My Accidental Husband is a Billionaire

481  Chapter 480

Everybody tensed, staring fixedly at the entrance of the operating room.

The first to come out was the director.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his complexion pale as paper, which made the three people uneasy.

Austin rushed toward him. "Director, how is my sister?!"

The director stammered, "We did our best but still couldn't stop the bleeding..."

This sentence left Austin frozen in place.

Lady Gill staggered back a few steps, steadying herself with the wall behind her.

Even Matias sank into a silent despair.

It was at this moment that Keira also came out.

She removed her cap and mask and smoothed her tightly bound hair as she stepped out, only to be confronted by Austin. "Was it you? Did you kill my sister?!"

Keira was perplexed.

Before Keira could speak, the director hastily interjected, "Mr. Gill, it's not like that. Let me finish what I am saying."

"What else is there to say?! It must be her!"

Austin was nearly going crazy.

The director tried to calm him down. "Miss Gill's life is no longer in danger!"

These words made Austin pause again. "What did you say?"

The director sheepishly said, "I meant, we did our best but still couldn't find the bleeding point. Later, when Miss Olsen took over, she quickly found the spot and stitched it up successfully. The bleeding has stopped! Thanks to Miss Olsen, Miss Gill is saved!"

Keira said lightly, "It's nothing. It was all thanks to your instruction. I don't understand much about medicine."

The director didn't know what to say.

They had ample theoretical knowledge, but none had hands steady enough for such a complicated surgery!

Theory alone wasn't enough!

But he didn't say any of that. Instead, he stepped aside.

Nara was pushed out on an operating table...

The director said, "Miss Gill fell from the fourth floor, breaking several bones, including the tibia and radius, as well as her ribs ... The internal bleeding has stopped. Fortunately, there was no brain hemorrhage, but she still needs to be transferred to the ICU for observation."

Lady Gill eagerly asked, "Then when can she wake up?"

The director immediately said, "That, we cannot say for sure. Miss Gill is weak and would normally wake up after the anesthesia wears off, but she seems overly worried lately and is exhausted, so she might need to sleep for some more time. We don't know exactly when she will wake up."

Hearing this, Lady Gill looked at Nara, feeling heartbroken.

She and Austin followed closely behind Nara, watching with their own eyes as Nara was brought into the hospital room.

The ICU ward didn't allow visitors, so Lady Gill and Austin stood outside, staring steadily through the glass from the outside.

Nara's legs and arms were suspended in mid-air to prevent her from moving and injuring the fractured areas. She was asleep, her little face pale and bloodless. She seemed like a broken doll stitched back together.

After a while, Austin once again slapped himself.

After doing so, he blurted out, "It's all my fault! I'm such a bastard!"

Lady Gill's eyes were also brimming with tears as she stared inside the room. "It's my fault. I indulged you too much, letting you hurt your sister!"

"It's my fault!"

Austin hung his head as if his soul had been sucked out. "Mom, it's all my fault! I know it now. If I had ever considered how I would feel if my sister encountered someone like me, I would never have treated a girl like that! It was all my fault!"

After saying that, he once again slapped himself.

Both his cheeks were swollen from his slap, but this pain couldn't alleviate the ache in his heart in the slightest!

Just thinking about what he had done to his sister...

He had cut off all her internship opportunities and even, together with his mother, forced her to jump off a building...

Austin slapped himself once more!

Lady Gill clutched at her chest, feeling suffocated. "It was my fault. I'm to be blamed more than you are!"

Keira and Matias watched the two of them, their mouths twitching.

Keira reminded them, "Lady Gill, Austin, instead of blaming yourselves here, you might want to think about how to punish Jackson instead." NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

That remark snapped them out of it.

Lady Gill and Austin finally found a target to vent their anger on, their eyes instantly growing fiercer.

Austin gritted his teeth with rage. "Right, it was Jackson who deceived us! Not only did he not tell us the origin of this jade pendant, but he also tricked us into bullying Nara when he knew she was my sister. What on earth was he planning?!"

Lady Gill clenched her fists even tighter. "He played us!"

Hearing this, Austin turned and walked away.

Lady Gill asked, "Where are you going?"

"To seek revenge for my sister! Mom, don't worry. The younger generation can settle our matters!"

After leaving these words behind, Austin walked away.

Lady Gill stood still, thought for a moment, but ultimately didn't follow.

She looked toward Keira, her mouth trembling as she tried to say something, but in the end, she said a simple "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Keira said indifferently, then continued. "I was only trying to save my friend's sister, but the Gill family owes me a favor. How do you plan to repay it?"

Lady Gill immediately understood what she meant. "Just name it. As long as your demand is not excessive, the Gill family will agree to it!"

Lady Gill had once silently vowed that if one day someone could help her find her daughter, even if it would cost half of the Gill family's fortune, she would be willing to give it away!

Half of the Gill family's fortune was her bottom line...

While thinking of this, she heard Keira say, "I don't have any other requests. I would like to finalize a collaboration with the Gill family."

Lady Gill was slightly startled, "Is that all?"

"Yes."

Keira thought about the pharmaceutical industry and finally said, "I have a medical research institute, so how about this? Our two families will sign a ten-year supply contract, with your hospitals distributing the medicine produced by my research institute."

Many hospitals sought medicine from the Nora Research Institute, domestically and internationally.

She didn't want to take advantage of the Gill family; if there were to be cooperation, it would be best if it was mutually beneficial.

But Lady Gill misunderstood...

There were thousands of medical research institutes in the country, apart from the Nora Research Institute, which they were eager to work with, the rest were all vying to cooperate with Crera's hospitals. After all, the Gill family could almost claim a monopoly over Crera's healthcare system.

So, whatever medicine Keira's research institute produced, Lady Gill could purchase it with just one word... If the medicine wasn't effective, it didn't matter. They could just leave it in the warehouse after buying it!

Each year, they could use this money to repay the favor!

Lady Gill nodded lightly and asked, "What's the name of your medical research institute?"
