Chapter 1116 Pay the Price
"Miss Willigen! Are you OK?"
No sooner had Gaven ended the phone than he saw that Anya, sweating, held her stomach in pain.
Then he anxiously asked about her feeling.
"My stomach hurts..."
"My child..."
Anya could hardly say a word due to the pain. The ambulance didn't arrive, and Gaven could do
nothing but feel anxious.
Especially seeing that there was blood trickling down between her legs, he was so flustered that he felt
weak in his knee and toppled to the ground.
What would happen to Mr. Henderson and his child...
Gaven couldn't continue thinking about it. He forced himself to stand up again. After the ambulance
arrived, he helped medical workers to get Phil and Anya to the ambulance and then told the details to
the police.
In Chiobar, Julian and other people had prepared to welcome Phil and Anya. As they heard that bad
news, Emelia's eyes were red-rimmed.
She clutched Julian's arm and asked anxiously, "What should we do now? Will Anya and her child be
OK? Will Phil be all right?"
"Let's hurry there. I'm just too agonized."
Julian also looked awful. They had not experienced such things since they received death threats from
their competitors when they studied abroad and started up business there at the very beginning.
Thinking of this, Julian comforted Emelia in a trembling voice, "Don't worry. I'm about to prepare a
private plane right now. And we'll be there as soon as possible."
"That's good," Emelia wiped away her tears and said, "I'll contact Maisie."
Then they did what they planned to do. But before Emelia did that, Maisie and Ezra, who had known
what happened to Phil and Anya at about the same time, had arrived at the Hughes Manor hurriedly.
Soon afterward, Arthur also came there. They all decided to go to Ustistan without discussion. It was
not convenient for Jean to go with them because she just gave birth two months ago, and thus she
needed to take care of the baby.
And then, here came Nina. Cameron had stayed in his lab for a long time due to the recent research
tasks; and Nina couldn't interrupt him, thereby deciding to visit Anya with Emelia on her own.
In such a situation, unless they were really occupied with something, they would absolutely go to
Ustistan, or feel worried in Chiobar.
They reconciled everything as soon as possible and then went aboard by private plane.
In a Ustistan's hospital. Phil was in emergency surgery while Anya got a check-up. They were both in
bad situations, especially Anya whose baby was bound to be born prematurely. However, there was a
doubt whether such a premature baby would survive.
Gaven was totally at a loss for what decision he should make if the worst happened; he could only pray
that Julian and other people would get here at once.
Arthur asked an exceptional surgeon, his senior schoolmate in medical school whom he only believed
in, to operate on Phil.
And he spared no effort to find the best medical specialists in his connections, seeking to save both
Anya and her baby.
Fortunately, as they arrived at the hospital, they got some good news from Gaven.
The surgery had been finished a long time ago. The doctor said Phil was out of danger but still in ICU. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
It was because the bullet was so close to his heart that he should be observed in case there would be
other complications
It was exactly a silver lining. What if in the heart?
But Anya's situation was not that good. Her premature baby was sent to ICU and had to stay in the
incubator.
Anya herself had survived but was very weak owing to this premature birth, which did damage her
health.
When Emelia entered the ward, Anya was sobbing.
She was too weak to cry out, but she couldn't help feeling sad and sorrowful.
As she thought of her newly-born baby lying in an incubator covered in tubes, she just wished to suffer
these for her child.
"Anya..." When Emelia and other people saw Anya cry like that, they felt bad with their rims of eyes
turning red.
And then Emelia stepped forward, held Anya's hands, and said, "We know you are feeling sorry and
miserable now, but you should stop crying. It may hurt your eyes since you have just given childbirth."
"That's right. You need to stop," said Maisie. They both had experience, and they felt bad for Anya and
comforted her.
As mothers, they totally had empathy with Anya. They knew Anya must have a terrible feeling.
"Why...Why are you here?" Anya spoke in a hoarse voice.
Though shocked, she admitted that she sighed with relief in her mind as she saw them. She seemed to
see rays of hope and find spiritual pillars in such a foreign country when Phil was still in the ICU.
"We hurried here as soon as we got your news," Maisie said, "and you should speak and think less
now. Just close your eyes and sleep and leave anything else to us."
"And we just had a look at your baby. The doctor said her cry was loud. She is a tough girl and she'll be
OK." Nina comforted Anya.
Anya gave birth to a girl as Phil wished.
They were not allowed to enter the ICU, and thus they could only look at her for a while through the
outside window.
Generally, a premature baby was in a very dangerous situation. They only sighed with relief after the
doctor told them the baby was good.
Nina's words made Anya weep again. Emelia wiped Anya's tears with her heart aching for her. And this
time, Anya clenched her teeth and stopped crying.
She thought they were right that she should not keep on crying. If it caused her to lose her sight, she
could never see her daughter. She hadn't taken a good look at her precious daughter yet.
"Just get some sleep." Surrounded by them, Anya then fell into a deep slumber.
While they were taking care of Anya here, Julian and others were visiting Phil who was in the ICU like
his daughter.
After talking with the doctor, they began to look into the shooting. The first suspect was the opposite
faction of the company to be acquired in Nortopia, and the second one was Trisitn. Therefore, they
were about to investigate them simultaneously.
This time, no matter who were the people behind the incident, they would by no means be spared.
They must bleed for what they did.
