Chapter 845 It Is Impossible
Notwithstanding, the current circumstance was a stark contrast to the previous one. Grandpa was mainly suppressing the poison in his body many years ago, but I have to expel it now! The very moment he was injected with that particular drug, Pandora’s box was opened. Even though it managed to be closed in the end, we still can’t figure out what life-threatening elements had leaked before that!
Wearing a look of sheer solemnity, Luna emphasized hesitantly, “Mr. Samuel, I have to be frank with you… I can only give it a try at most. But I can’t assure you it’ll be as effective as before…”
“Then keep trying till it’s successful! I want you to leave no stones unturned to suppress the poison in my body,” Samuel cut her off as he gazed at her with utter frigidness in his eyes.
In an instant, Luna tensed up. Since it was her responsibility, she had no choice but to reassure him, “I will.”
“I promise to be cooperative throughout the treatment, but you must keep things under wraps from everyone, especially Nat. You’re one of the very few doctors I can trust for the time being. Thus, I hope you won’t let me down,” Samuel stated resolutely. A glint of inexplicit emotion flickered in his eyes.
“Okay, I get it.” Luna tried to feel his pulse again before telling him earnestly, “Mr. Samuel, I need to focus on preparing the herbs needed for the herbal therapy these two days. I’ll contact you once everything is ready.”
“All right,” the latter responded briefly and got to his feet to leave the guesthouse.
Coincidentally, he bumped into Steven, who brought along breakfast, upon leaving the place.
“Luna, today I…” Steven’s voice trailed off at the sight of Samuel stepping out of the guesthouse. “Sam, why are you here?”
Devoid of expression, Samuel replied casually, “I’m here to look for Luna. I have something to discuss with her.”
“Oh, I see!” Steven nodded.
Samuel shot him a meaningful glance and frowned. “You have been dropping by a lot to see Luna, haven’t you?”
Steve refuted, “Erm… not as often as you think. After all, Luna is our guest and has traveled all the way from Greenview. Since you’re occupied, I’ll help to entertain her with hospitality on behalf of the Bowers family. There’s nothing wrong with that, right? But Sam, why are you suddenly asking me this?”
“From today onwards, try not to drop by to look for her too often,” Samuel uttered expressionlessly.
“Huh?” Steven was puzzled.
“I’ll see her more often from now on. Anyway, I’ve got to get going to the office,” Samuel mumbled and left.
Steven was utterly speechless as he gazed at Samuel’s retreating figure. What did Sam mean? Did he remind me not to drop by too often as he will need to see her frequently? Since when did they start to get so closely acquainted with each other?
Not to mention, Sam and Luna don’t need to liaise with each other at work. Hmm! Unequivocally, a man tends to drop by a woman’s place frequently because he has feelings for her!
Steven almost slapped his own mouth when the idea popped up in his mind. How preposterous! It’s impossible!
How’s it possible that Sam fell for another woman when he’s even willing to risk his life for Natalie? Furthermore, he’s in the midst of preparation to propose to her!
After letting out self-deprecating laughs, Steven shrugged his shoulders and did not continue dwelling on it.
Seconds later, he still stepped into the guesthouse with the food and had breakfast with Luna as planned.
On the other hand, Natalie did not head straight for Dream Corporation after breakfast. She went to the hospital instead.
That was the first time she visited Benjamin ever since he was hospitalized.
In the meantime, the latter was moving slowly with a crutch outside the ward.
He was stunned when Natalie came into view.
The latter lifted the thermal food jar in her hand and chuckled. “My goodness! Why did your jaw drop when you saw me? We were comrades going through life and death moments together, weren’t we? I didn’t visit you earlier, but it doesn’t mean I’m not concerned about you.”
