Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 211

"It is just that she was drugged with a local medicine, and the effect of this medicine is pretty strong.

I am afraid that there might be some consequences."

Brian's eyes narrowed and his tension was evident. He glared at the doctor with his sharp, terrifying eyes. A shiver of fright traveled through the doctor's veins. He was too scared to continue talking.

"What consequences?" Brian asked nervously. Eric frowned, his handsome face showed anger and anxiety. Seeing how emotional Eric was at that moment, Lenny's eyes filled with jealousy.

"She might..." The doctor muttered. Much as he strove to explain the situation in better words, he could not find a proper way to explain her condition without the danger of being punished by the two men in front of him. Eric and Brian were fairly younger than him, but their chilly and ghastly eyes betrayed their age and the doctor couldn't dare say anything that would make them angry.

"She might not be able to speak again?" Brian asked, trying to stay calm as best as he could. His tone sounded indifferent, as if he was just stating the facts after assessing the situation rather than being worried for a person that he actually cared about.

Realizing that there was no other way around, the doctor nodded his head lightly. His lips quivered, struggling to overcome the fear in his mind. "This is not the first time I am seeing a patient like this on QY Island. I have seen plenty of patients with the same symptoms, but unfortunately, no one has ever been cured so far. This drug causes severe damage to the patient's throat. There are also chances of damage occurring to the whole vocal system. "So..." he stammered.

"No one has ever been cured? Are you sure that there is no other way?" asked Brian, in an unconcerned way, but no one confronted him. Although he already knew that there might be consequences, he had not excepted it to be so severe.

The doctor pondered over it for a little while before he spoke again,"It might not be totally incurable. The timeline since she was drugged is fairly short and I have already given her necessary treatments. But either way, the damage to her throat would still exist. It is just that it wouldn't be as bad as the others and if we treat her properly, there might be hope,"

said the doctor with very less confidence. At the end of it, he still couldn't find a fine word to confront Brian's penetrating, grimly eyes.

Eric glanced sideways at Molly, who laid in deathly stillness on the bed. Her pallid face looked extremely white under the gloomy light. The doctor's words stunned him into terror. For the first time, he felt such unexplainable, complicated fury and pain. Struggling with his emotions, he lowered his head instinctively to avoid being caught by Brian.

"Tony, send the doctor back," Brian said.
