When Ricardo drove to Rome, it was already the middle of the night.

Although his Italian driver's license is not yet available, he can't do so much at this time.

Although the doctor said that Stella was not in danger of life, Ricardo did not dare to take it lightly. As for tomorrow's game...... We'll talk about it tomorrow.

When he arrived at Umberto Hospital, Ricardo asked at the front desk that Stella was in operating room No. 4, and hurried upstairs to the front of operating room No. 4 as fast as possible.

The lights are still on, and the operation continues.

Ricardo did not dare to rush in, and waited anxiously at the door for a while, until a little nurse with freckles passed by, and Licardo grabbed her like a life-saving straw, and asked quickly, "Do you know a patient named Stella?" How's she doing? ”

The little nurse tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Sir, please don't get excited." You mean that Brazilian model? She is in surgery. ”

"I know she's in surgery, how is she doing, where exactly is she hurt?"

"I don't know the situation," the little nurse said apologetically, "I'll check it out for you." ”

Ricardo had no choice but to let go.

The little nurse took two steps, then turned back and looked at Ricardo with a slightly puzzled look: "Are you ...... Are you a Ricardo? ”

Ricardo nodded.

The little nurse showed excitement on her face, but she didn't say anything, obviously she knew that this was not the occasion to chase stars, but her steps were a little brisker.

After a while, the little nurse rushed back, her lips obviously repainted with lipstick, and the freckles on her face were covered by the foundation.

"The patient suffered a car accident 4 hours ago, fortunately did not suffer fatal injuries, and it is currently preliminarily judged that he has a slight concussion, a fracture of the left forearm, a fracture of the 4th and 6th ribs, and a slight internal bleeding, so he immediately underwent surgery."

Seeing that Ricardo looked nervous, the little nurse comforted: "In my experience, the patient should not be in danger of life, please wait for the results of the operation with peace of mind." ”

"Thank you." Ricardo breathed a sigh of relief.

The little nurse didn't leave, but looked at Ricardo expectantly, and stopped talking a few times.

Ricardo knew what she wanted, and although he wasn't in the mood to interact with fans right now, he barely pulled himself together and asked with a smile, "Do you need my autograph?" ”

"That's great!" The little nurse clapped her hands and smiled, and immediately took out a small notebook.

Ricardo flipped it open, took the pen she handed him, wrote down his name with a brush, and handed it back.

"Thank you, don't worry, your girlfriend will be fine." The little nurse said.

"I hope so."

"She's still so young, so beautiful, God won't be in a hurry to call her."

Ricardo nodded, "Thank you." He didn't want to talk anymore and sat down in a plastic chair outside the operating room.

The little nurse also stopped bothering and quietly left.

Ricardo covered his face in his hands. Only then did he realize that he was sweating profusely before he knew it.

It's weird. I often think that it would be great if I broke up with her and never saw her again.

But I really encountered a situation where I might never see her, but it was a heart-wrenching feeling, and even breathing hurt.

Looking at the time, it suddenly occurred to Ricardo that it was time to inform Mancini. Tomorrow's game, I will definitely not be able to catch up.

But Mancini should have slept by this time...... Maybe I didn't sleep, maybe I was watching a video.

No, even if he sleeps, you should tell him in time to give him more time to adjust his formation and tactics.

Ricardo pulled out his phone and dialed Mancini's number. Almost immediately, Mancini's voice was tired but clear, and it was clear that he was not asleep.

"Ricardo? What's wrong? ”

"Robert, I'm in Rome and my girlfriend was in a car accident," Ricardo said as succinctly as possible, "I'm sorry, I might have missed tomorrow's game." ”

Mancini was silent for a moment, apparently digesting the news.

After a while, he said "um" and asked with concern, "How is she doing?" ”

"I don't know, she's still in the operating room," Licardo said, "I'll let you know as soon as there's an update." ”

"What if...... Forget it, you can stay with her in peace," Mancini said with a sigh, "I hope she will be lucky and recover soon." ”

"Thank you."

Ricardo hung up the phone, hesitating whether to say a word to Uncle Paul, thinking about it or not. After such a long distance, even if Uncle Paul knew about it, they couldn't do anything, and they were worried about it.

Let's wait until Stella has surgery before telling them.

After about two hours, the door of operating room No. 4 was finally pushed open, and two male doctors walked out, surrounded by several nurses.

Ricardo hurriedly stood up and greeted him, "How is the operation going?" ”

"Please be quiet," a brown-eyed doctor took off his mask, revealing a tired face, and he looked at Ricardo in amazement, "Ricardo?" Are you the patient's boyfriend? ”

"Yes."

The doctor pondered for a moment and said, "The operation went well, the patient's condition is very ideal, he has just woken up once, and now he is asleep again. However, it is best to observe in the ICU for a while during these two days. ”

Licardo's heart tightened: "Why the ICU ward?" Isn't she out of danger yet? ”

The doctor smiled: "At the moment she is not in danger of life. ”

"That's good," said Ricardo, breathing a sigh of relief, "may I go see her?" ”

"Of course," said the doctor, "but she'd better wait until tomorrow morning, for now she needs to rest." ”

"Alright then, thanks."

Instead of staying in the hospital, Ricardo went to a hotel near the hospital to open a room, and after a few hours of sleep, he was woken up by the alarm clock and rushed back to the hospital again, outside Stella's room.

Stella was asleep, as she usually slept at home, except that her face was a little pale and emaciated.

Ricardo looked at her carefully, not missing a single detail. Her chest heaved slowly, slightly, occasionally restlessly. Her left hand, which was in a thick cast, was dangling, and there was a slight bruise on the side of her face, but it wasn't serious. The crash didn't leave a serious scar on her pretty face, at least not to jeopardize her career.

After watching it quietly for a while, Ricardo's stomach squirmed with hunger and he screamed.

But he doesn't have the appetite to go to breakfast right now.

We'll have to wait until she wakes up.

Ricardo had never been so patient, he stared at Stella's eyelashes for 4 hours, and at noon, the beautiful long eyelashes shook rapidly, Stella's eyes finally opened, first looked around blankly, and then his eyes fell on Ricardo and smiled.

She wanted to reach out her hand to say hello, but found that her left hand was hanging and she couldn't move. Ricardo saw her open mouth, but couldn't hear what she was saying.

Ricardo hurriedly called the nurse, who entered the ward and examined her carefully, and came out and said, "You can go in and see the patient." Please do not exceed 20 minutes. ”

"Okay."

Ricardo strode into the room, came to the bedside, and reached out to gently stroke Stella's hair. Stella showed a look of enjoyment, and then said a word.

Her voice was so weak that Ricardo lowered his head and came to her mouth to hear what she was saying.

"I've finally won football once."
