Chapter 1609


    As soon as Jenna sat down, Raeleigh noticed her nervousness. Jenna stared at Louisa as she held


    her hands tightly as if she was praying for a miracle.


    "Auntie Jenna, don''t worry. Louisa is skilled; she was able to cure Zorion''s gastric problem after


    several acupuncture sessions when none of the doctors could." Raeleigh went tofort Jenna.


    Jenna raised her head slowly and said to Raeleigh, "Thank you, Raeleigh. I''m really on the verge of


    breaking down. The doctors all told me he will never be able to wake up."


    "Those people were too cruel. How can they do that to him?"


    Raeleigh sat down, holding Jenna''s hand as she said, "Santiago''s blessed, Auntie Jenna. We can''t


    give up now. You can rest assured that it will be alright."


    "Raeleigh, I know he means a lot to you, and I''m grateful for that," Jenna said with teary eyes.


    Raeleigh said, "This only happened to Santiago because he went looking for me. Otherwise, with


    his intelligence, he wouldn''t have fallen into the trap."


    "I''m responsible for what happened to him; I can''t walk away. This is what I should do. Trust me,


    Auntie Jenna, I will wake him up; I refuse to believe he''s okay with parting from us."


    "Thank you, Raeleigh!"


    Raeleigh just smiled. She knew that the hardest thing for a mother was losing her child, unable to


    do anything forthem.


    "Alright."


    Louisa moved away, wiped her hands, and tucked Santiago in. Jenna immediately turned her gaze


    to Louisa as she walked toward Jenna, saying, "His considerably alright. Although he isn''t showing


    any signs of waking up, I can still try."


    "Could you?" Jenna didn''t want to plunge herself too deep into Santiago''s condition to the point that


    she would neglect everything else, but she really couldn''t focus on anything else.


    "A vegetative patient is not dead; they may wake up. We just need to find the right treatment. But it''s


    not a guarantee; I can only try."


    "Alright, do what you need to. If you need anything, tell Raeleigh. He''s in your hands."


    "Alright."


    Louisa turned back to look at Santiago for a while and began searching for treatments.


    Jenna held Raeleigh''s hands and asked, "Raeleigh, can he really recover?"


    "I believe he wouldn''t leave without saying a word."


    Jenna looked at Raeleigh. "I hope you''re right."


    Jenna stayed over the entire day; she even stayed for dinner. It was only then she learned the


    details of Johan''s death.


    "Johan had been wise all his life; I didn''t expect this to be his ending. He left with regrets, didn''t he?"


    "Flynt won''t leave me be no matter what. We can only seek refuge in your ce now," Colston said,


    and Jenna replied, "Don''t worry about it. There are plenty of rooms here; you can stay as long as


    you want. I''d like to see if that fellow has the guts to cross our gates."


    After dinner, Jenna took a look at Santiago before following Raeleigh out of Green Jade Garden.


    When she arrived at the door, she talked with Raeleigh for a while and then left.


    Raeleigh was about to go back when she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around only to be


    stumped by who she saw.


    Jepherson stood a few feet away from her, carrying a bag of fruits in his hand.


    Seeing Raeleigh, Jepherson said, "I came to see


    Santiago." "Come in then."


    Raeleigh walked toward Green Jade Garden, and Jepherson followed right behind.


    When they reached the courtyard, Jepherson paused for a moment and looked around. "Everything


    done?"


    "Yeah."


    Raeleigh wasn''t in the mood to talk.


    Jepherson followed her to Santiago''s room, still carrying the fruits. Entering the door, he saw


    Colston and Louisa standing inside.


    "Mr. Richards."


    "Never mind me."


    Jepherson put the fruits down and looked at Santiago before turning to Louisa and asked, "How is


    it?"


    Stumped, Raeleigh was baffled that he knew Louisa was here to treat Santiago when she had


    never told him.


    She didn''t even tell Xanthus about it until they moved in.


    Xanthus entered the room and walked to Raeleigh, staring at Louisa. Everyone seemed to be


    waiting for Louisa''s answer.


    "I can try, but I can''t guarantee he''ll wake up."


    After all, Louisa had never met such a patient, and she could not guarantee what would happen.


    If it worked, he would wake up. But what if he didn''t?


    "Thank you."


    Jepherson thanked everybody and looked at Xanthus. "You''re helping too, aren''t you?"


    "I''ll be with Louisa during this period. After all, this is Santiago." In other words, Xanthus was here


    for Santiago and not him, and he didn''t need his thanks either.


    Jepherson didn''t say more but only directed his gaze at his brother. "I''ll leave the treatment to you


    guys; I''ll take care of my brother personally."


    After some thought, Raeleigh said, "You can stay, and you can take care of him, but you can''t bring


    anyone else with you."


    "Don''t worry. The ce is yours now, and I''m your guest; I''ll do as you say."

    With that, Jepherson left the room only to return a few minutester. The servants had brought his


    luggage over and ced them at the door; he brought it in himself and finished unpacking in no


    time.


    Raeleigh didn''t expect that Jepherson would move in so quickly and quietly.


    Raeleigh stayed by Louisa''s side the entire time. Louisa put a few acupuncture needles on Santiago


    to test his reaction, only to get no response from him.


    Raeleigh''s nervousness grew, and Louisa reminded, "Rx. You''re pregnant; it won''t do the baby


    well if you''re tense."


    "I''m just rxing his muscles and testing his nervous system. I''ll gradually increase the intensity. I


    don''t know how much he can bear yet, so I don''t dare to put too much pressure on him."


    Raeleigh gasped. "Are you saying he can feel pain?"


    "Yes and no. Some even believe that the dead could feel pain even after they stopped breathing.


    What''s more, he is a vegetable. It''s just that his brain is weakened, but he can still feel pain."


    As Louisa exined, Xanthus added, "It''s amon belief in the medical field. It''s just that the


    cranial nerves die when the person dies, and the person will no longer feel pain."


    "In this case, few people cared about whether the dead still felt pain."


    "When we talk about pain, we''re referring to human nerves." "The nerves in our body can survive for


    another four days even after we die." "There are even cases when the hair and nails of the dead


    would continue to grow after several days into their death. This is why there are stories about


    zombies."
