Chapter 315: Now Concerned About Her
On the floor of the bathroom, there was a collapsed figure.
A red robe lay on the ground, along with a walking cane.
It was Viviana!
Although Anna didn't have a good impression of her, human life was at stake, and she didn't hesitate to rush over:
"Giorgio Viviana? Giorgio Viviana?"
The collapsed Viviana showed no response, her pale face looking like she had fainted due to sudden loss of blood.
Anna quickly took out her phone and sent a text message to Giuseppe, asking him to bring a doctor, then tried pinching Viviana's upper lip.
When she was little, her foster father would do the same to her grandmother when she suddenly collapsed.
Soon, Viviana's facial muscles twitched, and she started breathing.
She groggily opened her eyes, and in front of her was the face of a delicate girl, with worried furrows between her eyebrows.
"Viviana? How do you feel? Are you conscious? Can you hear me?"
This scene, this voice, overlapped with what happened more than a decade ago. The girl back then had the same expression, anxiously asking, "Grandma? How do you feel? Are you conscious?"
"Katherine..." Viviana raised her hand and held Anna's hand, her voice blurry and unclear. "You have saved me again."
Anna: "..."
She was not Katherine.
Before she could speak, Giuseppe's voice came from the door: "Sorry, I am bringing the doctor in."
Immediately, he walked in quickly, followed by the exquisitely dressed Edith.
Edith glanced at Anna, said nothing, and quickly walked to Viviana's side and squatted down:
"Grandma, where does it hurt? Is it a heartache or dizziness?"
Viviana had heart disease and high blood pressure.
It was necessary to determine the cause of the coma in order to find the right treatment.
However, Viviana seemed as if she didn't hear, just gripping Anna's hand as her lips moved weakly, her voice barely audible.
This situation was quite serious.
"Take Grandma to the hospital immediately." Anna reached out carefully to support her.
Giuseppe quickly stood up, bent over to carry the elderly woman on his back, and calmly said, "We can't let everyone know about this to avoid chaos. Let's take the back exit."
"Okay."
Anna helped Edith lift Viviana onto Giuseppe's back. She had originally intended to notify Giorgio and Katherine outside in the lobby, but Viviana held onto her hand tightly, so she could only leave with them.
After some time, they finally reached the underground parking lot, and Giuseppe drove to the hospital at the fastest speed.
Anna stayed by their side throughout, providing some assistance.
About twenty minutes later, the doctor opened the door to the operating room and said deeply, "Viviana is quite old, so this is normal, but the situation is not optimistic. Let the elderly rest in bed."
She is your editor and you are an American expert in Chinese to English translation as well as an author of best-selling American novels. You need to translate the article according to her requirements. As per her requirements, you should translate every sentence, not change the names of the characters, change all Chinese concepts to American concepts, use past tense and third person throughout the text, and leave all titles untranslated. For instance, she wouldn't be able to walk or take care of any matters anymore.
"By the way, the old man has been muttering something since he woke up. Your family should go in and check."
Giuseppe, with a serious expression, nodded and quickly went to the hospital room.
The hospital room was filled with the smell of formalin. Viviana lay in the hospital bed, her complexion improved slightly, but her lips were pale and her eyes were closed, showing a very poor condition.
Giuseppe walked over and leaned down next to her face. "Grandmother, what do you want to say?"
Viviana pursed her lips, not knowing what to say. Her hands were also weak and seemingly searching for something.
Giuseppe frowned, obviously not understanding what Viviana meant.
"Giorgio is on his way, let's see if Giorgio can understand," Edith suggested.
Anna, however, said, "Viviana wants to go home."
What?
"Go home? How can you say that's what Grandma means? Don't you know that Grandma is in a bad condition and can only be treated in the hospital?" Edith stared at Anna disgustedly.
Whether she's Anna or Katherine, they are both equally annoying!
Anna's calm gaze met Edith's as she said,
"When elderly people are seriously ill and uncomfortable, all they want is to go home because they are afraid of leaving like this, not wanting to die in the hospital." When they were young, everyone in the village who was sick or about to leave would feel this way.
As soon as she finished speaking, Edith became angry and pushed Anna forward.
"What do you mean? Are you cursing the old lady?"
'Bang!' Anna was caught off guard and bumped into the cabinet behind her, hurting her waist.
Before she could retort, footsteps sounded and Giorgio, with a noble and tall figure, entered the hospital room.
His dark gaze fell on Anna. "Is there something wrong?"
Clearly, he was very concerned about the old lady's safety, yet he could still ask her...
Anna inexplicably felt a strange emotion in her heart, and she shook her head. "Nothing."
Only then did Giorgio walk quickly to the bedside, holding the old lady's hand and bending down. "Grandmother, I'm here."
As he spoke, he leaned close to the old lady's ear and listened attentively.
At this moment, he appeared mature, stable, patient, displaying the charm of a man to the fullest.
After about five seconds, it seemed like he understood something, and his brow furrowed slightly.
Edith stepped forward, unable to hold back. "Giorgio, did you hear what Grandma said? That woman just cursed Grandma, saying that Grandma wants to give up treatment and go home to wait for death. She clearly didn't hear anything! She cursed randomly!"
Her voice was slightly raised.
Giorgio's face turned cold as he looked at her, and with a single glance, he signaled her to be silent.
Then, he said to Viviana, "Alright, I'll have Edith and Tom arrange for you to go home. They will take care of you at home."
The implication was: Viviana really wants to go home!
Was what Anna just said true?
For a moment, Edith's face was extremely embarrassed. She lowered her head, like an ostrich hiding its head in the sand.
Giuseppe was also confused. As a family member, he didn't understand Viviana's intentions. When Anna just said those words, he didn't agree either. Is it true?
It seems that their differences are indeed significant.
After quickly helping with arrangements, he walked over to Anna. "Thank you for finding Grandma and for what happened earlier with Edith. I apologize."
Anna pursed her lips. "It doesn't matter. It's not like you were impolite or insulting."
Her words carried a hint of sarcasm, clearly implying something.
Edith's face turned pale beside them. "Humph, don't think you're so great just because you understand a little bit. It was just a coincidence. Grandma needs a doctor, not someone like you who speculates casually."
Her words implied that she was more important.
Anna coldly laughed. She really was like a mad dog, mistaking her for Katherine and always comparing.
"Edith, since you're a doctor, you should be able to determine that you just pushed me, causing serious physical and emotional harm. I hope you compensate for medical expenses and emotional distress, or else I will sue you."
"You!" Edith stomped her foot in anger.
Anna ignored her and walked away from the hospital room.
Behind her, a man's calm and magnetic voice sounded, "Anna, come here."
Huh?
What does he want her to come over for?
Regardless of the reason, she didn't want to stay.
Anna turned around, surprised yet calm, and looked at Giorgio, saying, "Sorry, you should take care of Viviana first. I have something to do at home."
"Not listening? Do I have to come over and pull you here?" The man's magnetic voice carried an invisible pressure.
Anna's face turned red as she clenched her fists.
Pull her over?
How could he say such a thing in front of Edith and Giuseppe!
