“I said I’m fine.


    I bit my tongue, that’s all.


    Don’t make a fuss about it, and don’t tell Lucinda about this.


    She already has too much on her te,” Nathaniel reiterated.


    “What? You seriously just bit your tongue?”


    Abel asked in disbelief.


    Seeing that Abel didn’t believe him, Nathaniel changed tactics.


    “I’m hungry.


    Can you get me some chicken soup?”


    “The hospital canteen should have that.


    I’ll ask the nurse to bring some here.


    ”


    Abel was about to press the button by the head of the bed, but Nathaniel stopped him quickly.


    “I don’t want to eat hospital food.


    I want you to buy it for me in Doug Hotel.


    Thanks.


    ”


    “Doug Hotel?”


    Abel was a little hesitant.


    Rickey had gone to help Lucinda.


    If he left as well, there would be no one tending to Nathaniel.


    Noticing his concern, Nathaniel showed a smile and said, “Don’t worry.


    I’m not going anywhere.


    I know Cyrus and Graham will help Lucinda and I’ll stay here.


    ”


    “Okay, fine.


    ” Abel caved.

    Then Nathaniel ordered him to buy a few more dishes-all of which had to be made fresh.


    Abel didn’t doubt Nathaniel, but he was still a little worried.


    Before going out, he reminded Nathaniel not to go anywhere.


    Nathaniel nodded calmly, but his tightly clenched fists and the blue veins standing out on his arms betrayed his true emotions.


    The second Abel left, he rushed into the VIP ward’s small washroom and vomited a mouthful of blood.


    A wave of dizziness made him lose his bnce, and he had to lean on the wall for support.


    The sulfuric acid should’ve just burnt his skin, It shouldn’t have had any effect on his internal organs.


    Wincing, he took off his shirt and gingerly removed the bandages on his back.


    From his reflection in the mirror, he took a closer look on the wound on his back.


    It was still bright red and grotesque even though it had already been treated with medicine, and there were signs of continued festering.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Nathaniel’s expression darkened.


    This wasn’t ordinary sulfuric acid.


    This was…


    Nathaniel wiped the blood from his pale lips and put his shirt back on again.


    Then he sent a message to Sonny.
