lan had been waiting anxiously. When he saw her, he felt like he was clutching at a lifesaver.

“Ms. Garcia, you’re finally home! He’s unwell. Please go and check on him!”

Neera quickened her pace and headed straight to Jean’s bedroom.

Jean was sleeping with his eyes closed at the time. He appeared to have dozed off.

She noticed his pale face when she approached him and took his pulse.

His condition was deteriorating, as expected, with signs of another relapse.

“Bring me the first aid kit!”

She gave lan firm instructions. In the meantime, she unbuttoned Jean’s shirt.

Jean had abruptly awoken.

When he opened his eyes, his body reacted instinctively before he recognized the person in front of him. He clutched Neera’s hand tightly.

Evidently, his eyes were filled with hostility.

Neera was taken aback. She endured the sharp pain in her wrist while trying to calm him down. She consoled him, saying, “Hey, it’s me. I’m here to help.”

He recognized her voice, and his gaze shifted to her face. His gaze was hazy before it became profound and enigmatic.

Puzzled, Neera asked, “What happened? Are you having a nightmare?”

Jean remained silent, but the hostility in his eyes faded and calmness took its place.

He finally realized he was grasping her hand tightly. He promptly let go.
