Chapter 352 Possible Amputation
“Don’t worry, Jolly is not injured. Radley did everything he could to protect him. He’s now in the ward, recovering
from shock with some minor scrapes on his leg,” said Braxton. As he spoke, he pulled up at video of Jovius on his
phone and placed the phone on Freya’s bed. The video showed Jovius lying on his sickbed, looking like a poor little
creature.
Freya was relieved. It was indeed Jovius in the video; he was pouting his mouth in pain, ready to burst into tears at
any moment. She stared at the screen for a while before pausing for a few seconds. Then, she asked, “Where’s
Radley?”
“When the explosion happened, Radley hid in a steel filing cabinet next to the window and wrapped himself around
Jolly to protect him. He got injured from the explosion…” Braxton said before pausing for
a moment.
Freya quickly asked, “What happened to him?”
“He injured both of his legs. At the moment, he might need an amputation.”
“How is that possible?”
“The filing cabinet was sent flying by the impact of the explosion before falling from a considerable height. The
steel bars inside curled up and happened to pierce horizontally into his thighs, injuring both his legs, explained
Braxton. “Dr. Griffiths has already checked on him, and there aren’t many good treatment options.”
“I’ll go check on him.” Freya tried to stand up.
“You’d better not go right now. Both Madam Rosie and Radley’s sister are there.” Braxton pursed his lips. Radley
only ended up like this for trying to save Freya and Jovius. If Freya went there right now, she would definitely get an
earful from Rosie, who might get emotional to the point of raising her hand against Freya.
He didn’t know how to stop her if this were to happen. After all, Radley ended up like this because of his efforts to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsave Freya and Jovius; if the roles were reversed and Freya ended up like this to save Radley, he might have the
urge to kill the man. Still, he felt sorry for Freya and thus tried to stop her from going.
“No, I want to go see him.” Freya tried to get up. This time, Braxton didn’t stop her, but her legs felt weak as soon
as she stood up. “What’s wrong with me?”
“What’s wrong with you? Radley gave you a shot yesterday, and then there was such a big incident. You haven’t
been eating well lately, so where do you get the strength from?” Braxton replied coldly.
Filled with concern for Radley, Freya lay on her sickbed in a somewhat agitated mood. She wanted to tell Radley
that she had figured everything out at that very instant; the explosion had shattered the invisible. barrier between
them. She clenched her fists, saying, “Brax, Dr. Griffiths said he might not need an amputation! I have to regain my
strength quickly. There must be a way I can save him!”
On the seventh floor of Caltun General Hospital, Radley was lying in the intensive care unit. All the Monaghans were
present except for Daniella. Rosie sat by his bedside, her face pale and her eyes bloodshot, whereas Hannah’s eyes
were red from crying.
Lying on his sickbed, Radley had just regained consciousness. His face was still covered with an oxygen mask.
Mikael and Chris stood by, their expressions grave as they looked at him.
Dr. Griffiths had just visited and mentioned the possibility of amputation. This was something that Radley

to be the best option at the moment.
“There’s still half a month to go. Why are you guys crying?”
“But if there’s no improvement after half a month…” Hannah hesitated to finish her sentence. If there were no
signs of improvement by then, her brother would really lose his legs!
Chris, who usually took a casual attitude toward everyding, now had a serious expression on his face. “Don’t worry,
Hannah. I won’t let your brother have his legs amputated! I’ll set out to Damford tonight!” There were several
renowned doctors in Damford. This time, I’ll bring those doctors back, even if I’ll have to abduct them! he thought
with a determined expression.
Mikael glanced around the room. “How is Freya doing?”
Rosie’s expression became complicated at the mention of Freya. Now, she knew that Radley had ended up like this
to save Jovius, but she had also heard him say that Jovius was his son. Now that her son had sacrificed himself to
save her grandson, she didn’t know whether to blame Freya for this.
“I don’t know. I heard she’s been unconscious. Hannah pursed her lips. “Her brother called me and said we
shouldn’t let Melissa know about this. He’s afraid that she won’t be able to keep it a secret and that Old Mrs.
Marshall will find out.”
Mikael nodded. The police have completely cordoned off Emerald Dock. However, those people must have planned
this for a long time. They withdrew from the river amid the chaos after the explosion.”
Chris gritted his teeth in anger. “They got away really quickly, eh?”
Lying on his sickbed, Radley lowered his gaze, recalling the scene when he found his son on the first floor. jovius
had fallen from the third-floor atrium to the first floor. At first, he didn’t have high hopes of saving Jovius, but when
he saw Jovius, he noticed that the ground of the first floor was covered with many quilts to serve as some sort of
cushion. These people never intended to hurt Jolly from the start. Why? Even when Freya was in the building, they
had plenty of time to detonate it, but they didn’t. Instead, they only detonated it after she left. His gaze darkened.
Although he didn’t know why, it seemed that this group of people had no intention of harming Freya. “Mom,
Hannah, can you two go outside for a minute? I have something to discuss with Mikael, he said in a low voice. He
was still wearing an oxygen mask on his face, making his voice sound muffled as he spoke.

Rosie and Hannah left the room worriedly.
Only Radley, Mikael, and Chris remained in the room,
Radley frowned and tried to take the oxygen mask off his face, upon which Mikael immediately understood and
removed it for him. “Just say what you want to say.”
Radley’s eyes were cold as he described everything he saw.
How could this happen? Mikael pursed his lips. “If what you said is true, then there must be a connection between
these people and the Kaufmanns. It’s just that the Kaufmanns didn’t realize it”
“In any case, you should tell Braxton about this so that he can prepare against them, replied Radley. Then, he
added. “There’s one more favor that I’d like to ask of you It Freya wakes up and wants to come and see me, please
stop her
Chris frowned as he listened “Why? Aren’t you doing all this for her? I heard that when the explosion happened,
Freya kept calling your name. This is actually a good thing; it shows that she still cares about you Isn’t this an
opportunity for you two to get back together?”
