Only Remaining Family

Thereafter, she turned and walked out.
Her footsteps were decisive and without a trace of nostalgia.
Jason looked at her resolute back and panicked, moving to chase after her.
“Ava…”
“Brother Jason!”
At this time, he heard a painful moaning sound behind him. “My stomach suddenly hurts…”
Jason’s expression changed, and he hurriedly turned around and quickly walked to her.
He held her. “Avery, what’s wrong with you?”
Avery covered her stomach with one hand and frowned. “My stomach feels uncomfortable suddenly, it hurts so much. Brother Jason, could something be wrong with our baby?”
At the mention of the baby being in trouble, Jason focused all his attention on Avery.
He never thought about Ava again.
With a tense expression on his face, he said, “No, absolutely not. Don’t worry about it, Avery, our baby will definitely be healthy. I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”
Ava walked to the door.
Hearing the movement behind her, she paused.
But soon, she pushed the door and went out.
She left the hotel.
Ava stood on the side of the road, looking at the busy streets absentmindedly.
Just a week ago, Jason had taken her to the Colton family’s house. His Father and Mother had even asked them when they were getting married and wanted to discuss the specific date with them.
At that time, who would have expected that she and Jason would break up so soon?
Betrayed by her childhood sweetheart, and he had actually cheated on her with her stepsister of a different mother. Ava felt like her life was really ridiculous, it was so melodramatic!
She had thought that all men might be taken by Avery, but not Jason.
However…
Only now did she know how naive and laughable her thoughts had been.
Reality slapped her in the face and woke her up completely.
Suddenly, her cell phone rang. Ava picked it up when she saw it was from the hospital.
“Hello.”
After listening, her face turned pale.
After getting out of the taxi, Ava rushed into the hospital.
Running too fast and too anxiously, she almost fell when she ran up the hospital stairs.
On a black Rolls-Royce parked not far away, the driver saw her hurriedly rushing into the hospital, thought for a while, then picked up the phone and dialed a phone number.
After the call went through, the driver said respectfully, “Chairman Easton.”
“What’s the matter?” At the other end of the phone, the man’s voice was low, cold, and full-textured, like a low, addictive sound of the cello.
“I have been following the lady as per your request, President Easton. It appears something has happened to her family member, and she just got a taxi to the hospital. She doesn’t look good and is very anxious. There are acquaintances in the hospital. Would you like to talk to them?”
The driver would not dare to usually gossip.
This was the first time President Easton had asked him to follow someone, and it was a woman.
This woman had come out of President Easton’s room this morning!
Based on this alone, she held an extraordinary significance to President Easton.
Before her, not even the shadow of a woman was around President Easton!
The man on the other end was silent for a few seconds. “Go over and take a look.”
“Yes, President Easton.”

In the hospital emergency room.
When Ava arrived, Jack was still under rescue.
After waiting for more than an hour in despair, the closed door of the operating room finally opened.
The doctors came out one after another.
Ava hurriedly walked over, grabbed the first doctor to come out, and asked, “Doctor, how is my brother?”
The doctor took off his mask. “The patient’s vital signs have stabilized, and there is no life threat for the moment.”
Ava’s tears flowed out suddenly. “So, my brother is safe now, right?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you, doctor! Thank you, doctor!” She was ecstatic and tears fell from her pale cheeks.
When Jack awoke, Ava was holding his hand and looking at his pale, frail face. She said distressingly, “Jack, how do you feel? Would you like the doctor to come over and check on you?”
“Sister, I’m fine.”
Jack’s voice was hoarse, and his speech was a bit laborious. “You don’t have to worry about me.”
Ava pursed her lips tightly.
How could she not be worried?
Jack was her only loved one left in this world.
Everything was fine.
However, at a sports meeting in Jack's third year of high school, he had fainted all of a sudden in the running competition.
Then it was discovered that he had heart disease.
This disease was very dangerous once it struck. He was in shock today and almost couldn’t be rescued.
Jack saw that she was worried, and his pale lips rose in a slight smile. He reached out and patted her on the back of the hand, pretending to be relaxed. “I’m really fine, don’t you think I’m fine now?”
“Jack, you…”
Ava’s eyes were red, and she was about to say something when the door of the ward was pushed open.
A group of doctors and nurses came in.
Ava recognized the person in front. It was the vice president of the hospital.
She looked at the group of people in shock and frowned slightly. “You…”
“Ms. Hudson, we are here to change Mr. Hudson’s ward.”
The vice president was very polite and was even respectful.
Ava was surprised again. Her heart skipped a beat and her expression changed. “Change the ward? Where?”
It seemed like the Hudson family already knew about her break up with Jason.
Her Father had been unwilling to treat Jack initially. He thought that it was a waste of money to spend money on treating his incurable illness.
But since she was engaged to Jason, he didn’t dare to make a big fuss.
Now that she and Jason had broken up, naturally, he didn’t have to worry about anything anymore.
Oh, this was reality.
Ava felt both angry and sad. Occasionally, she strongly doubted whether she and Jack had been adopted from outside, and Avery was Father's real daughter.
