“What complications?” asked Joan, who was tearing up a little.

“From now on, he has to strike a balance between studying and playing. You must not let him overexert his mind, or he will develop a headache. He’ll recover eventually if he rests up, though,” replied the doctor.

Instantly, Joan’s eyes glazed over.

At that moment, Delilah was standing by the door. Although she couldn’t hear what the doctor said, she could tell from Joan’s expression that things were bad.

“Mom! Don’t hurt my mom!” murmured Lucius as he shook his head with his eyes closed while lying on the bed.

“Lucius, wake up. I’m right here,” Joan hurriedly comforted him.

“Mom!” blurted the kid. All of a sudden, his eyes flung open, and he sprang up but quickly fell back down and closed his eyes.

He’s having another nightmare.

Joan held the kid’s hand tightly as regret and heartbreak filled her eyes.

“Ms. Young,” greeted Joan in a trembling voice.

Delilah walked to the young lady and gently stroked her hair before sighing aloud.

“It’s fine. He’ll recover,” said Delilah to offer some comfort.

Caspian’s eyes contained a hint of sorrow, seeing the scene before him.

“Hello, Caspian? What is going on? Didn’t I tell you to stay in the village? Why is the place empty?” asked Larry anxiously.

Caspian hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to tell Larry everything. After all, the former had asked the doctor about Lucius’ injuries, which turned out to be more serious than expected.

“What? At the hospital? Wait right there,” instructed Larry before he hung up and turned his steering wheel to change course.

Everyone in the ward had their eyes on Lucius, and nobody knew what to say. All they could do was wait for the kid to wake up.

Bang! Someone flung the door open.

“What happened?” demanded Larry, who dashed to the bed.
