They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 33: Living Chapter 33: Living Nnenna’s mind was clouded, her thoughts barely coherent as the weight of her failing body threatened to pull her into darkness.

Still, she fought with everything she had left.

Her lips trembled, her throat burned, but she forced out a single, faint whisper.

“Yes…” The word was fragile, barely audible, but it was enough.

The system’s relief was almost palpable.

The love system’s notification sounded again, bringing a sense of strange relief.

Ding!

“One thousand good points deducted.

Life extension is now one month.” Director Ikenna “…” Attending doctors “…” Nurses “…” Her family “…” Four “…” Director Ikenna, Four, the attending doctors, nurses and her family, stood frozen, still trying to grasp what had just occurred.

The girl who had been seizing a moment ago, seemingly on the brink of death, was now eerily still, her body relaxed as if nothing had happened.

It was as though the seizure had never occurred.

The attending doctor, Dr.

Chidi, was the first to move.

He rushed to Nnenna’s side, checking her pulse.

It was steady.

A sharp intake of breath escaped him as he placed a stethoscope to her chest.

“Her heartbeat’s stable,” he muttered in disbelief, looking up at Director Ikenna, who had been silently observing, brow furrowed.

Four watched, his mind racing.

He knew Nnenna had somehow defied the odds, but how?

He hadn’t seen such a quick recovery from a seizure before, especially after someone had been as close to death as Nnenna was moments ago.

Dr.

Chidi quickly moved to check her airway, ensuring it was clear and unobstructed.

He performed a visual check, verifying her pupils were responsive to light.
