Chapter 572: Chapter 572 Amputation

Yvette took the phone and saw that it was Joseph’s number, so she picked it up.

"Hello, Joseph."

Before she could finish, she heard him say anxiously, "Yvette, where are you? Lance..."

Joseph was a little incoherent.

Yvette was surprised when she heard Lance’s name.

Lance had not returned to New York yet?

She comforted Joseph. "Don’t worry. Speak slowly. What happened to Lance?"

"Lance fainted in the hotel. I called an ambulance. They said it would take twenty minutes to arrive. I was a little scared."

Yvette was shocked.

How could Lance faint?

"Which hotel are you in?" Yvette asked.

Joseph said, "Consuela Hotel."

Consuela Hotel...

Yvette recalled that it seemed to be a few miles away from the manor.

Last time, she was surprised that there was a seven-star hotel there.

"That’s very close to me." Yvette got up and instructed, "Do as I say. Give him first aid. I will go with Stephen now."

Yvette hurriedly put on a coat and guided Joseph. Then she went to the first floor to find Stephen.

When she got downstairs, she had just hung up the phone.

When she was about to knock on the door, his legs were a little weak.

Fortunately, Stephen had already heard the sound and opened the door before she knocked on it.

As he saw Yvette’s appearance, his calm and elegant face changed. "Yvette, what’s wrong?"

"Lance ... Lance fainted. Stephen, can you call a doctor to save him?"

Yvette’s breathing was uneven, and she finally finished her words with great difficulty.

Seeing this, Stephen patted her back. "Don’t worry. I’ll arrange it now."

Stephen took out his phone and made a phone call, saying a bunch of Icelandic words.

"Rest assured. I’ve found the best doctor in Iceland," he told Yvette.

They hurried out and arrived at Consuela Hotel in five minutes.

Coincidentally, the doctor that Stephen had found had arrived at the same time.

After they arrived upstairs, the suite door was open.

Yvette went in and saw Lance lying on the bed with a pale, handsome face.

"Yvette, you’re here." Joseph greeted her with red eyes.

"How could he..." Yvette was full of questions and didn’t know which sentence to start with.

Fortunately, Joseph told them everything he knew. "When I came back, there was a smell of alcohol in the room. Lance seemed to have drunk some wine. So he fell in the bathroom and fainted."

Yvette looked at Lance’s face and felt anxious.

Logically speaking, as a grown man, Lance would not have fainted after falling.

It must have been because his illness had yet to recover.

It was clear that his days of recuperation were not enough.

Lance...

The doctor checked Lance. Then, he helped Lance take some special medicine.

It was amazing that after a while, Lance’s face was no longer as pale as before.

At this time, the ambulance arrived.

The doctor came over and said to Stephen, "I just made a simple diagnosis. The device in his knees has been infected. He has to be examined for details in the hospital."

device infection...

Yvette felt it was unbelievable, and her body swayed.

Fortunately, Stephen held her from behind her.

The ambulance crew carried Lance onto a stretcher and went to the hospital.

Yvette composed herself and looked at Stephen, saying, "Stephen, I..."

Without needing her to say more, Stephen said, "Let’s go together."

Yvette nodded vigorously.

When they arrived at the hospital, Yvette sat in the long corridor outside, waiting for Lance to finish the examination.

She thought that Lance had left after the wedding day.

Unexpectedly, he had been staying in Iceland for more than a week and even lived in Consuela Hotel, which was so close to the Parker’s home.

What was he doing here?

Yvette should have understood, but she was not very willing to think about it.

It seemed that the curse was playing its role again.

If not for Joseph, Lance would have fainted in the hotel with no one knowing it. How terrible it would have been!

Stephen felt worried when he saw Yvette’s uneasy look.

He said gently, "Yvette, I told Mr. Wolseley that I could send him off safely that day, but he was unwilling to leave."

"He..." Yvette did not know what to say. In short, her mind was a mess.

Stephen waited for a while. Seeing that Yvette did not speak, he continued, "There was one more thing. When we went to the park today, I saw a black SUV following us all the time. Later, I asked someone to check it out. Mr. Wolseley was sitting inside. I guess he might have misunderstood something, so he drank wine to drown his sorrows."

Stephen had always been upright. He felt that Lance must have done this because of Yvette, so Yvette, the person involved, had the right to know.

Yvette was stunned. It turned out that Lance was sitting in the black SUV today.

No wonder when she saw the SUV, she felt that it was strange.

Stephen saw that Yvette did not speak, so he asked, "Yvette, how do you want to deal with Mr. Wolseley’s matter?"

When he asked this question, Stephen was actually a little apprehensive in his heart.

He could tell that Yvette had feelings for Lance.

When they were in New York, it was obvious.

No matter how many times they had broken up, it was clear that their feelings for each other had never faded.

This time, Stephen heard that Lance had hurt Yvette because he had used the wrong method to help Yvette get rid of future trouble.

That was why Yvette did not want to return to him when she was pregnant.

In fact, Marlon, rather than Stephen, should be the one asking how to deal with this matter.

But because Stephen was a little emotional today, he wanted to know how Yvette wanted to deal with it.

No matter what, he would respect Yvette’s decision.

Even if she still loved Lance and wanted to return to him...

Stephen would hide his thoughts and bless them.

Under Stephen’s intense gaze, Yvette said in a low voice, "I don’t know now, but I want to wait until he wakes up."

Stephen didn’t say anything more. He said gently, "Okay, don’t worry. The doctors here are very professional."

After the examination, there was a needle inserted into Lance’s wrist. He was having an IV.

The doctor’s original words were that because Lance was not paying attention, the device in his knees had long been dislocated.

After dislocation, his knees became inflamed. According to the doctor, it was very painful.

Ordinary people would definitely find it difficult to bear. They did not know how Lance could stay here for so many days without seeing a doctor when his knees were inflamed.

The best treatment method was to change the device in his knees and let him not use his legs for two months. After he recovered, the device would be changed.

This also meant that Lance had to lie in bed obediently for two months.

Yvette thought that Marvin understood medical matters. So she ignored that it was late at night and called him.

When Marvin heard this news, he was very shocked and repeated "this madman" several times.

Marvin knew that this crazy man had gone to attend the wedding, but Marvin did not know that Lance had not come back with Frankie. Instead, Lance stayed in Iceland and asked Frankie to come back alone.

Iceland was located in a cold zone, and the climate was icy and damp, which was not good for healing.

Lance stayed there, which would undoubtedly make his illness even more serious.

Now his knees were inflamed. He could have surgery in Iceland, but what about the recuperation after the surgery?

The cold and damp Iceland was obviously not good for recuperation.

Then, Marvin suggested that Lance should return to New York for surgery.

There was a better environment in which Lance could recover quickly.

Marvin added, "He knows that cold and damp are not good for his legs. He still hasn’t come back. I don’t think he wants to recover."

Yvette really didn’t know that it was so serious. Her face turned pale. "Professor Icahn, why is his illness still so serious?"

No matter what, he had been recuperating for almost two months. How could it not be cured? It was even more serious.

Marvin stammered, "Actually, it is not very serious."

Yvette did not believe it. From Lance’s face and the doctor in Iceland who shook his head when he saw Lance, she knew that Lance’s condition was not good.

"I want to know his real condition. Can you tell me the truth?"

She pursed her lips and added, "Anyway, I can find out if I want to, but I want to hear the most objective opinion from you."

Marvin sighed and said, "Yvette, let me tell you the truth. He hasn’t had a good rest for the past two months. He recovered even more slowly than those who only rested for a week. His insomnia was very serious. He couldn’t sleep all night. He only slept for three or four hours a day, and he worked for the rest of the time. Think about it. How could he recover well?"

"His tendons have not recovered enough."

There were a lot of professional terms that Yvette could not understand.

In short, if Lance was not willing to go back to New York for surgery and insisted on staying in Iceland, the consequences would not be good.

As for how bad Lance’s condition would be, Marvin did not explain it clearly.

Marvin said a lot of professional terms, but when it came to the key questions, he became vague.

"What do you mean exactly?"

"How bad will it be?" asked Yvette stubbornly.

Marvin coughed and said in a low voice, "Some people underwent amputation surgery in this situation."

Yvette froze and did not say a word for a full minute.

For a moment, she felt that Marvin was too exaggerated. How could Lance have reached the point of amputation?

It was hard for her to imagine what would happen if this outstanding man had his limbs amputated.

Just thinking about it made her feel that the blow would be devastating.

Although she could not believe it in her heart, Lance’s exceptionally pale face made Marvin’s words more convincing.

At that time, he had been unconscious in the hospital for many days. If he did not rest well in the future, he might need an amputation.

Yvette clenched her fists and said softly, "Professor Icahn, I will persuade him to go back."

Marvin sighed, "It should be quite difficult. You guys are really..."

He sighed and could not say anything else.

The relationships between men and women were really elusive.

No one was wrong. They could only blame fate for playing tricks on them.

After hanging up the phone, Yvette stood still and remained silent for a long time. She did not speak.

Stephen looked at Yvette’s pale face and the shadows of her eyelashes. She looked even more melancholy.

He could not bear to watch anymore and forced her to go to rest.

"Yvette, listen to me. The babies in your belly also need to rest."

"Stephen," Yvette suddenly said.

"I have to let him go back for treatment." She raised her head and looked at Stephen as if she had made a decision. She said softly, "You have to help me."

When Stephen heard this, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

He knew what Yvette was thinking.

In fact, before Stephen said that Lance had been following them in the afternoon, Stephen had thought for a long time.

For a moment, Stephen did not want to tell Yvette about this.

He found that he was not so generous. He was unwilling to give up the person he liked.

Stephen just thought that if Yvette chose Lance, he would bless them. He was cheating himself.

Stephen said in a hoarse voice, "Yvette, it’s up to you. I will cooperate with you."

...

The next day.

Lance finally woke up.

When he opened his eyes and saw the woman sitting by the bed, he thought that he was dreaming.

He didn’t even dare to stretch out his hand, afraid that if he did so, the dream would end.

Yvette had just arrived.

She went to sleep last night, but she didn’t sleep well.

She had nightmares and even dreamed of the scene of Lance dying.

She had been distracted for the entire night.

This caused her eyes to be very swollen in the morning.

She had put a hot towel on her eyes for a long time before they looked slightly better.

Seeing that Lance had woken up and was staring at her, Yvette spoke softly.

"You’re awake. I’ll get the caregiver to help you wash up."

After saying this, she was about to call the caregiver in, but she was grabbed by Lance.

"Isn’t it a dream?"

When these words came out of the mouth of this powerful man, it was more or less heartbreaking.

He seemed to be asking very humbly.

Her warm skin in his palm made him know that he was really not dreaming.

These days, he could not sleep well every night. When he woke up, he seemed to be in a dream, but when he was asleep, he seemed to be awake.

He didn’t want to be clear-headed because he couldn’t accept the fact that...

He did not believe that Yvette was really married. He always felt that it was not true. He asked many people about it, but he could not find anything suspicious.

No matter how much he did not want to admit it, it seemed to be the truth.

"Yvette," he called her softly.

Yvette turned back and said, "I’m not leaving. Go wash up first and eat something."

It was rare for Lance to obediently let go of her. He let the caregiver help him wash up and even ate some breakfast.

After he finished eating, Yvette sat back down by the bed.

Only then did Lance see clearly the black coat she was wearing. It was very big and did not fit her. It was loose, not looking like her clothes at all.
