Rebirth of the Wife in Despair

Chapter 61 Are You Scared Now

The bumpy journey reopened Eileen’s abdominal wound, causing her immense pain.

“Ouch, it hurts!” she exclaimed.

Despite the pain, she fought to stay conscious and refused to collapse.

As her vision blurred and she felt herself slipping into a daze, she clenched her teeth and remained silent.

She didn’t want to burden him any further.

Suddenly, Eileen leaned forward, catching Eric’s attention. He opened his eyes and quickly reached out to support her.

As soon as he touched her, he felt a burning sensation emanating from her body, prompting him to pull her into his arms.

Eric furrowed his brow and asked, “How much longer until we reach the hospital?”

“The road repairs are causing some congestion. It’s going to take at least an hour,” Vera replied, startled.

Eric uncovered Eileen, revealing her blood-soaked clothing underneath. “Why didn’t she say anything?” he wondered.

“Stop the car by the road, Gavin, and get the first aid kit, Eric instructed.

Gavin pulled over and swiftly retrieved the first aid kit from the trunk.

Inside, it was stocked with commonly used medicines.

Eric began to undress Eileen, carefully removing the bandage from her abdomen and discarding it.

He then worked to stem the bleeding.

By the time he finished dressing the wound, Eileen had already lost consciousness.

“At this rate, she’ll lose too much blood and go into shock,” Eric thought to himself.

Vera watched the scene unfold through the rearview mirror, gripping the hem of her skirt. tightly. Her head was lowered, and her eyes were filled with indescribable emotions.

After the roadblock was cleared, they arrived at Serene Hospital in less than thirty minutes.
