Chapter 361 Nichols Everywhere
“Got it, Clayton.”
After nodding with conviction, Xavian ran to the telephone poll and made the emergency call.
“Hello? Miss? I’m now at a telephone pole with serial number L-109X. There’s an old man here holding his chest in pain as if he is having a heart attack…”
While Xavian was making the emergency call, Clayton looked around for a public defibrillator.
Previously, he was intrigued to see them and had asked Natalie about their usage.
Given his interest, Natalie not only told him on how to use it but also demonstrated it once for him.
Even though Clayton had only seen it used once, the steps were clearly seared into his mind.
“Mister, the ambulance will be here anytime soon.” Pasting the metal strips of the defibrillator on Kenneth’s chest, Clayton reassured him, “Hang in there. My mom told me before that the will to live is extremely important. I know you’re in terrible pain, but I beg of you. You have to endure it!”
Despite how Clayton was trying his best to stay calm, his heart was already pounding furiously.
After all, he was aware that Kenneth’s life was in danger.
For the sake of saving a life, Clayton had no choice but to steel himself and get it done.
Glancing at the child by his side, Kenneth could see the concern in his eyes.
At that moment, Kenneth put all his hopes of survival on the two children.
Despite being amused by it, Kenneth was invigorated by the children’s motivational words.
Just when Clayton pressed the “shock” button on the defibrillator, it sent a current through Kenneth, causing his body and limbs to shake.
Five minutes later, the ambulance and medical staff arrived.
Sprawling on the ground, the medic checked Kenneth’s condition and found that his heart rate was recovering. When he turned and saw the children with the used defibrillator, he couldn’t help but gape in shock.
“Were you the ones who defibrillated the old man?”
After exchanging glances, Xavian and Clayton nodded in unison.
Having confirmed it with his own eyes, the medic was stunned on his feet.
Still worried about Kenneth’s condition, Clayton reminded him, “Mister, quick! Although I have defibrillated him, you had better send him to the hospital to be examined as soon as possible.”
Regaining their senses, the medics loaded Kenneth onto a stretcher and carried him into the ambulance.
“Clayton, shall we go with them?”
“Yes.” Clayton nodded. “Xavian, what about you?”
“My sentiments exactly.”
Having reached a consensus, the children got into the ambulance together with the medics.
Even though there was professional medical staff present, the children were still worried about Kenneth.
To them, their concerns would only be allayed when they were sure Kenneth was safe. In fact, they were surprised at how much they cared and couldn’t explain why.
Amidst his grogginess, Kenneth’s heart warmed when he saw the two children looking at him anxiously.
If not for them, he knew he would have lost his life by the street.
Soon, the ambulance arrived at the hospital where the doctors gave Kenneth a full-body check-up.
Fortunately, the children had used the defibrillator correctly and called the ambulance in time. Hence, the doctor declared that Kenneth was in a stable condition.
Shortly after, Kenneth regained his consciousness.
“Ahem, ahem!”
With his hand connected to a drip, Kenneth struggled to sit up before looking at the two children.
“Both of you, what are your names?” he asked.
“Xavian Nichols.”
“Clayton Nichols.”
Nichols again?
Kenneth furrowed his brows, as he was surprised at the number of Nichols that appeared in his life recently.
