My Devil Husband
Chapter 27 He was unconscious

"What?" Grace's body shook and her face was filled with disbelief.

Carl was dead? He actually died? To save her?

No! She didn't believe it!

She choked back tears, pulled the needle out of her hand, got up from the bed like crazy and rushed towards the door of the room.

But Mason grabbed her wrist and said with a frown, "Grace, what are you doing? You are not well yet!"

"I'm going to find Carl. He can't just die like this!" Grace shook her head desperately. She has not proved her innocence yet. She has not found the real murderer who killed Caleb. She still had a lot to say to him. How could he just die?

"Grace, calm down!" Mason tugged at her tightly and her face took on a ghastly expression.

"I'm going to find Carl." She pushed him away with all her strength.

He laughed mockingly, stared at her back and said word by word, "Grace, I lied to you. Carl is not dead."

What?

Grace's body shook and her whole body froze in place.

"His operation is over. Although the wound is very deep, but the good thing is that the bullet did not hurt the important parts and he was sent to the hospital in time. Therefore, his life is not in danger." He hooked his lips and smiled, and continued, "I just heard that he hasn't woken up yet. I don't know the specific situation."

"So, you lied to me?" Grace looked at him with her head held high and bit her lower lip.

"Yes, I lied to you." He walked to her slowly and said clearly, "I just want to test whether you have put down Carl, but Grace, now it seems that ten years have passed and your feelings for Carl have not decreased at all."

For an instant, Grace's heart was aching hard.

Yes, no matter she was willing to admit it or not, she has never forgotten Carl in the past ten years. Her feelings for Carl have long been deeply rooted and grow like grass in her heart.

"What a pity." Mason squinted at her and smiled, "You like Carl so much, but in the end, you have me marry me."

He finished speaking, raised his eyebrows and turned to leave.

'mason." Grace suddenly called out to him.

He was dazed and stopped.

She bit her lower lip and said lightly, "Can you... let me go?"

"Hmm?" There was doubt in his long and narrow eyes.

However, she trimmed her scattered hair and said clearly, "The night three months ago, it was not Carl but Rose who wanted me to die, wasn't it?" "You know all about it?" He said in shock.

"Yes, I know." She nodded and continued, "I also know that it was not you, but Carl who saved me that night. Therefore, I don't owe you anything."

"I know your family is powerful, but I don't want to get involved in this war, so please let me go."

Hearing what she said, Mason froze for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked down at her. He laughed, "Grace, you are right about everything, but now, there is no way II can let you go."

"Why?" She was puzzled, "I am only one of your pawns anyway. There's no difference between me and anyone else, is there?"

"Of course there is." He approached her slowly, stretched out his slender fingers and touched her delicate face, and said with an evil smile, "I repaired your face, and of course it can only be used by me. Therefore, don't think about leaving me and going to Carl. I won't give you this opportunity. What's more, Carl won't want you either."

With these words, he patted her on the face gently, turned around and left without looking back.

Grace was thus trapped in this ward. Mason sent bodyguards outside the door to guard her. She could not leave at all.

Fortunately, on the third day, Hailey came.

Seeing Hailey, Grace was overjoyed, she took her and asked, " Hailey, why are you here?"

"I purposely went to beg Mr. Mason specially. He asked me to come and see you, but I can't stay too long." Hailey worried, "Grace, are you all right?"

"Yes, I'm fine." Grace said with a bitter smile.

Hailey, however, moved closer to her and whispered, "Grace, before I came here, I asked my friend who's a nurse to inquire about Carl's situation. I heard that he was in a very bad condition. He has been in a coma for several days and has not woken up. The doctor said that if he doesn't wake up, he will probably be brain dead."

"What?" Grace frowned tightly, holding Hailey's hand, she said, "Hailey, please help me. I want to see Carl."

"Are you crazy?" Hailey was shocked. "You are Mr. Mason's fiancee now. If you go to see Carl, he will be angry." "But Carl was injured because of me. I can't just watch him become a vegetable."

"But..."

"Hailey, I'm begging you, help me, all I can count on now is you."

"All right." Hailey hesitated for a long time and finally relented.

With Hailey's help, Grace changed into a nurse's uniform, with a mask and a nurse's cap, and soon got out of the ward.

She ran wildly all the way to Carl's ward.

Fortunately, Stella was not here and there was only Carl's nurse in the ward. Grace put the nurse off and slowly pushed the door in.

As soon as she entered the ward, she saw Carl lying on the sickbed with a pale face and an oxygen mask.

He was still the same as before, even if he was in a coma, he was still handsome, but his bloodless face made her feel inexplicably distressed.

She walked slowly to his side, gently stroked his face, greedily stared at him, with her eyes full of bitterness, "Carl, why on earth did you save me... Instead of this, it would be better to let me die simply..." What she feared most was entanglement, but it happened that she and Carl were just like this.

Just then, the sound of high heels came from the door.

'stella, what is going on here? How could Carl be shot and unconscious?" This voice belonged to Carl's mother Martha, but wasn't she abroad? Why did she suddenly come back?

Stella's voice sounded particularly sharp, "What else can the reason is? It's because of that woman Grace."

"Grace?" Martha's voice suddenly cooled down, "Wasn't she sent to a mental hospital? How did she get out?"

"Well, she escaped."

"I haven't got even with this woman for Caleb's death, how dares she to mess with Carl. I have to kill her!"

With the sound of Martha gnashing her teeth, the ward door was pushed open.

Grace was shocked and tried to hide subconsciously, but it was too late.
