Mabel Quinn's nose tingled, her eyes already moist, and when the doctor came out, everyone hurriedly asked about the situation.
The doctor said, "The situation is not very optimistic. He is still in life-threatening condition, and if things worsen, a second surgery might be necessary."
Mabel's heart sank abruptly, which meant that her uncle might... That word, she didn't want to think about it, the possibility was too cruel.
Why do people who are kind to her always leave her? Her father did, and now her uncle... does he have to as well?
Mabel watched as Edward Quinn was wheeled into the ICU. Her heart felt clogged with something, so painful. Her uncle, just like her father, used his life to protect her, and no matter what, she didn't want him to leave her!
