BXBX NOVEL Chapter 214 - Emergency Call
After breakfast, Andien accompanied Lisa in the room all day long. They exchanged stories and discussed the latest celebrity gossip news. Sometimes they joked around like when they were still working at Petersson Communication while ordering snacks.
"Yes, Damar is way fiercer than before now, Lis! He used to be a bit shy and quiet, that\'s the kind of person he was in the past," Andien said with a laugh.
"That boy must be so fierce because of work stress! Haha, I\'m really sorry, but if he\'s not fierce I\'m sure none of the employees will listen to him," Lisa replied casually, stretching her hands above her head.
"I really miss the time when I worked in the same office as you. But what do you do with your position now? Doesn\'t it seem like our working hours are really different?" Andien asked pleasantly.
"Yes, at Colors Advertising, it\'s still much more relaxed because it\'s still a new company and smaller than Petersson Communication. Why do you ask, Ndien? Do you want to move? You better don\'t! The salary is not as big as at Petersson Communication, please believe what I say," Lisa explained at length, then taking a sip of water from her glass.
The clock showed 12 at noon. While the two friends were still talking, Oscar came in with rushing steps as if he had just heard bad news. Time for Andien to return to work. The plump woman got up from her seat and said goodbye to Lisa and Oscar.
"I\'ll excuse myself first, I want to go back to the office," Andien said politely to Oscar. "Lis! Don\'t forget to take your medicine and eat a lot!" Andien exclaimed to Lisa.
Lisa waved her hand then glanced at Oscar\'s troubled face. That afternoon, Oscar did not look like usual, his face looked very worried and anxious. Lisa could even hear his erratic breathing which was a little faster than usual. This guy must be in big trouble, she thought.
Suddenly, Oscar\'s cell phone ring broke the silence. The man immediately picked up the call and answered to the caller with a nervous tone. Lisa had to pretend she couldn\'t see the man clearly, so she did her best not to turn her face directly towards Oscar who was currently standing on the window sill.
"What happened to William?"
"Gosh, when?!"
"Okay, I\'ll follow you to the hospital. You wait for me there."
Oscar hung up the call and put his cell phone in his pocket. He took a deep breath and then blinked. His heart was beating very fast. Without realizing it, his eyebrows were knit together and his expression looked sullen. Obviously, this man was not calm!
Lisa turned her face slowly then looked at Oscar as if her vision had not yet recovered. She also heard William\'s name from the call between Oscar and the caller. She didn\'t know what exactly happened but she suddenly felt something bad happened to William!
Lisa mustered up the courage to ask Oscar a question. The woman sighed then said, "What\'s wrong, Oscar? Is there a problem?"
"Yes, I have to go to another hospital to deal with an urgent matter. Don\'t worry about me, you eat a lot and don\'t forget to take medicine from the doctor. Tonight, I will come back to accompany you again," Oscar said, trying to calm himself down so as not to make Lisa panic.
"William… What happened to him, Oscar?" Lisa asked again. The question just now made Lisa nervous and afraid to offend Oscar.
Even though Lisa realized that William was not her own child, every time she heard the little boy\'s name, her hunch always said that William was her son. It was as if William was her real child with Oscar. The little boy\'s name always awakened Lisa\'s maternal instincts especially if she heard that something bad has happened to him!
Oscar took a deep breath before he answered Lisa\'s last question. "William is in hospital, I have to visit him right now!"
Lisa nodded, for some reason she really supported Oscar to meet William and finish his business. "Okay, go to your son now before it\'s too late! Don\'t worry, I can take care of myself. The doctors and nurses are also ready to help me here," Lisa answered, trying to convince Oscar.
Oscar grabbed his jacket and left Lisa alone in the cold and lonely room. Silence began to approach her room. There were no sounds that bothered her except for the sound of soft footsteps and the voice of a nurse shouting from outside the room.
The evening approached, Lisa was still worried about Oscar and William. All day long, she couldn\'t sleep peacefully. She was even worried about a child who was clearly not her biological child! Lisa thought she was crazy, why did the inner bond between William and herself feel so strong even though they were apart?
Lisa couldn\'t calm herself down in that cold room alone. She paced back and forth in the room holding her cellphone. Lisa was very upset, her hunch said William was in very bad shape and she should meet him. But how? Lisa was in a state that made it impossible for her to get out. Nobody knew what entered her mind right now but there was a strong urge from within her to ask about William from Oscar.
The woman arranged the words on her cell phone, asking how William was. Before Lisa finally hit the send button, she took a step back. She just realized, at this time, Oscar did not know that her vision had returned. Lisa then racked her brains so that the message she was going to send didn\'t look suspicious.
"Sorry, this is the nurse who took care of Lisa. I was asked to write this message for you. Lisa asks, how is William doing now?" Lisa said in her mind. After she wrote the modified sentence, she pressed the send button.
Lisa sighed with relief and then laid down on the bed. Moments after she had sent the message to Oscar, her heart grew even more anxious. She then took the initiative to call Oscar but there was no answer. She tried to call the blonde haired man again, but there was still no answer.
Lisa was getting worried about it. The woman was pacing the room, racking her brains to find a way how she could contact Oscar. She then tried to contact Dani but there was no answer at all.
A few minutes passed, Lisa tried to call Oscar again. The call was connected and it was finally picked up! Lisa could hear Oscar\'s deep, sensual voice from across the phone saying, "Hello?"
"Oscar! It\'s me, Lisa! I asked the nurse to help me call you. How\'s everything!? I\'m worried! What about William?"
