Chapter 127 Nancy Fails Into Coma
Nancy was in a daze, unsure whether she had heard him talk. The only thing she could feel was
Nichs constandy holding her hand and saying something to her, his expression seemingly
distressed and worried.
“Cold… Nichs, I’m cold…”
Without thinking twice, he immediately got under the nket and held her in his arms.
“I’m so cold,” cried Nancy constantly. Her body was shivering non-stop, her face and lips. thoroughly
pale.
Nichs was beyond distressed as he watched her looking so frail. “Don’t be afraid, Sweetie. I’ll be by
your side. You’ll be fine.” He tightened the hug and pressed his cheek against her to keep her
warm.
After persisting for more than ten minutes, Nancy finally felt a little warmer and stopped chanting that
she was cold. Perhaps because she was tired, her long eyshes drooped as she closed her eyes and
fell asleep quietly. Now that her body felt warm, herplexion gradually improved. Her face was not
as pale as before and had turned slightly rosier.
Seeing she had fallen asleep, Nichs lowered his head and kissed her forehead softly. “Sleep tight.
I’ll be by your side.”
It was then that he could finally calm down a little and set his mind slightly at rest. However, he instantly
furrowed his brows tightly and fell into deep concern again when he recalled the scene of her spitting
out blood in the bathroom earlier.
“How’s the road condition? Is the doctor still stuck in traffic?” he asked again.
At this juncture, he could be rest assured only when the doctor came and informed him. personally that
Nancy was fine.
“The traffic has cleared, so the doctor should be here soon.”
“Good.”
Nancy could not sleep well as she kept sobbing in pain.
“Hot… Out of the blue, she cried out while pulling at her clothes, her feet kicking the nket. frantically
and swinging randomly,
Seeing this, Nichs reached out and touched her body. Only then did he realize her body was
burning. At once, he measured her body temperature and was shocked to discover that her body.
temperature had risen to nearly 104 F.
How can this be? Her body was still freezing earlier. But now, she’s suddenly having a high fever.
As he thought of that, he became increasingly anxious that sweat beaded his forehead. Since her
condition was severe, he could only wait for the doctor’s arrival, for he dared not give her antipyretics
rashly.
She kicked away every inch of the nket that was covering her. Yet, she was still sweating fro the
heat to the point that her hair and clothes were soaked in stains of sweat.
“Go and fill the bathtub. The water temperature should be just right-neither too cold nor hot.”
Nichs carried Nancy into the bathroom once the bathtub was filled with water. She felt slightly
comfortable after a bath and changing into a clean, fresh set of clothes.
Perhaps due to her high fever, she was in aplete state of confusion at the moment. Her mind was
fuzzy, and her whole body felt lethargic. She could not even open her eyes even if she wanted.

On the other hand, Nichs was like a cat on a hot tin roof. Fortunately, the doctor arrived at that
moment. After checking on Nancy, the doctor’s diagnosis remained the same: it was caused by the
cold. Only the situation had gotten moreplex and severe this time, which exined why her fever
alternated with chills.
In addition, her body was already weak and had yet to fully recover in the first ce as she had just
gotten discharged from the hospital due to a car ident. Furthermore, her bodycked nutrition from
not eating anything for a whole day, and she even got exposed to cold wind. As a result, the cold
severely attacked her immune system in full fury this time.
eyes and
After taking the cold medicine and having an IV drip, Nancy’s body temperature dropped significantly,
and her body finally felt slightly better. Feeling light-headed, she closed her dozed off. Perhaps
because the medicine had taken effect, she was no longer in pain and slept fairly well.
After a while, Samuel came. When Nichs saw him, he asked the doctor to leave first.
“Check on her,” Nichs spoke first.
Samuel hummed. Then, he ced his medical kit down and walked toward Nancy. After diagnosing her
for a while, he came to the same conclusion as the doctor earlier.
“When will she get better?” Nichs asked, his brows remained furrowed.
“It depends on her condition. If she rests well and replenishes her nutrition sufficiently after her fever
has subsided today, she will recover in three to four days. But if she doesn’t, not only will she not
recover even in a week, but it’s also easy for her to suffer from a rpse.”

“Okay. I get it.”
Once Nancy finished having her IV drip and slept soundly, Nichs turned off the bedroom light. and
left only a wallmp. Then, he tucked her in, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. “I’m going out
for a while. Don’t worry. I’ll be back for you soon.”
When he exited the room, the corming and handsome Samuel was gracefully leaning against the
railing on the cond floor with a tense of abstinence and aloofness oozing all over him. With a pair of
orbs resembling a cheetah, he exuded a growing sense of distancing aura.
Nichs lit a cigarette and handed it to him before lighting one for himself. Shortly after, the space
slowly wreathed in smoke, and the two equally exceptional, good-looking faces became blurry.
“Will you leave again now that you’re back this time?” Nichs was the first to speak.
Flicking the cigarette ashes, Samuel replied, “Not for the time being” He was a renowned surgeon. He
had been studying abroad throughout these years and only returned today after he hadpleted his
training.
“Is she the wife you married two years ago?” Samuel asked.
Only a few close to Nichs knew about his marriage, but since he was unwilling to ep: the alliance
back then, he had only brought it up briefly. Moreover, no wedding photos or ceremony had taken
ce. Hence, Samuel had no idea what Nancy looked like.
It was not until today that he finally saw her in person.
“Yeah.” Nichs nodded.
“Speaking of which, I have yet to congratte you. I shall wish you now. Hap-
Nichs interjected before Samuel could express his congrattory message. That won’t be
necessary” Immediately afterward, he exined, “We’re getting a divorce.”
Samuel’s facial expression returned to normal after a moment of surprise. It makes sense. After all, the
woman Nichs fancies is Madelline. It was Old Mr. Sallow who had forced him to get married in the
first ce. Now that Old Mr. Sallow has passed away. Nichs naturally will file for divorce. So, it’s
nothing to be surprised by
Supposedly to have guessed what Samuel was thinking, Nichs smiled wryly and borated, “She
was the one who adamantly proposed the divorce.”
That’s right. Nancy is very determined to divorce me.She desperately wants to part with me.
“She brought it up?!” Samuel was surprised. “Why?
“It’s hard to exin. Nichs sucked in the cigarette deeply while enveloping himself in hazy smoke.
“Maybe it’s because of Madelline, maybe not.”
“Judging from your tone, you don’t sound like you want to divorce her. But isn’t this exactly what you’ve
hoped for? You can finally be together with Madelline after the divorce, Samuel said. merely expressing
the truth despite not having a good impression of Madelline.
Nichs’ chest felt stuffy for no reason at the mention of her name. After putting out the cigarette in his
hand, he lit another one, sucked in deeply, and breathed a swirl of smoke. Then, he added.
