Nathan, you mustn’t overexert yourself anymore, Quincey said. His worry deepened as he noticed Nathan’s pale lips

Given Nathan’s current condition, he should focus on rest and avoid exertion. Staying in Jinston would be best for his health, as the city’s excellent medical facilities could provide immediate care in case of any

emergency

But he couldn’t bear to stay idle or waste precious time recuperating in Jinston. So he brought Zinnia back with him, practically giving up on his own health, just to cherish every last precious moment he could spend

with her.

“Don’t worry. It’s manageable,” Nathan said, massaging his throbbing temples. His voice was hoarse, and his breathing slightly labored.

His chest tightened with each breath, and sharp pain pulsed through him. He swallowed hard, gripping the countertop even tighter as he fought back the heavy ache.

“You’re not feeling well again.” Quincey said. He was exasperated by Nathan’s neglect of his health.

Nathan shut his eyes, his throat burning. He didn’t want to speak.

Quincey glared at Nathan. “Manageable? It means the pain keeps getting worse. You’re in so much agony that you can’t even speak. Nathan, do you even care about your own health? Or are you only satisfied when you work yourself to death?”

Quincey couldn’t help but feel frustrated and angry as he watched Nathan, who was clearly in pain, yet maintaining that calm facade.

No matter how dire the situation, even with his life hanging in the balance, Nathan remained utterly unflappable, never showing the slightest trace of fear.

“Keep it down,” Nathan rasped, the words barely escaping his throat. Each syllable seemed to drain what little strength he had left.

Nathan couldn’t help looking toward the yard. Seeing Zinnia sitting safe and sound outside, he managed a shallow breath of relief.
