"Ah!" Vera was startled and screamed while getting up to help. "Minerva, are you okay?"

That violent reaction from her threw everyone for a loop. Her face was pale from the vomiting; she couldn't even straighten her back. Her forehead was beaded with sweat.

Minerva was not looking good.

Juliette, who was standing at the side, noticed this but kept silent. She turned around and went straight to call the doctor.

"I'm sorry, Minerva. Did I feed you too quickly, I'm sorry... I didn't take into account that you'd just woken up. I should have slowed down." After Vera helped her up, she started tearing up. Minerva's breathing was shallow as she leaned on the pillow and panted heavily. She was obviously struggling to breathe. Vera could only place an arm on her back and pat her lightly. "I'm really sorry. I'll pour you a glass of water, okay?"

"Let her rest for a while." Quill frowned at the scene, and got the janitors outside to clean up the mess. Soon, Juliette came with the doctor in tow. The ward was buzzing with activity.

Minerva looked at the person in front of her.

Vera's eyes were watery and her face was full of guilt and restlessness.

Quill, beside her, also looked a little pale. He looked like he had aged in just a few days; he looked worse than before.

Juliette told the doctor what had happened and the doctor checked Minerva's condition. Then, he spoke to them sincerely.

She felt her ears buzzing. After she threw up, she felt very tired. Her body was too weak. She laid back on the bed and said softly, "I want to rest alone for a while." Everyone was dumbfounded.

Vera sniffed and asked, "Will you be alright alone?"

Quill glanced at her seriously, paused for a while, then said, "Leave her be."

After that, he went out of the ward.
