Chapter 178 - She is in stable condition (1/2)

When Sarah was rolled back in the room, Stella, Edward, Sophia and Aiden all stood up looking at her lying face down on the bed with her back heavily bandaged. Few nurses were attaching Sarah to the monitors, when JoAnna walked in, followed by Dr. Light.

Dr. Light looked at them and nodded. ”Mr. Hill, Mrs. Hill.” He didn't greet others.

”How is she?”, Stella asked without responding to greeting.

Dr. Light frowned for a moment, he didn't like that they didn't greet him and showed respect that he deserves. But he swiftly changed his expression to one of indifference. ”I closed up two more ruptures in her blood vessels. She is back to stable condition.”

”Thank you”, Stella and Edward said in unison.

Sophia took her phone out and texted Felix that Sarah is back from the surgery, and currently in a stable condition.

Dr. Light didn't stay any more. He threw a glance at JoAnna and left the room. Stella noticed how he looked at JoAnna and felt that something is off... but this was not the time or place to talk about it. Stella thought that there are more and more things happening with her daughters that she is not aware. 'I need to spend more time with them or have some other way to keep an eye on them.' Sarah is in hospital, Sophia came with Felix again, and now JoAnna and Dr. Light. Each of her daughters has something going on that Stella is not in the know, and she does not like it.

Aiden was back next to the Sarah's bed, holding her hand. He spoke to Sarah in whispers as if he is chanting a spell to wake her up.

…

Back at the Orion Enterprise HQ, Felix received a message from Sophia: ”Sarah is back from surgery. She is in stable condition.”

Seeing this message Felix breathed sigh of relief. He packed small robot back into the box in which it was brought in and was thinking of taking a cab to go back to the hospital when he heard a male voice: ”Why are you here by yourself?”
