Memories Of The Night - Chapter 544
Instead of rejecting Eric’s offer, Katrina nods, “Thank you, Grandpa. Please take care of Owen for the time being.”
Then she turns her head and looks at Joseph, “Sorry to bother you, Joseph.”
From deciding to go to Hadley City to find Aaron, to boarding the plane, it takes only one hour.
On the plane, Katrina puts her hands on her knees and clutches at her hemline nervously.
She doesn’t know what she’s panicking about.
In short, as long as she doesn’t see Aaron, she feels agitated and uneasy.
Probably feeling her distraction and worry, Joseph puts one hand on her shoulder and comforts her, “Aaron will be fine.”
Fortunately, Katrina has Joseph to rely on now.
Hearing his comfort, Katrina feels that maybe she’s just too sensitive.
At least she can get in touch with Aaron now. The situation is not too bad.
After a long flight of several hours, they arrive in Hadley City. Katrina calls Aaron immediately, wanting to know where he is.
However, Aaron’s phone is turned off, and Katrina can’t get through.
By this time, Katrina’s original calm mood becomes tense again.
Where on earth is Aaron?
Why is his phone off?
Just as Katrina is anxious, Joseph pacifies her, “Let’s go to the wedding site first. Maybe we can get something there.”
Katrina nods and goes straight to the hotel where Duke and Annie have their wedding.
By the time she hurries there, all the guests have left. Some hotel staff are removing balloons hanging on the walls and flower decorations.
Seeing this scene, Katrina immediately stops a staff member and asks, “Hello, is the groom who is married here today called Duke Wilson?”
Hearing Katrina’s question, the staff laughs disdainfully, “Groom? The wedding has been canceled. There’s no groom here.”
When Katrina hears this, she knows that they have found the right place.
It seems that Aaron’s plan is really going well.
Katrina asks again, “Do you know where the groom’s brother has gone? When did he leave?”
“He left hours ago. Edward Wilson was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted. He was taken to the hospital.”
Katrina is immediately surprised.
What?
Was Edward taken to the hospital?
No wonder, when Aaron called her before, he seemed to hide something.
Is his father seriously ill?
“Thank you.”
Katrina thanks the staff and immediately heads for the hospital with Joseph.
Seeing her anxious look, Joseph is worried. They have flown for several hours. When they got off the plane, they went straight to the hotel without even having time to drink some water.
Joseph grabs Katrina’s arm and says, “Katrina, I’ll book a room for you at the hotel. Stay there, and have a good rest. I’ll go to the hospital first. I’ll call you if anything happens.”
However, when she hears Joseph’s suggestion, Katrina refuses.
“No, I’ll go to the hospital with you. I’m all right. Only when I see him can I rest assured. Otherwise, I really can’t calm down and have a good rest. I’d better go to the hospital and find him instead of worrying about him in the hotel.”
Now, she neither knows how Edward is, nor how Aaron is.
She really can’t rest at ease in the hotel.
Hearing Katrina’s words and seeing her affirmative eyes, Joseph finally chooses to compromise.
“Well, let’s go together.”
Half an hour later, Katrina and Joseph arrive at the hospital.
When they come to the operating room, Katrina finds Aaron sitting on the bench outside the operating room.
Katrina feels so sorrowful.
It’s been a long time…
But Edward is still in the operating room?
A few hours ago, when he received her call, how hard did he try to disguise his mood and not let her worry about him?
Fortunately, she has sensitively perceived something wrong.
Fortunately, she comes in time.
Otherwise, he will face such a terrible situation alone. How lonely he will be!
Katrina walks slowly towards Aaron…
At this point, Aaron is sitting on a chair with his head down, his hands in his hair, and his eyes closed tightly.
Edward has been in the operating room all afternoon.
There’s no news in the operating room for such a long time. The intuition tells Aaron that it may be fraught with grim possibilities.
As soon as the thought that Edward will probably leave appears, Aaron feels as if something penetrated into his heart so hard. He’s surrounded by remorse and pain.
After a while, Aaron opens his eyes, finding a pair of shoes in front of him. He looks up slowly.
He sees Katrina in front of him.
The moment he sees her, his dim eyes immediately fill with incredulity. For a moment, he forgets to breathe and to call her name.
He can’t tell whether it is an illusion or reality.
Why does Katrina appear in front of him like magic?
It is Katrina who first reaches out and grabs Aaron’s hand, “Aaron, I’m here for you.”
Aaron feels the softness of her fingers.
At this time, what he can express is just a surprise. He feels much moved.
Aaron immediately stands up and holds her in his arms. He hugs her tightly, his chin resting on her shoulders, reluctant to let go.
Aaron’s voice is hoarse, and he whispers, “Didn’t I ask you to wait for me at home? Why are you here?”
Although he’s surprised and moved to see her here, he still doesn’t want to see her tired.
Katrina holds Aaron and says softly, “I can’t rest assured of you, so I come to see you. Aaron, whatever happens, you have me. I’ll face it with you.”
Hearing Katrina’s words, Aaron has a complicated feeling in his heart.
Initially, because of Edward’s illness, Aaron is extremely depressed. He constantly thinks if his father will be okay or not. But now he seems to be full of warmth all at once.
Although she’s small, she gives him unlimited energy. She always becomes his strength.
