YOUR PRESENCE WILL HELP CHRISTOPHER
Once the paramedics left Christopher in the emergency room of the hospital, the doctor on duty took out his wallet to identify him and to know if he had any information that would allow him to locate his relatives because they needed authorization to operate on him.
The doctor, upon seeing the person’s last name, immediately related him to his friend Daniela, in view of this, called her cell phone and consulted her. She, trying to control her emotions, corroborated that it was her brother and asked him to act quickly, that she would be on her way.

-What happened Daniela?” asked Thiago, worried about her, when he saw her disheveled face.
-They just took Christopher to the hospital, badly wounded, they presume, they wanted to rob him and he resisted – she answered – He is very bad – she said, crying uncontrollably.
-God! Let’s go over there,” requested her husband, “Don’t say anything to your parents until you are sure that it is really him and in the condition he is in,” advised Thiago, hugging her to calm her down.
In less than twenty minutes, the two entered through the emergency door to the room where he had been isolated. They both realized that it was Christopher and that his condition was very delicate. Thiago, as a surgeon, was in charge of operating him.
The surgery, for Daniela, was the longest of all her life. She was outside the ward waiting for Thiago. She preferred to wait for the result before talking to her parents. Besides, she needed her husband, so that he could explain the result of the surgery.

Meanwhile, in the restaurant, the manager of the restaurant and Christopher’s acquaintance, had denounced the case to the public authorities, in addition to having consigned the videos that demonstrate how the events occurred.
The security guard was temporarily suspended from his job and taken to the police station for further investigation. This is due to the fact that he should not have left the parking lot alone on that side, because they are responsible for the integrity of the clients and their property.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

At the same time, at the hospital, after the surgery, Thiago went directly to the preparation room before the ward, where his wife was waiting for him, in tears.
-What, what, what happened, my love? How is my brother? she asked, anguished and with a trembling voice.
-Calm down! Everything is under control. The operation was a success, let’s wait for his evolution, but we managed to stop the internal bleeding he had,” he assured her, hugging her and whispering in her ear, “I assure you the danger has passed!
-Thank you, my life! -She cried, hugging him, “Let’s go to the house, to tell mom and dad what happened.
-Yes, honey, let’s go! -He replied, leaving one of the members of his team in charge of Christopher’s monitoring, as well as his transfer to the ICU. He looked at the time, it was going to be four in the morning and he had to return to start his shift at seven.

Once he was moved up to ICU, because with this he would have constant monitoring by a doctor, they went out to the mansion to talk to Maddie and Ozzi. They were kind of shocked. Immediately, the two changed and left for the hospital.
The news about the assault on Christopher, leaked on the networks, in the early hours of the morning, precisely because of the complaint made by the manager of the restaurant. All the media reported that after an intimate dinner with some friends, he apparently suffered a robbery.
Amber, upon reading the news, was dumbfounded, as were Genesis and Elian, who could not locate him after he left him standing in the parking lot of the restaurant. He felt guilty for not having waited for him to leave the place together.
It took only a few minutes for Elian to arrive at the hospital and ask for information about Christopher.
He is stable, he is in the ICU, because there he maintains medical presence twenty-four hours a day. He is waiting for his surgeon who should not be long.
-Who operated on him?” Elian asked, worried, ashamed and regretful of his carelessness with him.
His brother-in-law, Dr. Thiago Guillen,” he answered.
-Thank God!” replied Elian, calmer.
“Is there anyone with him? -he asked.
-No, this is a restricted area! Only authorized personnel are there. Thiago will decide when he will be taken down to a room, so that he can be visited,” assured the doctor, saying goodbye to him, because he had been called.

Meanwhile, in his mansion, Dylan Lugo was happy, celebrating the news about Christopher’s robbery. However, he kept his hands in ice inside a large plastic container, to eliminate the swelling he had in them.

On the other hand, Amber, as soon as she recovered from the shock of the news, decided to contact her friend Genesis, to obtain more information about Christopher.
-Amber, I still can’t believe it. The one who is really upset is Elian, and he feels guilty for having left him alone in the parking lot, because it seems that’s where he was mugged,” she commented.
-But what about him, how is he?” asked Amber, dismayed with the news, “Where is he?” she asked again, looking out the window of her room that was beginning to lighten up the day.
-They have him in the hospital, near the restaurant, he presented an internal hemorrhage, reason why they operated him in emergency, but apparently, he is out of danger,” commented Genesis.
-I’m going there to see how he is, I need to know about him,” said Amber, desperate and praying to God for his life.
-Well! Let me know. His iPhone seems to have been stolen, at first it was ringing, but now it’s totally turned off. I’ll come when I leave, at the end of the workday, I can’t neglect the office, because Elian is with him.
-Okay! I’m on my way,” Amber announced, worried and anxious, “Any eventuality I’ll let you know,” she assured.
She went down to the parking lot and left in her own car. When she arrived at the hospital, she found Christopher’s parents, his sister, brother-in-law and Elian. Elian walked toward her, greeting and thanking her for her presence.
-Your presence will help Christopher,” Elian said excitedly…
