The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 466

Chapter 466

Isaac's headaches had worsened due to prolonged insomnia and overdosing on sleeping pills.

James rushed him to the hospital the instant they disembarked.

After examination, the doctor told James that Isaac's condition was due to overdosing on sleeping pills, and there might be more side effects if he continued taking it.

The doctor then administered a sedative to help him sleep, while James left and called Stan on the walkway.

"He's admitted now, and the doctor told him to stop taking sleeping pills and try to sleep naturally instead. But we know his temper..."

James was alone in Minerva with Isaac. Having no ideas, he had to call Stan to discuss.

While he stood by the window, Irene arrived. She was wearing a lab coat, a cap, and a face mask, and spoke in fluent Minerverse, ’I'll be checking on the patient now."

James quickly told Stan, "Got to go. I'll call you again later."

Walking over and noticing that she was a woman, he asked, "Wasn't he checked already?"

'1'11 be observing how deep his sleep is," she replied. "Please don't disturb.'

James nodded, and Irene entered without further questions thanks to her profession.

This was actually another hospital affiliated to the Mead Clinic. Irene spotted Isaac when he was brought in, but with another doctor seeing him, she could only take up his aftercare.

Naturally, she was not here to watch his sleep condition-the sedative that the previous doctor gave Isaac was enough to ensure that he would be sleeping for over 24 hours.

She just wanted to see him.

She quietly sat beside his bed.

It had been seven months.

Time somehow moved as slow as it was quick.

She lowered her gaze, her curled eyelashes twitching and soon dampened by her tears.

She leaned her face against his chest.

'I missed you," she said, as if to herself. "I know you're not heartless."

Harvey had told her that Isaac refused to get involved with the fully artificial heart project, but she knew that Harvey was slandering him.

He was a man who could accept a woman he did not love, even playing the role of a husband for the sake of his son-his sense of responsibility was there for all to see.

'1 don't know how you got chronic insomnia, but I'll do my best to treat you, ’ she said, rising to her feet and pulling his blanket up to his shoulders.

She then left reluctantly-even if she was a doctor, staying too long and drawing James's suspicion would be problematic.

As she left Isaac's ward, James promptly approached her. "How is he?’
