Renee arrived at the infirmary. While supporting an unconscious Stefan, she tipped up the bowl of
medicinal tea and poured it all into his mouth.
“You’ve almost got this, you punk. Just hold on!” She held onto his hand tightly as she said those words
with red- rimmed eyes.
Night fell quickly. Renee had stayed by the bed the whole day, hopelessly staring at Stefan until he
woke up.
“Miss Everheart, Mr. Hunt’s condition has stabilized. You should go rest,” the nurse told Renee in an
encouraging tone.
“I’m alright, I am also resting while I’m here, and I feel more reassured watching him.”
“Then please take care of yourself. If there’s anything you need, feel free to call me anytime.” The
nurse gave a long sigh before walking out of the infirmary.
After all, everyone in Greenwood Sanatorium knew that Miss Everheart loved Stefan to death.
After some time, Reneeid her head on the edge of the bed and fell asleep.
Later, Stefan came around. He wiggled his fingers, only to find that they were touching Renee’s hair.
The feeling of such smooth hair tangled in his fingertips made his heart do flips.
“You’re awake?” Renee was sleeping lightly, and upon feeling that something was amiss, she woke up
with a jolt.
She looked at Stefan worriedly, “How do you feel, still ufortable or feeling weak?”
Stefan jerked his hand back as if he had been caught red- handed. He coldly replied, “Who told you I
was weak? I feel better than ever.”
Seeing that he had the energy to snap back, Renee released a breath of relief with a smile. “Right,
right, you’re not weak. I was wrong.”
“Honestly, I do feel more energized. I’m no longer dizzy.” Stefan moved his arms around. His body felt
lighter and more at ease than he has ever been.
“That’s good, that’s very good.” Renee was overjoyed. It seems that the medicine made from Jovan’s
blood was working well.
Margaret heard the news and rushed over. After helping Stefan measure his pulse, she was over the
moon. “Mr. Hunt’s pulse is steady and strong. His condition is even better than before. We really did
discover the most effective special ingredient this time!”
“What special ingredient?” Stefan frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.
“J… Just some random herbs. They are special ingredients that helped a lot in improving your
condition!” Renee listed out a few different types of ingredients on a whim and told
him, “As long as you take care of yourself, you will be all better in no time!”
As the sky turned dark, Stefan ate some porridge and fell asleep again.
Renee and Margaret walked out of the infirmary and went to a dark corner.

“Aunt Margaret, you weren’t lying to me, right? Stefan’s condition, is it really better than before?” She
could not imagine that things would be so sessful and believed that Aunt Margaret was only lying to
her to make her feel better.
“Oh, Miss Ren, it couldn’t be more true. Mr. Hunt’s condition has improved so much! Jovan’s blood
works even better than I thought it would!”
Margaret’s tone was full of certainty, and was as excited as Columbus finding the ‘New World.’
“But that’s Jovan. He hates Stefan’s guts. How could his blood be effective?”
“Blood rtives are considered loved ones too, so their blood should be effective as well. Who knows?
Jovan may very well have the deepest respect for Mr. Hunt in his heart.”
“You’re right. Love and hate are separated by a thin line anyway.”
Renee stroked her chin thoughtfully when understanding hit her.
Jovan had always looked up to Stefan while growing up.
Even though he made it clear it was jealousy, it could really just be that he loved him to death, perhaps
even more than her. Moreover, he is also a rtive; thus, his blood would naturally be more effective
than hers.
He said that he was scared of her hurting, but what if, in reality, he was just worried about Stefan?!’
Heh, he sure doesn’t like admitting to his feelings!’
