With a heavy, muted thud, Lucinda weakly lost consciousness and copsed into his embrace.
Nathan tightly held Lucinda in his arms and hastened towards the garage, intending to make his way to theboratory.
The chaos in the rest area and the two violent ps were clear signs: something was profoundly wrong with Lucinda.
About thirty minutester, Aldric conducted a thorough examination on Lucinda, including a blood test, to determine if the S404 Virus had been transmitted to her through her babies.
As Nathan awaited the result, Aldric nced at his swollen left cheek and offered, “Nathan, would you like to apply some anti-inmmatory cream, or should I use ice to bring down the swelling on your cheek?”
Nathan touched the sore spot inside his mouth and agreed, “Sure.
Let’s focus on her situation first, then I’ll take care of my wound.
”
Aldric didn’t say anything.
Theboratory was still and quiet, with neither of them speaking.
They both sat in tense anticipation of the test result.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
After an hour of waiting, the outside had be dark.
Once Aldric received the result, he returned to the ward wearing a solemn expression.
Nathan, positioned beside Lucinda, promptly rose to his feet and inquired, “What does it say?”
Aldric gripped the test report tightly and remarked, “Nate, there’s good and bad news.
Which one do you want to hear first?”
Nathan’s expression grew grim.
He was left speechless by the news, and he couldn’t bear the suspense any longer!
But he maintained hisposure and said calmly, “Let’s start with the good news first.
”
“The blood test result reveals that there’s no trace of the S404
Virus in her system, and her life is not in danger.
You can rx now.
”
Nathan let out a sigh of relief.
“Now, what’s the bad news?”
Aldric wore a grave expression.
“Based on all the indicators and her unusual behaviors earlier, she’s dealing with manic depression.
”
Nathan’s brow furrowed deeply.
“This doesn’t make sense.
It’s a mental illness.
How could she suddenly develop a manic depression after a hit to the back of her head?”
Aldric offered a patient exnation.
“There were indications of Lucinda’s manic depression.
When she was pregnant, she faced numerous challenges on her own, leading to significant psychological stress and mental distress.
This time, the hit to her head happened to trigger an episode, but it’s not the underlying cause.
”
He sighed, filled with remorse.
“You mentioned that when she was pregnant, she bit you over minor issues until you bled.
Then she went to the hospital for a check-up.
The doctor attributed it to excessive progesterone and said that pregnant women often experience mood swings, so it wasn’t a major concern.
However, in reality, if she couldn’t manage her emotions, it could lead to various hidden risks and health issues.
This time, she had a sudden episode.
”
Nathan turned his gaze toward the unconscious Lucinda lying on the bed, reminiscing about the events that had unfolded earlier.
