Chapter 59

Chapter 59



Feeling the cold rush of liquid into my veins and catching the distinct scent of antiseptic, I instantly knew I was in the hospital. Maybe the stress over Jade's situation had weakened me further. I was prone to nosebleeds and fainting spells lately.

No wonder the doctor insisted I needed someone by my side. Without Jade, I probably would have been a goner several times over.

When I finally opened my eyes, I saw Jade had dozed off beside me. I struggled to reach for a glass of water, but a forceful hand beat me to it, handing it to me.

"Awake? How are you feeling?" Vinson's large hand rested on my forehead, its warmth easing my dizziness.

After gulping down some water, I felt a bit more energized.

Jade suddenly looked up, her hair a mess. "Melanie, why did you faint again? Haven't you been eating right?"

Her voice was hoarse as a raven. I quickly stopped her from speaking further.

"Enough, if you keep talking, you're going to wreck your throat. I'm fine now, aren't I? It's just, you know, the chemotherapy..." I abruptly stopped, realizing Vinson was still there. How could I reveal my condition to him?

Jade awkwardly attempted a smile. "Well, he called, and I panicked... He knows now."

She resignedly bowed her head as if bracing for my scolding.
