The Lawyer’s Romance in Law

Chapter 198 We Did Our Best

Faced with such strong reactions from the two individuals, Oscar could only choose to remain silent, although he truly doubted the truth behind Howard falling down the stairs.

Amanda and Elias exchanged a glance.

Her eyes were filled with panic as she feared that she would be misunderstood by Elias, but it was indeed difficult to explain clearly.

Elias’ gaze was somewhat complicated. He seemed to have suspicions but also felt that he should firmly believe in her and stand by her side.

Suddenly, the signboard light outside the operating room went out, and the door opened. A doctor came out while taking off his mask.

The doctor’s expressionless face made them unable to guess the situation inside.

Elias stepped forward and asked, “How is it?”

The doctor glanced at the three people present and shook his head helplessly, saying, “I’m sorry. We tried our best. When he was brought in, he was already suffering from severe intracranial hemorrhage and asphyxiation. It was too late.”

Elias’ pitch-black pupils suddenly contracted, and his tall figure froze in place.

Oscar was shocked on the side, while Amanda only heard a booming sound as if the whole world had collapsed.

Her legs went weak, and she approached the doctor. Her voice was trembling as she asked, “Doctor, what do you mean by that… What do you mean by ‘We tried our best’ and ‘It was too late? Can you explain to me what this means?”

Her mind was blank, and her fingertips were trembling.

The doctor knew that many family members couldn’t accept such an outcome, but there was no other way. Sometimes, life was just so helpless.

The person was already accustomed to such scenes, so he patiently repeated, “What I mean is that Old Mr. Winters is already brain-dead, which can be declared dead in medical terms.”
