Chapter 1180 I Didn't Protect Mom Well
Looking at his father, who was so serious for the first time, Lucas opened his mouth wide. He wanted to cry, but he
tried his best not to. His eyes and nose were red, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Dad, what's wrong with
Mom..."
This time, the child was really scared. He was afraid that something would happen to Evelyn.
Huston closed his eyes and took the child's hand. He was extremely angry, but in order not to make the child more
afraid, he tried his best to suppress his anger. "It's okay. Mom is fine. The doctor will come and treat Mom in a
while, and Mom will wake up."
Lucas nodded, and the tears in his eyes were on the verge of falling. "When something happened to Mom, she said
she wouldn't let me get out of the car, so I didn't. But I saw Mom being dragged away by the car. It's all my fault. I

As he spoke, his fragile heart seemed unable to endure the terrifying scene just now, and he finally burst into tears.
Huston held his small body in his arms and felt sorry for him. "It's not your fault. It's right that you listened to Mom
and didn't get out of the car. You did a good job."
Lucas blamed himself and buried his head in Huston's broad arms. He kept wiping the tears on his face with his little
hands. "But I didn't protect Mom well."
When Huston heard this, his heart ached. He distanced himself from Lucas and held the child's cheek with both
hands. "Lucas, look at me. You've already done very well. It's not your fault. The bad guy will be punished. You don't
have to be sad, okay?"
No matter how strong the child's psychological endurance was, he would not be able to bear to watch Evelyn being
thrown out of the car. Huston could only slowly appease his emotions. On the other hand, he called the driver over
and planned to settle Lucas down with Lucy and Ben later.
In this case, if the child continued to stay in the hospital, it would only aggravate the uneasiness in his heart.
Not long after, the driver drove downstairs. Huston personally sent Lucas to the car. Before getting in the car, he
saw the child's frightened gaze and knew that he must be very afraid of cars now.
However, there was nothing he could do. Evelyn hadn't woken up yet, so he couldn't leave the hospital. He could
only remind him, "Be good, Lucas. The driver will take you back, and you'll see Grandma and Grandpa soon."
Lucas sniffed. He was so obedient that it made Huston's heartache. "I understand. Daddy, go take care of Mommy."
The more he acted like this, the more upset Huston felt. He kissed his forehead and watched the car disappear
from his sight until it was completely out of sight. Then, he turned around and left.
When he returned to the emergency room again, seven or eight doctors in white coats were standing beside the
bed. One of them was the director of this hospital in a blue shirt.

Seeing Huston coming over, the director immediately reached out to greet him. "Mr. Lloyd, you're here."
He gently shook hands with him, and his gaze immediately returned to the small figure on the hospital bed. "How is
my wife?"
The two of them were not married yet, but he called her his wife. The director raised his hand to wipe the sweat
from his forehead. He was under a lot of pressure. "Before you arrived, I had already had the professionals take
care of Miss Shelton's injuries. Now, the bleeding has stopped, and the test results are out. It shows mild
concussion, multiple contusions of soft tissues, and a strained ligament in the left arm's elbow area. The condition is
not serious but rather uncomfortable. It would be best for her to stay in the hospital for a few days of observation."
The hospital director, whom we usually couldn't see due to his busy schedule, was speaking with great respect as
he reported the situation. The department heads following him exchanged a subtle glance and couldn't help but
marvel at what kind of character Mr. Lloyd was.
When Huston heard the injuries, it was as if he was in pain. He took a deep breath and did not want to implicate
innocent people. He ordered with his thin lips, "There's no need. Someone from the Lane's Hospital will pick her up
later."
