn't eaten yet as she was on a nutritional infusion. The doctor said Margaret had been in a coma for too long and had just woken up, so she should slowly readjust to food. Margaret could start with water, then some soft food, so she could recover one step at a time.

The injuries she had sustained in the accident healed after three years, and she could have fully recovered if she hadn't been unconscious.

Her memory lingered on the moment of the car accident.

When Margaret finally saw Scott, she shed tears.
