Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: It Really Is Baron Lawrence's Grandfather in the Hospital Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: It Really Is Baron Lawrence's Grandfather in the Hospital By this time, Baron Lawrence had already exited the car, naturally taking her hand. His handsome face was stern and aristocratic as he spoke with a quiet, deep voice, “Let's go.”
“Okay.”
Enna Clark followed his pace and entered the hospital.
The further they went inside, the stronger her sense of foreboding became.
This was because, apart from the many luxury cars and several bodyguards outside the hospital, there were even more bodyguards inside the corridors. The deeper they went, the stricter the security seemed, as if something major had happened!
In the Lawrence Family, apart from Old Master Lawrence, she couldn't think of anyone else whose hospitalization would warrant such heavy bodyguard protection.
But she had just seen the Old Master in the morning, hadn't she?
He had even eaten the Tomato and Egg Noodles she had prepared.
At that time, although the Old Master looked tired, he certainly didn't seem to be in a condition that warranted hospitalization.
If it wasn't the Old Master who was hospitalized, why were there so many bodyguards?
Enna Clark bit her lower lip and furrowed her brows, keeping up with the man beside her…
The operating room was located at the innermost part of the hospital, and Baron Lawrence walked briskly towards it, quickly arriving outside the operating room.
Before even reaching the family waiting area outside the operating room, they saw a group of people in suits standing guard outside. Upon seeing him, the quietly whispering crowd immediately turned their attention to them, greeting him one after another.
“Young Master Lawrence.”
“Young Master Lawrence.”
“Lord.”
Baron Lawrence ignored each one of them, his face taut, expressionlessly pulling Enna Clark's hand as they passed through the crowd.
After passing through the crowd outside, they entered the family waiting area, where there were far fewer people.
Apart from Skye Lawrence whom Enna Clark recognized, there was a rugged-looking man and a few others she didn't know.
Everyone's faces looked grim, and the atmosphere in the waiting room was exceptionally tense.
As soon as Baron Lawrence arrived, the people inside reacted just like those outside, their gazes all turning toward them in unison.
When Skye Lawrence saw that Enna Clark had also come, a flicker of emotion passed through her almond eyes. But quickly, she suppressed it, stood up, and approached Baron Lawrence, “Why have you only just arrived?”
“Traffic on the road.” After Baron Lawrence finished speaking, he asked her, “How's the Old Man?”
Skye Lawrence pursed her red lips, glancing subtly at Enna Clark beside him, as if holding back something, she said, “Still in resuscitation. The nurse came out a while ago, said the surgery is going smoothly so far. For the specifics, we still have to see if things will go well from here on. If they do, there won't be any life-threatening danger, but if not…”
If the surgery doesn't go well, what other outcome could there be besides endangering life?
Baron Lawrence's face was as somber as water.
Enna Clark could feel the strength in his grip on her wrist increase slightly, as if he was struggling to control his emotions.
She bit down on her lower lip and quietly clasped the man's hand, subtly offering him a supportive strength.
Because, apart from that, she didn't know what else she could do.
It was really Old Master Lawrence who was hospitalized. Her previous bad premonitions had all become reality, even more serious than she had imagined. The Old Master was actually still in the operating room for emergency treatment… Apart from shock and astonishment, her mind was now completely blank.
Wasn't the Old Master all right when she had seen him in the morning?
What exactly had happened for him to suddenly need emergency surgery?
And the Housekeeper, why had she not seen him at all from the beginning until now? Wasn't the Housekeeper together with Old Master Lawrence in the morning?
