The atmosphere in the air was suffocating and oppressive.
Sawyer Thompson knew the situation was bad.
But he never expected that Mrs. Thompson would have such an accident.
On one hand his mother, on the other his daughter.
At this mont, Sawyer felt as helpless as a child.
Dry words can't portray the pain that Sawyer was going through.
The voice of a police officer ca from over the phone, "Hello, Mr. Thompson, Mr. Thompson, can you hear ? Please co to Capital City Hospital imdiately..."
Sawyer couldn't hear anything else.
His abnormal state caught the attention of the Thompson Clan.
Mandel Thompson was the first to rush over, "Dad, Dad, what's happened?"
Then, Samuel Thompson and Mary Perryne also ran over.
"Sawyer! What's wrong?"
Sawyer tried hard to calm himself down, took a deep breath, and looked at Mandel, "Your Grandma, your Grandma, sothing...happened."
Mrs. Thompson had an accident!
Hearing this.
Everyone was stunned.
The faces of Evan Thompson and Jayden Thompson paled instantly.
Evan crouched down and grasped Sawyer's shoulder, "Big Brother, what did you say? What's happened to Mom?"
Although Mrs. Thompson had reached the age of senility.
Her health condition had always been good.
She had a physical health check regularly every month.
Although Evan wasn't often by his mother's side, he always looked at Mrs. Thompson's health report every month.
Her health check results were normal every month.
So why did sothing suddenly happen?
Jayden was also stunned and felt like the world was spinning. He could hardly believe it was true.
Why, why did it happen like this?
Tears stread down Sawyer's face.
He had been trying to control his emotions these days.
Now.
He couldn't control it anymore.
The news of Mrs. Thompson's accident beca the last straw that broke his back.
Evan went on, "Big Brother! Can you talk! What's happened to Mom? Where is she?"
Sawyer was crying too hard to speak.
Jayden also crouched down, "Big Brother!"
Mary Perryne was very anxious, "Sawyer, say sothing!"
It took a long while for Sawyer to regain his composure. No emotion could be seen from his face anymore. He said weakly, "Mom fainted on her way to St. John's Co-Cathedral. By the ti she was found by passersby, she had already lost consciousness. The hospital has given up rescue and told us to make preparations."
Overwheld by grief, Sawyer managed to choke out this piece of news.
He could hardly breathe.
After hearing this, Evan, Jayden, and all others present froze.
"What!?"
How could it be?
Though everyone had already guessed that Mrs. Thompson's condition wouldn't be very good.
They did not expect that Mrs. Thompson's situation was this serious.
Prepare for the worst?
Just yesterday Mrs. Thompson was perfectly fine.
How could they be preparing for the worst today?
Evan took a deep breath and then asked, "Which hospital is Mom at?"
Sawyer wiped the tears from his face, "Capital City Hospital too."
Rachel Barton stood behind Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight, looking at Sawyer crying.
Regret was all that was visible in her eyes.
There's no denying it.
All of this was as she anticipated.
The one thing Rachel didn't expect was that the old woman's luck was so good that she encountered soone who called the police. If no one had called the police, she would have frozen to death on the side of the road.
Well, this was good too.
What's the point of the old woman hanging on by a thread?
Dared she to think that she could wait for Viola Thompson?
Dream on.
This ti, Viola Thompson.
She was dood!
Thinking of this, a malicious light filled Rachel's eyes, and she clenched her fist.
She wanted to watch Viola Thompson die with her own eyes.
Then Mrs. Thompson...
Just at this mont.
An officer in uniform and a doctor were running toward them.
"Who is the family of Miss Sally Bennet?"
"We, we all are!" Mary Perryne and the two sisters-in-law imdiately answered.
The doctor nodded his head, then said, "Good, then please follow ."
Everyone followed the steps of the police officer and the doctor.
Mrs. Thompson had been moved from the ergency room to a hospital room.
She was lying on the bed, her face pale, a tube in her nose, showing no signs of life whatsoever.
At her first glance, anyone could tell she was on the brink of death.
"Mom!"
Sawyer, along with his two brothers, rushed over, sobbing, "Mom! Wake up!"
Because Mrs. Thompson missed the golden ti for rescue, plus with her great age and deteriorating physical condition, she was being kept alive by nutrient solution and a respirator.
Mary Perryne and two sisters-in-law stood on the side, shedding endless tears.
