Chapter 1278
Jarvis quipped with a grin, “If I wasn’t smart, how could I possibly be good enough for your granddaughter?”
“Off you go then” Grandpa Augustine waved him off.
No sooner had Jarvis stepped out, the door to Comelia’s room swung open.
Grandpa Augustine quickly headed towards Cornelia’s room Over the past period, Comelia’s condition had not only
not improved, but had worsened. Her face was covered in red patches, the whole of it, looking utterly terrible.
Greatly worried, Grandpa Augustine asked “Nelly, didn’t the doc give you any meds? Why are you getting worse?”
Dr. Charlie answered, “Grandpa Augustine, due to Nelly’s condition, we can’t just give her any drugs now. We’ll have
to endure it with her It’ll pass soon”
Dr. Charlie had just tested Cornelia with a pregnancy test strip. The two red lines on the strip, indicating positive,
pretty much confirmed that Comelia was indeed pregnant
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtComelia was pregnant, and the medicine Dr. Lester prescribed had hormones, which pregnant women couldn’t
take. Dr. Charlie wasn’t well–versed with allergic reactions, so he suggested Comelia to tough it out, and it would
get better.
“What sort of condition doesn’t allow for taking medication?” Grandpa Augustine asked.
1, uh… Dr. Charlie started.
Or Charlie Comelia, itchy and scratching at her neck, scratched out two bloody marks, I’m not refusing to endure,
it’s that I can’t. Grandpa Augustine, I’m feeling awful, so breathless, please take me to
the
Before she could finish her sentence, Comelia feebly collapsed onto the floor. Fortunately, both Grandpa Augustine
and Patricia were by her side and managed to catch her in time.
“Jarvis! Grandpa Augustine shouted out.
Jarvis immediately dashed in, opening his arms to scoop up Cornelia around her waist, “I’m taking Nelly to the
hospital right now.”
He was strong and fast, and quickly disappeared out the door with Cornelia in his arms. Patricia was momentarily
stunned before she thought to follow.
Grandpa Augustine shot a glance at Dr. Charlie, coldly saying, “If anything happens to Nelly, none of you Hartleys
will get away with it!”
By the time Cornelia was rushed to the hospital, her face had turned a ghastly shade of blue. They pulled some
strings to get her into the emergency room. After a series of frantic efforts, they barely snatched her back from the
jaws of death.
According to the attending physician in charge of her treatment, she had suffered from severe allergic reactions
which led to her respiratory distress. Had she arrived at the hospital a few minutes later, she might not have made
it. For now, Cornelia’s life had been saved, but her body was extremely weak. She needed to be observed in the ICU
for a while,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon hearing that Cornelia was out of danger, Grandpa Augustine, who had been waiting anxiously at the doors of
the ER, let out a sigh of relief. He then turned to Granny Luisa beside him, “Granny Luisa, I think you owe me an
explanation.”
Upon hearing of Comelia’s fainting, Granny Luisa had also rushed to the hospital. Like Grandpa Augustine, she was
extremely worried while Cornelia was in the emergency room.
Now that Comelia was out of danger, Granny Luisa also let out a sigh of relief, as if she had just overcome a serious
illness, “I owe you an explanation for this.”
Although Granny Luisa seemed kind and friendly in daily life, when it came to crucial moments, she could make
people like Dr. Charlie tremble with just a glance, “You two, come with me.”
Dr. Charlie and Patricia immediately followed.
Dr. Charlie lowered his head, “Granny Luisa, I was worried that the allergy medicine would harm the baby in Nelly’s
belly, sol stopped Patricia.”
Granny Luisa glared at Dr. Charlie, “You’re worried about the baby getting hurt? You don’t even care about Nelly’s
life? Do you think that an undeveloped fetus is more important than Nelly’s life?”
