Chapter 173: Get Lost!

Eric and two other servants, alerted by the same device, followed closely behind him as they hurried down the stairs toward a specific room. Inside, a woman lay on the bed, her chest heaving as she struggled to breathe.

"Aiden! The injection," Eric called, already dialing the doctor.

Aiden was ahead of him, retrieving a small box from the bedside table. The two servants moved quickly, holding the woman steady as her body convulsed.

With practiced efficiency, Aiden inserted the needle and administered the injection. Slowly, the woman’s breathing eased, her body relaxing as the immediate danger passed.

One of the servants placed an oxygen mask over her face and let out a relieved breath. "Her pulse is stabilizing."
