My Ex-Husband Always Knew That I Had Cheated on Him-Chapter 317: He Might Never Wake Up

"...Okay."

Emily Sterling hesitated for a long time before nodding and agreeing to Clara Sterling’s request.

"Mom, actually, you and Uncle Sam..."

Chloe Simpson thought of Liam Thompson and spoke up again to persuade her mother.

Liam Thompson had liked Emily Sterling since Chloe was very, very young.

But Emily Sterling never directly responded to Liam Thompson all these years because of her.

In fact, Chloe had seen the way Emily Sterling and Liam Thompson were together.

She truly felt that the two of them were mutually affectionate.

Isn’t there a saying, love can’t be hidden, even if you cover your mouth, it will come out through your eyes.

Every time Emily Sterling was with Liam Thompson, that look in her eyes was very obvious.

"Chloe, don’t say it anymore, the way things are between your Uncle Sam and I is quite good."

Emily Sterling interrupted Chloe before she could finish speaking.

All these years, Emily Sterling had thought about being with Liam Thompson.

However, she did not want to wrong Chloe.

She feared that if she married Liam Thompson and had a child of their own, she wouldn’t be able to treat Chloe as well as she does now.

Also, she was afraid that after the child was born, Liam Thompson wouldn’t treat Chloe as well either.

Although Liam Thompson had assured her with great certainty that whether before or after marriage, he would treat Chloe as his own daughter.

But she still wasn’t reassured, and ultimately did not agree to Liam Thompson.

So the two of them went on like this for many years. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

But Liam Thompson still hasn’t married, and Emily Sterling has stayed by Chloe’s side till now.

Now at this age, both of them chose to remain silent and did not bring up the matter again.

Emily Sterling doesn’t know what Liam Thompson is thinking now, and Liam Thompson doesn’t know Emily Sterling’s thoughts either.

Neither of them dared to speak up; if they didn’t speak, they could continue going out to eat and be friends.

But once they spoke, if the other person didn’t feel the same, then they might really not be able to continue their relationship, and perhaps wouldn’t even be able to remain friends.

"Alright, I understand, Mom. Then I’ll ask you to contact Uncle Sam about Alexander’s situation."

Seeing Emily Sterling’s resistance, Chloe did not insist further.

"Okay, don’t worry. I’ll go find Uncle Sam right now."

Emily Sterling nodded, and after agreeing, went to find Liam Thompson.

Chloe returned to the hospital room, anxiously waiting.

Actually, she really hoped it wouldn’t be the outcome she dreaded. If it was, then Alexander Johnson would be in great danger.

Moreover, dealing with Gabriella Dyer wouldn’t be easy due to her status.

The only comforting aspect was that Alexander was hospitalized at Ansun Hospital.

It was where she and her mother had always worked, and they could still find some acquaintances, which was better than being at a strange hospital.

Emily came back quite quickly.

It took less than half an hour, but it would take Liam Thompson a few days to investigate.

In the days that followed, Chloe and Emily could only wait.

In the meantime, Emily also asked two acquaintances to check on Alexander in the ICU.

On about the fourth day, Liam Thompson called, and at that time, Alexander still hadn’t woken up.

"What? Okay, I understand."

Emily Sterling was stunned when she received the call, and it took her a long time to gather herself before hanging up.

"Mom, what’s wrong?"

Chloe knew something was wrong just by looking at Emily’s expression.

"Chloe, your Uncle Sam said that indeed someone tampered with things on Alexander’s end, adding medication during the surgery. Now, it has already caused irreversible damage, and he might never wake up."
