Unrepairable Love
Chapter 503
No wonder Alexander’s hand felt like a furnace when he visited her, and no wonder he was out cold. His wound kept getting infected. His health was way worse than Ivan’s. Ivan was in much better shape.
Thinking of Ivan, Elizabeth grabbed her phone. Just as she was about to check if Ivan had arrived, a message popped up from him.
He sent a photo with a message: [Made it safe; see you in a few days
Elizabeth replied: [Sorry, I couldn’t keep our promise.]
Ivan: [Family comes first. Hope Celine’s okay.]
Elizabeth: [Thanks.]
Ivan: [No problem.]
Elizabeth opened the photo; it was a stunning night view from abroad. It had a different vibe compared to home. She wondered if she’d ever get to visit there. At least, not anytime soon.
In the morning, a nurse woke Elizabeth up. “Ms. Percy, we’re drawing blood from your grandma.”
“Okay.” Elizabeth, still half–asleep, had spent the night by the bedside and felt stiff all over. She stretched and walked to the window
to look outside.
The hospital floor was high, and everything outside was a white blur. It was foggy, and nothing was visible.
Elizabeth decided to stretch her legs in the corridor. As soon as she stepped out, she saw some of Celine’s old friends. They rushed over and asked, “Elizabeth, how’s Celine?”
“She’s fine,” Elizabeth had to say.
They wanted to go into the ward to see her, but Elizabeth stopped them. “I’m really sorry, the doctor said my grandma needs peace and quiet, and she’s still unconscious. You can’t see her now, but I’ll let you know when you can, okay?” Elizabeth was very polite.
Hearing this, they couldn’t push their way in and just nodded.
Elizabeth knew that among these people, some genuinely cared about Celine, while others might not. So she decided not to let them in and not to share any details about Celine’s condition for now.
After sending off one group, another group showed up.
Elizabeth immediately called the nurse’s station. “Don’t give out my grandma’s room number to anyone!” she ordered.
The reason these people could find their way here was partly due to the media and partly due to someone inside the hospital.
Elizabeth stressed, “My grandma’s condition must be kept confidential. Anyone who leaks it will be kicked out of the hospital
Everyone exchanged glances and got the message.
Elizabeth went back to the ward, and the nurse had already finished drawing Celine’s blood.
Elizabeth looked at Celine on the bed, her brow furrowed. Before she could sit down, the door to the ward opened again.

Chapter 503
Elizabeth was about to tell them to be quiet and leave when she heard Grant asking, “Is she awake?”
Elizabeth turned around and saw Grant walking in, looking exhausted.
Grant had been up all night and came over early with some soup. He couldn’t wait to see Celine.
“She’s not awake yet, but
er condition is stable. Grandpa, don’t worry; she should wake up today,” Elizabeth said.
Grant nodded. “Go home and rest, you’ve worked hard,” he said to Elizabeth.
“Okay, I’ll come back tonight to relieve you, Grandpa, okay?” Elizabeth hadn’t had a good rest for two nights either. She was indeed tired.
“Okay.” Grant nodded.
Elizabeth quickly left. At the hospital entrance, she ran into Esme.
