Chapter 38 Aletta Passed Out!
Aletta’s eyes widened as she saw how close Jason was, and her immediate response was to push him away. But the man didn’t budge an inch, and she was the one getting pushed instead. Once she stabilized herself, her mind was overflowed with everything that just happened. For a short time, she froze in place while staring at Jason with a complicated look. She never imagined that she would be easily comforted by Jason at the worst time!
Holding back her embarrassment, she tried her best to use a flat tone and replied, “I… I’m fine, thank you for your help just now. If you’ll excuse me, I would like to go home first.” After that, she immediately walked away. But after only taking a few steps, Aletta’s felt an overwhelming sense of dizziness, and in the next moment, her body staggered forward. She passed out!
With quick reflex, Jason immediately picked her up by her waist, and then shouted to Eaton, “Eaton, go prepare the car!” Hearing his master’s serious tone, Eaton didn’t ask any more questions and hurried to do it. Meanwhile, Jason’s eyes were locked on Aletta as he walked through the crowd, leaving the restaurant.
Gail stood on the spot as she watched Jason walking away from her. Her heart was pounding, and she felt cold all over her body. Jason hugged that woman and left just like that! He didn’t even mind to take a look at her before leaving!
Gail couldn’t hold herself back anymore, and her eyes burned with fire of jealousy. “Why, Jason? Why does it have to be like this? Why can’t you see the good in me? That bitch Aletta has only been back for a few days, and you tossed me away like garbage?” She looked at the direction Jason was leaving with rage.
Jason walked out of the restaurant with Aletta in his arms, and Eaton had parked the car right in front of the entrance. After the two got into the car, they went straight to the
hospital. While they were on their way, the doctors in the hospital had already been notified and stood by the front of the emergency room.
Soon, Aletta was sent in for examination, and half an hour later, the doctor came out and delivered the report to Jason in a respectful manner, “The young lady physical condition. is stable, but her mental state is otherwise. There must be some sort of stressor that affects her mental state. If you don’t mind, would you please tell me what happened before you came here?”
Jason already had something in mind. He guessed that Aletta should be in a similar situation to claustrophobia, so he immediately replied, “Before we came here, she was trapped inside an elevator. That was when she began to act erratically.”
The doctor nodded and replied, “Well it seems that her stress was triggered due to being in a dark environment. Very well, then! Once she wakes up, I can assure you that she will be fine!”
Hearing the doctor’s explanation, Jason became even more restless. His brows frowned tightly, and he tried his best to recall the brief marriage between him and Aletta in the past few years. At that time, he occasionally went back in the middle of the night and saw her asleep without turning on the light. But when he saw her current condition, it was as if she was afraid of the dark. How did it become like this? Could something traumatic happened after they divorced?
Jason’s mind was in chaos, but he tried to compose himself before replying, “Understood, thank you for your service, Doctor.”
The doctor nodded and immediately left. After that, Jason went to the ward to check on Aletta. At the moment, she was still unconscious. But even in her unconscious state, her pale face couldn’t hide her beauty.
Jason stared at Aletta for a while, and then he said to Eaton in a low voice, “I want you to find out who Aletta has met in the past few days.” Currently, his mind was still thinking of what Aletta said in the
elevator.
Eaton was stunned at his master’s request, but he immediately nodded and said, “Right away, sir.”
Before Eaton left, Jason suddenly added, “Also, I want you to look at her history when she was abroad. I want detailed background check on her!”
At the same time in Hill Villa, before Otto had time to implement the ‘matchmaking’ plan, he saw his mom fainting through his monitor. He was so worried that he immediately turned on his phone to track his dad’s whereabouts. The red dot on his screen appeared to be in a hospital, meaning that his dad was in the location as his mom.
Otto immediately made a decision, dragged Nina downstairs, and looked for the family’s driver, “I need you to take us to the hospital.”
Feeling concerned at the young man’s request, the driver asked, “Pardon me, sir, but why do you need to go to the hospital, especially at this hour? Is something happening? Do you feel unwell?”
Otto already made an alibi in his mind, so he responded calmly, “No, we’re both. We want to go there to see Dad! He is in the hospital right now, so he must have gone to visit Great Grandpa! Nina and I are bored at home, so we want to go there and see Great Grandpa!”
When the driver heard Otto’s explanation, he immediately understood. It was better if he took those siblings to the hospital himself. If not, he feared that those two might go on their own.
Soon, the driver drove the two children to the hospital. On their way, Otto received a message from Lyla:
[Otto, are you and sister free right now? I want to play games with Lucas, do you want to join? It’s going to be fun! Don’t just bury yourself in books all day, you’ll only become a nerd!]
When Otto saw the message, he immediately remembered his mom’s condition, and he thought of letting his other siblings know as well. Because of that, he immediately replied:
[No, Nina and I are going to go to the hospital. Mom passed out, but fortunately, dad was there and already taken her to the hospital. We were very worried. Do you want to come here?]
At the Spring Villa, Lyla and Lucas, were waiting for Otto’s reply. But when they saw the reply, the two was shocked, even Lyla’s face turned pale. Lucas immediately took the phone and called Otto, “Otto, what’s going on? Is it true that mom passed out?”
Otto glanced at the driver in the driver’s seat, lowered his voice, and responded, “It’s true! But this is not the time to tell you the details, I’ll tell you when I get to the hospital. Are you coming as well?”
“Of course!” Lucas responded hastily. If it had something to do with his mom’s safety, he couldn’t stay idle. But the young man stayed compose and told Otto, “When you and Nina arrive, don’t go to the ward right away. Let’s find a place to meet up first.”
Otto immediately responded, “Okay.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After the two hung up, Lucas got off the sofa and went to look for Daisy, “Grandma, can you take us to the hospital? Mom hasn’t come back yet, and I’m worried if something happens to her. She always gets so busy that she forgot to take care of herself.”
“I want to go too! I don’t want our mom to work too hard!” Lyla added from behind him.
When Daisy heard the child’s request, she didn’t mind at all. After getting along with Aletta for the past few days, she already knew about Aletta’s situation. It was indeed a hard responsibility to manage the company’s business during the day and went to the hospital at night.
After seeing Aletta’s children being sensible, Daisy had no reason but to take them to the hospital. The three immediately packed up, and soon set off to the hospital. As they arrived, Lucas and Lyla walked out of the car and told Daisy, “Grandma, you can go home first. We can go home with mom later.” At first, Daisy was worried, but the two children immediately ran away before she could respond.
