Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102
“Agnes, what’s up with you?” Ava gently tapped on Agnes’s face
Agnes’s face was burning up, Ava noticed, she was running a high fever
Ava couldn’t help but feel afraid.
Earlier in the day, Beatrice had told her some things, and later at night, she sprinkled some peanut powder on Beatrice’s pillow.
She thought it was just a common allergy, but she didn’t expect it to be this serious, Ava quickly sought help.
Everyone in the crew was startled awake, and Agnes was rushed to the hospital.
Agnes felt her consciousness blurred, dizzy, the world seemed chaotic.
When she opened her eyes again, all she saw were blurry figures, all wearing white doctor’s coats and nurse uniforms, and one silhouette.
She vaguely heard the doctor’s voice, ‘Ms. Pritchard, this is an anaphylactic shock, the allergen causes asthma which leads to shock. Ms. Pritchard’s condition is quite serious and needs to be hospitalized for observation.”
“Thank you, Dr. Porras.”
“Mr. Whitfield, you’re too kind”
Then the doctors and nurses left.
The tall silhouette turned around, and Agnes finally saw that face, it was Jared.
Jared found that Agnes had woken up and immediately came over and asked, “Agnes, how are you feeling, do you need some water?”
Agnes shook her head, “Why are you back?”
Agnes remembered that Jared should be on a business trip to Japan these days, how could he suddenly appear in front of her.
Jared said, “Of course I must come back. You almost didn’t wake up.”
Agnes said, “It’s not that serious. I just had an allergic reaction. These little accidents happen once or twice a year, there’s no danger to my life.”
Hearing Agnes say this, Jared’s face immediately turned serious, “Agnes, are you st d? Knowing your allergic reactions are so severe, and still have one or two every year?”
Agnes said with a grievance, ‘It’s not something I can control, who can predict accidents?”
Agnes knew her severe peanut allergy, it was hereditary
Normally she was very careful when eating, she would avoid anything related to peanuts, but this time she was not sure what happened
Jared said, “I don’t think this could be an accident, think hard, have you ever told anyone about your peanut allergy”
Agnes frowned.
She had never mentioned it, but in the crew, besides her, Beatrice knew.
If it were really done on purpose. Beatrice would definitely not do it herself, Agnes was absolutely sure about this.
Agnes said in a low voice, “Don’t always assume the worst in people, maybe it really was just an accident, maybe I accidentally ate some.”
Jared said. “This industry is not as simple as you think, I don’t understand why you want to act.”
Why act? Isn’t it just to avoid him?
Agnes didn’t feel good about it, she just pulled the blanket over her head, “Don’t bother me. I’m going to sleep”
Next, Jared pulled the blanket off again and said, “Apply the medicine before you sleep”
Jared got a box of ointment and said, “This is the medicine prescribed by the doctor, the rash on your body can’t go away, you need to apply it three times a day. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-itching effects, take off your clothes first”
Agness cheeks suddenly turned red. She said, “I can apply it myself, you can go out first.”
Jared stood by the bed, staring hard at Agnes, his cold gaze seemed like it could carve out a hole in her body.
Jared said coldly. “Do you take them off yourself, or do I have to help you?”
Agnes couldn’t help but feel a bil scared seeing Jared’s stone-cold expression.
