Chapter 194

Chapter 194 Merely an Unforeseen circumstance After finishing the chicken soup, Rosalie glanced at the time. She could probably still make it if she rushed to the research institute now.

“My fever has subsided. Lisa, could you please help me get discharged from the hospital? I still have work to do.”

Letting a senior such as Leon perform an operation had already delayed progress on the research institute‘s side of things. Rosalie did not want their research progress to fall behind because of her. Lisa was hesitant.

“Miss, you should stay in the hospital for another day to let them observe your condition. I understand how busy you are during this time, but your sudden bout of fever yesterday was no doubt due to overwork. Right now, the fever has just subsided, but you‘re already in a hurry to go back to work again. I’m just afraid that your body won‘t be able to withstand all this.”

She had not spent a long time at Rosalie‘s house, but during that time, she had witnessed the immense amount of workload that Rosalie had to handle.

If it was not for Rosalie falling ill yesterday, she would have even thought that this woman‘s body was made of iron. Every day, she worked tirelessly like the turning gears of a clock, and when she arrived home, she had her children to care for. Even so, Lisa had never heard her complain about being tired.

After being with them in this period, Lisa had come to truly regard them as family. She felt her heart ache for Rosalie, a woman who had to raise two children on her own. Seeing Rosalie sick like this felt like she was looking at her own daughter–it made her feel like she had to take good care of Rosalie.

Without much thought, Rosalie lifted the blanket in an attempt to get out of bed. “It‘s no big deal, I‘m already used to it. Yesterday was merely an unforeseen circumstance.”

Hearing this, the expression on Byron‘s face darkened.

He still remembered this woman‘s outstanding resume. What kind of life had she led when she was abroad to be able to achieve all that in just six years?

Lisa was still worried. After all, she did not hear what the doctor had said yesterday, and she did not know how Rosalie‘s condition was currently.

After a moment of hesitation, seeing that Rosalie had already sat up from her bed, Lisa looked at Byron for help.

She did not know why, but for some reason, she just had a feeling that maybe Rosalie would listen to this man.

Byron frowned, then strode to the side of the hospital bed and looked down at Rosalie.” Yesterday, the doctor said that if you want to be discharged from the hospital, you‘ll need to go through another check–up.”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Lisa and instructed, “Call for the doctor to come and check up on her.” Lisa breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly left to call for the doctor.

Rosalie frowned in disapproval. “No need for that, I know my own body‘s condition.”

She was a doctor herself and understood the severity of her own condition.

She had merely caught a fever, and now that the fever had subsided, she was in good enough condition to be discharged from the hospital. Just then, Byron spoke, and the man‘s question rang in her ears, “If you knew, then why were you so ill that you were passed out at home and couldn‘t even get out of bed?”

Hearing this, Rosalie choked slightly.

When Lucian and Nox heard Byron‘s words, they nodded solemnly. “Mommy, let the doctor do another check–up, okay?”

Seeing the worried look on the kids’ faces; Rosalie had no choice but to swallow her refusal and wait for the doctor to arrive for a check–up.

Soon, Lisa brought the doctor in. After a round of check–ups, the doctor looked around the room, and his eyes finally landed on the man who brought Rosalie here yesterday. “The patient‘s condition is fine, and she can be discharged from the hospital. However, after discharge, she should take note to get plenty of rest. After all, one‘s health is their greatest asset.”

Byron nodded, then glanced at Rosalie.

When she met his gaze, Rosalie felt a sense of guilt for some reason. She lowered her gaze and responded, “Thank you, doctor, I‘ll keep that in mind.” The doctor exhorted her with some precautionary platitudes, before turning around and leaving After confirming that Rosalie was all right, Lisa could finally go through with the discharge procedures without worries.
