Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 653 Gradually Recovering

Since the drugs wouldn't take effect so soon, Elspeth let Yelena lie down to rest while she stayed with her. No matter how the nurse tried to remind Elspeth that she was at risk of getting infected if she stayed, she still refused to leave. "She got infected because of me, so I must stay here and care for her. You don't have to worry about me."

The nurse felt hopeless, but seeing that even her supervisor wasn't worried about Elspeth, the nurse decided not to care either.

Afterward, Elspeth rose to her feet and chatted with the supervisor. "Thank you for letting me give Yelena the drugs. I will keep my word."

When the supervisor heard that, he felt relieved and said, "That's great to hear."

Elspeth smiled and wrote something on a piece of paper. "This is my mentor's number. You can call him if you need anything."

The supervisor's eyes lit up as he nodded with a smile. Then, he left with the paper.

After three days of observation, Yelena was gradually getting better, and the number of fevers she had also gradually decreased.

Elspeth noted all those changes and became more careful with Yelena until a particular day when Elspeth saw tiredness instead of other emotion in Yelena's eyes. She finally felt relaxed.

"I think I'm all good now." Though Yelena's voice still sounded raspy, it was not as frail as before.

"If you think you're almost healed, I'll reduce the amount of medication."

But Yelena shook her head at the thought of that bitter tonic and pleaded, "I don't want to take it anymore. That tonic is so bitter that I can't swallow."
