Chapter 224
Page had been in a coma for four days, but she finally woke up on the fifth day.
After the doctors examined her and confirmed that she was out of danger, they transferred her to a general ward
Conrad received a call from Anne and rushed to the hospital
In the ward, Page was asleep, with Anne keeping watch beside her. Hearing the door open, she saw Conrad come in. She quickly stood up to greet him and whispered, “She just fell asleep after having some meal. She’ll probably sleep for a while. Mr. Adams, have you had lunch yet?”
“Not yel
“Shall I go to the canteen and get you some food?”
Anne had been staying h
here for the past few days, having all three meals a day at the hospital canteen
The food here wasn’t very exquisite, but it’s low in oil and salt, making it very suitable for patients. The slightly more expensive stir–fries were similar to those in restaurants. She knew that Conrad wasn’t picky about food and enjoyed home–cooked meals.
Conrad responded with a faint “him“After Anne left and closed the door, he pulled up a chair by the hospital bed and sat down.
Page was in a daze when she saw a figure in front of the bed. She moved her mouth and called
out his name “Lucas.
Conrad sat quietly and did not respond
Page stretched out her hand. Lucas, you finally came to see me. I miss you so much. I think about you every day.”
Seeing that her son still ignored her, Page’s tears began to fall. She choked out. “Are you still mad at me! I didn’t know it was you back then. I mistook someone else for you. The person I wanted to save that day was you. Can you forgive me!”
Conrad pursed his thin lips into a straight line.
“Lucas, why don’t you say something to me! I want to hear your voice…”
“I’m Conrad.”
A low and indifferent voice sounded in the ward.
The fog in Page’s eyes cleared, and after focusing for a while, she realized that the person in front of her was her adopted son. A sudden sense of helplessness and even guilt overwhelmed her. She opened her mouth, “Virgil….
Conrad poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her..
Page’s throat was dry and hoarse. She sat up and took the glass, drinking a few sips.
Looking at the child in front of her, she remembered that Anne had told her earlier that Virgil had been coming to the hospital every day to see her these past few days. She knew how busy her son’s work was, and she also knew how much money Virgil had spent on her over the years.
She knew that Virgil was a good child
However, the more filial her adopted son was, the more Page thought of her biological son. Especially after knowing that she had a cerebral infarction and wouldn’t live long, she wanted to see her child even more.
She could not help but plead, “Virgil, can you call Lucas?”
She explained, “I don’t mean anything else. I just want to see him and see if he’s doing well.”
“I called him. He said he was out of the country?”
With just one sentence, Page knew that Lucas still did not want to see her. Her eyes turned red, but she did not say anything else. She wiped her tears with her hand. After a while, she squeezed out a smile. “It’s fine if he’s not in the country. Let’s talk about it another time.”
Conrad did not say anything else.
The hospital room fell silent Recalling how she had just mistaken Virgil for Lucas, Page felt a bit uneasy and asked, “How are things between you
nd Moura!”
Conrad Murton parsed his thin lips tightly and did not say anything.
they had a conflict. “Did you guys break up?”

was silent for a moment before replying, “She wants to break up, but I didn’t agree.”
