Stella was squatting down beside the emergency ward when Clarence arrived at the hospital. She curled up and was looking down.

Clarence pouted and approached Stella. He knelt as well, “He’s going to be fine.”

Stella raised her head and looked at Clarence when she heard Clarence’s voice. Her eyes were swollen and red.

Clarence stroked Stella’s hair and pulled her into his arm. Then, he continued to stroke her back.

At the same time, the signal light in the emergency ward went off, and the door opened.

Stella quickly stood up and wiped away her tears.

A doctor walked out of the emergency ward and said, “You’ve sent the kid here in time. He is now stabilized.”

Stella finally felt relief. Before you could relax, the doctor continued, “But his condition is complicated. He’s stable now but…”

Stella froze when she heard what the doctor said. Her nose stung, and she was choking with sobs, “But what?”

Clarence stood aside, and he looked tense.

Noah was lying on the bed, and he was breathing shallowly. His fists clenched, and he had rashes all over his body. He didn’t feel comfortable in his sleep.

The doctor said, “This is the first time we’ve seen such a condition. We weren’t sure what’s the course of the symptom. All we can do was to stabilize his condition.”

Stella stared at Noah and muttered, “You’re saying that what happened today could happen again in the future?”

The doctor nodded, “Yes, and if we couldn’t find the source of his condition in time. He might get worse.”

Stella’s knees felt weak. She almost fell to the ground.

Clarence hugged her shoulder and supported her. He looked at the doctor and asked, “What could possibly cause his condition?”

“We’ll have to discuss with the specialist before giving you an answer. We’ll revert to you latest by tomorrow morning.”

“Alright.”

“I’ve got to go now. Please, observe him tonight. Call us if there are any changes.”

Clarence helped Stella to sit on the couch by supporting her by her shoulder after the doctor left. Then, he said, “Stay here. I’ll come back soon.”
