Chapter 648 Do You Have Time to Come Over?
Nathan glared at Jasper and quickly strode forward, "Sir, how is it?"
"Don't worry, she's out of danger." The doctor sighed, glanced at him, then at Jasper. "But she's currently in a coma. Conservatively, it will take at least 6 hours for her to wake up."
The doctor's words made Nathan's heart skip a beat. "What's the longest it could take?"
The doctor shook his head and said nothing.
Nathan's face turned pale as he took a step back.
That meant she might never wake up.
How could that be!
He hadn't had time to forge Lily's will yet.
Currently, the entire Foster family was under Jasper's control, making it very difficult for him to get a share of the inheritance from Jasper.
If Lily died without a will, he would have even less chance of getting the Foster family's assets!
Nathan turned his head and glared at Jasper. "It's all your fault!"
After that, he was silent for a moment, realizing that Molly might have an antidote.
With the antidote, Lily might wake up faster.
Thinking of this, Nathan took a deep breath and, without even glancing at Lily, who had just been rescued from the emergency room, turned and left.
"You're such a bastard." Jason coldly glared at his back for a while before turning around.
Jasper stood by the bedside, tightly holding Lily's hand. He looked at her face, filled with sadness and regret.
Jason sighed and walked up to pat his shoulder.
Looking at Lily's tightly closed eyes and pale face, Jasper said in a low, hoarse voice. "He's right; it's all my fault. I always thought Grandma was a strong person. I thought that if I didn't reveal the truth, she would never see Nathan and Brenda for who they really are. If she wasn't around, I would need such relatives."
As he spoke, he gently traced Lily's wrinkled face with his fingertip. "Perphas I'm too cold-hearted about family; I didn't realize that such a useless Nathan was so important in Grandma's eyes..."
All these years, Nathan had always been useless, never caring about the Foster Group's business or taking on his father's responsibilities.
He thought Lily had long been used to it and had long been disappointed in him.
But he didn't expect that Lily still cared about Nathan.
Jason felt unable to comfort him and could only sigh, "Maybe, as people get older, they value family more?"
After confirming Lily's safety, Jasper followed the doctor to transfer Lily to the ICU.
After coming out of the ICU, Jasper had the doctor check on Lauren, who had also drunk the poisoned water.
After confirming that Lauren was also fine, Jasper, who had been busy for almost the entire night, sighed and asked Jason to take Lauren and Blake back to the Foster family mansion, then called Mia.
He hadn't forgotten about Adeline who was in a bad mood because of Nathan and was drinking at a bar.
At this moment, Mia and Violet had already moved the drunken Adeline to a hotel room upstairs from the bar.
When Jasper entered the room, the drunken Adeline was hugging Violet, kissing and hugging, crying and laughing.
"Jasper! Why do you make me doubt you like this? Why don't you explain to me!"
Jasper sighed, walked up, and took her from Violet's arms. "You don't ask me; how can I explain?"
He gently yet firmly guided her to the bed, holding her close to support her.
Violet and Mia exchanged a glance, then left the room in unison.
"Adeline." Jasper held her tightly, inhaling the scent of her hair, and silently closed his eyes.
He was not Nathan. With Lily in such a condition, he couldn't help but worry and feel guilty.
Since childhood, Lily had taught him to have a strong heart. He had recognized her cold-hearted demeanor and ruthless tactics
He never thought that Lily would become so fragile.
Perhaps sensing Jasper's emotions, the previously crying and fussing Adeline suddenly quieted down.
She bit her lip, turned around, and drunkenly hugged Jasper. "You still have me."
A sleepless night.
The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Adeline woke up.
She yawned and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings, her brows furrowed.
Just as she was about to get up to go to the bathroom, she realized she was being held tightly by Jasper.
Adeline's brows furrowed deeply. She thought, 'Why is Jasper here? Wasn't he supposed to be on a date with Molly yesterday? I was clearly drinking with Mia and Violet!'
Sensing her intention to get up, Jasper furrowed his brows, silently released her, and turned over.
Freed, Adeline was full of confusion. She took her phone and went into the bathroom.
Originally, she intended to call Mia or Violet.
But as soon as she turned on her phone, a flood of messages came in. Violet had sent her an audio clip.
Adeline frowned and clicked on it. Jasper's deep voice came through the phone, causing her eyes to widen.
The incident with Thomas six years ago was orchestrated by Nathan?
She knocked her head in realization.
How could she forget that the Foster family had two Mr. Fosters?
Besides Jasper, there was also Nathan. Taking a deep breath, she played the audio again.
Everything was clear now.
"You should also know that during that time, Adeline had just had an accident not long ago. "I had lost my entire world, and I was indeed not in a good state then."
As Jasper echoed these words, Adeline felt her heart resonate with a profound, tender warmth.
After a long time, she exited Violet's chat with red cheeks.
The top message was from Blake.
She frowned and clicked on it.
Blake had described everything that happened at the Foster family mansion and to Lily last night in a very serious and concise manner.
Adeline was so shocked she couldn't speak for a long time.
At that moment, her phone rang, it was an unknown number. Adeline frowned and answered.
"Hello, this is Larry from the Foster family mansion. I'm at the hospital now, can you come over? Lily has woken up. The first thing she said when she woke up was that she wanted to see you."
