I am willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years and become a vegetarian.”
“I beg the Bodhisattva to bless my granddaughter!”
Under the dim street lamp, the figure of Lady Thompson seemed particularly lonesome.
The woman over ninety years old, the only wish she had now was for her granddaughter's speedy recovery.
If prostrating oneself three times while kowtowing nine times really worked, then she was willing to give it a try.
If Sally Bennett could do it, so could she!
Her granddaughter was bound to be much better than Sally Bennett's granddaughter in the future.
Upon this thought, Lady Thompson squinted.
Lady Thompson was deeply absorbed in praying to the Bodhisattva and kowtowing, which caused her to overlook the bicycle that was just passing by her.
The cyclist realized something was off, she squeezed the brakes, rafted a long leg on the ground, and looked back.
Under the darkness, an old lady was praying devoutly on her own.
As she wasn't very far away, she could even hear Lady Thompson's voice.
“I, Yvonne Edmonds, pray here today to the Bodhisattva, seeking protection for my granddaughter. I am willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years, and become a vegetarian.”
Upon hearing this, a wrenching pain gripped Viola Thompson's heart.
It was excruciating.
She could barely breathe.
The scene in front of her abruptly became a world of swirling snow.
The praying old woman slowly morphed into Mrs. Thompson.
She could not imagine the immense pain her grandmother must have gone through at that time.
What kind of desperation would drive someone to prostrate and kowtow in a plea for peace?
Back then, Rachel Barton intended to cause the death of Mrs. Thompson.
After all, not many elders could withstand the freezing temperature of minus twenty degrees.
Viola Thompson's hand, which was holding the bicycle handle, began to tighten unconsciously.
Her fingers were long, with clearly defined knuckles. Because of her excessive force, the red blood vessels on the back of her hands were clearly visible.
At the same time, her body was engulfed in bone-piercing cold.
One dared not to meet her eyes directly.
“Master?”
Seeing Viola Thompson's abnormal mood, Nathaniel Besian cautiously inquired.
Viola Thompson was brought back to her senses, the snowy world in front of her became the real world again. She turned her eyes to Nathaniel Besian, “What's up?”
“Are…are you okay?”
Without directly answering Nathaniel Besian's question, Viola Thompson asked, “Is that Lady Thompson of the Thompson Clan?”
“Yes.” Nathaniel Besian nodded.
“What happened to their family?”
Nathaniel Besian didn't inform Viola Thompson about Thompson's accident.
Therefore, Viola Thompson was still in the dark about it.
Upon hearing this, Nathaniel Besian replied, “Thompson had an accident and is still in a coma. Mrs. Thompson is probably praying for a blessing for Thompson.”
Viola Thompson took a deep breath and did not say anything else, “Let's go back.”
“Okay.”
Although Viola Thompson didn't say anything more, Nathaniel Besian felt that her expression was off.
Half an hour later, the two returned to the hotel. “Bob, I'll head upstairs first to prepare. Arrange the car.”
“Master, where are you going this late at night?” Nathaniel Besian asked.
Viola Thompson replied indifferently, “To the hospital.”
Just three words.
Upon hearing this, Nathaniel Besian exclaimed, “Master, are you going to perform surgery on Thompson?”
“Yes.” Viola Thompson nodded slightly.
Nathaniel Besian was taken aback, “Why?”
Lady Thompson had wronged Viola Thompson so much that, realistically, Viola Thompson shouldn't be offering to perform surgery on Thompson at a time like this!
But…
Viola Thompson didn't answer, she turned around and walked towards the stairs.
He could never understand what she was thinking!
Nathaniel Besian immediately left to arrange for the vehicle.
After ten minutes, Viola Thompson came downstairs with her medical kit, and Nathaniel Besian had prepared the car.
Viola Thompson sat in the car.
While watching the scenery go by, the image of Mrs. Thompson fainting in the snow while praying for her kept appearing in her mind.
No matter what had happened between Lady Thompson and her, she would not want history to repeat itself; it was enough for the same tragedy to happen once.
“Drive a bit faster.” Viola Thompson spoke softly.
“Yes, Master!” Nathaniel Besian floored the accelerator.
Soon, the car arrived at the hospital. Viola Thompson showed her ID and quickly made her way to the office of the hospital director.
At two in the morning, there were only on-duty doctors in the hospital. The director personally called Thompson's two main surgeons to urgently come over.
In the patient's room, Levi Thompson and Rosalind Rohr were shocked awake from their sleep by a loud noise: “Are Thompson's family members here?”
“Here!” Levi Thompson stood up from his chair at once. “I am Thompson's father, what's the matter?”
The nurse continued, “Please get ready. Senior Suen will personally operate on Thompson in ten minutes!”
Upon hearing this, Levi Thompson thought he was having auditory hallucinations!
