Having been deprived of sleep for three days, and with her nerves perpetually on edge, Neera was already at her breaking point.

Avery’s life was hanging by a thread, but she was sustained by a tenacious will.

Now, with her will gone, she relaxed completely, and fatigue swallowed her in an instant.

She was unconscious for a full day and night before she finally woke up.

“What… happened to me?” She stared blankly at the familiar ceiling, her mind a complete blank.

Jean helped her sit up and brought a cup of water to her lips.

“Have you forgotten? After rescuing Avery and bringing him back to life, you fainted at the Cox residence. You should drink some water first to soothe your throat. You’ve lost your voice.”

Neera realized that her throat was hurting terribly as if something was burning inside. Her lips were also dry as if they were cracked, and any movement brought a tearing pain.

She took Jean’s hand and managed to take a couple of sips, but it was so painful that she didn’t want to drink anymore.

The memories before she fainted played in her mind.

She thought of Avery. “How long have I been asleep? How is Mr. Cox doing now?”

Seeing that the first thing she did upon waking up was to show concern for Avery, Jean felt a bit uncomfortable inside.

However, he knew this woman too well. She would take every task she handled seriously, so he did not intend to reprimand her at all.
