Chapter 439 Blood From Orifices
Natalie’s head started aching, noticing Charles was present too.
She had wanted to leave quietly after her treatment on Scarlett. Unfortunately, luck is not with me today. The grump has arrived, yet the dumb is still here.
Her mouth dried at the thought of coming up with an explanation.
Charles walked over to Zayden with a cane. “What’s going on here? What’s with this woman? Who is she? Why is she also in Scarlett’s room?”
Zayden frowned and explained Natalie’s identity to him.
“No way! She’s lying!” Charles’ temper spiked. “Are you casting black magic on my granddaughter? The reason you stabbed her with these needles was to bind her soul here to stop her from ascending to Heaven.”
Natalie rolled her eyes at his imaginary nonsense.
“I’ll only say this once, so open up your ears and listen to me. This is not black magic, but a medical procedure to help your granddaughter.” Something flashed across Natalie’s eyes. “I believe Mr. Zayden has heard the doctor’s advice. “Ms. Scarlett had been announced brain death since only a few of her bodily functions were still functioning.
“I was trying to save her with these needles on her head. I’m not trying to harm her.”
Natalie’s figure was very slim, and especially so, under the loose hospital gown.
The confidence and calmness shining in her hazel eyes convinced the duo.
Zayden was stunned.
Even the over eighty-year-old Charles was affected by Natalie’s confident yet calming presence. He stopped his complaining and merely waited for Natalie to finish.
All of a sudden, Scarlett started to cough heavily.
Ahem!
Glee filled Charles and Zayden as they approached Scarlett’s bed, thinking she would wake up from her coma.
However, they were thunderstruck by the bloody scene.
Scarlett started to cough up dark brownish-red blood. The blood wasn’t only expelled from her mouth. It had also flowed out from her nose, eyes, and ears. She was bleeding from all her orifices. There was so much blood that it dripped onto the pillow and the bed.
“Blood!” Zayden began screaming at Natalie from the shock. “You said you’re good at this. You said you could save my sister. Why is there blood coming out of her from all the orifices?”
“Scarlett! Scarlett!” Tears were flowing out of Charles’ eyes as he accused, “You are a bloody witch! Yet, you say you’re not using black magic. You’re blatantly punishing my granddaughter. Are you trying to keep her here on Earth and let her transform into evil?”
Zayden and Charles were furious at Natalie yet anxious for Scarlett.
Even if Scarlett was at fault, she shouldn’t receive such cruel punishment.
Natalie bit her lower lip and merely shrugged her shoulder resignedly. Where else should the blood escape from within the brain if not the closest orifices on the head? Are they expecting it to come out through her bladder?
Scarlett can be saved if all that blood flows out of her body, instead of being stuck inside.
These two men really come from the same family. One is stupid, and the other is just grumpy.
Zayden was young, and his frustration turned into anger. He got up in front of Natalie’s face and accused, “So what if you’re Samuel’s fiancée? Do you take the Hamiltons as doormats you can step on freely? I’ll show you what a Hamilton is capable of.”
Billy, who was standing guard outside the ward, heard the commotion and was about to barge in to teach Zayden a lesson.
“Where am I?” A voice questioned curiously amid the ruckus. Everyone turned toward the bed to see that Scarlett had woken up from all the noises.
“Scarlett!” Zayden ran back to Scarlett’s bed and laughed while tears of relief rushed from his eyes. “Everything is fine now that you’re awake. You almost gave me a heart attack. The doctor had even announced you’re in a coma. I’m so glad that you’re fine.”
Zayden was lost in happiness while Charles was staring at Natalie with disbelief.
