Chapter 1012

Maria watched as the doctor, with a surprisingly deft hand, started to administer an IV to Maja, allowing her to breathe a sigh of relief.

The young doctor continued to speak.

“Has she been overly stressed lately? Make sure she eats well, and her stomach condition can’t be neglected any longer. It needs to be taken care of.”” His fingers gently brushed the sweat from Maja’s forehead, lingering there momentarily.

“She should be fever–free in about an hour. Have the kitchen prepare something stomach–friendly for her. She hasn’t eaten in two days.”

Maria felt a bit perplexed, thinking the doctor’s demeanor was unusually intimate, but upon closer inspection, she couldn’t find anything amiss.

“Doctor, since this is your first time here, be aware that we have surveillance cameras. It’s monitored 24/7”

What she implied was that if he tried to pull anything on Maja while she was gone, he wouldn’t be leaving Rosewood Manor tonight.

The doctor chuckled.

“I won’t ruin a friend’s reputation.”

Maria found his voice incredibly soothing and gentle. With a bit of worry still lingering, she headed downstairs.
