My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 173

Chapter 173 

Usually, it was Rooney who initiated the violence, but today, she found herself slapped by Hubert. 

Having been hit at the Chateau Hotel tonight and now again, Rooney could not stand it anymore and immediately lunged to scratch Hubert’s face. 

Suddenly, there was a sound from the ruins in front of the villa. 

A ragged Nash helped Harrison up, and then the two found Herman, who was charred from the rubble. 

“Quick… The stretcher…” 

Mr. Dean shouted at several of the nurses. 

They immediately ran over with the stretcher. 

Many of the injured were losing too much blood and needed to be rushed to the hospital for a transfusion. 

The hospital simply did not have enough ambulances, so Jupiter asked his team to use patrol cars to transport the wounded. 

It was three o’clock in the morning at Jonford People’s Hospital. 

Mr. Dean called over all the attending physicians to treat the injured Lewises. 

Herman had burns covering more than 90% of his body, multiple organ failure, and symptoms of fibrosis in his lungs. 

All the experts in the hospital were at a loss. Nash had temporarily saved Herman from death’s door using Divine Needles. 

“Dr. Yarbrough, Dr. Langdon, you two watch over old Lewis’ oxygen supply.” 

Mr. Dean arranged for two elderly senior directors to personally look after Herman. 

Looking at Herman’s unrecognizable face covered by the oxygen mask, Nash felt a sense of unease. 

Herman had inhaled a large amount of toxic gas, causing multiple organ failure. His lung ulcers accelerated fibrosis, and he could only rely on oxygen to maintain his breathing now. 

Mr. Dean asked in confusion, “Dr. Calcraft, what exactly is wrong with old Lewis?” 

He had seen countless burn victims, but he had never seen a patient with complete internal organ failure like Herman. 

Nash sighed. “The source of the explosion carried a kind of toxin. If too much is ingested, it can put all the internal organs at risk!” 

Earlier, when saving Herman, he had smelled a pungent, metallic smell. It was likely the poisonous gas that led to Herman’s organ failure. 

Mr. Dean took a deep breath. “So, the other patients are also…” 

Nash nodded. “Those rescued from the house won’t last till tomorrow!” 

Upon hearing this, Mr. Dean’s heart sank. “Even you can’t do anything about this?” 

Nash did not reply but turned and walked outside the intensive care unit. 

If it was just the initial poisoning, there might be ways to treat it. 

However, Herman’s organs had been completely destroyed by the poisonous gas. Even if his master were here, he would probably be helpless. 

Outside in the lobby, the governor of Jonford, Jade, and Henderson had arrived. 

They were comforting Harrison’s and Hubert’s families. 

Zakariah from the Martial Arts Association had also arrived with his granddaughter, Skadi. 

Of the Five Elites, only Joseph and his daughter Olivia were here. 

Skadi and Bianca were comforting the tearful Hera. 

Seeing Nash come out, everyone looked eagerly at him. 

Harrison stood up from the ground and hurriedly approached, asking, “Nashy, how’s Dad doing?” 

Nash pursed his dry lips, the words he had prepared earlier stuck in his throat. 

Harrison already had a guess about what Nash would say. Darkness seemed to envelop him as he fell straight forward. 

Nash caught Harrison and grabbed his wrist to check his pulse. Seeing that it was normal, he let out a slight sigh of relief. 

“Nash, is my dad okay?” 

Hera’s eyes were swollen from crying as she came over and asked. Her voice was choked and slightly hoarse. 

Nash gently replied, “Mr. Harrison will be fine. He just needs to rest for a while!” 

Lauren came over and took Harrison from Nash while choking back on her tears. “I’ll take care of Harrison. You go check on the other patients…” 

At this moment, a group of emergency doctors came to report to Mr. Dean about the condition of their patients.  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
