Selena did not stay smug for long after eating the barbecue.
After they entered the bedroom, Eric was suddenly interrupted by an urgent call.
When he came back after the phone call, Selena was already curled up on the bed due to a stomach ache. She dared not move.
Eric’s complexion changed, and he took a deep breath.
Selena slowly stretched out her hand and looked at him with disappointment.
“Quick, help me! What are you still doing?”
Eric immediately called the hospital, then he bent down to pick her up and ran outside.
As soon as he went out, he saw the driver had just sent Chance home.
Chance watched in shock as Eric rushed into the car with Selena.
“Aunt Selena, what’s wrong with you?”
Eric was anxious and flustered, but he did not forget to use this opportunity to teach his son a lesson.
“This is the consequence of eating junk food!”
Selena was speechless as she thought, ‘Damn this b*stard!’
However, she was not in the mood to scold him now.
She was sure that she ate something bad.
Eric sped all the way to the hospital. The doctor was ready to rush Selena into the emergency room.
Selena got her stomach pumped.
She looked wretched.
Even if the nurse noticed that Eric and Selena were the main characters in the headlines during the day, they did not dare to show their shock and were very professional.
Eric had been sitting outside. Although he did not say a word, his eyes were fixed on the door of the emergency room from time to time, and the worry in his eyes could not be concealed.
Everyone who passed by looked envious.
It was almost an hour before Selena came out with a pale face.
Selena was pushed to the VIP ward.
The attending physician breathed a sigh of relief.
“She ate some spoiled food and had mild food poisoning. It’s not serious. If you want to sue the restaurant, I will issue a pathology report as evidence.”
Eric nodded. “Okay.”
He was already furious.
He did not know where Selena went to eat barbecue. He wanted this unethical restaurant to close immediately!
“Okay. She can be discharged after a short observation. But you’ll have to wait until the patient wakes up. She might be groggy if you wake her up now.”
What the doctor said was simple and clear.
Eric knew that if he woke Selena up at this moment, she would take out all her anger on him.
He was not a fool.
Thus, the two of them stayed at the hospital overnight.
Eric took a nap on the sofa outside.
It was dawn when Selena woke up.
Aside from her pale lips, Selena’s complexion was much better than last night.
Selena opened her eyes, looked at the strange environment, and was in a trance for a moment.
Thinking about what happened last night, Selena suddenly came back to her senses.
Selena got out of bed, went out, and saw Eric, who was lying there. He looked flawless even in his sleep.
Eric had waited for her all night.
It turned out that he was not so heartless after all.
Selena thought they were even now.
She went over and nudged Eric’s shoulder. He woke up quickly.
“You’re awake? Are you still feeling sick? Should I call a doctor?”
Selena shook her head and showed a pale smile.
“No need. I’m just a little hungry. Shall we go back?”
Eric immediately sat up and nodded.
“Let’s go.”
Eric stood up, took her hand, touched her face, and said seriously, “It’s a good thing that you feel hungry.”
