Regretting the Wife He Threw Away

Chapter 305

Mr. Chadwick handled everything, arranging for a private jet to fly them straight to Silverlake City.

By the time they landed, dawn was already breaking on the second day.

The hospital had been notified in advance of their arrival.

Without delay, they went directly from the airport to the city's most prestigious private hospital.

While Julia was still unconscious, the medical team conducted a full examination.

They had expedited everything-most test results would be ready the same day, though a few lab reports would still take a couple of hours at best.

Julia was settled into a VIP suite for the time being.

She hadn't been in the room for long when she woke up.

The moment Julia saw the unfamiliar surroundings, she completely lost control.

As Briony tried to calm her, Julia bit down hard on her hand, leaving deep, bloody marks.

Julia sobbed and cried incoherently. No one could soothe her.

She didn't recognize anyone. Her eyes were wide with terror, filled with a fear of the world around her.

Dr. Teague, the psychiatrist, suggested administering a sedative.

Ferdinand's voice was firm. "She's already had anesthesia twice on the way here. No more sedatives. Her liver and kidneys aren't functioning well-she can't metabolize them."

Dr. Teague protested, "But there's really no other option. For someone in her mental state, any more stress could be dangerous."

"Let me try something," Ferdinand said, pulling out his phone and calling his assistant. "Gifford, bring up my acupuncture kit."

"Acupuncture?" Dr. Teague eyed Ferdinand skeptically. "You think that'll work?"

"It's worth a shot," Ferdinand replied, then turned to Briony, his gaze gentle. "Ms. Kensington, do you trust me?"
