Chapter 743
Soon after, a doctor entered. Upon seeing Daniel resting peacefully, he commented, “Looks like it’s having some effect.”
After glancing at Daniel’s lower body, he added, “But it’s not entirely satisfactory. Make sure he stays hydrated. Allow some time for the drug’s effect to wear off.”
The doctor left after giving his instructions.
Sienna quickly fetched a glass of water. She discreetly glanced at Daniel’s lower body and noticed a slight bulge under the thick hospital blanket. She silently cursed Vivian for being such a bitch. “Daniel, have some water,” Sienna whispered gently into his ear.
Daniel stirred from his drowsiness and sat up. Sienna rushed to support his back.
“Are you still feeling uncomfortable?” Sienna asked, her voice laced with concern.
Daniel remained silent. After finishing the water, he lay back down, closed his eyes, and whispered, “Sisi, I’m feeling better now. You should head home and get some rest.”
“I want to stay here with you,” Sienna insisted.
With his eyes closed, Daniel murmured helplessly, “You should go back.”
“I’m worried something might happen to you. There’s no one here to take care of you.”
“There’re doctors and nurses here. I’ll be fine.”
“But I want to be here with you.”
Daniel smiled weakly as he slowly opened his eyes. He looked at her intensely and said, “I may feel drained, but there’s still a spark in me. You’re like fuel next to a pile of embers. One wrong move and I could burst into flames.”
Sienna couldn’t resist laughing. “You’re quite the wordsmith with your metaphors!”
Daniel closed his eyes again, feeling helpless.
Sienna didn’t want to disturb his rest any further. She decided to leave, thinking her presence might be bothering him.
“Okay then. I’ll go back now. Just call me if you need anything.”
“Sure,” Daniel replied.
After Sienna left the ward and rode the elevator down to the lobby, she spotted Vivian in a wheelchair, receiving medication while being wheeled by Molly.
She swiftly hid behind a nearby
pillar. When she noticed Vivian’s apparent injury to her waist and legs, a feeling of satisfaction washed over her She believed Daniel must have confronted Vivian.
Sienna clenched her teeth in anger and glared daggers at Vivian. Vivian’s outfit beneath her coat was revealing, and her makeup was heavily applied. However, Vivian’s lack of fame meant that her sunglasses were sufficient to hide her identity from most people.
Sienna waited until Vivian and Molly
had left before cautiously emerging
from behind the pillar. As she stepped out of the entrance, she
suddenly questioned why she had been hiding in the first place.
Vivian was the one who had caused the problem, so why was Sienna feeling afraid? Why did she feel the urge to hide herself?
After a moment of contemplation,
Sienna realized that deep down, she was afraid of Vivian discovering that Daniel hadn’t sought her out to counteract the effects of the drug.
Even more troubling, she feared Vivian finding out that Daniel was also receiving treatment at the same hospital.
After some time, Sienna exited the hospital and stood by the roadside, waiting for a ride.
Suddenly, a black MPV approached, slowing to a stop before her.
Sienna warily took a step back.
The door slid open, revealing Vivian’s haughty demeanor. Her gaze was icy as she peered at Sienna with an air of superiority. “What are you doing here? And where’s Daniel?”
