Chapter 716
The crocodile's skin was thick, but the blood splattered on his face was his own!
He nearly wrecked his hands before he stopped!
Gasping for air, he lay back on the grass, staring up at the azure sky, his heart trembling.
After what seemed like an eternity, his phone rang.
He answered with his left hand, "Speak!"
"Plan B is in motion, successful."
Keith let out a cold laugh, "Got it. Send me the hospital's location."
After hanging up, Keith stared at the sky, his laughter starting softly before swelling into a booming cackle.
His sinister laughter sent the birds in the forest into a frantic flurry.
At that moment, Elysia was rushing to the hospital.
She had just received a call from Blossom, saying Elliot had been badly injured in an attack while they were hiking in the mountains. The school had already contacted the police, and Elliot had been taken to a nearby hospital.
The news nearly knocked Elysia off her feet!
She was now pale as a ghost in the back of a taxi, her body trembling, not quite sobbing, but tears streaming down her face non-stop. Elijah was heartbroken but felt helpless, knowing there was no consoling Mom at this moment.
All he could do was sit by her, furrowing his little brows in worry for Mom and Elliot.
Suddenly, the phone rang. It was Tarquin. Elysia acted as if she hadn't heard.
Elijah picked up, "Hello, Dad."
Tarquin's voice was filled with urgency, "Where's your mom?"This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
"She's with me. We're on our way to the hospital."
"I'm on my way too. Tell your mom not to worry. Elliot's going to be fine. I've already contacted Benjamin to bring a team of pediatric specialists over..."
"Okay."
When Elysia arrived at the hospital, Tarquin was waiting at the entrance.
Seeing Elysia's ashen face, Tarquin's heart ached, "Elysia!"
He rushed to her side, but Elysia only gave him a bewildered look before staggering toward the emergency room. Tarquin's heart tightened at that look...
He sensed something was off, his mind racing with worry but not daring to dwell on it. He quickly followed with Elijah. Blossom and Evan Emmett were waiting outside the emergency room, bursting into tears as they saw Elysia.
"Mommy, Elliot... he's... he's bleeding so much, sob..."
"I'm sorry, Mommy. I couldn't protect Elliot, sob..."
Elysia felt as if her heart was being torn apart. Just as she was about to speak, the emergency room doors swung open.
A nurse rushed out, "The patient urgently needs a blood transfusion, but he has a rare Rh-negative type. We don't have enough in our supply, and it might be too late to get more from another hospital. Does anyone here have Rh-negative blood? We can do an on-site draw."
Too late?!
Elysia lost control and ran toward the emergency room, but the nurse stopped her,
"Ma'am, please calm down. You can't go in there."
Elysia pleaded through tears, "It's my son who's hurt. I know medical procedures. Please, let me see him... Please let me in..."
Benjamin emerged upon hearing the commotion,
"Ms. Thorne, don't panic. Elliot's injuries aren't fatal. The only thing we're short on is blood. As long as we have enough, I guarantee Elliot will be safe! Please stay calm; we've got this."
Benjamin then turned to Tarquin,
"Tarquin, you're Rh-negative! Elliot's blood type matches yours. Hurry to the blood draw room!"
Tarquin suddenly remembered his blood type and reassured Elysia,
"Right! Elliot and I have the same blood type. Don't worry, blood is the solution!"
As he turned to leave, Elysia, struck by a sudden thought, glared at him,
"Stop right there!"
