Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1136

Emmy’s heart skipped a beat. “What happened to Will?” she asked, her voice tight with worry.

On the other end of the line, Abriella was falling apart. “Will… Will might never wake up…” Her words broke into hopeless sobs.

Emmy felt a chill run through her. “Tell me everything. What did the doctor actually say?”

“The doctor said… whether he wakes up or not… it all depends on these next few days.”

Abriella’s voice trembled. “He said there’s only a fifty percent chance.”

“Emmy, half… that means there’s the same chance he won’t wake up. What am I supposed to do if Will really… if he never…”

She couldn’t finish. She was gasping for air between her cries, completely unraveling.

Emmy took a steady breath, trying to sound calm. “Abriella, listen to me for a second. Don’t cry. Just breathe.”

“Fifty percent means half a chance he’ll wake up. And you know Will. Even if there was only one percent, he’d fight for it. He’s the toughest person I know.”

“If you fall apart now, who’s going to take care of him? Who’s going to sit by his bedside and call him back?”

Emmy kept reassuring her, repeating herself as gently as she could.

It took more than half an hour before Abriella finally quieted down a little, though Emmy could still hear her sniffles over the phone.

When the call ended, Emmy glanced at the calendar.

Three days left until New Year’s.

The Sync2.0 results wouldn’t be out for a while, and nothing urgent needed her attention here.

Emmy stood up. “Penny, get in touch with the private jet company. File a flight plan, now. I need to get to the States border as soon as possible.”

Penny nodded. “I’ll arrange it right away.”

Emmy didn’t waste any time. That very night, she left.

By the time she landed at the border airport, the sun was barely up. The cold hit her the second she stepped off the plane, sharp and biting. The sky pressed down, heavy and gray, making it hard to breathe.
