Chapter 716: Eunice Comes out of Her Coma

When Rex and Lily arrive at the hospital, it has passed eleven o'clock. Lily specially goes to her flower shop and gets a delicate bouquet to congratulate Eunice on awakening from the coma on her way to the hospital.

They go out of the elevator and walk towards the ward. As soon as they arrive, they see lots of people standing in front of the door, including doctors in white coats, nurses in blue coats and bodyguards in black suits. It is obvious that the bodyguards work for Ryan.

Rex manages to protect Lily and push their way through. Eunice, lying in bed, is surrounded by many people, among them Karl and her family stand immediately at the bedside. As for Ryan, he squats beside Eunice's bed.

As a man who is tall and muscular, he looks miserable and funny squatting down in grievance.

Seeing Rex and Lily, everyone present greets them. Rex nods slightly. He looks at Eunice, who is dressed in a white hospital gown lying on the bed, and asks Karl, "How is Eunice?"

"She is conscious now. Probably the coma has been too long. Now she is a little slow. But she is fine. As the test shows, she has no sign of amnesia." Karl keeps repeating to everyone who is here to visit Eunice, in an attempt to free them from worries.

"Eunice is fine. Don't worry. She just needs time to recover..."

All of a sudden, Eunice, who has been silent, turns to look at Lorraine, who is standing beside her. There comes a faint voice. Eunice speaks out, "Mom...."

Ever since Lorraine enters the ward, she has been paying close attention to Eunice. Although Eunice says in an extremely low voice, Lorraine hears her clearly.

Lorraine, who is in her fifties, becomes excited at it, "She calls me Mom! Eunice calls me Mom!"

Hearing this, Karl heaves a sigh of relief and becomes relaxed as well, "Auntie, what I said is true, right? All her memory will gradually come back to her."

Everyone in the ward looks excited, except for Eunice. With a pale face, she looks helpless.

The ward is crowded. When Eunice looks up at them and tries to figure out who they are, she feels a headache. As she is groggy now, it takes her a long time to react and identify them. She has worked hard to recognize her mom and speak out.

Just as she is distracted when looking around, she hears a familiar male voice, "Does your throat hurt? Do you want some water?"

Hearing him, Eunice turns round and sees a man who is attractive. Being different from those handsome men who are gentle and non-aggressive, he seems to be strong and powerful.

It is a face that Eunice will never forget in her life.

As she begins to regain consciousness slowly, many memories, good and bad, come to mind. The last thing occurs to her is what happened at that night.

She soon looks away to avoid his focused gaze. Then, she looks down and whispers, "No need."

Obviously, she struggles to communicate with him. According to the data on the instrument, one can also tell she is jarred by something. Her brain wave fluctuates dramatically.

Eunice has just woken up. Even if Karl feels embarrassed, he asks Ryan to leave the ward, ensuring Eunice won't get upset because of him.

Karl, in a white coat, looks totally different from Ryan, who is in a dark suit and just comes from the company. However, when they stand in the hallway together, they are in harmony with each other.

To not be disturbed, Karl leads Ryan into the smoking room at the end of the hallway.

Karl takes out a pack of unopened cigarettes from his pocket and hands it to Ryan, "Do you want to smoke?"

Ryan raises his eyebrows and looks at it. He finds it an imported brand, which he likes. He then takes a cigarette and lights it, "Thank you."

"Don't mention it. I don't smoke when I'm at work. I specially take it for you."

Ryan smiles in confusion, "Why? Have you ever thought that she will be emotional because of me?"

"No. But I'm sure she will suffer the most dramatic mood swing when she sees you. After all, you are the most special one to her, and she must have the deepest impression of you. It in fact is not bad. I ask you to leave as we'd better not let her be upset when she just awakens from her coma," Karl explains to Ryan frankly.

Ryan takes a puff and slowly exhales. White smoke thus rises. He asks, "How long will it take for her to recover?"

"In general, one week is enough. If Eunice recovers well, it will only take about four days. She was comatose for a long time. Although she is up now, her deep brain remains of being half sleep. She just needs to adjust."

Ryan listens to him quietly. Although he is in the smoking room talking with Karl, he is preoccupied with Eunice who is in bed. He wishes to be with her, but he can't. She will suffer from violent mood swing at the sight of him. It turns out that she is terrified of him.

Karl is able to tell that Ryan is upset now. He looks as sad as Rex when Rex lost Lily. Karl feels distressed and can't bear it anymore. He comforts Ryan, "Don't be too sad. If it is you, you will have the

same reaction as Eunice when you see her after awakening from your coma."

Ryan asks with a smile, whereas his eyes are full of sorrow, "Is that so? She must be scared of me. Because of me, she suffers a lot."

"Don't be filled with self-doubt. All of us know how much you love her. Otherwise, auntie wouldn't see you as a reliable man." Karl pats Ryan on the shoulder.

Since Ryan used to be Rex's love rival, as a good friend of Rex, Karl disliked him. However, it is different now. Karl feels distressed for Ryan seeing Ryan being trapped by affection.

Ryan is so good to Eunice. In fact, he doesn't seem to have the sort of disposition that will treat a woman well.

As a bystander, Karl might be able to see clearer how both Ryan and Eunice sacrifice themselves. Even if Eunice has suffered a lot to protect Ryan, Ryan devotes not less than her. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

But in the end, he is just an outsider. It's Ryan and Eunice who need to comprehend each other. No matter what others suggest, it's not very helpful.

Karl indeed hopes that Ryan will be able to cheer himself up and face up to his own feelings.

After staying in the smoking room for a while, Karl leaves. He also needs to check Eunice's body indexes.

It takes him and nurses about twenty minutes. To let Eunice have a good rest, Rex and Lily go to Karl's office. In the ward, there is only Eunice's family now.

Apart from Lorraine and Thomas, everyone has left the ward. Looking at them, Eunice feels much more relaxed and speaks out, "Mom."

"I'm here, my daughter. You're finally awake ... "Lorraine says as her eyes involuntarily shed tears. Thomas, who is standing beside her, begins to comfort her like an adult.

"Mom, it's good that big sister finally wakes up. Stop crying."
