novelxo Chapter 603 Can You Conceal It?
Sadie calculated the days and realized that ten had already passed. If it had to drag on for another month, Micah would definitely suspect.
After thoughtful consideration, Sadie concluded that she needed to be honest with Micah, have a talk with him, and then remain there calmly for treatment.
In the evening, Olivia prepared the medicine and medical instruments for the bath and then heated the water.
Dr. Henry was outside giving instructions to his apprentice, and then the apprentice left with his luggage.
"Where is the apprentice going?" Sadie curiously asked.
"I need more herbs, but today's supply is running out. I asked him to collect some from other villages." Dr. Henry looked up at the sky. "It's getting gloomy, and it's going to rain; I forgot to tell him to bring an umbrella!" With that, Dr. Henry took an umbrella and chased his apprentice.
Sadie scarcely noticed, absorbed in tidying up the herbs in the yard alongside Brenda. Suddenly, a loud sound echoed from outside.
Before Sadie and Brenda could react, they heard a terrified scream from outside the yard.
Sadie rushed out immediately and found Dr. Henry and his apprentice sprawled on the ground after being struck by an off-road vehicle. The apprentice appeared injured, while Dr. Henry lay unconscious in a pool of blood Olivia was in shock and collapsed to the ground.
"Dr. Henry-" Sadie was about to rush over when several men in black came out of the off-road vehicle and dragged her towards it.
"Who are you? Let me go!" Sadie struggled angrily.
"Let go of Sadie!"
Brenda picked up a broom and charged over, but before she could get close, one of the men in black kicked her down. "Brenda!" Sadie shouted in agitation and struggled desperately.
One of the men in black raised his hand to hit her, but just then, a dagger flew out and stabbed him in the wrist.
The man screamed in pain and fell to the ground.
The other men in black immediately took out their weapons to prepare for a fight, but before they could make a move, they were taken down by the Clemens family's bodyguards.
Rylan rushed forward in quick steps, anxiously asking, "Miss Roth, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Call an ambulance quickly." Sadie was anxious.
"Yes!"
On the mountain, there was only Dr. Henry, an old physician, along with his apprentice and Olivia. Although the apprentice and Olivia had some medical knowledge, Dr. Henry was severely injured, so they could only stop the bleeding and bandage him.
The ambulance arrived from town over half an hour later, and they quickly took Dr. Henry to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Sadie and Brenda followed closely, fearing for Dr. Henry's safety.
After the emergency treatment, Dr. Henry's life was temporarily saved. Still, due to the poor medical equipment, he needed to be transferred to a hospital in the city and was taken there the same evening.
Sadie wanted to follow, but suddenly, the poison flared up. A sharp, intense pain coursed through her body as blood slowly trickled down. She instinctively covered her nose, hoping to evade detection by the Clemens family's bodyguards. Despite her efforts, Rylan still spotted her.
One day later...
Sadie woke up in a spacious and bright ward, and in her blurred vision, she saw a familiar face-- Dahlia!
"Dr. Rey?" Sadie stared at Dahlia in disbelief, thinking her eyes were playing tricks on her. "How did you end up here?"
Dahlia didn't say a word, just nodded slightly.
Micah's tall and slender figure came into view as he was discussing something with a few experts. He turned his head, glanced at Sadie, and asked the others to leave first.
"Micah?" Sadie panicked. "How did you get here?"
"I didn't come. You came back." Micah walked over and sat by her bedside, cupping her face in his hands. "The medical equipment in G city is too outdated, so Dr. Henry was transferred here!"
"Oh..." Sadie felt flustered. She wondered what Micah knew. How much did he know? Could she hide the fact that she was poisoned?
