Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 386

In the midst of the turmoil caused by Ava and Edel’s hasty visit, Judith and Eason didn’t give it much thought.

Their primary concern remained Alexander’s condition. Nothing else seemed as crucial at that moment.

Thomas was still in the laboratory, and Susan and Ben stayed in the hospital to keep watch.

Given Alexander’s special status, he was the sole patient in the entire hospital, housed in a VIP ward that resembled a small apartment, complete with several rooms, a kitchen, and a living room.

Judith, worried about Alexander, had been staying in the hospital with him since his admission, never leaving his side.

Eason, on the other hand, often had to leave to handle external matters.

However, on this particular day, he stayed in the hospital, eagerly awaiting Thomas’s results.

After a grueling twenty–four hours in the lab, Thomas, rubbing his sore eyes, finally entered the ward.

Judith stood up anxiously. ‘Dr. Thomas, how did it go?”

Thomas, pressing his temple tiredly, spoke with a sense of weariness. “Compared to the poison that affected Penny, this time’s poison has been compounded with additional substances, making the situation more complex. The medication I provided before was already fortunate enough to sustain the King’s life.”

His serious demeanor left Judith visibly shaken.

She opened her mouth to ask more but hesitated, fearing the answer.

If even Thomas was at a loss, who else could save Alexander?

Was she doomed to watch helplessly as he slipped away?

Tears began to form in Judith’s eyes as she gazed at Alexander’s pallid face.

She regretted the years of stubborn arguments and the cold war with Alexander.

If only they hadn’t wasted those years in silence, perhaps they could have created more memories. together, making the final goodbye less despairing.

Susan, seeing Judith’s state, felt a pang of distress herself and silently took Judith’s hand in hers.

Eason, with a grave voice, asked Thomas. “Dr. Thomas, what about my father… Is there still hope for him?”

Thomas fell silent for a moment before responding. “It’s good that I came in person. Based on the current situation, I’m confident I can extend the King’s life for at least another month. If we can develop an antidote within that time, we can save the King.”

A month.
