"Miss Leslie has suffered an emotional shock. This is why her eyes are bloodshot. Her eyeballs are so congested that there is an 80 percent chance that there will be a significant effect on some of the nerves in her brain."
Both the eyes and the brain were very important organs. Although the family doctor did not say it very clearly, Mr. Leslie already had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, the family doctor said, "The eyeball congestion has damaged most of the retina. When Miss Leslie comes to her senses, her vision will be affected and she may become blind."
"Her brain will also be damaged. Of course, this requires a detailed examination. However, when the eye nerves are damaged like this, the central nervous that connect the brain must also be damaged. It's just that the extent of the damage is unknown."
"If it's serious..."
The family doctor did not continue, but sighed helplessly.
Although he didn't finish his words, what he meant was very obvious. The damage to her retina meant she could be blind, and her brain was also damaged. Wasn't she going to... be a fool?
This terrible result shocked everyone again.
Mr. Leslie was dumbfounded.
As for Derek, even if he knew this result, he would not care about it, or perhaps, this was the result he wanted.
When he was angered, a slap on the wrist would do nothing to quell his anger.
In the car, Nora was still wearing headphones. She lay in his arms with her eyes closed, motionless. Her face was still pale, and it looked like she had fallen asleep.
However, Derek knew that she was not asleep, but it was as if Nora had not heard anything from the moment he began to deal with the three to the moment he finished.
There was only one possibility that Nora was lost in her own thoughts, and her senses shunned everything outside, which made him frown.
At night, in the dark room, Nora was lying on the bed alone. She was not sleeping well at the moment. In her dream, she was running non-stop in a misty forest.
Behind her, she could clearly heard the rustling sound. When she looked back a little, she saw a huge boa constrictor hovering with its head held high.
Its cold eyes were fixed on her, and it flicked its tongue fiercely. When it saw her, it opened its mouth without hesitation. Its sharp teeth glowed in the night, and its blood-red mouth was like an abyss.
"No, don't chase me, ah..."
With a scream, she opened her eyes in sweat and suddenly sat up from the bed. She looked frightened and alarmed.
She did not see that a person had been sitting in the dark on the sofa in the room. When he heard her voice, he immediately rushed to the bed and hugged her in his arms.
Derek was worried about her sleeping alone, afraid that she would be scared, so he decided to watch her sleep tonight. From the way Nora looked, she must have had a nightmare.
"Nora, I'm here. Don't be afraid. It's just a dream. It's all fake."
Nora slowly calmed down when she looked at Derek and the surroundings. She remembered everything that happened at the party.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and opened them again, "Thank you. I'm much better." Her voice was hoarse and she coughed lightly.
Derek fed her a few sips of water and looked at her with a straight face. After putting down the cup, he wrapped his arms around her waist and rolled over to lay on the bed with her in his arms.
"I'm here with you. Don't worry, I won't do anything."
His voice was low, and he did not allow her to refuse him. He tightened his grip domineeringly, and they hugged each other intimately.
