Sebastian raised his hand and slapped himself.
Half an hour later, Sabrina called again.
“I found her. She was at the beach. Someone rescued her.”
Sebastian’s hand on the steering wheel trembled at the news, causing him to almost crash into the railing.
He had never thought that Sasha would act like this one day.
Sebastian felt as though he was losing his mind. He stepped on the gas pedal, hoping to arrive at her city as soon as possible. The moment he reached, he drove straight to the local hospital.
“Fortunately, the patient was rescued quickly. And because she wasn’t in the water for too long, she’s doing fine now. But I noticed something about her body.”
“What is it?”
“We’ve conducted a checkup, and it revealed that the nerves in both her legs had no reaction. Also, many of her major blood vessels from her brain to the lumbar spine suffered severe blockage and curvature. Especially the one leading to her brain. I assumed that she must be blind, am I right?”
The doctor’s statement was encountered with silence. Sabrina lowered her head. For the first time in her life, she felt uneasy.
Sebastian had arrived just in time to hear the doctor’s words, and he fainted on the spot.
“Mr. Hayes!” Karl shouted in shock.
After resting in a ward for a long while, Sebastian slowly regained consciousness. He looked at the doctor in front of him.
“You’re awake. Seems like you’ve been pushing your body to exhaustion, and you haven’t consumed any food or drink for quite some time. You should take care of yourself,” the doctor explained.
Sebastian wasn’t listening.
He licked his dry lip and turned to gaze at Sasha who was lying beside him. “What is her condition from what you mentioned earlier?”
“You mean her?”
“Yes.”
“To put it simply, she has a vascular lesion. The drugs administered to her that paralyzed her legs shouldn’t have caused this. Unfortunately, I can’t figure out the actual cause.”
The doctor had a look of utter helplessness.
Sebastian stated as he recalled, “She’s also a doctor.”
“What? She’s a doctor?”
