Chapter 243 - 242 Irene in Trouble (Part 2)
"What’s the matter?" His voice was a bit impatient, but because he was in the middle of making love, it lacked the usual anger.
"Young master, something bad happened, Miss Irene had an accident!"
Irene had an accident?
Asher Land’s body stiffened, without thinking much, he withdrew from her body and hurriedly put on the robe beside the bed.
When he walked out of the room, he didn’t even spare a glance at her beneath him.
Sophie Smith clutched the quilt tightly around her body, feeling somewhat paralyzed, her eyes blankly staring at the tightly closed door, as if all emotions had been drained away for a moment.
She naturally knew about Irene’s importance to him.
As Asher Land rushed out the door, he saw Nanny Garcia standing outside with a worried look, constantly rubbing her hands.
"What happened to Irene?"
"Miss Irene had a car accident!" Nanny Garcia’s voice carried a slight tremble, "Young master, what should we do?"
A car accident? Asher Land’s mind went blank for a moment, and a few seconds later, he came to his senses.
"What on earth happened? How is she now?"
"Miss Irene encountered a traffic jam on her way to the airport today, but she was in a hurry to catch a flight, so she asked the driver to take a suburban route to the airport. As a result, the driver was also anxious and accidentally collided with another car. She’s still being rescued in the hospital now!"
Asher Land said no more, rushed back to his room, and quickly changed his clothes.
"Is Irene okay?" Sophie Smith, who was still in bed, was also a bit anxious. She had overheard the conversation between Nanny Garcia and Asher Land just now.
"I don’t know yet."
"I’ll go with you to see Irene!" She was just about to get out of bed when he stopped her.
"No need." He didn’t even give her a reason for not needing her to go, just left her there and left quickly.
Disappointment flickered in Sophie Smith’s eyes. She was worried about Irene too, but she thought he was probably afraid she’d be in the way.
...
When Asher Land arrived at the hospital, Irene had just finished surgery and was wheeled out of the emergency room.
"How is she? Is she alright?" He couldn’t wait to ask the doctor.
"Mr. Land, you don’t have to worry. The patient has passed the critical phase. However, she suffered severe head trauma, and her consciousness is still unclear. If she wakes, it might take some time. Please be patient."
After hearing the doctor, Asher Land breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat by the bedside, looking at the unconscious Irene, with a hint of guilt in his eyes.
He stayed by the bedside all night, but Irene showed no signs of waking.
He took out his phone, walked out of the ward, and called Nanny Garcia, asking her to send some of Irene’s clothes over.
Nanny Garcia hung up the phone and began to pack.
"Nanny Garcia, what are you doing?" Sophie Smith stood aside and asked.
"Oh, the young master instructed me to bring some change of clothes for Miss Irene. She might have to stay in the hospital for a while."
"What’s Irene’s current condition?" Sophie Smith was also extremely uneasy.
"I don’t know either." Nanny Garcia sighed deeply, "Right now, the young master is taking care of Miss Irene at the hospital. He called just now, and I didn’t dare ask. Do you think that young master, being just a man, can take care of a patient?..."
"Nanny Garcia, give me the things you were going to bring for Irene. I’ll go to the hospital."
"That’s not good, how can I trouble Miss Smith with this?" Nanny Garcia was a bit embarrassed.
"Now’s not the time to talk about this; I just want to go to the hospital to make sure Irene’s condition is okay."
