In the intensive care unit, there were different machines surrounding Alicia, who was lying on the bed. If it weren't for the oxygen tube that was attached to her, Frederick would've thought that she was just asleep. She looked just like Sleeping Beauty!, Standing at the head of the bed, Frederick felt like his brain was about to explode. It was as if he was in a dream., She'd just been joking around and complaining that he was naggy a short while ago. How did she end up lying here in the blink of an eye? Was God punishing him for taking too long to realize what he had? Was he taking her away so soon?, His Ally!, Tears rolled down Frederick's cheeks. When he realized it, his chest was already heaving., At this time, a nurse came to check on the IV drip as well as the machines. She also made some notes in a notebook. Frederick stood up straight and raised his head, forcing his tears back. After the nurse left, he sat down on the edge of the bed., On this night, Frederick held Alicia's hand and kept talking to her. He talked about how they met, their past, and envisioned their future. When the night started to give way to the day, Frederick's emotions started to become uncontrolled, and he subconsciously gripped her hand tightly.,

"Ally, don't leave me, okay? You'll wake up, won't you?

",

"Ally...

",

"How can I live without you? What should I do?

", He held her hand and pressed it against his forehead. Tears streamed down his cheeks. Was he going to once again lose the most important person in his life?,

"Are you really going to continue sleeping? Do you really have the heart to leave me and your mother? Ally, I'll take back the house and kick your mother to the curb! I'll...

", Towards the end of his sentence, Frederick was already sobbing so hard he couldn't continue. He didn't notice the slight movement of Alicia's eyes., Suddenly, he felt a slight movement from his hand, which made him freeze. He was stunned and couldn't regain his senses for a moment. He looked at the bed stiffly. Alicia struggled to open her heavy eyelids. Her gaze was still unfocused, but she definitely recognised the person in front of her.,

"Hubby? You., you are so bad!

", Her voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible. It used up all of her strength, and she slowly closed her eyes again. Frederick stood up abruptly, tears streaming down his shocked face.,

"Doctor! Doctor, she's awake! She's awake!

", On the other side, the nurse who was still comparing the data on the machine ran over immediately after hearing him shout. She looked at the monitor on top of Alicia's head, then lifted her eyelids to have a look., She exclaimed excitedly,

"She's conscious! I'm going to call the doctor!

", The nurse quickly ran out. After a while, Carson came in with several specialists in tow. Frederick moved aside. After some hurried checking, Carson's surprise was evident., He turned around and pointed to the door. Once they were out of the room and their masks were taken off, Carson spoke to Frederick.,

"Alicia has already made it past the most difficult stage! It's a miracle that she managed to wake up, let alone waking up so soon! Frederick, don't worry. As long as she has regained consciousness, she will be fine! Her body is obviously stronger than most people. It's probably, related to her habit of, .n, regularly. Her injuries are mainly external. Her fever hasn't completely subsided yet, and the next three days are still critical. We have senior personnel watching over her, and I'll be around too. You can't go in anymore, because non- professional individuals may bring in germs if they're not careful. She's still having a high fever, and she's dazed. With the medication, she won't be able to wake up so soon, and she still has to be monitored even after waking up. You can take the chance to arrange everything properly.

", Frederick's eyes, which were still red, were glued to Alicia. However, he knew that Carson was right. He would resist for Alicia's safety., He nodded and said,

"Okay, I'll listen to you!

", There were indeed some things that he had to make arrangements for., The fact that she had awakened was the greatest gift that the Heavens had bestowed upon him. At this moment, nothing meant more to him., Frederick didn't insist on entering, but he, didn't leave either. Instead, he sat down on the bench outside the ward and made several phone calls. He had to stay with her. He couldn't leave, he was worried about her! Soon, Chet arrived. He brought over some breakfast., Frederick ate his sandwich unblinkingly. Though he looked haggard, his eyes never left the entrance of the intensive care unit. He scrutinised every person that entered or exited. Chet opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Frederick as he spoke.,

"Master Trevor has sent over the surveillance footage, and I've arranged for some men to come over. The ward has been checked too. Everything is in place!

",

"Good.

" Frederick nodded. Something struck him.,

"What happened last night? Did you call the police?

",

"The police have already dropped by with some questions, and they'll probably be back later to record your statement. I've already gotten a copy of all the surveillance footage before they took it away. It seems to have been a well-prepared attack aimed at you We can vaguely see the figure driving the car, but it's obviously disguised. We can't tell whether it's a male or female because of the cap and wig. They've probably already staked out the, place a long time ago. The moment they drove off, they managed to avoid all the cameras. We still haven't found anything on them. I'll continue to follow up on the case!

" ,

"Don't say anything to the public. There's no need to pressure the police either. I want to solve this matter personally! Comb through, everything that you can get your net, hands on, starting from last night's banquet. I don't care who is the mastermind. I don't want them dead; I want them to suffer a fate worse, than death!

" , Frederick's tone was indifferent, but he gave off a sinister aura, and his gaze was icy., It had been a long time since Chet had seen this side of Frederick, and he couldn't help feeling a little frightened. However, he suddenly realized that someone had passed Frederick's line., In the following days, Frederick didn't step out of the hospital. Alicia was still slipping in and out of consciousness, but she hadn't truly woken up. However, on the morning of the third day, she was transferred to the normal ward., Frederick was relieved. Finally, he could see her., Looking at her face that was as pale as paper, all he could think about was images of her throwing herself at him. He gently picked up her hand and held it in his grasp. His heart ached so much that he felt like he was suffocating.,

"Hubby...

", A long awaited voice rang out. The next second, Frederick felt a clear yet weak force coming from his hands. His eyes focused on Alicia's face, and he met her clear gaze., Search the website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
