“Doctor, what’s wrong with Angie? Say something!” Jacob questioned anxiously while grabbing the doctor’s arm.

At that moment, he could not care less about his image. It feels dreadful enough to be tickled, so I know what it feels like to suffer from itchiness. Besides, Angeline’s rashes became more severe throughout the journey from the press conference to the hospital. Who can predict how bad it can get?

“Sir, please calm down.” The doctor shoved Jacob’s hand away, adjusted his glasses, and checked the medical report. “After going through the blood test report, I realize the result is normal. Your condition isn’t some kind of infection. Did you eat something that you’re allergic to?”

Hearing that, Angeline furrowed her brows. “No, that’s impossible. I’ve only drank a bottle of water Mr. McKenna handed me today. There’s no way water would cause an allergic reaction.”

“I suggest you bring that bottle of water here for a test. Other than an allergic reaction, it might be a fungal infection, given your condition.”

Nancy’s expression turned grim when she heard that. “I’ll call the staff of the press conference right away.”

As she spoke, she gave Angeline a reassuring look before she left with her phone in hand.

The doctor let out a sigh. The next second, he filled out a slip and passed it to Angeline. “Get a microscopic examination first.”

Angeline frowned deeply as she could not help scratching her skin. “Can you please prescribe an antipruritic for me first? I feel awful,” she choked out.

Seeing that, the doctor hurriedly stopped Angeline from scratching and explained solemnly, “Ms. Sorelle, we haven’t identified the cause of your condition, so I can’t thoughtlessly prescribe medicine for you. Please bear with it for a while. I’ll give you treatment as soon as we find out the cause of your illness.”

Hearing the doctor’s remark, exasperation inundated Angeline. Left with no choice, she could only go for an examination while enduring extreme discomfort.

Half an hour later, Angeline went to the doctor again with the report. At that point, she was already suffering from an uncontrollable itch all over her body, and she could barely stand while propping her hands on the desk, let alone sit down.
