A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 358

As time went by, doctors and nurses went in and came out of the operating room, but no one stopped and told them about Cedric's situation.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the door of the operating room was finally opened.

They walked forward nervously, and asked, "Doctor, how's Ashe?"

"Is Ashe all right?"

"How's Cedric's injury?"

"Please calm down." The doctor reached out his hand to beckon them to calm down.

"Honey, don't worry. Listen to the doctor first." Hayden held Cornelia's shoulders and comforted.

Cornelia glanced at Hayden and waited for the doctor to speak nervously.

"Cedric is fine. The bullet didn't hurt his viscera and has been taken out. He will recover after a period of recuperation. Now, we will send him to the VIP ward."

"Thanks god." Cornelia, who had been nervous, muttered in Hayden's arms.

"Can you rest assured now?" Looking at Cornelia, Hayden shook his head and said.

"Cornelia, I'll stay here and take care of Ashe tonight."

Athena looked at Cedric, who had been pushed out "Let me stay here. You're in poor health recently."

"No. I must do something for Ashe. If she knew that he was injured, she would be very sad."

"Aunt Athena and Aunt Cornelia, both of you can go back. Let me take care of him."

Nacho, who had not spoken for a long time, interrupted Athena and Cornelia's conversation.

"Do you want to stay here with Ashe?" Athena looked at Nacho and said. Although she was very happy to see that Nacho was so nice to Cedric, she felt very guilty for Nacho.

"Yes. Go back with Joanna and Cheryl."

Nacho nodded faintly.

It was better for a man to take care of a patient in the hospital at night.

"Well, Ashley and Edward would be very happy to see that Cedric and you get along so well."

Looking at Nacho, Athena smiled.

Athena and Cornelia were about to take Joanna back home, but Joanna refused.

Joanna's face was pale, but her eyes were unusually bright.

"I'll stay here and take care of him."

Athena was worried about Joanna. When she was about to say something, Nacho said blandly, "Aunt Athena, let her stay here. I will take care of her."

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

Athena nodded, then left with Cornelia and Hayden. When Cheryl left, she looked at Nacho and Joanna meaningfully.

In the ward, the nurse gave Cedric an infusion and left. "When Cedric was young, he was a jerk."

Nacho sat on the sofa not far away and said indifferently.

Hearing this, Joanna looked up at Nacho in a daze.

Both Nacho and Cedric were very handsome. Probably because of their parents' good genes, they were very charming.

"Although he was a jerk and made a lot of trouble, he is my elder brother."

Nacho looked at Joanna with deep eyes and said.

"Why do you tell me this?" Joanna looked up at Nacho and then lowered her head.

"Because I know that you haven't forgiven him completely." Nacho looked at Joanna, and his green eyes became deeper.

"I'm very sorry about Arvin's death. If I could stop Cedric earlier, maybe he wouldn't die."

"It's not your fault." Hearing Arvin's name, Joanna felt a pain in her heart.

Memeries flashed back. She really hoped that she could forget them.

She clenched her fists, bit her lips, and said to Nacho in a muffled voice.

"Joanna, it's time to let go." Nacho sighed, and he looked so tired. "I know that you still hate Cedric. Sometimes, I'm very disappointed at what he has done and I don't want such a childish elder brother. But I have promised my mother that I will take care of him. He has been stubborn and arrogant since he was child. He didn't know what was love until he met you. Now he is learning how to love you."

"Nacho, stop."

Joanna looked at Nacho and said with tired eyes.

"I'm not trying to tell you how good Cedric is. I know that he did many terrible things to you. I only... hope you can think about it carefully. Don't be blinded by hatred."

"It's late. You can have a rest here. I'll watch the infusion for him"

Nacho said gently.

"Nacho, you are a very good man."

Joanna looked at Nacho's back and said in a low voice.

A group of doctors left the ward, and the originally crowded ward became much quieter.

Cedric struggled to get up, but the wound on his chest was as so painful, so he had to lie on the bed again. He panted heavily with a sweaty face.

"Don't move. You're injured." Nacho frowned and pressed Cedric's hand.

Cedric narrowed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Where... is Joanna? Is she all right?"

"She's fine." Nacho moved a chair, sat by Cedric's bed and said blandly.

"Is she... not here?" Hearing that Joanna was fine, Cedric let out a sigh of relief. But when he thought that Joanna didn't even accompany him when he was injured, he was a little sad.

Nacho seemed to know what Cedric was thinking about. He held his chin and said, "She stayed with you for a whole night. She looked so tired this morning, so I advised her to go back and change her clothes. After she has a good rest, she will come to accompany you."

"She... accompanied me for a whole night?" Cedric looked at Nacho in surprise as if he didn't believe Nacho's words.

Nacho looked at Cedric and said in a cold voice, "Yes."

"Then... don't bother her. Is the baby and Abigail alright?"

"They're fine. They were just frightened. I asked the housekeeper to make some soothing tea for them. Don't worry."

"Have you found out who sent those killers?"

Cedric's face turned cold and he said with fierce eyes.

"Blithe Harris from the Black Dragon Gang, he wanted to kill you."

Nacho played with the lighter in his hand and said with a poker face, "Last time, your bodyguard beat one of his bodyguards to death, so he wants to take revenge on you."

"I'll kill him!"

Cedric looked at Nacho maliciously and said with a horrible expression.

"We can't kill him now." Nacho frowned when he saw how impulsive Cedric was.

Blithe was powerful and colluded with gangsters recently. It was easy to cause problems if they didn't know Blithe's real strength before attacking him.

"Do you think I'm afraid of Blithe?" Cedric glanced at Nacho with displeasure and said in a colder voice.

"If you don't want Joanna, your child and Abigail to be involved, you'd better be careful."

Nacho looked at Cedric and said coldly.

Blithe was not a simple person. It only took him two years to become the leader of the Black Dragon Gang. It could be seen that he was so malicious and scheming.
