Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Are You Trying to Murder Your Own Husband?

Amanda instantly caught sight of the bite mark on his ankle as blood oozed out of the wound.

“You’re injured! Was it a venomous snake?” She grew anxious upon seeing that. What if it was indeed a venomous snake? The hospital was quite far from their current location. It would be too late by the time they rushed there for help.

Elias couldn’t help but feel a bit delighted when he saw her getting nervous. He even deliberately. pretended to be in pain and replied, “It does seem like the bite of a venomous snake.”

As soon as he spoke, her eyes widened in fear. “Really?! What should we do? We need to call an ambulance quickly! Wait, will they come here? What do we do now?”

Amanda was at a loss, unsure of what to do. Was Elias going to die? The thought of him dying made her burst into tears, and her hot, panicked tears fell onto his palm. He looked at her sobbing for him and felt a strange sense of pleasure, so he decided to prolong his enjoyment just a little longer.

“Maybe it’s a cobra,” he added, deliberately scaring her again.

“Cobra?” She became even more agitated upon hearing those words. Cobras were truly deadly! She needed to hurry and take him to the hospital to treat the wound!

Quick, make a call for Yacob to pick you up! Cobras are deadly! We should hurry to the hospital!”

She grabbed Elias’ hand and was about to leave, even forgetting that Baby was still sleeping inside the tent in her worry.

He held her wrist. “What about the child? He’s still sleeping inside the tent.”
