Felix’s eyes were glassy, his expression dazed from the persistent high fever. 

His voice was weak. “Go ahead and sew it up. I’m curious to see how ugly your handiwork will be.” 

Meryl didn’t reply. 

The bed was too low, and her pregnant belly made bending over uncomfortable. To make things easier, she knelt down directly. 

Years ago, when medical technology wasn’t as advanced, her mentor, Michael, had performed emergency sutures in dire situations. Meryl had assisted him a few times. 

This was her first time doing it herself. Her hands trembled slightly with nerves. Thankfully, Felix cooperated, lying still without making a sound. He resembled a puppet, entirely numb to the pain.

Felix’s eyes gleamed with disbelief. “Where did you learn medicine like this?”
