Chapter 398 No Reaction
Jude did not react at all, and it was as if he had really lost consciousness this time. He stiffened up, and even his breathing got quiet. For a moment, Vania thought Jude would die, and she blanched. “Stop playing around now, Jude.” Her voice trembled. “Wake up.”
The doctor hurried over and checked on Jude, but he pushed the child straight to the operating room. “We’ll have to see what happened to the Little Master, Miss Greyson.”
“Yes, of course.” Vania helped push the bed as well. She did not want to waste any time.
“You’ll have to come with us, President Luke, but you must stop if you can’t hold on.” Anyone would feel wiped out after a blood donation. A consecutive donation might make them dizzy or send them into shock. The doctor was worried, but he had no choice.
“Don’t worry about me. Save the boy.”
“Yes, sir.” The doctor quickly performed a checkup on the boy.
Hanson getting involved again only made things worse for Vania. She stayed outside the ward, praying for them. Fortunately, the checkup went well, and they came back out in just ten minutes, though the doctor looked grim. It was like he saw something impossible, and he had no idea how to break the news to Vania.
Vania was already nervous to begin with. The first thing she thought when she saw the doctor’s looks was, Oh no. Something happened to Jude. Am I going to lose my baby? She teared up and asked the doctor in a hurry, “Where’s Jude? What happened to him? Tell me the truth!” Tears streamed down her cheeks, but she did not feel it.
Her tears broke Hanson’s heart. He wiped her tears away and whispered, “Jude’s fine. We just ran into a blip, that’s all.”
Hanson had just wiped her tears away, but Vania started crying again. She said hoarsely, “Really?”
“Yeah.” He nodded.
The doctor finally had an idea how to break the news to her. And so, he stated, “That’s right. Jude’s poisoned, but we have no idea what kind of poison it is. It broke out again just now. That’s why Jude fainted.”
Poisoned? Vania had a lot of questions and she looked at the doctor curiously. “I don’t understand.” I thought the poison’s gone, so where did this come from?
The doctor shook his head. “We haven’t seen anything like this before. We’ve sent for Dr. Sonnet.”
They were talking about April, of course. He was in another operating room when Jude was sent here, so he could not make it. Now, the doctor had sent someone to summon April since he was already done with his operation.
Before long, April rushed over. He did not even change out of his surgical clothes. His brows were furrowed and there was worry in his eyes as he cut to the chase. “Give me the report.” He looked serious, unlike his usual self. His frown got even deeper after he went through the report.
“I think the poison is developed in some sort of lab in secret. It won’t show up in most checkups.” Even April himself did not understand this poison well. He had only seen it before in books. This was the first time he saw it in real life.
