Chapter 1358 Helpless, the nurses had to help Frank get to the ICU, where Faye listlessly laid in bed, her breathing labored.
Faye lifted her head and looked at the door when she heard it opened. She thought it was Charmine with her antidote, but she was instead greeted with the sight of a nurse helping Frank to get in.
"Brother..."
Seeing him, Faye felt wronged. She began to pant and wail, "Brother... I'm about to die. I don't want to die! I'm only twenty-one...
I donât want to die...!"
Hearing her heaving, Frank turned around and frowned. 'What happened?
How did you end up like this?"
Faye thought of her misfortune, and her pants grew erratic.
She gripped her chest for a moment before saying, "Iâll tell you the truth, Brother, but don't blame me..."
An unsettling feeling welled up within Frank at her words. This meant that she had done something for Charmine to treat her in such a manner.
Faye began, "A person manipulated me to plant listening devices in Charmine's room, which she eventually found out. I do feel apologetic, and that's why I bought her a pot of flowers, but not only did she turn me down, she even kicked the pot! It turns out that the pot of flowers and the listening devices had poison on them, and it inflicted me badly...! Waa.J" 1 Faye held her swollen face as she squalled, "I really don't want to die, Brother!"
Frank frowned with anger and pity. "How are you so foolish to listen to the others?â "Brother...! Donât beat me up for it! I'm already in bad shape, and I'll die without an antidote...!" she sobbed.
Frank felt bitter. He did not expect the two of them to end up this way. He was fine, but Faye...
"Do we have other options?" he asked.
"No!"
Faye, seeing that Frank did not scold her, added, "It's all Charmine's fault! If she didn't kick the pot of flowers, I wouldn't have been poisoned! This woman is too evil! I merely got close to Anthony in the forest, and she wants me dead! You have to get her for me, Brother!"
Frank frowned. How could she still blame Charmine at this stage? He wanted to say something but decided against it, listening to her harrowing voice.
At that, the door opened abruptly, and in came Charmine.
Faye's blood pressure rose the moment she spotted her.
She pointed at her shakily. âYou're an evil woman, Charmine! Get out of my sight! I donât want to see you!â
Charmine, however, shrugged her off and turned to Frank instead. "Why are you here, Frank?"
Had he found out what happened?
Frank looked confused and helpless. "I heard about Faye, so I came to have a look."
Charmine frowned. "Your operation-" "Cancel it for now."
Charmine's heart sank. Her fear was realized at last.
They finally hired Jennie, and if they postponed it...
Frank knew what she was going to say, thus he gently reiterated, "Faye's matter is more urgent. Why don't we settle her matters so I can be assured?"
Faye heard what her brother had said and scoffed at Charmine, "Charmine, why are you pretending to be a good person? If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be in this state. Brother wouldn't have to cancel his operation too! You ruined everything! Why do you act as if you're worried now?"
When the nurses by the side heard this, they scowled at Charmine and gossiped.
"It's true that Faye overdid it, but Charmine caused kidney failure to this young lady?"
