Chapter 678 Loud Discussion

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Silas reached home at dawn the next day and reported everything to William.
“Did Gonzalec and Devon’s men came back as well?” William asked.
“They came back on the same flight as me. They’re probably on the way to meet Devon with the blood vermin and croton antidote,” Silas answered with a smile.
“That’s good! We’re finally getting to the interesting part,” William smiled and dismissed Silas because he was worried that he would be too tired, “You’ve worked hard, so you can go and rest!”
“I’m not tired, I already rested on the plane,” Silas replied, “Sir William, do you want me to go to the hospital to inquire about it?”
“You don’t have to, I’ll arrange someone else to do it.”
Since William insisted that he rested, he left.
William called Bobby and said, “Arrange two people to go to the hospital to check out the situation.”
As he was on the phone, Valeria rubbed her eyes and opened the door, “Honey, what are you doing again?”
“You’re up? I arranged for someone to check out the situation in the hospital,” William said as he went over and hugged her by the waist. She was still a little confused, “What situation?”
“Silas has returned, and Natasya’s antidote has been brought back. We’re finally getting to the interesting part!”
“Will she be puking non-stop? I want to go and see as well,” she became excited.
“Don’t try to join in the fun,” he said with a helpless smile.
“I’m not! I’m going to have a checkup with my gynecologist today. Have you forgotten?” She reminded him, “Natasya transferred to my hospital after you arranged for people to mess with her, and I coincidentally have my checkup today, so I’ll take a peak at the situation!”
“You’re really something!” He looked helpless as she chuckled and said, “Yay! Let’s go to the hospital right now.”
“We’re going after breakfast,” he reminded her.
“I have to go to my checkup with an empty stomach. If we go now, we can check out the situation after my examination and kill two birds with one stone!”
Seeing that she was in a hurry, he shook his head and called Bobby, “Help me make arrangements to the hospital with Valeria for her checkup.”
After Devon’s men took the blood vermin and antidote out of the airport, he parted ways with Gonzalec and reported to Devon.
Although Devon spent a lot of money, he was satisfied to finally get his hands on the blood vermin and antidote, and he immediately took the antidote to the hospital to find Natasya.
Walking to the door of the ward, he heard her screaming in pain from inside, as the bacterial drug in her body began to act up again.
She tossed and turned in pain on the bed. Seeing this, he immediately gave her the fake antidote.
She cried out the pain for a while after eating it and slowly calmed down.
The bacterial drug in her body was almost completely washed out through excretion, but Devon and Raelyn thought that her condition had improved due to the antidote, so they sighed in relief.
Unexpectedly, in less than an hour, she began to vomit continuously.
Devon and Raelyn were dumbfounded and extremely worried, “Honey, is there a problem with the antidote?”
“No way…” Devon was not sure, “I heard my grandfather talk about it when I was a child, and it seems that there will be such an effect. Maybe this is a normal reaction after taking it?”
“But this is too… Let’s ask the doctor to check up on her,” Raelyn was very worried.
“If this is the normal reaction towards the antidote, will the doctor’s prescription make it ineffective?” Devon was also in a difficult situation. If Natasya’s vomiting was normal, would the doctor’s treatment reduce the efficacy of the antidote’s treatment?
“Ask Gonzalec about it! This is making me too anxious,” Raelyn urged.
Devon had no choice but to call Gonzalec. He listened to Devon and soon replied with certainty, “This is normal, don’t worry about it because she will be cured soon. My father told me that the antidote my grandfather gave to people caused effects like these. It’s alright, don’t worry!”
After hearing his affirmative reply, Devon and Raelyn didn’t care about it and silently watched Natasya throw up, until she couldn’t support herself and fainted in the bathroom.
Seeing her faint, they realized that something was wrong and immediately called the doctor.
She was unconscious, but her excretion did not stop. Her body kept excreting wastes, and the doctors and nurses covered their noses while sending her to the emergency room.
Along the way, all the passers-by cast glances at them. Devon and Raelyn, on the other hand, had no time to think about them and waited outside the emergency room.
Time passed by, but Natasya hadn’t been push out yet, so Raelyn couldn’t help but feel anxious, “Honey, is she gonna be alright?”
“She will be!” He said comfortingly, “Natasya is a lucky child, so she will definitely be able to survive.”
“God bless her! She’ll be fine!” Raelyn prayed with her palms together. Unexpectedly, she heard teasing laughter from some people who were a few feet away from them, “Oh my goodness, did you hear about it? Natasya Anderson, the daughter of the head of Ruthorham, was hospitalized here. They said that she pooped and peed all over herself, it’s so funny!”
“Really? That’s so embarassing!”
“I know right! The doctors and nurses who were tending to her had to close their noses and mouths in disgust. So many strange things are happening this year! Could you ever have imagined such a scene? The daughter of a rich family being covered in her own sh*t! If this news were to spread out, it will be a great headline, won’t it?”
“Yes! What kind of behavior is this? How did it turn out to be like this? A girl like her covered in her own poop… It’s so funny!”
Hearing these comments, Raelyn furiously looked at the people who were busy talking, “What are you talking about?”
“It’s none of your business!” They also glared at her, and continued to provoke her, “I heard that Natasya has always claimed herself to be a talented and popular woman, and the prettiest girl in Ruthorham! But now, she’s the sh*ttiest girl in Ruthorham!”
Raelyn stomped her feet furiously “Shut up! All of you, shut up!”
“Why are you stomping around? It’s none of your business!”
The people provoked her directly, so Devon had to hold her down and shook his head at her. She knew what he meant, so she suppressed the anger in her heart and resentfully walked to the side.
However, the people did not leave and continued to talk loudly, “Poor people from the countryside could never act like true royalty. Look at how they raised their children! I guess this is what they mean when they say that children grow up to be like their parents.”
“Yes, I can’t believe Raelyn willingly married a poor countryside boy like that, she’s too disgusting!”
“I know! I heard that both mother and daughter are jerks, and they even had the audacity to steal someone else’s boyfriend. Raelyn is truly shameless to help her daughter steal her brother’s daughter’s boyfriend. I also heard that she angered her father and was expelled from the house.”
Raelyn felt like vomiting blood after being publicly humiliated like that. Fortunately, the nurse finally pushed Natasya out of the emergency room, so she and Devon followed them in a hurry.
Even after they walked a long distance away, they could still hear the endless discussion behind them.
