The doctor said, "Yes, but it’s best not to have too many people at once. The patient needs quiet rest."
"Okay."
Rebecca Quentin and Mrs. Geoffrey had tears of joy in their eyes...
Skyler Jones imdiately said to Mrs. Geoffrey, "Mom, Marie is alone at the hotel. Could you go check on her for ..."
Mrs. Geoffrey nodded, "Alright."
"Don’t go in to see my sister... If she wakes up and you say sothing cruel to her, she can’t bear it."
Breaking free from Howard Geoffrey’s embrace, Rebecca Quentin reached out to stop Skyler Jones from entering the ward and sarcastically said.
Rebecca Quentin’s sarcasm made Skyler Jones halt his steps.
"Becca..." Howard Geoffrey held his wife and shook his head at her.
Rebecca Quentin struggled free from Howard Geoffrey, furiously, "All you do is protect him, have you ever thought about my sister? What does her years of devotion to him an to him deep down?"
Rebecca Quentin’s words made everyone fall silent.
Even Howard Geoffrey was powerless when it ca to others’ emotional issues.
Skyler Jones’s steps stopped at the threshold of the ward.
Rebecca Quentin pushed Skyler Jones aside and gently walked into the ward.
Sitting beside the bed, holding Christine Quinn’s cold hand, Rebecca Quentin’s tears slid down like broken pearls.
She kept blaming herself, "I’m sorry, sis... It’s because I encouraged you to be with him again and again that you’re enduring so much now..."
"I always thought he could take care of you, but I didn’t foresee him hurting you ti and again..."
"Sis... please wake up soon... I’m really scared... sis... you’re my only family in this world, I can’t be without you..."
Rebecca Quentin’s sobbing faintly reached Christine Quinn’s ears.
Christine Quinn’s lips moved slightly, trying to make a sound.
Rebecca Quentin, who had been staring at Christine’s pale face, noticed her slightly trembling lips, imdiately wiped away her tears, and joyfully said, "Sis, you can hear , right? Sis... wake up soon..."
"You’re so noisy, Becca..."
A hoarse voice ca from Christine Quinn’s pale, dry lips.
Rebecca Quentin, in disbelief, tightly held Christine’s hand, "Sis, sis... is it you talking to ? Sis... you’ve awakened..."
Christine Quinn’s quivering lashes slowly opened. Though her complexion was still weak, she regained so vitality, "Becca..."
Hearing Christine Quinn genuinely call her, Rebecca Quentin’s joy overflowed into tears...
She excitedly called out, "Mom, Howard, sis has woken up..."
Seeing this scene through the glass window, Mrs. Geoffrey and Howard Geoffrey imdiately rushed inside...
Soon the doctor and nurse arrived, everyone was relieved that Christine Quinn was awake...
No one noticed the tall figure standing outside the glass window, who never stepped into the ward. He just stood far away, watching her, with a handso face filled with joy but also self-bla and guilt, as if unable to face her.
Christine Quinn woke up, everyone was so happy.
At this mont, Rebecca Quentin sat beside, peeling an apple for Christine Quinn. Mrs. Geoffrey lovingly stood by, and Marie nestled in Christine’s arms, chatting with her.
"Mommy, thank goodness you woke up, otherwise I’d be lost on my own..."
"Silly girl, how would mommy ever leave you?" The color now pretty much returned, Christine Quinn guiltlessly kissed Marie, "Mommy just went to France for a vacation."
Marie pouted, "Mommy, stop lying... I already know, it’s because you were mad at daddy that you ca to France alone... Daddy caused you to be unwell in hospital, so I’m ignoring daddy and don’t want to talk to him."
"Silly..."
Christine Quinn patted her daughter lovingly before her gaze swept around the ward.
Rebecca Quentin noticed Christine Quinn’s searching look, couldn’t help but ask, "Sis, who are you looking for?"
Christine Quinn asked, "You’re all here... so where are Howard and Oversky?"
Rebecca Quentin said, "Howard is outside on the phone, as for him..." Rebecca Quentin’s tone suddenly turned disdainful, "I don’t know, it seed the nurse said he’s asking the doctor about your condition!"
Noticing Rebecca Quentin’s tone, Christine Quinn furrowed her brows slightly, "What’s wrong with you all? Why target him?"
Marie, straightforward and innocent, blurted out, "Because daddy caused mommy to be in hospital... I don’t want to talk to daddy either."
