Chapter 1158

Cooper only retracted his gaze when he felt his eyes tearing up.

It was then he saw Sally standing behind him, but he had no energy left in him to scold her. Hence, he said, “Go

away and stay away. I don't wish to see you.”

Sally pursed her lips and left silently.

Shortly after, a nurse approached Cooper and gave him a glass of warm water. “Sir, please have a glass of water to

calm yourself. Besides, your lips are chapped.”

“Thank you.” Cooper didn't take the glass of water. Instead, he just kept staring at the emergency room.

Left without a choice, the nurse put the glass of water on a chair nearby and left. After turning a corner at the end

of the corridor, the nurse said to Sally, “He's very anxious and wouldn't drink any water.”

In response, Sally hummed and thanked the nurse.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the doors to the emergency room were finally pushed open. The medical

staff wheeled a hospital bed out, and Amanda was lying on it.

Although Amanda had regained consciousness, she still looked as pale as a sheet.

Cooper rushed to Amanda's side and bent down to check over her. After heaving a sigh of relief that she was fine,

he asked gently, “Are you feeling okay, Mandy?”

Amanda shook her head and answered, “I feel thirsty.”

The nurse pushed Amanda away to let the doctor and Cooper have a moment alone. The doctor said, “The child

fainted because she was dehydrated. She's fine. If you're still worried, you can keep her here for us to monitor her

for the next few hours.”

“Thank you,” Cooper replied before sending the doctor off. After that, he went to Amanda's ward.

Lucian had come over to visit Amanda, but he was still feeling unwell after taking the flu shot. Therefore, he kept

his mask on and stayed a distance away from the hospital bed.

After taking a few segments of the orange Cooper had peeled for her, Amanda said, “Uncle Cooper, Lucian told me

you scolded Aunt Sally when you couldn't find me.”

“I told her to protect you guys, but she didn't even take good care of you,” Cooper answered flatly.

“Aunt Sally has nothing to do with it. I came out from the ward on my own.” Amanda pursed her lips and added, “I

was told that there was a pond behind the hospital. If I were to make a wish sincerely as I walk toward the pond, my

wish would come true. I was wishing for Granddad to wake up soon. I thought it would be more sincere if I were to

take the longer path. That was why I took the stairs.”

Cooper lifted his hand to caress her cheek and asked, “If that's the case, how did you end up in the freight

elevator?”

“I don't know.” Amanda gave it some thought and continued, “As I was walking down the stairs, I was praying for

Granddad. However, someone suddenly came from behind me and held a hand over my mouth. I caught a whiff of

a nice smell and fainted there and then. When I woke up, I was already in the elevator. However, none of the

buttons in the elevator seemed to be working. I wasn't tall enough to reach the emergency button either.”

Cooper immediately realized someone was watching them closely. I bet the perpetrator was waiting for Sally to

leave the ward. When that person saw Mandy walking out of the ward alone and going to the staircase, that person

must've made her unconscious and dumped her in the elevator. However, the emergency exit didn't have any

surveillance cameras, and the one in the freight elevator wasn't in service...

Seeing that Cooper wasn't responding, Amanda held and shook his hand before saying, “It's really not Aunt Sally's

fault. Will you stop being angry at Aunt Sally, Uncle Cooper?”

“If she hadn't left you alone in the ward, none of this would've happened.” Cooper felt fearful when he recalled how

he saw Amanda unconscious in the elevator the moment the door was pried open. Sally abandoned Mandy to look

after her brother. I can't forgive her for that.

Upon hearing those words, Amanda pouted. As she was about to say something, Cooper touched her cheek and

uttered gently, “Have a nap, okay? Once you wake up, we'll go to Mrs. Sullivan's for a meal.”

Amanda saw Cooper frowning deeply, so she knew there was nothing she could say to change his mind. Feeling

slightly exhausted, she quickly dozed off.

Cooper tucked her in and turned toward Lucian. “Luc, do you want to nap?”

“I'm not sleepy,” Lucian answered. He then whipped out his headphones, put them on, and sat cross-legged on the

couch to watch his show.
