Chapter 61 - Mystery Package

Alex had just arrived that morning from his business travel and had to instantly went to have that emergency conference.

As he arrived in the hospital, Josie was waiting for him.

"What happened?!" Alex instantly demand an explanation.

"Sir, I honestly don't know. We were at the office when I brought in her lunch, I came in and she was already unconscious. I instantly called the ambulance." Josie sighed as she recalled the scene.

"Boss was on the ground with her pills scattered in the floor. The doctor already took an X-ray and they have seen that she had swallowed quite a bunch. They are now on the Operating room, to suck out all those pills out." Since April was a VIP patient, they couldn't take the chance of risking her life.

Her medicines were strong. It had some anti depressants and mixed with other kinds of effects. To help her calm her anxieties and to calm her nerves. Taking those medicine could be considered us addicting.

"Did anything else happen? Did she talk to anyone?!" Alex looked at the operation room, praying that she'd be okay.

"I have her phone, I already checked on it and the last one she called was her mother." Josie handed April's phone to Alex. Alex took it and turned the phone on.

Alex felt a tugged in his heart when he saw the wallpaper. It was April, Him and Sky. Happily smiling at the camera, they looked like a happy family.

As what Josie had said, the last call before him was her mother. All of her texts too was her family, josie and him.

He didn't dare think that she wanted to take her life. There has to be something going on.

"Go and go back to her office. See if you can find anything that might've caused this! Call me immediately if something comes up, I'll stay here with her. If you need help, call James." Alex sat down next to the Door and waited. Silently praying for her health. He can't believe that he had let it happened again. He cursed himself for being so useless!

"Yes sir! I'll take my leave." Josie bowed and left.

Alex rubbed his palm to his face. He kept trying to think if he did something wrong. His wife had been quiet now and haven't been doing anything. Though he didn't sent someone to spy on her, she was too obedient on to the proceedings of their divorce. It was suspicious and yet he had given her the benefit of the doubt. Due to their given history.

Not long after, The doctor came out along with other medical staff. Alex instantly stood up and asked.

"How is she?!" His face was full of worry.

"She is still unconscious at the moment. We had already removed all the pills in her stomach, unfortunately some were already digested or starting to digest. Since we aren't exactly sure how many she did intake. We are keeping her monitored for now, Mr. Hawthorne. You may visit her in the VIP Room in just a minute." The doctor was the same for that took care of April before.

Alex nodded to him, the doctor nodded back and left. A little after, April came out with nurses. She was being pushed towards her room.

Alex walked beside her and held her hand. The nurses had only let him since they knew that this man was the lover of the VIP Patient. They had seen this guy before, when April was in the hospital.

April looked paler again, her lips was almost blue. Alex's heart felt guilty. He promised to protect her, but how could he protect her from herself?

No. no. She isn't that type of girl. She wouldn't kill herself. Not when she have Sky and Me. She wouldn't abandoned us. He kept thinking like this, as they walked through the hallway. When they reach the room, Alex let her hand go and volunteered to lift her into the bed. Not letting the male nurse do it. Only theb he allowed them to check her IV drips, her heart beat monitor, breathing apparatus and etc.

Apparently, April is having a hard time breathing. This made it difficult for him to look at April. It was worst than the last.
