Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2292

“Come on! Get up and fight!”

“Hear, hear! Are you even a man? Get up!”

However, Caiden was truly depleted of all energy.

“Stop right there!”

Out of the blue, a powerful vibe swept over the place.

All at once, the group of men panicked. They instantly whirled around and took to their heels.

“Stay where you are! Don’t run! Anyone who tries to run will be banished from this civilized village!” the village chief roared.

In the blink of an eye, silence fell. Everyone stopped short, not daring to move a single muscle.

Thud! The wooden stick in the man’s hand fell to the ground.

“So, all of you are now great and mighty, huh? How dare you act as though you’re the law here?” The village chief boomed as he studied the group of people before him.

“We didn’t do anything, Chief! It was him! He made the first move!” a child suddenly cried out as he pointed at the man nearby who had beaten Caiden up.

“Are you okay, Caiden? How are you doing?” Joan immediately sprinted over and helped him up.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine…”

Before Caiden could finish speaking, he fell back to the ground and fainted.

“Caiden! Wake up!” Joan screeched and wailed hysterically.

There was no hospital in this village. Instead, there was one dilapidated clinic.

On the hospital bed, Caiden’s eyes remained closed, his countenance extremely pallid. The corners of his eyes and mouth, not to mention his cheeks, were stained with blood. Beside him, Joan’s eyes held a wealth of anguish and regret.

“Miss, there’s no use even if you were to continue waiting like this. Why don’t you go and eat something? You’ll only have energy if you eat. It’s imperative that you don’t collapse because he still needs you to take care of him,” the doctor advised softly.

“Thank you, Doctor, but I’m not hungry,” Joan murmured.
