Quinn kept vigil by the bedside, watching him receive the IV drip.


    She was alone in the room. So when the first bottle was empty, she wasn''t sure how to rece it with the second one, especially since Kyle was not there. She watched in horror as the IV tube slowly turned red, with blood flowing back from his hand into the tube.


    Seeing the blood, Quinn panicked and clumsily tried to remove the IV needle.


    At that moment, Alexander slowly awoke, his eyes first catching sight of the red IV tube and then the flustered Quinn.


    She held his hand, grasped the needle, and pulled it out directly.


    Alexander was stunned..


    A spurt of blood sshed onto Quinn''s face, and she caught a whiff of the strong smell of blood. Upon closer inspection, she noticed his hand was bleeding.


    Terrified, Quinn reached out and pressed her hand against the back of his, tears welling up in her eyes and beginning to fall.


    She realized that she might have made another mistake.


    On the other hand, Alexander had a minimal reaction. He gazed up at the ceiling, somewhat surprised to find himself waking up alive in the hospital.


    Quinn clung tightly to his hand, pressing it against her chest in an attempt to stem the bleeding.


    She looked up to see Alexander awake, her initial joy quickly reced by guilt.


    Quinn couldn''t bring herself to release his hand or find words to speak. She could only gaze at him with intense worry.


    After a moment, Alexander gently withdrew his hand from hers. With his other hand pressing on his wound, he turned to look at Quinn.


    In a weak voice, he said, "Call the doctor."


    Quinn nodded, stood up, and hurried out to fetch the doctor.


    Alexander''s lips curled into a faint smile as he watched her frantic form. A weak, bitter grin spread across his pale face.


    He steadied himself, forced his body to sit up, and pressed the call button by the bed.

    When the doctor and Kyle entered, they were shocked to find what appeared to be a crime scene. Blood was sttered on the floor, the bed, the IV bottle, and the discarded needle on the ground was still dripping blood. "Mr. Kennedy, did you pull this out yourself?" Kyle asked.


    Alexander leaned against the headboard, watching Kyle with an expressionless face, not responding to his question.


    The doctor was also anxious. "Mr. Kennedy, you are not taking your health seriously. Do you know how dangerous this is?"


    "Stop the nonsense," Alexander interrupted impatiently.


    Quinn walked in, bringing a nurse with her. She was surprised to see the doctors they had left earlier had returned. Quinn looked embarrassed as she nced at the nurse beside her.


    Sensing the situation, the nurse realized she was not needed, greeted the doctor, and then left.


    The doctor stopped talking and began to change the IV drip for Alexander.

    At this point, Alexander was too weak to resist. He leaned against the headboard, allowing the doctor to do as necessary.


    The doctor instructed Kyle to closely monitor Alexander. Without any unnecessary conversation, Kyle cleaned up the remnants on the floor and then exited the room. Now, Kyle didn''t dare to leave alone. He and Quinn stayed together, keeping watch over the room.


    "Mr. Kennedy, how are you feeling now?" Kyle asked.


    Alexander closed his eyes and said faintly, "I won''t die."


    A twitch appeared at the corner of Kyle''s mouth. He thought to himself, ''Alexander always says this. If he were truly dying, he wouldn''t be able to say it.''This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    Quinn still had blood on her face and clothes, making her look quite rming.


    Alexander opened his eyes, looked at her for a moment, and then said, "Take her to wash up."


    Kyle hesitated. "She will do it by herself. I''ll stay here with you."


    "I said, take her to wash up. Don''t you understand?" Despite his condition, hismanding presence remained undiminished.


    Kyle was silent for a moment. Under Alexander''s oppressive gaze, he had no choice but to take Quinn to the restroom.
