Chapter 366

Jaylen asked Daryl to take the kids to another room. He forced himself to brace himself up and watched them go out.

As soon as the two little ones left, Jaylen dashed to the bathroom and threw up a mouthful of scarlet blood. He held the edge of the sink. His gloomy eyelids drooped, exuding an aura of death. "Dr. Chatterly, Ms. Reese's temperature changed again," Evan's voice came from outside the door.

Jaylen did not reply. The odor of rust remained in his throat. It was sticky, making his head feel heavy. His body felt like it was floating as if he was about to fall down anytime.

However, he could not collapse at this moment.

Jaylen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took out a bottle from his pocket. He poured out a pill and swallowed it.

After all, he was not made of steel. He could only take the unorthodox path to maintain his energy and not delay the development of the antidote.

After a few minutes, Eric urged him again.

Jaylen washed his hands and hurried out. "I'll be right there."

Three days later, in the ward on the top floor of First Hospital.

Perhaps because she had been lying on the bed for too long, Maeve's legs were a little weak when she got off. As she was about to fall, Jaylen reached out and supported her body.

"You haven't recovered yet. There is no hurry. It's better to take it slow." Jaylen held her arm and led her walk around.

Maeve noticed the shadows under his eyes. "You didn't sleep well these days, right? You didn't take my words to heart, did you?"

Jaylen smiled helplessly. "I've had a good sleep. If you don't believe me, ask Daryl. See if I've coughed up blood recently."

Maeve did not doubt his words. She thought that Rudolf's medicine had worked and made him better.

She walked around the ward for a few rounds until she was exhausted before sitting back on the bed, with sweat profusely seeping out of her forehead.

"I've only been lying down for two weeks, and I already feel like I'm about to be crippled," she said self-deprecatingly.
