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.

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

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

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