Dear sweetheart novel (Rayna and Julian) novel Chapter 669

Chapter 669

Rayna leaned against Curtis weakly inside the car while he held her tight in liis arms. When liis warm skin touched her exposed cold arms, liis heart clenched. He wanted to ask her questions but did not have the courage to do so.

“Robin, how long will it take for us to get to the hospital?” Curtis asked Robin, who was driving.

Robin checked the GPS on liis phone before replying, “The GPS shows that the nearest hospital is twenty minutes away.”

“Ten minutes!” Curtis ordered. “We must reach there within ten minutes!”

Rayna's body was turning cold, and her breathing was weakening. Curtis ordered Robin to increase the temperature of the air conditioning inside the car, but it did nothing to slow down the rapid drop in her body temperature.

Under the dim light inside the car, he could clearly see the tiling that was actively moving under her skin a second ago subsiding.

At once, he suddenly thought of what the man had said earlier, “Remember to eat the medicine...”

“Medicine!” Curtis picked up the coat he had left on the other side of the seat. He reached into the pockets and looked through every single one of them. In the end, he found a clear plastic bottle that contained a single red pill in one of the inner pockets.

Just as he was about to uncap the bottle, Robin looked at him through the rearview min or and warned. “Mr. Faymon, we don't know where that medicine is from, so we ought to be cautious.”

His words brought Curtis to liis senses, and the latter ceased his desperate attempts to save Rayna. The man's hands were shaky as he gripped the bottle. Gazing at her, he muttered to himself. “Curtis Faymon. you must've gone crazy...”

It was a simple principle that even Robin knew, yet he had almost given an unknown medicine to Rayna.

Upon hearing Robin's words, Rayna stuttered, “C-Curtis, I... In my body... There's a parasite, right?”

Someone had poisoned her with a parasite. It was a practice that she thought did not exist in that century.

At that, Curtis froze momentarily. He did not want Rayna to know about it. He thought he could hide it from her forever, but she still found out about it.

“Yes, but we can get it out. We just need to find someone who specializes in things like this, and they'll be able to remove the parasite from your body.” Curtis placed a kiss on her cold cheek. “Rayna, you'll be all right. The babies and I need you. I won't let anything happen to you.”

“Okay.” Rayna nodded. “I believe you.” She held up a hand to caress liis face and unexpectedly felt something wet and warm on her fingers. Knowing that he was crying made her heart ache.

When Curtis arrived at the hospital with Rayna. he found that a big fire had coincidentally broken out at a nearby mountain. The fire spread quickly, so some residents on the mountain got burned while some could not be located. As a result, the hospital was overcrowded.

The doctors and nurses were busy treating the burnt victims, bustling in and out.

No one came to ask what had happened when Curtis carried Rayna into the hospital. Seeing that. Robin immediately went to look for a doctor or a nurse to help them.

“Simone. Simone? Wliat are you doing standing there? Don't you see that we're short-staffed?” Simone's colleague, overwhelmed by how busy it was, called out to her upon seeing that the latter, who was supposed to assist them, had fallen into a trance while holding onto a medical tray.

An icy glint flashed past the latter's eyes when he heard the doctor's question. “Doctors are only responsible for treating patients. I don't think it's within their job scope to be curious about other tilings.”

In the past, Curtis was not as apathetic as then. However, he dared not let others know too much about liis and Rayna's identities, considering the situation they were in. He was afraid that they also harbored ill intentions toward her.

In response, the middle-aged doctor smiled and reached up to push liis glasses further up the bridge of liis nose. Out of the comer of liis eye, he gave both Curtis and Robin a once-over.

“Dr. Galopin, Simone is here.” The nurse stood at the entrance of the hospital ward and knocked on the door's frame to inform Milo of her return.

Milo beckoned Simone, who was standing outside the ward, to enter before motioning her to close the door behind her.

“Milo,” Simone greeted as she approached him. Her gaze then shifted to Rayna. who was lying on the hospital bed. “Why did you call me over?”

“Can you tell what's wrong with her?” Milo asked when he saw Simone's shocked expression.

“Parasite!” she blurted out immediately. The look in her eyes was one of pure confidence as she turned to look at Milo. “There's a parasite!”

“That's right.” Milo nodded. “It's shocking to see such a tiling exist in tliis world.”

The two of them were medical practitioners, and medicine was purely about science. However, in the vast universe, many phenomena could not be explained with science. At that moment. Rayna's condition was one of those phenomena.
