The Ex-Wife He Can’t Have novel Chapter 196

Upon arriving at the hospital, the doctor asked how the bite happened, but Sylvia was too panicked to recall a single detail. Killian had been entirely focused on comforting her, and in the dim light of the woods, he hadn't seen the snake clearly either.

The doctor pressed for the snake's species or physical features, but neither could answer.

The doctor sighed helplessly. "If we knew what kind of snake it was, the treatment would be much simpler. Even if you couldn't identify it, snapping a picture right away is the best approach. Different snakes have completely different types of venom. We need a photo to administer the right treatment. For example, some have neurotoxins..."

"Stop! If you keep blabbering, I'm not going to make it!" Sylvia interrupted the doctor irritably.

The doctor reassured her gently, "Don't worry. Based on the wound, it's not a highly venomous snake. The toxicity is relatively weak."

"Then do you have the right antivenom for it now?" Sylvia asked frantically.

"We can't be sure until we find out what kind of snake bit you."

Sylvia instantly looked at Killian. "Jillian! She took a picture of the snake just now."

Killian suddenly remembered Jillian raising her phone to take a picture earlier. At the time, it seemed random, but now he realized she was securing evidence.

"Killian, call her right now and have her send the photo! I don't want to lose my leg..." Sylvia urged through tears.

Killian had barely taken out his phone when Sylvia impatiently dialed Jillian's number herself, demanding fiercely, "Do you have a picture of that snake?"

By now, Jillian had long returned to her villa. She had taken a shower, changed into her pajamas, and was lying in bed.

"Yes, why?"

"You knew perfectly well that you needed a photo for evidence! Why didn't you come with the ambulance? How do you even know about this stuff? Have you been researching venomous snakes? Jillian, I bet you released that snake on purpose just to get me..."

Jillian didn't wait for her to finish and hung up straight away.
