Chapter 587 - 605 Uncomfortable
When John Brown woke up, there were quite a few people in the hospital room. Gina was holding Little Violet, who had already fallen asleep in Gina’s arms. Sandra, Sunny, and Melody were sitting by the bedside, while Lucy was sitting in the chair next to them.
"Brother-in-law, you’re awake!" Sandra exclaimed joyfully, tightly grabbing John Brown’s hand.
John Brown grasped Sandra’s hand in return and said, "Did I scare you?"
Sandra’s and John Brown’s hands were tightly clasped together as she said, "You really scared me to death."
John Brown, apart from feeling a bit dizzy, didn’t really feel uncomfortable. He smiled and said, "This time I really have to thank you, Sandra. If it weren’t for you, I might not have made it this time." He faced so many dangerous things, but each time he managed to come through with his ability. However, this time, if Sandra hadn’t carried him to the hospital, he might have lost his life to this sudden illness. It seems that no matter how strong one is, these special acute illnesses can catch you off guard.
"Honey, I’m sorry for worrying you." John Brown looked apologetically at Gina.
Gina was teary-eyed and said in a choked voice, "You know, you really scared me to death. When I got Sandra’s call, my legs went soft."
John Brown held Gina’s hand with his other hand and said, "It’s okay now. This was genuinely an accident; it won’t happen again."
Melody snorted at this point and said, "This is clearly ’good people have short lives, while bad ones live for a thousand years.’ You jerk, why didn’t your illness just do you in?"
John Brown knew that Melody’s words were just a special way of expressing herself. He smiled slightly and said, "If I were really dead, wouldn’t the child in your belly be fatherless?"
Melody said angrily, "Humph, then fatherless it shall be. We can’t expect anything from you as a dad anyway."
Lucy stood at the bedside at this point; she felt most guilty. She still had too much confidence in John Brown, thinking he was so strong that even a big shark could be easily killed by him. Getting hurt like this seemed like it wouldn’t be an issue. That’s why she was careless at the time, and they partied so hard that night. John Brown getting tetanus surely had to do with that night’s drinking and fooling around; naturally, she bore all the responsibility for such a serious incident.
