Chapter 811: Acting Too Realistically

Nydia had obviously emaciated a bit in the past two days, looking especially pitiful with her large belly.

“You’re still pregnant, don’t get too excited.”

“We didn’t even expect him to do something like this, how can you hurt yourself you say? The two children are still so young, I am still pregnant in my stomach, I really …”

She cried and cried.

“Next give him a good psychological counseling, if not, take him out for a trip, let him not face these things, I guess it will be better.”

Sara comforted.

“Is his condition stabilized now?”

“Sort of stabilized, but the doctor said that it’s hard to return to his previous state after losing too much blood, and it also depends on his own will to survive.”

Sara sighed and patted Nydia’s shoulder soothingly, “I’ll go say hi to him and leave first.”

“Good.”

Entering the hospital room she saw the still lifeless Jesse.

“Jesse, you have to pull yourself together, you can’t do this, you still have a wife and kids, think about them, get through it and everything will be fine.”

Jesse still didn’t react much, he looked like a puppet, which made Sara a little confused.

“I’ll be off then.”

“Well, I’ll see you off.”

Nydia walked Sara away, and on her way out, Sara comforted her again.

She stood in the doorway for a while seeing Sara walk away before returning to the hospital room.

“Here, have some water.” She took the glass and handed it to Jesse, putting the straw in his mouth.

Jesse drank most of the glass of water and his peeling lips got better.

“You didn’t just stop talking to her because your mouth was too dry, did you?”

“She must have come over here to test me, saying more wrong than wrong for fear she might lead me on.” Jesse spoke up, his voice still a little dry.

He sat up, “Get me something to eat, I’m hungry.”

Nydia lost her smile, “Don’t say you can still act, I think she believes it.”

“Try not eating for two days and your acting is okay.” Jesse said in a nonchalant manner.

“It’s not impossible if I have to try, do you miss your kids?”

“I don’t care about the kids, I still can’t let go of you, I’ve never been hungry before and I don’t know, starving for two days without food is just too much.” Jesse was feeling a little lightheaded now.

“Prepared it for you a long time ago.” She took out the thermos box and took out the meals she had prepared for Jesse and set them out one by one, “Vergil, you two eat some as well, it’s been a hard two days.”

Vergil immediately smiled as soon as he saw something to eat, “No hard work no hard work.”

Jesse first drank half a bowl of soup and then ate something that was easy to digest, this meal was specially made for him by Nydia with his stomach in mind so eating a little more wasn’t too much of a problem.

“I don’t think Alex will send anyone else, right?” Nydia was still a little worried, it was more or less impossible to say in case of a kill shot and see Jesse eating a mouthful of grease.

“I don’t think so, he still trusts Sara, Sara saw what happened to me first hand, and with the fact that I’m already mentally ill, it makes logical sense.”

Nydia nodded, remembering when she first found out about Jesse, she was scared half to death, thinking Jesse was coming for real.

“Alright, that’s all you’re going to eat, you’ll have to eat smaller meals now and eat when you’re hungry.”

After eating Jesse regained some of his strength and his whole body looked much better.

Vergil and the caretaker left the ward, leaving Nydia and Jesse alone in the ward.

“Let me take a look at your wound.”

Nydia was distressed when she removed the gauze and saw that it was still quite a serious wound, “You’re being really hard on yourself.”

“Not tough enough to be realistic, I can’t be captured by Alex and used as a vessel.”

He had thought a lot about it on the roof at the time, thinking that he couldn’t take it no matter what, and had a crazy thought in his head that he’d rather die than accept Alex’s heart, which suddenly came to him just after dawn, as long as his body couldn’t withstand the heart replacement surgery, then he wouldn’t be used as a vessel by Alex.

“Still, I’m sorry for scaring you.”

“It’s a good thing I’m smart and resourceful enough to take one look at your wounds and think something’s wrong.”

Since she noticed when she found Jesse that the wound was relatively fresh and hadn’t bled much, if she really wanted to die, she figured it would be more appropriate to come in the middle of the night and do the deed.

So she’d deliberately made a big deal out of getting Jesse to the emergency room to save his life, just so Alex would get the message.

“I just knew you were smart, so I thought you’d get me even if I didn’t consult you.”

“But you’ve suffered the last few days anyway, and you’ve lost blood from your wrist injury.”

“That small injury was well worth it for the safety of our family.” Jesse smiled and embraced Nydia into his arms, “It’s just that acting will be a little harder for a while.”

“Acting, we’re all good at it, it’s fine.”

She had also made Jesse take some medication over the past few days in order to make his situation more realistic, otherwise it would still be easy for the real situation to get out.

Andrew, and Rosalind had also visited Jesse, and Rosalind was crying.

“Do you think Sara will go to mom?” Nydia suddenly thought of the possibility.

“Will.”

“Let’s call Mom later.”

“Okay.”

Jesse was right to consider not letting Rosalind know the truth, or it could easily slip out in the face of a psychologist like Sara.

…

the Pascall Manor.

Sara comes to visit Rosalind.

“Auntie.”

“Sara, what brings you here?” Rosalind looked quite haggard as well.

“I heard about Jesse, so I came over to see if you’re okay. It doesn’t look like you’re in good spirits.”

“How can you be in good spirits after what happened, come in and sit down first.”

Rosalind sighs and looks terrible.

“Auntie, you have to take care of yourself, don’t fall down when Jesse gets well.”

“If he gets well, I’ll fall down if I fall down.”

“I believe Jesse is just having a hard time, he will be fine soon, don’t worry too much, you understand Jesse’s character, he won’t be easily knocked down, he just took the bull by the horns at once.”

“Hopefully, I really did not expect him to do something like this, before when the leg injury is not healed, did not happen like this, now actually …” she could not continue.

Sara comforted her for a little while longer and then left.

She went back to see Alex.

Reporting back to him all the things she had found out.

“Jesse is in bad shape, both physically and emotionally.”

“Have you seen his physical report?”

“I got it through a friend, it’s very weak, with a lot of blood loss.”

Alex stopped talking.

“I also paid a special visit to his mother, who I could tell wasn’t faking it.”

“Hmm.”

Neither man spoke.

“What do you think of my earlier suggestion, Master?”

“Your suggestion is quite good, except for a bit of a problem.”

“What problem?”

“It’s true that Jesse’s dead or alive doesn’t matter, but the drugs have allowed his body to recover under the stimulus, but this recovery in case it’s an illusion, and the problem occurs when the heart transplant is due, it’ll be too late, and once my heart is out of my body it’s irreversible.”

Sara nodded, “Still, you’re the one who thought this through, I’m the one who owed it to you.”

“But just let Jesse go?”
