Chapter 1306
The doctor immediately proposed a solution. The quickest way to bring down Cornelia’s fever was to give her an
injection of antipyretic, but it might harm the baby in her
belly.
Both Grandpa Augustine and the doctor prioritized Cornelia’s health. But Cornelia, in her delirium, kept mumbling to
herself, clutching her belly, “Daddy doesn’t want me anymore, nor does grandma. He left as well. I have nothing
left but this child.”
Cornelia would never say such things when she was lucid. Saying them now meant her condition was really bad.
Grandpa Augustine was worried sick, but he kept his cool. Throughout this time, Grandpa Augustine stayed by

unborn child.
Despite the deep hurt Marcus caused, Cornelia stayed strong. If something were to happen to her child, she might
lose it.
Grandpa Augustine held Cornelia’s hand tightly and turned to the doctor, “Please try to use physical methods to
reduce her temperature. We must ensure both Cornelia and her baby are safe. Neither of them can be harmed.”
The doctor seemed a bit stuck, “But Cornelia’s fever has been high for a while. If we don’t deal with it promptly, it
might…
Grandpa Augustine cut him off coldly, “If you can’t do it, just tell me. I’ll find another doctor, In a big city like the
Capital, I think I can find a competent doctor.”
Although physical cooling wasn’t the fastest method, since Grandpa Augustine insisted, the doctor had no choice
but to try.
While the doctor was busy, Grandpa Augustine, not fully trusting, called in several more doctors. Doctors from all
departments were present, ready to aid Cornelia and her baby at a moment’s notice. Thanks to the doctors’
efforts, Cornelia’s temperature finally dropped to normal by noon,
After the fever subsided, Grandpa Augustine had the OB-GYN doctor conduct a thorough check on Cornelia. Only
after confirming that the baby was fine did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly though, after the fever, Cornelia fell into a deep sleep.
She slept for a whole day and night. Grandpa Augustine, along with a group of doctors, stayed with her throughout.
After a day and night, Cornelia finally woke up. But she, who was once full-bodied, now seemed much thinner.
Grandpa Augustine helped Cornelia sit up, saying, “Nelly, you haven’t eaten for a long time. I’ll have someone bring
you some food now. Try to eat a bit, okay?”

Cornelia nodded, “Okay.”
Considering Cornelia might be hungry after waking up, Grandpa Augustine arranged for a variety of food to be
prepared 24/7.
Just as Cornelia woke up, the kitchen staff brought over an egg pudding. Despite its simplicity, it was actually
carefully prepared by a top chef. But unexpectedly, Cornelia took a taste and immediately threw up. She even had
dry heaves.
After throwing up, she looked apologetically at Grandpa Augustine, “Grandpa, I’m sorry! I really want to eat, but I
just can’t. Everything makes me want to throw up now.”
Grandpa Augustine gently stroked her head, “Nelly, you might be able to go a few days without eating, but can your
baby handle it?”/
Cornelia understood very well what Grandpa Augustine meant. She tried her best to eat more to get some nutrition,
but she just couldn’t take anything. Even the sight of food brought nauseating images to her mind.
