Richard could no longer hold himself back after hearing that. He leaned over and kissed Pearl.
Pearl responded, albeit with little experience. Their kiss deepened, becoming more passionate.
When they were fully engrossed, Richard pulled away.
Confused, Pearl licked her lips, hinting at her dissatisfaction.
"Okay, that's it. I'll take you to the hospital."
"Why do I need to go to the hospital?" Pearl looked at Richard, her body feeling feverish. She felt a burning sensation, her mind clouded.
"It's not the right time. We should wait until we're both ready for this." Despite his desire, Richard restrained himself, knowing Pearl wasn't thinking clearly. Though they were technically married, he wanted to respect her.
"Okay." Pearl seemed to understand and lowered her head in disappointment.
Richard admired his restraint as they quickly reached the hospital.
The doctor immediately recognized Pearl's condition. "What happened? How did she end up like this?" He eyed Richard suspiciously. "Couples shouldn't experiment like this. This drug is dangerous. Overdosing could be fatal."
The doctor wondered where Richard got the drug, which was illegal and not sold in the market.
Richard cleared his throat and clarified, "No, it was an accident. I brought her here as soon as I realized."
