Chapter 298 Disappointed

After Edgar collapsed, he kept having a recurring fever. His fever was so serious that he even started talking nonsense while he was unconscious.

They tried everything they could think of to make him better. But he still stayed unconscious. “There isn’t any more Paracetamol.” Miles sweated anxiously.

Jean looked at the face in front of her. Her emotions grew more and more complicated. Why did it turn out to be like this?

“Madam, these are herbs from our village. It can be used to relieve fever. It might work.” The boy who gifted Edgar the windmill came over with a handful of grass in his small hand.

The bearded man chased after him and picked him up in his arms. “What nonsense are you spurting about? This is just our village’s local and traditional method. What if something happens to Mr. Royden after he takes the herb? Are you able to take responsibility for that?”

The boy was frightened. He cried aggrievedly.

Jean looked at the scratch marks on his hands. She got up and walked over.

“That’s the only method we can try now.”

The boy’s tears stopped immediately. He whimpered, “Mr. Royden will get better!”

The bearded man studied Jean carefully and muttered, “Are you his fiancée?”

Jean was thinking about how she should feed Edgar the herbs. When she heard the bearded man’s question, she could not help but smile bitterly. “I used to be his wife.”

This man’s fiancée was still waiting for him to return to the hospital.

Jean’s heart broke a little. She accidentally cut her finger with the knife that she was using to handle the herbs.

When blood oozed out of her wound, she did not feel any pain. After a long time, she finally finished feeding him with the herb.

“Whatever. I’ll just try whatever I can do.” She looked at Miles, who was standing at a side quietly. “Go and have a rest. I will keep a watch first for the first half of the night. If not, both of us will be exhausted.”

Miles opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out of his mouth. He turned around and sat in a corner.

It wasn’t the time to act heroic.
