The doctor roared, "Call the traffic police to clear the way and speed things up! Get the hospital ready for surgery immediately; the patient's condition is critical."
But three calls the nurse made to the hospital were rejected.
Her eyes reddened with anger. "Why? Isn't Dr. Terra Mr. Alvarez's fiancée? How can he allocate all the resources to a woman who hasn't even scratched her?"
She choked back tears, unable to continue, "Dr. Terra is dying."
The entire ambulance crew fell silent.
They all knew that in the hospitals under the Alvarez Group, a private, VIP ward was always reserved for Matilda.
She was the younger sister of Maximo's deceased wife after all.
Having witnessed her sister's brutal death while trying to save her in a torrential downpour, she developed severe "torrential rain syndrome" from that experience.
Every time it rained heavily, she would have a seizure and lose control; only Maximo could calm her down.
And I, her fiancée, because of Matilda's repeated interference, had to stand up ten times before we could get our marriage certificate.
Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. "A drizzle triggers her seizure; a clap of thunder triggers her seizure—does she really only see you as her brother-in-law?"
Maximo was stunned when his hand struck me.
He looked away, his face stiff and said, "If you can't tolerate Matilda, this marriage isn't necessarily going to happen."
I looked at him, a sharp pain piercing my heart.
I desperately tilted my head back, trying to hold back my tears, but they still streamed down my face.
On the third day of Maximo's cold violence, I finally gave in and prepared a surprise for him.
But on my way to the hospital to find him, I was run over and killed by Matilda.
My memories were fragmented, I felt like I had forgotten something important.
But my body had already uncontrollably drifted to Maximo's side.
Inside the VIP ward, the room was so crowded with doctors in white coats that there was barely room to step.
"Mr. Alvarez, the test results show that Miss Philips's condition is fine, please don't worry."
Even though the experts present repeatedly assured her, Matilda remained huddled in Maximo's arms, her eyes red and trembling.
"Max, it's raining so hard, there are bad people, I'm scared."
Maximo was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang.
