"Your Majesty!" Rick quickly held Yasmin and instructed the guards to take Ross away.
The latter was reluctant to leave at first, but when he saw his ill-looking mother, he yielded.
Yasmin’s breathing was still uneven, even after her son left. Rick then sent her back to her room and got a doctor to examine her.
After a detailed examination, the doctor shook his head. "Her Majesty's blood pressure and heart rate are very high. We must take emergency measures."
"Then do it!"
"But Her Majesty is weak. I don't know…” The doctor was unsure if Yasmin could cope.
"You should know what’ll happen to you guys if anything bad were to happen to her."
Alarmed, the doctor quickly started emergency treatment. Rick looked on for a moment and then thought of something. He then left the room and whispered something to the guard outside.
Soon, the guard brought Dominic over.
"Please save her, sir," Rick said courteously, knowing Yasmin respected Dominic.
The latter was puzzled and took a step closer to look at Dominic.
"What are you looking at me for? Tell your man to fetch my box if you want to save her." Since no one told Dominic what was going on, he did not bring anything with him. He still needed his tools to save Yasmin, after all.
Rick nodded. "Right away, sir."
He then went to tell someone to collect the old man’s medical kit. When Rick returned, he saw the old man sitting on the edge of the bed, holding Yasmin’s hand while knocking its back gently with a loose fist.
