Jarvis quipped with a grin, “If I wasn’t smart, how could I possibly be good enough for your
granddaughter?”
“Off you go then” Grandpa Augustine waved him off.
No sooner had Jarvis stepped out, the door to Comelia’s room swung open.
Grandpa Augustine quickly headed towards Cornelia’s room Over the past period, Comelia’s condition
had not only not improved, but had worsened. Her face was covered in red patches, the whole of it,
looking utterly terrible.
Greatly worried, Grandpa Augustine asked “Nelly, didn’t the doc give you any meds? Why are you
getting worse?”
Dr. Charlie answered, “Grandpa Augustine, due to Nelly’s condition, we can’t just give her any drugs
now. We’ll have to endure it with her It’ll pass soon”
Dr. Charlie had just tested Cornelia with a pregnancy test strip. The two red lines on the strip, indicating
positive, pretty much confirmed that Comelia was indeed pregnant
Comelia was pregnant, and the medicine Dr. Lester prescribed had hormones, which pregnant women
couldn’t take. Dr. Charlie wasn’t well–versed with allergic reactions, so he suggested Comelia to tough
it out, and it would get better.
“What sort of condition doesn’t allow for taking medication?” Grandpa Augustine asked.

Or Charlie Comelia, itchy and scratching at her neck, scratched out two bloody marks, I’m not refusing
to endure, it’s that I can’t. Grandpa Augustine, I’m feeling awful, so breathless, please take me to

Before she could finish her sentence, Comelia feebly copsed onto the floor. Fortunately, both
Grandpa Augustine and Patricia were by her side and managed to catch her in time.
“Jarvis! Grandpa Augustine shouted out.
Jarvis immediately dashed in, opening his arms to scoop up Cornelia around her waist, “I’m taking
Nelly to the hospital right now.”
He was strong and fast, and quickly disappeared out the door with Cornelia in his arms. Patricia was
momentarily stunned before she thought to follow.
Grandpa Augustine shot a nce at Dr. Charlie, coldly saying, “If anything happens to Nelly, none of
you Hartleys will get away with it!”
By the time Cornelia was rushed to the hospital, her face had turned a ghastly shade of blue. They
pulled some strings to get her into the emergency room. After a series of frantic efforts, they barely
snatched her back from the jaws of death.
ording to the attending physician in charge of her treatment, she had suffered from severe allergic
reactions which led to her respiratory distress. Had she arrived at the hospital a few minutester, she
might not have made it. For now, Cornelia’s life had been saved, but her body was extremely weak.
She needed to be observed in the ICU for a while,
Upon hearing that Cornelia was out of danger, Grandpa Augustine, who had been waiting anxiously at
the doors of the ER, let out a sigh of relief. He then turned to Granny Luisa beside him, “Granny Luisa, I
think you owe me an exnation.”
Upon hearing of Comelia’s fainting, Granny Luisa had also rushed to the hospital. Like Grandpa
Augustine, she was extremely worried while Cornelia was in the emergency room.
Now that Comelia was out of danger, Granny Luisa also let out a sigh of relief, as if she had just
ovee a serious illness, “I owe you an exnation for this.”
Although Granny Luisa seemed kind and friendly in daily life, when it came to crucial moments, she
could make people like Dr. Charlie tremble with just a nce, “You two,e with me.”
Dr. Charlie and Patricia immediately followed.
Dr. Charlie lowered his head, “Granny Luisa, I was worried that the allergy medicine would harm the
baby in Nelly’s belly, sol stopped Patricia.”
Granny Luisa red at Dr. Charlie, “You’re worried about the baby getting hurt? You don’t even care
about Nelly’s life? Do you think that an undeveloped fetus is more important than Nelly’s life?”
