When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 909

Chapter 909 The Surgery
Unfortunately this time, Nathaniel was unable to respond to her.

Cecilia tightened her grip on his hand even more.

Mason looked at Cecilia, who was covered in blood, and couldn't help but worry. “Mrs. Rainsworth, are you hurt anywhere? Should we call a doctor?”

Cecilia gently shook her head. “I'm okay. He's the only one who got hurt.”

At that point, Mason chose not to say anything further.

After much effort, the doctor was finally able to stop Nathaniel's bleeding.

He then said, “We must go to the hospital to stitch up the wound. His artery has been damaged, and my attempt to stop the bleeding is only temporary.”

“All right, understood.” Mason nodded.

Nathaniel's right side of his head bore a long knife wound, almost extending to his face.

Mason felt a pang of regret. He and Sven should have been more cautious earlier so that Nathaniel wouldn't have to suffer.

Regrettably, there were no what-ifs.

Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Zachary personally performed the surgery while Jessica was taken to a separate operating room.

Cecilia sat outside on the porch, staring at the fresh blood on her hands. Her hands began to tremble involuntarily.

Sven walked over, unsure of how to comfort her. In the end, he just stood there by her side.

The surgery went on for an indeterminate amount of time. Even though they were brought in during the day, by the time the operating room lights were switched off, it was already dark outside.

Upon returning home, Elliot found no sign of Cecilia and Nathaniel. Consequently, he made a call.

Cecilia forced herself to lie, claiming that she and Nathaniel were tied up with some matters outside and would not be returning home for the night.

After soothing her son, Nathaniel was finally pushed out from the operating room.

Cecilia immediately stood up.

Zachary removed his mask, his expression somber as he walked toward Cecilia.

“How did it go?” Cecilia asked anxiously.

“His life should no longer be in danger. He will likely wake up tomorrow,” Zachary responded.
