Chapter 1074
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Meanwhile, Margaret was brewing medicine for Renee in the room. She was frowning deeply as she murmured, âSir, Madam, please watch over Miss Renee so sheâll be safe and sound. Itâs my fault that I made such a useless prescriptionâ¦
I made her suffer a lot!â
As she watched the fire for the medicine, she was engulfed with deep remorse. The prescription that her old father, whom she had cut off all ties with, created was indeed miraculously effective. However, its side effects were pretty strong.
During the three days that Miss Ren was unconscious, the ingredient that she prepared for Stefan had been used up. Consequently, his condition grew worse, and he could not even get out of bed now.
Margaret came up with a lot of methods, but they were all futile. She could not pinpoint the reason either. However, she did not dare to inform Renee about this. If not, she would make a big scene.
âMargaret!â Renee snuck up behind Margaret and tried to spook her. When Margaret turned around, Renee grinned at her. âWere you scared?â
Something was weighing on Margaret, so of course, she was frightened. âMiss Ren, you scared me!
Thank goodness youâre finally awake. Come and take this medicine.â She poured the medicine she had just brewed into a palm-sized bowl, then blew on it to cool it down. She then handed it to Renee.
However, Renee was in no mood to consume the medicine. She asked immediately, âHow is Stefan doing? Is his medicine done? Is the ingredient enough? If not, you can take more from me.â As she spoke, she rolled her sleeves up.
âNo, we canât do that. Do you think your blood is tap water? You canât keep giving it away,â Jovan entered the room and pushed Reneeâs arms down sternly. He then urged, âTake the medicine first. Heâs fine at the moment, so you donât have to worry about him.â
âReally?â Renee was doubtful so she looked at Margaret for confirmation.
âUmmâ¦â Margaret was at a loss for words. She was an honest person by nature, so she could not lie easily like Jovan. However, she could not bear to tell Renee the truth either.
Renee immediately sensed that something was wrong.â Margaret, tell me the truth. Whatâs wrong with Stefan?â
She felt that something was amiss the moment she woke up just now. Jovan and the other employees in the sanatorium had said nothing about Stefan, and even Margaret was hesitant now.
âHe, heâ¦â Margaret looked at Jovan helplessly as if asking for his opinion. She felt that the only person who could persuade Renee was him.
âHeâs blind, what could possibly happen to him? He just needs to eat and rest. People will serve him.
You should worry about yourself first, so hurry up and take the medicine. â Jovan explained calmly.
âSomethingâs wrong. Where is he? I want to go and see him!â Renee demanded.
Margaret was left with no choice but to expose the truth since Renee refused to take the medicine.
âHeâs resting in bed in the west wing. His condition wasnât very good during the few days that you were in a coma. We didnât want you to worry, so we didnât tell you.â
âDidnât he recover well? Why did his condition worsen?â Without thinking, Renee stumbled her way towards the west wing.
Jovan smacked his forehead and shot Margaret an annoyed glance. âI asked you to hide it from her.â
After that, he ran after Renee.
