The Wolf’s Bride by Coffee’s Tea

Chapter 3
A countdown?!

What did it mean?

The Crestfalls and Dr. Artemis looked at Andrius in confusion.

At the next second, someone said, “Look! Look at Master Crestfall!”

Everyone turned around.

Master Crestfall’s body twitched violently again and black blood spewed from his mouth. After spewing a few mouthfuls of blood, his face turned ghastly pale immediately. He fell onto the teak wood bed and lost consciousness.

The Crestfalls were frightened. They cried, “Dr. Artemis, hurry up and check on Master Crestfall!”

“Let me have a look.”

Dr. Artemis immediately checked on Master Crestfall’s condition and performed all the necessary procedures to save the man.

However, no matter how many more needles he poked into Master Crestfall, it did not reverse the condition. Instead, the needles started to mess up Master Crestfall’s blood circulation, causing black blood to seep from his nose.

Dr. Artemis grew so anxious that he sweated profusely and paled.

He realized he had made a terrible mistake! Consequently, his name and reputation would be ruined, and his mistake would claim Master Crestfall’s life!

He collapsed to the ground in disbelief and horror as his hands and legs grew weak.

Then, he suddenly thought of what Andrius said earlier. He turned to the young man immediately.

Andrius barely reacted to the sudden turn of events as if everything was within expectation.

Dr. Artemis got up and went over. He held Andrius’s hand and begged, “Young man, please save Master Crestfall!”

The scene shocked every one of the Crestfalls.

Under everyone’s astonished gazes, Andrius said calmly, “You are the one who claimed you had the experience and were more qualified to save Master Crestfall. Now that Master Crestfall’s life is hanging by a thread, you want me to clean up your mess for you?”

“I…” Dr. Artemis was deeply embarrassed. “I was blind before. Please forgive me and save Master Crestfall!”

“Fine.”
