Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

"You must keep an eye on Ms. Quest. She shouldn't move around too much. If she tears her wound again, she wouldn't be able to bear it. "Also, monitor her emotions, or her recovery would be affected. If things worsen, her wound might get infected. It could put her life at risk." The doctor had a solemn expression on his face as he spoke, releasing a long, helpless sigh after finishing his sentence.

As a doctor in this hospital for twenty years, he'd seen all sorts of cases, but this was the first time he'd encountered something like this.

Sharon Lindt cried as she listened to his advice, ensuring to remember all of it.

After wiping her tears away, she gazed at the doctor. "I understand. Thank you, Doctor. Can I have a word with you?"

He nodded respectfully and left the ward first.

Meanwhile, Sharon wiped her tears away again before following him out.

After closing the door behind her, Sharon said softly, "I can't let this go on for my daughter-in-law any longer. You were right, it's far too dangerous. Why don't we opt for an extreme measure?” "What do you mean?" The doctor had a curious look in his eyes.

"Give her a shot of tranquilizer. It'll calm her down enough to sleep peacefully. Only if it's allowed, of course," she added quickly.

He considered the idea for a few seconds. "All right."

Sharon immediately sighed in relief and returned to the ward to find Xyla Quest staring blankly at the ceiling.

The nurses in the room felt heartbroken on her behalf, but no one dared to say anything under such circumstances.

It felt extremely tense inside the ward.

Approximately ten minutes later, the doctor returned with a bottle of drip fluid that he proceeded to install for his patient.

Xyla closed her eyes and fell asleep approximately three minutes later.

Sharon instantly sighed in relief when she saw her like this.

The doctor did the same before walking over to Sharon, gently patting her shoulder.
