Chapter 650
Thalia instantly grabbed the bedsheet. Initially, she wanted to endure the pain, but that headache
suddenly became more severe.
The moment she tugged at the bedsheet, everything on the bed dropped to the ground immediately.
Seeing the stuff fall by his feet, Spencer furrowed his brows. He bent over to pick them up and
turned around to say something to Thalia, only to see her hugging her head, her face flushed.
Startled, he eyed her and asked, “What''s wrong, Thalia?”
Even though Thalia had an immense fear of pain, she instinctively wanted to resist the pain at that
moment. Refusing to utter any sound, she gritted her teeth stubbornly.
Spencer promptly rushed over and looked at her. “Thalia, tell me. What''s going on?”
“Leave! Just leave!” Thalia said with great effort. Since she was trying her best to resist the pain, her
whole body began to tremble.
Spencer scrutinized her and discovered that her current condition was exactly the same as
Natasha''s that day.
Realization dawned on him. While looking at her, he voiced, “Thalia, listen to me...”
Before he could finish his words, however, Thalia suddenly got up and ran toward the bathroom.
“Thalia...” At once, Spencer chased after her.
Yet, she was one step ahead of him to enter the bathroom just as he arrived at the doorway. With a
swift movement, she shut the door, leaving him alone outside.
With that, Spencer became even more worried. As he banged on the door, he yelled, “Thalia, what
are you doing? Open the door!”
However, Thalia leaned against the door before slowly squatting down and sitting on the floor.
Trembling all over, she answered, “I-I''m fine. Y-You should l-leave first...” As she spoke, she
gradually buried her head between her knees.

“You are not fine. Thalia, open the door. Do you know the pain will kill you?” Spencer bellowed.
s, there was no response whatsoever.
“Thalia, hurry and open the door! You''ll be in danger if you do this! Thalia! Thalia, please, I''m
begging you. Open the door, please? Let me have a look... Thalia!”
No matter how hard Spencer shouted outside, there was still dead silence inside.
He then turned the doorknob to try and break into the bathroom, but he dared not exert too much
force, afraid of hurting Thalia because she was leaning against the door.
Hence, he could only pound on the door in a frenzied manner. Afterward, he took out his phone and
called Keh. “Keh, key! Hurry up! I need the key!”
“What key?” Keh''s low voice sounded.
“The key to the bathroom in Thalia''s room. Quick!” Spencer abruptly roared.
Hearing that, Keh was certain that something had happened. “Okay. I got it.”
After hanging up, Spencer threw his phone away and stared at the bathroom door. “Thalia, how are
you now? Can you please answer me?”
“Thalia...” he yelled manically as he mmed his palm on the door nonstop. Even his voice had
turned hoarse from panic.
At that moment, Thalia''s faint voice could be hearding from inside the bathroom. “I-I''m okay...”
As soon as Spencer heard that, he leaned against the door as though he was afraid he had
misheard.
“I''m fine, really...” she said softly.
“How could you possibly be fine? You''re most afraid of pain. Thalia, can you open the door? Please,
I''m begging you...” Spencer continued, “I can help you.”
“I-I''m too ugly now... No.”
“You are not ugly. You''ll always be the prettiest in my heart. Thalia, open the door, please...” He
pressed his head against the door. To him, every second of her locking herself in the bathroom was
torture.
“T-Then can you tell me... you l-like me?” Thalia asked.
“I like you. I like you very much! Thalia, can you open the door? If you open the door, I can repeat
that to you ten, a hundred, and a thousand times!”
However, he got crickets.
“Thalia? Thalia?” Spencer struck the door with his palm.
Not a single sound could be heard.
Spencer quickly swept his gaze across the room. The second he caught sight of a stool, he hurried
over, grabbed it, and smashed it against the doorknob.
He did it again and again.
Unfortunately, the stool was not a good tool, as the doorknob did not budge even after he smashed
it several times. In fact, only scratches appeared on the door frame.
Right then, Keh and Natasha dashed in from outside.
At the sight of that scene, Keh immediately stepped forward. “Spencer, stop smashing it. Here''s
the key.”
Spencer was so anxious that he failed to react in time when Keh handed the key over.
“Hurry up!” thetter yelled.
It was only then Spencer moved forward and took the key with trembling hands before opening the
door.
Keh had no idea what the situation was, so he turned around when the door opened.
The moment the door was unlocked, Thalia fell backward.
Immediately, Spencer went over. “Thalia...”
The woman was convulsing with pain.
At that sight, Natasha stepped forward to strike her in the neck without hesitation. Thalia fainted
right then and there.
Spencer lifted his head to look at Natasha.
“Carry her out first. We''ll talkter,” she uttered.
Spencer fell into a daze. Perhaps he was overwhelmed by anxiety that his reaction became slow.
After hearing her words, he nodded and carried Thalia to the bed.
Once heid her down, he began to examine her.
Meanwhile, Natasha and Keh watched at the side.
A whileter, Spencer halted.
“How is she?” Natasha queried.
“There are only some scratches on her...”
Natasha was well aware that those injuries were formed because Thalia scratched herself to ease
the headache.
In the meantime, an unspeakable sorrow and agony filled Spencer''s heart as he looked at Thalia
lying on the bed.
“I didn''t expect it to happen in the end...” he muttered. “Just minutes ago, she was arguing with me,
but she fell into such a state now. She''s terribly afraid of pain, yet she chose to hide by herself
because she didn''t want me to see her...” His voice even started to tremble.
A hint of guilt fleeted across Natasha''s face as she watched from the side. “Spencer, I''m sorry...”
At that precise moment, Spencer looked up at her. “I''m not ming you; I''m ming myself...
What''s the use of studying medicine for so many years? What''s the point of being capable,
anyway? I can''t even save my beloved...”
“Spencer!” Keh stared at him. “I can understand your mood and sentiments at the moment. I
feel the same as you. But let me tell you this—now is not the time to repent. Instead, we should
prioritize finding a way to synthesize the antidote. Do you understand?”
“The form of the poison is needed for the antidote. How am I going to synthesize an antidote
without it? Even if I seed, do you know how high the risk will be to test it out?” While glowering at
Keh, Spencer enunciated, “Who should try it, then? Is it your woman or my woman?”
Seeing Spencer''s agitated expression, Natasha asserted, “Me, of course.”
Just then, Keh and Spencer shifted their gazes to her.
Keh uttered, “Nat...”
Natasha shot him a nce before looking at Spencer with an impassive gaze. “This matter is
caused by me, so I should try it. I said this a long time ago.”
