Chapter 972: Chapter 972

Even though the doctor was quite experienced, he couldn’t stop the sigh that escaped his lips when looking at the miracle that I was awake.

“Am I hallucinating? This is a miracle!”

Both of them approached me together, intending to give me a series of physical examinations.

However, I was incredibly worried because Debra wasn’t here.

I couldn’t remain composed at all.

Every time I thought about how she might have landed in trouble for saving me, my heart seemed to break.

In such a moment of desperation, I couldn’t sit around and subject myself to being examined.

I yanked out the IV needle and removed the jumble of instruments attached to my body.

“Alpha Caleb, don’t do that!” the doctor shrieked and shot his hand out to stop me.

“You’ve sustained serious injuries.

You haven’t recovered yet!”

But I was faster than them.

I jumped out of the bed and dashed to the door.

I didn’t feel like anything was amiss with my body, but the doctor and nurse continued shouting behind me.

“Alpha, come back and lie down! What if your injuries worsen?”

They had the impression that I was a fragile patient who could die any moment.

But I felt absolutely no discomfort.

I had the same strength as before.

I ignored their pleas and went straight to the corridor.

Judging from the doctor’s and nurse’s reactions in the room, I guessed that Debra’s secret hadn’t been revealed yet.

Otherwise, when I inquired about her whereabouts, they would have either looked fearful or disgusted.

Since her identity was still concealed, she was probably unconscious.

That was the only reason she wouldn’t have been at my side.

The hospital only had a few VIP rooms.

I would find her soon enough.

But as I lifted my foot to take a step forward, I saw Melany rushing towards me.

She was also surprised when she spotted me.

“Caleb? You’re awake?”

However, her astonishment was only visible for a second before she regained her composure.

She shifted her attention to the doctor and nurse behind me who were highly anxious and explained, “Don’t worry.

This is just the side effect of the new medicine.

You can go back now.

I will examine Caleb myself.

”

Then, she pushed me back to the room.

I was desperate to see Debra and didn’t really want to go with her.

But considering the doctor and nurse behind me, I had no choice but to follow Melany for the time being.

After returning to the room, I asked impatiently, “What do you intend to do, Melany? I’m going to look for Debra.

I need to know how she is right now!”

Melany didn’t take her eyes off me as she picked up an instrument from the tray and said calmly, “Before you visit Debra, I need to ensure that you’re healthy, lest you collapse in front of her.

What’s worse, if you have any bad after-effects, you will have to suffer for the rest of your life from them.

”

While she was explaining this to me, she gave me a quick examination.

“What? You have recovered completely!” Melany’s astonished expression matched the sheer disbelief in her voice.

“You sustained such severe injuries that you almost died.

But now, you only have a small wound on your chest.

How is this possible?”

Her comment convinced me further that Debra must have saved me.

And that increased my urge to see her.

Debra must have paid a tremendous price to save me from dying.

I couldn’t imagine the amount of pain she must have suffered for me.

I said anxiously, “You’ve finished your examination.

Can I leave now?”

Without waiting for her answer, I put on my hospital gown, ready to get out of bed.

However, Melany stopped me.

“Caleb, calm down.

” Melany’s eyebrows furrowed and her helplessness crept into her voice.

“Debra is just unconscious due to exhaustion.

There is nothing wrong with her as such.

But if you keep making a big deal like this, she will be discovered right away.

”

“Be discovered?”

“What else do you think will happen?” Melany rubbed her forehead.

“Debra used a special strength to knock Brian away that day.

And then you came back to life.

Several people witnessed this and began to suspect her of being a witch.

”

My heart stuttered.

After considering this for a while, I asked hesitantly, “Do you already know who she is, Melany?”

With a sigh, she replied, “Yes.

After you and Debra passed out, Carlos realized that others were going to discover her secret, so he admitted everything to me and asked me to cover for her.

”
