Chapter 35

When Nolan first returned. Ross and the others assumed his condition hadn't

acted up,

But now, taking a closer look, they noticed his eyes were sull bloodshot, and his face was unusually pale.

Nolan nodded calmly. Itis mind had sented, but his body always showed lingering symptoms after an attack. It made sense that Ross had noticed.

Ross and the others exchanged stunned glances

That fast? How long was it this time?" Ross's voice carried a note of disbelief- mixed with cautious excitement.

Their reaction wasn't without reason. In the past, Nolan's episodes lasted at least three hours at their shortest. The worst ones dragged on for an entire day and night.

But today, it was less than an hour.

Ross suddenly had a thought. His eyes lit up. "Could it be that Lawrence's medicine is finally working?"

Nolan considered it for a moment, then shook his head. "Probably not."

He knew his own condition well enough. He had been taking Lawrence's prescription for nearly half a year. If it were truly working, he would have noticed a gradual improvement-not this sudden, drastic change

This time had been no different. But before the priest could even finish, the pain became unbearable.
