Chapter 545

After the shot, the monitor maintained a steady reading. Stella helped Daniel out of Arcadia.

The hospital chief had already left, but Bran had arrived.

"Sis, how's the boss doing?" Bran asked.

Stella didn't answer. Instead, she turned to the uneasy Vanessa beside her. "I have some medicine at my place; it'll be easier to take care of him there."

Vanessa wanted to argue that moving a patient around wasn't good, but considering Daniel's condition, she nodded in agreement.

"Good, stay with him more," Vanessa said.

Jasper carried an unconscious Daniel back to the neighboring house, with Bran lending a hand.

Stella followed them out, seeing Vanessa sitting there, dazed, all her energy seemingly drained. She couldn't help but turn back to reassure her, "He won't die."

The words seemed meant for Vanessa, but perhaps more for herself. Vanessa nodded, but her face was already streaming with tears.

Once everyone had left, Vanessa allowed herself to cry out loud, "Oh, Daniel."

Stella cleared a room, brought over a cot from storage, and with the help of the others, got Daniel settled in. She took out some medicine and had Jasper help administer it.
