Chapter 1327

Thinking of Neera’s pale face from earlier, Jean couldn’t help but worry. After a moment of consideration, he took the initiative and suggested, “Let me go in and help her.”

Adriana was puzzled. “You don’t know medicine. How can i help her?”

“Her condition doesn’t look very good after such a long time. I’m worried something might happen.

Even if I can’t be of much help, I’ll just stay by her side. Or I could assist her with some minor tasks, allowing her to take a brief rest and relax a bit.”

Adriana also had Neera’s situation on her mind. Hearing this, she actually found it feasible.

The Cox family didn’t object. After changing into a sterile surgical gown, Jean entered the medical room.

Neera was startled when she heard a noise and turned around to find him standing there.

“How did you get in? This is the medical room. You can’t just come and go as you please. You need to leave immediately.”

Jean grabbed her hand as she tried to push him away, holding it firmly without a word.

“I can’t leave you alone, so I’ll stay here with you. Don’t worry. I won’t cause any trouble.

Neera felt a bit helpless. “I’m fine. You don’t need to come in…”

Jean insisted, “I can’t rest easy.”

Neera had no choice but to go with him.

Indeed, Jean’s worries were proven to be justified.

During this time, Neera zoned out a few times, nearly reaching her limit, and almost fainted on the spot.

Luckily, Jean was there. He caught her in time and made her sit down to rest.

“Your condition is really bad right now. You can’t keep going like this. I’ll keep an eye out for you, and I’ll call you immediately if anything happens. You should get some sleep.”

Neera was reluctant, which almost made Jean lose his temper with her.

“Are you pushing yourself so hard that you’re disregarding your own health? You haven’t had a proper rest in days. Are you planning to keep going until you end up in a hospital? What if something happens to Avery while you’re passed out? Even if you don’t think about yourself, you should consider your patients, and me, and the children, and all the people who care about you.”

Upon hearing his words, Neera was left speechless. Faced with his stern expression, tinged with a hint of anger, she eventually admitted defeat.

“All right, I’ll rest against the chair for a bit. If there’s any change in Avery’s condition or if the monitor shows any changes in reading, you must wake me up.”

Seeing that she finally heeded his advice, Jean breathed a sigh of relief. “All right.”

And so, Neera leaned against the chair, her head tilted slightly, and closed her eyes.

The moment she relaxed, the taut strings in her mind seemed to snap, plunging her instantly into the boundless darkness. She quickly fell into a deep slumber.

Jean watched as her head kept tilting to one side. He walked over, stood beside her, and gently turned her head toward him, allowing half of her body to lean against his own.

And there he was, maintaining his position, not daring to move, for fear of waking her up.

When the alarm of the vital signs monitor on Avery’s body first sounded, Neera was sleeping so deeply that she didn’t hear a thing.

Although Jean was reluctant, he knew it was a matter of life and death, so he immediately woke her up.

“Neera, wake up. Avery’s heartbeat is getting weaker and weaker!”

Neera’s mind suddenly became incredibly clear.

She hastily stood up, but her legs gave way, nearly causing her to topple forward.

“Watch out!” With sharp eyes and quick reflexes, Jean swiftly caught her around the waist. “Are you okay?”

Neera nodded, disregarding everything else. She stumbled a bit as she made her way to the bedside.

Avery’s heart rate dropped rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, his heartbeat abruptly stopped.

On the monitor, the original curve instantly turned into a straight line.

The sound heralding death was so piercing to the ear.

Neera’s face turned ashen. She quickly started performing chest compressions on him. After his heartbeat faintly stirred back to life, she continued with the resuscitation efforts.

This kind of situation had occurred three times in the past two days.

Even though Neera had performed a major blood transfusion for him, the toxins had already infiltrated his organs, damaging some of his internal organs, and his heart had also suffered a certain degree of damage. Therefore, this life-threatening situation could very likely occur.

Fortunately, Neera’s superb medical skills brought Avery back from the brink of death.

Forty-eight hours had passed, and all of Avery’s vital signs had returned to normal levels. His heartbeat had also stabilized.

Day turned into night, and night back into day. By the time Neera stepped out of the medical room, it was deep into the night again.

The members of the Cox and Gordon families hadn’t left; they were still waiting in the corridor, just as they were two days ago when she came out. The only difference was the absence of Albert.

Under the tense scrutiny of everyone, she was utterly exhausted, yet “Mr. Cox is now out of danger and his condition is stable. Everyou. The managed to muster a faint smile.

can rest assured.”

Rio and Ronald were overwhelmed with excitement, continuously expressing their words of gratitude.

Violet, too, was moved to tears of joy, and she hugged Neera with all her strength.

“Thank you, Neenie. Thank you for keeping Satan alive.”

After she finished speaking, she rushed into the medical room to see Avery.

Chad and Adriana also let out a long sigh as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders.

“Neera, you’ve done a great job. You’ve worked-Neera!”

Before Chad could finish his sentence, his face suddenly changed as he cried out Neera’s name.

Adriana was also terrified, the color draining rapidly from her face as she hurriedly rushed forward.

Neera staggered a couple of steps, seemingly trying to sit down on the bench. But before she could even touch it, she uncontrollably fell to the ground, slipping into unconsciousness.
