The fire was too big, and the person who had the accident was the CEO of the Lucas group. Soon, it occupied the headlines at the fastest speed.
Not long after Bruce and Martin arrived at the hospital with the ambulance, they heard that the hospital was surrounded by reporters.
"Two patients need to be examined urgently. The others should wait outside."
After the doctors wheeled Lucas and Ashley into the emergency room, Bruce was still calm. He sat on the bench in the hospital's corridor and asked Martin to call the Lucas family.
"I've called them. Lucas's grandpa is on his way here."
As soon as he finished his words, the Lucas family rushed over in a hurry. Lucas's grandpa walked first, followed by Luke and several people.
"How's it going? Where's Lucas?" Lucas's grandpa asked anxiously.
Martin hurried to support him, fearing that Lucas's grandpa would pass out because of excitement.
"Don't worry. Mr. Lucas has been sent to the emergency room. The doctor is checking them up. The result will come out soon."
"It's that woman again, isn't it?"
Instead of answering his question, Lucas's grandpa shifted the topic to Ashley. Martin's eyes flashed. How could he answer? He took a deep breath and looked at Bruce for help.
After receiving the message, Bruce also came over. As a psychologist, he was good at controlling others' mentality. Several words could calm Lucas's grandpa down to wait for the result.
"Grandpa, the most important thing today is to find out the manipulator behind it. You will know when Lucas wakes up."
Lucas's grandpa was indeed working in the business for many years. He immediately understood what he meant.
In other words, he pretended to be aiming at Ashley, but in fact, he was going to deal with Lucas?
It was not impossible. He immediately stopped talking and sat on the chair with Bruce, waiting for the news from the doctor.
Standing next to Lucas's grandpa, Luke fixed his eyes on the emergency room. It was strange today. He didn't hear that Emma did something, so it must be someone else.
Ashley was also inside. He didn't know what was going on. He clenched his hand and whispered something in Lucas's grandpa's ear. Lucas's grandpa waved his hand and he walked out.
"Emma, come to the hospital right now."
"Do you mean about Lucas? I'm on my way to the hospital. Who did it this time?"
Emma understood before he could finish his words. Luke's eyes froze and he didn't reply to her until a while later.
"I don't know yet. I'm investigating."
"I don't care who it is. Now that someone has done it, he'd better let that woman die. Why did he mention Lucas?"
Hearing what she said, Emma spat. But what she said hit Luke's heart. He cared about Ashley a lot.
Clenching his phone tightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "If I know who did it secretly, I will let her pay the price!"
His words made Emma tremble. When Emma was about to say something, she heard the sound of a phone hanging up.
At the same time, the Johnson family members were also rushing to the hospital. Emma and the Johnson family met at the gate of the hospital.
She stared at Julia's back and walked in together.
It was raining outside, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, blurring the window. Lucas's grandpa was so anxious that his hands were trembling. Although he didn't allow Lucas to go back home because of Ashley, he was still his grandson anyway. Besides, how could he take his anger seriously?
"Grandpa!" Emma called him as soon as she came over.
"Here you are."
"Yes. How is Lucas?"
Before Emma could finish her words, the doctor opened the emergency room's door. The Lucas family members rushed over.
"Doctor, how is he?"
The doctor shook his head and said, "Both of them are not doing well. The female patient has been in the fire for too long, so she has inhaled too much smoke. Although she is not in danger, it is still uncertain when she will wake up."
"What about Lucas?" The Lucas family asked immediately.
"He inhaled less smoke than the woman, but his head was hit by something, and there are many burning marks on his body. He needs further treatment, and we can't tell you more."
He dreads to think about what will happen next. Lucas's grandpa almost fainted. Fortunately, Bruce helped him up quickly.
"Martin, take Lucas's grandpa to rest. I'm here."
"Okay." Martin agreed without hesitation. It was already troublesome here, and there couldn't be more trouble.
Bruce followed the doctor to his office. He could tell that the doctor's words were quite conservative. There must be something else.
As expected, the doctor asked him to sit down first.
"What is your relationship with the injured?"
"I'm his friend."
"Oh, here is the thing. Mr. Lucas's condition is not very good. In addition to the burn on his body, his head was hit, and there is a blood clot in it. It's not easy to recover in the later stage, and even if he recovers, I'm afraid there will be other complications. It is not sure yet. We can only watch the situation slowly."
"Oh, I see. No wonder that the doctor didn't tell the truth to the Lucas family just now. Lucas's grandpa has fainted. If he heard this, he would be worried to death on the spot." Bruce thought.
"Please treat him well, regardless of the subsequent complications, and ensure his safety."
"Of course. Don't worry. We will ensure the safety of the injured."
"Thank you."
It was the fact that the Johnson family came to see Ashley. But when they heard the doctor's words just now, they felt that it was Ashley who implicated Lucas. So they kept apologizing to the Lucas family.
"I'm really sorry. It's all Ashley's fault. No matter how to cure, the Johnson family will be responsible to the end."
Old Mrs. Johnson said sincerely. She just wanted to have a connection with the Lucas family. Luke listened without any response.
Hearing this, Emma held her hands and snorted coldly, "Do you want to be responsible to the end? Maybe you did this!"
"Miss Emma, don't talk nonsense." Old Mrs. Johnson pulled a long face and said, "Our Johnson family has some connections with your family. What do you mean by saying that?"
Hearing that, Emma pursed her lips. She was only worried about Lucas, but she couldn't say anything before things were clear.
Ashley got out of danger and moved to the general ward first. During this period, the Johnson family came to the hospital to see Lucas more frequently than to see her. If her best friend Lily hadn't come quickly, she would have been left unattended.
"What's your purpose? Everyone wants to hurt you, your parents don't love you either."
Lily wiped her hands with a warm towel and sighed in her heart.
They had been good friends from the university to now. She was very clear about what happened to Ashley, and it was difficult for her not to feel sorry for her.
Bruce came back from Lucas' ward. He felt a little relieved when he opened the door and saw that Lily was taking care of Ashley.
