Chapter 300 The Best News Ever

After several rounds, Christina spat out mouthfuls of water and finally regained her heartbeat.

“Christina, how are you feeling?”

Christina did not respond. She merely opened her eyes slightly before she passed out again.

The muscles on Nathaniel’s arm grew taut. Even though he did not utter a word, the hostility radiating off his body was so immense it filled the entire atmosphere.

He turned on all the heaters in the room. After helping Christina change out of her soaking–wet clothes, he placed his large hand over her smooth forehead. Her body had started to feel hot, and her cheeks were flushing deep red.

Nathaniel’s frown deepened into a scowl. Realizing Christina was running a fever, he picked up his phone and called their family doctor. “Be here in ten minutes.”

After concluding the call, he threw his phone onto the couch.

About ten minutes later. Raymond brought the family doctor to the room. Anxiousness clouded the latter’s face. “Mr. Hadley, the traffic was bad…”

Catching a glimpse of the icy glare that Nathaniel shot him, the doctor swallowed his words and hastily walked inside.

On the bed, Christina was running a high fever. Her brows knitted slightly, and her face was burning bright red. From her looks, it was evident she was extremely unwell.

The doctor took Christina’s temperature and gave her some medicine and an IV drip. “Mr. Hadley, do you know how to change the drip?”

“Yes.” As the heir of Hadley Corporation, Nathaniel had received all sorts of first aid skills from a young age.

“After she’s done with this bottle, change to the yellow one. Then lastly, the glucose drip.” The doctor left after giving a thorough explanation.

The bedroom was so quiet it felt almost as if time had stopped.

A warm, golden light lit the room up dimly. The two nuzzled against each other, with Nathaniel sitting by the bed and holding onto Christina’s burning–hot body.
