Captivation: Want Nothing But You
Chapter 1487

“Although she is out of harm’s way as we speak, she has suffered serious cerebral hypoxia.

Therefore, she is still in a deep coma.

We are not sure about when she will wake up.

Also, not much can be said about the baby in her womb.

From all indications, the child’s condition is not clear.”

“Are you in any way insinuating that she may become a vegetable?”

Quintin asked in a husky tone.

His lips were dry.

The doctor didn’t say a word for a few seconds.

Then he broke his silence.

“It is hard to say.”

This was bad news to Quintin’s ears.

It took a while for him to come back to his senses.

He was pretty sure that the doctor was trying not to be too blunt.

“Tell me, does she have any chance of coming out of this?” Quintin was unwilling to give up on her.

“Well, the human brain is very complicated.

Despite the advancement in the world of science and technology, not much has been done as regards people who are in the state she is at the moment.” The doctor’s words were very official.

“Be that as it may, don’t be discouraged.

Some patients eventually wake up after a period of coma.

We have to give her some time to recover.

She sustained a number of serious injuries.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed for the next few days.”

Quintin pursed his cracked lips tightly such that they began to bleed.

In no time, his tongue tasted blood.

“And what about the baby in her belly?”

“Firstly, we have to make sure that the patient’s condition becomes stable.

It is then that we can carry out examinations on the baby.

If the child is in good health, it will grow up and be born normally.

If its mother doesn’t wake up by the time it is due for delivery, she will have to undergo a C-section.

This has been done to women in a vegetative state before.

It is an ethical practice.”

There was a brief silence.

Quintin just nodded his head without saying a word.

Days became weeks and winter passed quickly in the Marian islands.

A month after Rachel fell into a coma, top pediatricians and gynecologists around the world examined the baby in her womb.

Fortunately, they found out that the baby developed just fine.

Still, Rachel showed no signs of waking up.

Her belly just got bigger and bigger with time.

It looked like a balloon.

The nurse who was in charge of Rachel looked at her bulging belly and turned to

Quintin who was busy typing on a laptop.

“I think the baby is a boy,” she said knowingly.

If one were to compare Quintin’s present appearance to how he was a month ago, it wasn’t hard to tell that he was now calmer.

He decided to travel around the world to find the best doctors for Rachel after the baby was born.
