Eventually, Francesca decided to prepare her own prescription and instructed the nurse to get her the necessary medication before beginning treatment.
Of course, the nurse had inquired about Sean’s opinions and only did as instructed when the latter gave her his permission.
It only took several days for Francesca’s injuries to recuperate, and by then, she could get off the bed and walk stably.
The nurse was surprised by her speedy recovery and even asked if she was a doctor.
Francesca did not answer the question and only requested her to prepare some water so that she could take a good bath.
After all, she felt uncomfortable and unnerved for not getting to bathe for days because of her injuries.
The nurse was in the bathroom preparing a tub of warm water when her high-pitched screams reverberated through the place.
“What is it?” Francesca walked in with a limp.
“Snake… There’s a snake…” The nurse shivered violently, her face as white as a sheet. Fear gripped her heart as she glued her eyes to the green snake slithering in the bathtub.
Seeing that, Francesca was not frightened and instead broke into a wide smile. “What a pretty green snake!”
“I-Is the snake venomous?” The nurse stumbled backward in fear.
“It’s a green viper, so yes, it’s venomous. But since it’s still a snakelet, its venom is less potent.”
Francesca hobbled over and ran her slender hand across the warm water toward the green snake in the bathtub.
Strangely enough, the snake was unalarmed by her action and instead gently twined its body around her wrist. It looked just like a jade bracelet, glimmering under the lights.
“Oh, my God!” The nurse stared at her in shock. “A-Aren’t you scared?”
“What is there to be scared of?” Francesca gently ran her fingers over the green snake and chuckled. “This little one is so adorable!”
“I’m afraid this might not be an ordinary snake. Mr. Lindberg might have raised it…” the nurse said. “You might die if it bites you.”
“What? That guy raises snakes?” Francesca appeared excited upon hearing the nurse’s words.
“Um…” The nurse did not dare to reveal more and nervously ran out. “I’ll get out first. Take your time to bath. And be careful not to let water touch your wounds.”
