Chapter 526: Chapter 526: She Woke Up, Everyone Gathers at the Hospital
The heart felt like it was hit hard.
Silas Hawthorne couldn’t believe his eyes at that moment.
He dared not breathe, afraid that everything was just a hallucination.
"Serena?" His voice was soft, trembling incessantly.
Afraid that any slight movement would shatter everything.
He was scared that he was just overly saddened, weaving a dream for himself.
But even if it was a dream, he didn’t want to break it.
"Beep beep beep, beep beep beep..."
The machines were still screaming continuously.
Silas Hawthorne’s hand trembled, not daring to touch her.
Serena Sterling looked at him, she opened her mouth, trying to say something, but it seemed very difficult.
Tears slowly flowed from the corner of her eye, she tried multiple times, and finally uttered a hoarse, weak, intermittent sound.
She said - "Silas... Silas..."
It was the affectionate name she gave him.
She was calling him!
"Serena..." His voice trembled, pressing the bell while gently wiping away the tears from the corner of her eye.
The feeling of tears!
Silas Hawthorne pinched himself hard, it hurt.
It’s real...
It’s real!
Serena woke up!
"Serena!" Silas Hawthorne was so excited that he could hardly breathe.
His heart was beating intensely, more excited than ever in his life.
"Serena, you finally woke up!" Tears flowed continuously.
She was still looking at him, tears silently falling.
She seemed to want to say something, but perhaps because of sleeping for too long, she only opened her mouth, unable to make a sound.
Finally, one of her hands slowly lifted.
The sunlight shone down, hitting the wedding ring on her hand, reflecting countless rays of light in the room.
Silas Hawthorne instantly grasped her hand, intertwining their fingers tightly.
"Don’t... cry..." She took a long time, finally saying these two words.
But his tears couldn’t stop flowing, not at all.
"Not sad." He said, reaching out to wipe her tears, "It’s joy."
"Serena, I am so happy..."
Really exceptionally happy!
After a while, medical personnel came rushing in.
And at the doorway, Julian Lawson was watching everything from afar.
Seeing her eyes open, seeing her hand slowly lift.
His heart beat violently once more.
She woke up!
Did she really wake up!
This isn’t his hallucination, right!
Julian Lawson felt something dripping, he reached out and touched, it was wet, his tears.
Medical personnel arrived at the bedside.
"What happened?" she asked.
"She’s awake." Silas Hawthorne immediately replied.
The person immediately took a walkie-talkie and notified other personnel.
In just an instant, countless medical personnel surged forth, filling the entire ward.
Everyone was very tense.
The once quiet corridor was now bustling with medical personnel coming and going.
People were entering and exiting, constantly saying something.
This place became lively.
Bianca Lynch heard the news and hurried over.
Ethan Lynch recently returned to the country, and he was here too now.
Bianca Lynch was making phone calls to others.
"...Yes, just got the news, saying Serena woke up."
"Yes, they are doing a check-up inside right now, Silas is inside, still don’t know the situation, might have to wait a bit longer."
"Don’t rush, come slowly, ensure safety, the check-up might take some time."
...
"Yes, she woke up, Serena woke up!"
Bianca Lynch continually walked back and forth, Ethan Lynch did too.
Julian Lawson sat there, at a loss.
Finally, the eyes of the two men met, then Ethan Lynch’s gaze fell on Julian Lawson’s leg.
Many things happened in the past, but with these recent happenings, and with the passing of this year, and Julian Lawson’s injured leg, many things gradually faded.
"Did you just see?" Ethan Lynch asked, thinking.
Julian Lawson nodded, eyes red, said: "I saw it."
He slightly stabilized his emotions and said: "I saw Serena opened her eyes, and lifted her hand."
Ethan Lynch’s eyes turned red too.
Hope it’s true.
Hope Serena really wakes up, and everything gets better afterward!
Those who arrived first walked back and forth here.
Before long, others came one after another.
The first was Sheila Jenkins, then it was Jasper Ford and them.
Clara Huxley came a bit later because she went to the school first to pick up Seraphina upon hearing the news.
Finally, everyone gathered here, because Silas Hawthorne was inside, so everyone looked at Julian Lawson.
Julian Lawson repeated the words he said before once more.
"Yes, I saw her wake up." Julian Lawson nodded and said.
Sheila Jenkins, Clara Huxley hugged Seraphina, the three all had red eyes.
Seraphina was even more anxious to meet Serena.
It’s just that they were still checking inside, so everyone could only wait.
Finally, the doctor came out.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?" Sheila Jenkins immediately asked.
"Just woke up, only did some basic examinations, we need to do further checks afterward, specifics will be known by then." The doctor said, and nodded towards Ethan Lynch and Bianca Lynch.
After the doctor left, everyone immediately went into the ward.
Silas Hawthorne was still holding Serena Sterling’s hand.
Sunshine shone down, illuminating her, she looked pale yet beautiful.
"Serena!"
"Serena!"
"Mom!"
"Serena we came to see you!"
"Woo woo, Serena you finally woke up..."
Everyone looked towards Serena Sterling on the sickbed.
Serena Sterling barely smiled at them, opened her mouth wanting to say something, but in the next instant, lost consciousness again.
"Serena!" Everyone immediately panicked.
"What happened?"
"Mom!"
"What’s wrong with Serena!"
The bell was pressed once more.
The doctor came to look, only said it’s normal, the patient is weak upon first waking, can only hold on for a while.
During the doctor’s check earlier, Serena was already struggling to hold on.
But she knew, many people wanted to see her, to confirm she was awake.
She kept holding on, until seeing many people, finally feeling relieved.
Thus fell into sleep once more.
In the ward, the doctor explained: "She was in a coma for too long, now even if she’s awake, she’ll still need rehabilitation, needs some time to slowly recover."
"Moreover, we need to do a more detailed check now, to see if there are other issues."
Many patients in prolonged comas experience temporary confusion or other issues, even physical problems from lying too long, all need detailed checks.
"However, waking up is always a good thing." The doctor said.
Everyone was still worried and anxious, but for now, could only wait.
Though, like what the doctor said, waking up is a good thing.
It’s better than continuing to sleep.
Silas Hawthorne watched Serena Sterling close her eyes again, he reached out, gently wiped away the remaining tear stains at her eye corner, tightly grasping her hand.
Must be well.
