A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 172

Hailey, Hailey...

She faintly heard the sound of Hailey crying, which tugged at her heart and made it impossible for her to keep going.

She stood in the mist, slowly turning around, only to see Hailey running toward her.

"Eleanor, don't leave, come back, I have so many things to tell you..."

She tried to respond to Hailey but found that she couldn't speak.

Fresh oxygen entered, easing her suffocated heart a little.

Gradually, the fog disappeared, and Hailey was gone, leaving her completely unconscious...

"Dr. Terrill, her heartbeat is back!"

"Hurry up, keep giving her oxygen!"

Liana saw the erratic data on the electrocardiogram and suddenly felt weak.

This was the first time she had been so nervous about a patient, fearing that she would just pass away.

Her hands were still trembling, and she had no strength to even lift them.

"How's the injury on the back of her head?"

A doctor had just stopped the bleeding from the wound and noticed Dr. Terrill's panicked expression, knowing that this patient was essential to her.

"The bleeding has stopped, and we just need to remove the nail once we're at the hospital."

The doctor added, "Fortunately, the nail wasn't long enough to damage any blood vessels or nerves, or she would have been brain dead by now."

Liana nodded in understanding, reached out to touch Eleanor's hand, which had been as cold as ice but was now slowly warming up.

The hospital was not far from where the accident happened. She arrived in time, just within the golden period of rescue, or Eleanor would have been beyond saving.

But after all this turmoil, she feared Eleanor might not even make it for two months...

As she was staring at Eleanor in sorrow, Bernard's call came in.

The nail on the back of her head needed to be removed immediately, so Liana hurriedly changed into a sterile gown to perform the surgery herself.

With the hospital director's personal involvement and some of the most outstanding doctors, the nail was successfully removed.

After arranging for Eleanor to be placed in a VIP ward, Liana took off her surgical gown and went to her office.

"Dr. Terrill."

As soon as she sat down at her desk, a nurse who had followed her to the scene handed Liana the patient's phone, bag, and Gucci paper bag.

"These belong to the patient. I picked them up for her."

After receiving the items, Liana looked at the young nurse with admiration, "Thank you, you're very attentive."

The nurse's face turned a bit red as she said, 'Well, Dr. Terrill, I'll get back to work now,' and left the director's office.

Just as Liana was about to put those things aside, a call from "Hailey" came in.

Seeing the name, Liana finally realized that Eleanor's sister was the same Ms. Vulpe who had called her little hottie last time.
