If Renfrew really had leukemia…
"Ma'am… Ma'am?"
Hesper fainted and slid to the floor next to Renee, who immediately tried to grab her and called Matthew. Even though Emperion and the Tucker household were a mess, Matthew had to get over there to handle the situation.
Meanwhile, Professor Miles ran some tests and confirmed that what Hesper gave him was an antidote. He immediately called her but no one picked up.
"Where did the girl go…"
Even though there was no news from Hesper, they had the antidote, so the doctor rushed back to give it to Rickard.
Things would finally be okay.
Professor Miles took a deep breath and looked at Rickard, then sighed. "I don't know what I've done to deserve this. I was supposed to leave after healing her legs, but now I have more issues."
***
After a few hours, Matthew, who received Renee's call, finally got to Genecity and found Hesper and Renfrew through location tracking.
Hesper had fainted because she was just too anxious and tired. When Matthew got there, she was awake and sitting in bed, but her eyes were empty.
Renee stood next to her. When she saw Matthew, she looked as if she had seen her savior.
