Faulkner Family, a group of people gathered in the room, their expressions anxious, the atmosphere heavy.
Eleanor Sterling and Alaric Faulkner arrived and immediately pushed through the crowd to get inside.
Seeing Estelle Sterling’s small body lying on the bed, Eleanor’s heart sank, her body stiffened, and her face instantly turned as white as paper.
Eleanor hurried forward and grabbed Estelle’s hand to check her pulse.
Her pulse was erratic, strong then weak, as if poisoned, and she looked to be in terrible condition.
Earlier, the family doctor had already conducted an examination. Now seeing Eleanor check Estelle’s pulse, he was slightly surprised.
He had earlier determined that the little one was vomiting blood for unknown reasons and was unconscious, with a high possibility of becoming a vegetative state.
At this time, Faye Sterling also arrived at the Faulkner Family by taxi.
Usually, she would face obstacles entering the Faulkner Family, but today was different; she got in smoothly and went upstairs.
Seeing Estelle lying there, her small face devoid of color, Faye couldn’t help but curl her lips.
How fortunate could she be if Eleanor’s son really died? If that were the case, it would indeed be satisfying.
The old Mrs. Faulkner had spent some time with Estelle, and she genuinely liked the child.
Now that something had happened to Estelle, she was deeply heartbroken.
She didn’t expect Eleanor to have any means to save him; the old Mrs. Faulkner looked at the family doctor and asked, "Is there really no way for this child?"
The family doctor showed a face full of regret and difficulty, "Madam, I’m very sorry, as I mentioned earlier, the young master’s condition is very complex."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Perhaps we need to conduct more precise examinations to determine what exactly is wrong."
From the back, Faye heard about the more precise examination and immediately showed a flustered expression.
Could the Faulkner Family find out from the examination that Estelle is their child?
No way! She must not let Estelle be sent for examination! Otherwise, the little progress she had made with Alaric would be over before it even started. Content originally comes from n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net
"No need for examinations!" she hurriedly spoke up.
Everyone turned to look, only to see Faye standing there, the voice had come from her.
The old Mrs. Faulkner frowned, a trace of displeasure flashing through her eyes, "What are you doing here?"
She never liked Caleb Faulkner’s mother, and it was she who ordered that Faye not be allowed into the Faulkner Family home.
So even though Faye came to Aethelgard, she dared not step into the Faulkner Family home. She thought of using her medical school graduation to impress this old lady.
"Old Mrs. Faulkner, I... I was just having dinner with Alaric and my sister, and when I heard about the accident with Little Star, I was worried, so I came to see."
Faye immediately put on an anxious expression.
The old Mrs. Faulkner pursed her lips and didn’t say anything more.
Eleanor glanced at her, her face devoid of any warmth, and she coldly said, "What does my son’s examination have to do with you?"
Faye realized she was too agitated, attracting everyone’s attention.
She steadied herself and then said, "I’m saying... it can’t be an ordinary examination; it must be done at a reputable place, or the chance for treatment might be missed."
The old Mrs. Faulkner, at this moment, didn’t have the time to argue too much with Eleanor; the most important thing was the child’s health.
She said, "I’ll immediately arrange for Little Star to go to the Aethelgard First Hospital."
Eleanor breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Brian Zane was the deputy director of the First Hospital, and her unseen senior brother, Zion Sheffield, also worked there, so she could rest assured about sending Estelle there.
