What Separates Me and You

Chapter 911 Don’t Feel Well

Josephine was having a fever.

She was burning up at a temperature higher than she had ever had in the past-108.5°F. The doctor was shocked bevond measure when he saw the number.

The doctor frantically applied physical methods of cooling and administered antipyretic drugs. In short, he gave her all the medication she should be given.

As Lewis stood by the side quietly, his line of sight landed on her wrist.

The skin of her entire wrists was scraped. After her wrists were soaked in water, the red spots were especially apparent. Her skin was pale, so the deep rope burns stood out even more.

After the doctor was occupied for two hours, he saw the temperature on the thermometer had been reduced. He was so exhausted that he collapsed on the chair.

Mr. Alvarez, her fever has been reduced. Her temperature is now 102.2°F. Let’s see if she would burn up again at midnight. If her temperature doesn’t increase, she’ll be fine.”

Lewis nodded, then he asked, “Does she have any other injuries on her body?”

The doctor was stunned when he heard that. He was so busy cooling Josephine down earlier that he had not noticed.

“I’ll check again,” the doctor said. At first glance, he saw the injuries on Josephine’s wrists.

He took Josephine’s hands and lifted the covers to look at her ankles.

“It seems like Mrs. Alvarez had been tied up before. These are probably abrasions from struggling. Look at this spot. The rope almost dug into her flesh. She also has bruises. I’m not too sure if she was beaten. It looks like she got them from falling.”

Lewis pursed his lips and stared at the person on the bed without saying anything

The doctor looked at her head and face. “There’re a few wounds on her head. Also, her scalp is bleeding a little. It looks like someone yanked her hair.”

The doctor’s voice gradually became softer as he spoke. What kind of torture had she actually experienced?

He turned back to glance at Lewis. Lewis’s expression was unreadable, but his gaze looked very complicated. “Mr. Alvarez…” the doctor called.

“Treat her properly. You’re dead if you can’t cure her,” Lewis said suddenly, and his words frightened the doctor.

The doctor looked at him in a daze. Lewis didn’t look like he was just trying to scare him.

“A-alright. I got it.” The doctor didn’t dare to take a break anymore. He frantically stood up and opened his first-aid kit.
