Forbidden Passion

Chapter 430 Phoebe Wakes Up

Phoebe had already caught a bad cold at her old place. Then she got into a car accident, got moved to another hospital, and things got worse, leading to acute pneumonia. They brought her back to Kedora, but her fever wouldn't break that night.

"Why hasn't her fever gone down? It's been two days. Horizon Wellness Hospital is the best in Kedora, and you can't even handle a bad cold?" Theodore snapped.

The doctor, sweating bullets, explained, "Mrs. Reynolds is really stressed. She's stuck in a dream and won't wake up. The fever keeps coming back because she doesn't want to face reality." "What kind of nonsense is that?" Theodore was livid. "You can't treat her, so you make up excuses?"

Seeing Theodore's angry face, the doctor felt wronged but didn't dare argue. He said, "We'll give her more medication."

"I don't care how you do it. I want to know when her fever will break and when she'll wake up," Theodore demanded.

"If you can't do it, get me another doctor. Don't delay her treatment." Seeing Phoebe's feverish cheeks, Theodore was both angry and heartbroken.

He rarely saw Phoebe so weak. Over the past three years, even when sick, she'd push herself to work.

Phoebe always stayed on the job. Even with a fever, she'd work late into the night. To Theodore, she was a tireless workaholic.

He never thought he'd see her so weak and helpless in bed.

The doctor blushed and quickly went to find another doctor.

Theodore sat by the bed, gently brushed Phoebe's hair back, and said, "Phoebe, you've slept too long. You should get up and move around, or you'll get stiff."

He held her hand, kissed it, and looked at her with gentle affection.

There was a knock on the door. Theodore frowned. "I said not to disturb us unless necessary. Mom, why are you here?"

He saw Taylor in a wheelchair at the door. He let go of Phoebe's hand and stood up.
