Chapter 61

Upon regaining consciousness, Madeline found herself in Maple Forest Villa. She noticed the bandage on her wrist was reapplied and the anesthesia may have alleviated the pain of the wound. She sat up and stared confusedly at her bandage as she recognized the technique. It looked exactly the same as she had first awoken that morning! Did Noah take her back to the lab again? Madeline found it difficult to wrap her head around the situation while she was unconscious.

“Ms. Madeline, you’re finally awake!” Andy’s voice disturbed her train of thoughts and she looked toward the direction of his voice, in which she was greeted with the sight of Andy sobbing despite being a grown man.

“Uh, Andy, I know you’re concerned about me, but don’t you think it’s a bit too much for a grown man like you to be crying buckets for me?” Madeline tried to soothe him by giving him a pat on the shoulder.

“Ms. Madeline, you may not realize this but your skin was as pale as a ghost when you were brought back to the lab! I thought something terrible must've happened, but Mr. Quincy and that Felch guy kept me away from you while they stood watch, and here I was so worried about you!”Andy ranted grumpily while lying next to Madeline.

He had never felt so wronged and humiliated! Even as the best doctor in Imperia, he was not allowed to treat Madeline who was injured.

“You’re saying that Noah Quincy and Dylan Felch are here?”

“They were here, but they left five minutes ago. They probably knew you were going to wake up. Hmph, I can’t believe those grown-up men are still keeping up with the anonymous act!” Madeline felt her head spin as she listened to Andy’s grumpy yatter on what had happened. It took a long while for her to finally calm Andy down.

“Stop crying now, Andy. Take a look at the ointment on my wound if there’s anything special about it. I think it somewhat dulled the side effects of the nano ligament!!” Madeline tried to divert Andy’s attention by extending her injured arm for him to inspect.

It worked as Andy composed himself and began checking at Madeline’s wound. Madeline was surprised when Andy’s inspection confirmed her suspicions - the ointment on her wound had substances that could suppress the nano ligament’s side effects - leaving her stunned after discovering this. Did Dylan reach the pinnacle of his medical skills? Andy, on the other hand, was overexcited after learning this and begged Madeline to let him see Dylan.
