Revenge After Divorce Novel by Black Rose

Chapter 318

OLIVIA

I couldn’t believe it when I got a call from Ethan telling me that Lupita was awake. That Nick woke her up. I had so many questions but no time to ask them. I wanted to see for myself that she was awake and doing well. My dad and I rushed to the hospital leaving my husband with the kids.

Upon arrival, we found Lupita awake and talking. I couldn’t be happier seeing that she was doing well. “Oh, Lupita, you don’t know how worried I was about you. Thank you for coming back to me.‘

“You should be thanking me; I am the one who woke her up.” Nick said proudly on the side with a proud smile on his face. He smelled like brewery and that told me he went drinking before going to the hospital. “Alright, Nick Jones the miracle worker. Why don’t you go and wake up grandma as well?”

His eyes widened then a disgusted look appeared on his face. He stood waving his hand. “No, I think I have done enough, I will leave grandma to the doctors.” He walked towards the door standing there as if he were getting ready to run. I laughed. “Lupita, let me go hear what the doctor has to say, I will be right back.”

She nodded with a smile on her face. God! I missed her smile; I was worried that I might not her it for a long time. I walked out of the room and bumped into the doctor. “Mrs Walker.” He greeted with a warm smiled.

“Hello doctor, I wanted to know that the situation is with Lupita.” He laughing as we moved away from the door a bit. “She is perfectly fine and can even go home now. she was never sick to begin with just asleep for a long time. But her limps might take a couple of days to get back to normal again.”

That was understandable as they had not been used in a while. “Nick says he woke her up.” The doctor laughed. ” Let him take the credit, however, she has been showing signs of waking up and whatever he said to her gave her the edge to wake up.” I wouldn’t tell Nick that, he would be disappointed.

There was no harm in letting him blow his horn for a while. “What about grandma?” the doctor’s face changed, and I knew it wouldn’t be good news. “Her situation is deteriorating instead of improving. We think she was allergic to whatever sedative she was given. Some people don’t wake up even under general anastatic. We are worried she might be one of those few people.”

My heart ached, how was I going to tell Lupita that my carelessness might cost her grandmother, the only family she had her life. how was I going to face her? “Is there anything that can be done for her?” I was willing to try anything.

“No, unfortunately there is nothing we can do for her at this point. At first, we thought her situation was the same as her granddaughter’s but when she started showing signs of waking up and her grandmother didn’t. we knew that something was amiss.” The doctor looked back at Lupita’s ward.

“We can’t test to see if she is allergic to anastatic as this point, but everything points to it. she is deteriorating and fast. I was going to call today and inform you of her condition. You might have a week at best with her or less.” noveldrama

Oh, dear heavens, I thought we had more. Time to find something to help her but now, I was going to have to tell Lupita the news. She was going to hate me for it. I took them out of the country and took them to that damned island.

Now her grandmother was dying because of me. “I am sorry, Mrs Walker. I wish I had better news.” The doctor tried to comfort me before walking away. I stood there for a while not knowing that to do.

I turned and looked at the ward, Lupita was laughing at something Ethan said. She looked so radiant and happy to have woken up. I wished I didn’t have to take away her smile. However, I had no other choice but to do just that.

She would hate me even more if I hid the truth from her, took away the time she could have spen

th her

grandmother if I didn’t tell her. I sighed deeply. My feet felt heavy as I walked back inside. She smiled at me and my heart broke.

“Guys, could you please give us a moment.” Ethan looked at me with a questioning look and I shook my head. It was not the time for him to ask. They left closing the door behind them. I sighed and took a seat next to Lupita’s

bed.

“Olivia?” I couldn’t even look at her. “I am sorry to do this to you now. I know you just woke up and if I could, I would keep it a secret, but I am afraid it will be too late if I do that.” Lupita frowned. “It’s grandma, isn’t it?”

I lifted my head to look at her. she didn’t look angry just sad “She is not getting better; The doctors believe she had an allergic reaction to whatever Xander gave you two. They don’t think she will last a week, Lupita. I am sorry, it’s all my fault.”

Lupita said nothing, I lowered my head in shame not sure what else to say or do. “If I didn’t take you two with me, none of this would have happened. I am sorry I caused this. She sighed.

“I wish I could curse and blame you for everything. But grandma wouldn’t want that. As much as I am angry, my anger is not directed at you. Xander did this, he and only him is to blame for what is happening.” Lupita was a good person just like her grandmother.

“I will go and see her. But I will ask that you make funeral arrangements. Grandma told me once that if she were ever in a situation like this, I should let her go. I am going to do as she asked. Make the arrangements.”

I couldn’t help the tears that fell from my eyes. Why did things have to be this way? Why did I have to leave home and go to the island and why did I bring Xander into our lives? I felt her hand on mine, and I stiffened. “It’s alright, Olivia, it’s what she wanted. We have to say our goodbyes now and let her go.”
