Chapter 859: Melissa Merce Wakes Up
At that moment, Finn Morgan’s phone rang. He got up and took a look, "It’s Dr. Shelby!"First, he wanted to bring this good news to everyone. A glimmer of hope flashed in Zachary Merce and Claudia’s eyes. Under everyone’s gaze, Finn answered the call—
"Hello, Dr. Shelby."
"Are you at the hospital?" Ian Shelby’s voice was gentle, "I’m done with my work and can come by anytime."
"I’m at the hospital, thank you for your hard work."
"It’s my duty."
Finn hung up the phone. Hailey Hale said to Claudia, "Melissa will wake up soon, Dr. Shelby is an authority in the field."
"So as soon as she wakes up, will you all just walk away?" Claudia suddenly felt afraid, initially asking Hailey, but then her gaze fell on Finn.
Before Finn could answer, Melissa’s fingers twitched. Jocelyn Morgan was the first to notice.
"Look! Her fingers moved!"
Everyone looked towards the hospital bed. The hand placed outside the blanket moved slightly, and the closed eyes shifted a bit.
The next second, everyone gathered around.
"Cindy..." Claudia was on edge, calling out, "Cindy, open your eyes, mommy’s here."
In a daze, Melissa opened her eyes. The faces of some people in front of her overlapped. It took a long, long time to finally see them clearly.
"You’re awake?" Jocelyn was genuinely happy.
Melissa didn’t answer, seemingly not fully aware. Her gaze seemed foreign, passing over Zachary and scanning everyone around.
Finally, her gaze returned to Zachary.
"Could you have amnesia?" Finn’s heart skipped a beat as he asked.
Melissa heard this and looked at him, staring unblinkingly, "Finn? Why are you here too?" She hadn’t looked closely earlier.
"Cindy, do you recognize me?" Claudia anxiously interrupted, afraid that her daughter might not recognize her mother upon waking.
Melissa slowly shifted her gaze back to her mother, "Mom... why am I lying here?"
Seeing Finn by her side made Melissa happy.
But when she saw Hailey was also there, her expression subtly changed.
Everyone exchanged glances, "Are you amnesiac or not?"
As Zachary recounted the accident to her, Melissa remembered in an instant, that fleeting moment.
She had originally intended to commit suicide, but when she saw the danger approaching Auntie Morgan, she chose to save Auntie Morgan...
Melissa fixed her gaze on Finn’s face, "Everyone out, Finn stays. I have something to say to him."
Jocelyn immediately glanced at Hailey.
"Let’s go." Hailey stood upright, taking Jocelyn’s hand, "Let’s go get some fresh air."
Zachary snapped out of it and also took Claudia’s hand, leading her out of the ward.
Finn actually didn’t want to be alone with her, but out of humanitarian concern, he stayed.
It would be good to clear some things up.
"Thank you for saving my mom," Finn started, "Don’t do such foolish things again. If you die, what about your parents?"
She hadn’t expected his first words to be scolding!
"Your dad told me you wrote a suicide note. I don’t know if your view has changed after the accident."
"But I want to advise you, sacrificing your life for me is not worth it."
"Your death brings me no benefit. I won’t feel guilty. On the contrary, I’ll live happily, living life the way it should be."
Finn’s words were truly infuriating!
"Are you done?" Melissa coldly asked.
"I’m done. Now you speak, I’m listening." Finn sat in the chair by her bed, "I’ll give you only two minutes to avoid Hailey misunderstanding that we have too much to talk about."
He left Melissa a little confused, not knowing what to say for a moment.
