Chapter 947 Be Mentally Prepared
Even if it meant death, he would bring her home.
Jacob was captured, and Maria was dead.
She had no one left to rely on but him.
Even if all he could bring back was a corpse, even if he could never walk down the aisle with her, he would bring his beloved home and let her soul rest in peace.
"Thank you," Henry's voice cracked. "Thank you, Mrs. Medici. Thank you, everyone..."
When Lola was brought up, Henry could hardly believe his eyes.
The once elegant and beautiful Lola, now disheveled, covered in wounds, and barely clinging to life.
His heart felt like it was being crushed by a boulder, so heavy he could hardly breathe.
His Lola, the love of his life, now looked nothing like a person.
Not only was her forehead injured, but there were bloodstains on her face, hands, feet, and clothes.
When the servant handed Lola to him, he could hardly believe it. He held her carefully, afraid to hurt her even a little.
He had held her before, but now she felt so light, much lighter than before, her body limp and devoid of strength, burning with fever.
Tears streamed uncontrollably down his face, his heart felt like it was being torn apart.
His Lola, after just a few days, had become like this.
Kimberly ordered two large boxes to be brought up.
Inside were Lola's trophies, medals, and certificates from childhood to adulthood.
These were given to her by the Medici family. If it weren't for the Medici family's support and the tutors they hired for her, she wouldn't have achieved so much or gained so much honor.
"Take these with you. Besides these, everything related to her will be disposed of." Kimberly's voice was cold and emotionless, her expression equally indifferent. "Also, she is not our biological daughter and will no longer appear on our records."
Henry understood that the Medici family wanted to erase all traces of Lola's existence in their home.
If they didn't hate her so much, given the Medici family's way of handling things, they wouldn't be so ruthless.
They truly wanted to sever all ties with Lola.
Although he hated to see Lola come to this, causing such a rift with her family, Henry understood the Medici family's feelings. Lola had truly hurt them this time.
"From now on, the Medici family has no connection with her." Kimberly's tone was cold and merciless.
"Yes..." Henry knew Lola had committed an unforgivable mistake. He spoke sincerely and apologetically, "Over the years, Lola has caused trouble for everyone. I thank you all on her behalf. Thank you to everyone in the Medici family for raising, nurturing, and caring for Lola. I will always remember the kindness you have shown her over the past eighteen years and will never forget it."
"Remember your words. If she survives and becomes a threat, we will not only eliminate her but also won't spare the Hall family."
Kimberly's words made Henry pause, but he quickly responded politely, "Yes, Mrs. Medici. I will always remember your words. Now, Mrs. Medici, Mr. Medici, I will take my leave."
He bowed in thanks.
Two of his men each carried a large box and followed him out.
As soon as Henry stepped out of the main building, tears streamed uncontrollably down his face, and his pace quickened, almost running.
His voice trembled with pain and sorrow, "Lola, hang in there..."
No matter what, she had to hang in there!
"I'm Henry. I'm taking you home!" He was terrified that Lola would die in his arms. He wanted to hold her tightly, but was afraid of hurting her.
The RV was parked outside the villa.
As soon as he ran out, someone opened the door, welcoming him inside.
The RV was equipped with the most advanced medical equipment and the top doctors he had hired at a high price.
"Quick, save her... She's burning up!" Henry placed Lola on the prepared stretcher bed.
The RV door was closed, and several doctors immediately began examining Lola. The vehicle started moving.
Henry's gaze fell outside the window, just in time to see several Medici family servants throwing Lola's used sheets, clothes, and personal items into the trash bins outside.
There were so many things that the two large trash bins couldn't hold them all, and many items were piled on the ground, forming a small mountain.
"Mr. Hall, Ms. Medici's wounds were not treated in time and have become severely infected, causing a high fever. This situation is very dangerous. We must go to the hospital immediately, and I ask you to be prepared..."
The doctor's voice brought Henry's attention back. He asked, his voice trembling, "What do you mean?"
"She has had a high fever for two or three days. Her body temperature is so high that her digestive system, nervous system, and circulatory system are showing abnormalities. There is a high possibility of organ damage, which can lead to elevated liver enzymes, reduced platelets, and coagulation issues. In short, the situation is not optimistic."
Henry felt frozen in place. Although he knew the chances of saving her were slim, he hadn't expected it to be this severe.
"Additionally, her forehead, palms, and the backs of her hands have wounds that have been left untreated for too long. Some are swollen, some are bleeding, and some are festering. There are also deep glass shards embedded in her knees that were not cleaned and treated in time, causing her knee joints to swell. Her legs can't straighten, and we need to take X-rays at the hospital to check for any remaining glass shards. If there are, the situation will be even more serious..."
"Then what are we waiting for? Save her!" Henry was terrified of wasting even a second!
His gaze fell back on Lola. He hadn't looked at her closely at the Medici Manor, but now he saw that her face was swollen and deformed.
"Her face is injured too?" Henry asked.
The doctor continued treating her wounds while saying, "It looks like she was slapped multiple times, and there are marks from hot water burns."
"What did you say?" Henry couldn't believe it.
The Medici family even burned her with hot water? No, it couldn't be. The Medici family couldn't be so cruel.
If they had intentionally burned her, why only her face?
"Was the water very hot?" Henry asked, his heart aching.
"Not extremely hot, but enough to cause burns. The skin on the face is more delicate..."
Henry guessed that perhaps the Medicis, upon hearing what she had done, in a fit of anger, had thrown their tea at her, which led to the burns.
