The moment Cecily Wells rushed out, Nina Jacobs immediately fed Godfrey Thatcher a bottle of "Healing Potion."
The "Healing Potion" couldn’t cure the zombie virus, but she tried it anyway as a last-ditch effort.
However, there was still no notification from the system for the "Selfless Savior" title.
This meant Godfrey Thatcher was not out of danger yet.
It wasn’t just Nina Jacobs; Wayne Warner also seemed very concerned about Godfrey Thatcher’s condition.
He stood beside Godfrey Thatcher, frowning as he watched him.
But Godfrey Thatcher just laughed. "Man, remember what I told you earlier today?
These days, you never know if disaster is waiting for you just around the corner.
It’s just... this is a pretty pathetic way to go...
If I make it out of this alive, I’m never fucking driving for these scumbags again..."
"You haven’t turned yet. Don’t be so quick to give up."
Nina Jacobs said, walking over.
Although the juice was confirmed to contain the zombie virus, Godfrey Thatcher had only taken a small sip and wasn’t yet showing symptoms like nosebleeds.
She knew the chances were slim. The zombie virus’s assault on the human immune system was incredibly potent, but she still urged Godfrey Thatcher to try and hold on.
"It’s fine. It doesn’t matter if I die,
I just used to dream of being a great hero who saves the world, heh heh..."
As he spoke, Godfrey Thatcher started to cry.
Just then, a bottle of cola appeared in front of him, offered by Wayne Warner.
"You didn’t drink any of it?
It’s a waste on me. This is the last bottle from your space, you should keep it."
Seeing Wayne Warner’s insistence, Godfrey Thatcher could only give a wry smile, twist open the cap, and drink it.
Nina Jacobs had never seen Wayne Warner be so patient with anyone else.
She took out some emetics and laxatives and had Godfrey Thatcher take those as well.
After taking the medicine, Godfrey Thatcher locked himself in the bathroom and stayed there.
It wasn’t until dawn the next day that Nina Jacobs received the system notification for triggering the "Selfless Savior" achievement.
She guessed Godfrey Thatcher must have pulled through.
Arcadia White was very surprised when she saw Godfrey Thatcher again.
"You’re still alive?"
Arcadia White looked Godfrey Thatcher up and down in astonishment.
"Yes, I am."
Godfrey Thatcher replied.
"That’s a good thing. It just proves you have a decent constitution."
Arcadia White’s flippant remark made Godfrey Thatcher clench his fists.
However, he showed no outward sign of his anger, simply getting into the car as usual and driving it to the courtyard gate.
Nina Jacobs and Wayne Warner had saved his life.
After hearing that Nina Jacobs was planning to go with Arcadia White to Whittaker Town, he decided to stay for the time being and only consider leaving after she and Wayne Warner returned.
General Hughes also seemed to know what happened last night.
When the group emerged, he was still comforting a crying Cecily Wells. His expression soured further when he saw Arcadia White leading their daughter by the hand.
He grabbed Cecily Wells by the wrist and strode toward the mother and daughter.
"Look at the child you’ve raised!
Cecily Wells is a member of my Shadow Legion! How can you indulge our daughter to this degree?"
Arcadia White hadn’t expected her husband to berate her so publicly and was momentarily stunned.
"Julia Hughes, apologize to Cecily Wells!"
General Hughes ordered.
"I’m not apologizing! They wouldn’t play with me!
Mommy said I can play however I want, and it doesn’t matter even if people die!"
As soon as Julia Hughes finished speaking, the color drained from the faces of everyone around them.
SLAP! The General’s hand struck Julia Hughes’s face again.
"Anselm Hughes! How dare you hit my daughter!
Have you forgotten who gave you everything you have now? The Shadow Legion was established by the Whites,
and your main Hughes Family line is just a declining clan! By what right do you do this!"
Arcadia White spat, pointing an accusing finger at General Hughes.
But General Hughes didn’t fly into a rage out of humiliation. He simply sneered.
