Chapter 397
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
âYou guys must remember, his health is a bit off. So itâs best not to give him any more shocks. Plus, he should eat more nourishing food and not pull all-nighters.â The doctor carefully reminded them, and Matt quickly nodded, âGot it, doctor..â
âOnce the patient wakes up, he can be discharged; he doesnât have any major issues Before the doctor could finish, Clara suddenly walked over and grabbed him, âDoctor, I want to ask you something. Is his condition like heâs been poisoned? Like some rare poison?â
âPoisoned?â The doctor was taken aback by her question, âHowâs that possible? Weâve already done a blood test on him and found no signs of poisoning.â âNo poisoning? No way.â She clenched her fists, quickly took out her phone, and dialed Elioâs number. After several rings, Elioâs voice came through.
âWhatâs up? Need my help with something?â
Clara hurriedly said, âI want to ask you, could Leahâs medicine cause fainting?â
âWell, Iâve only seen seriously ill people react. Theyâre pretty much snoozing 24/7, and then they never wake up again.â
Clara was taken aback and paused momentarily before saying, âThen, can it be detected from the blood that theyâve been poisoned?â
Elio responded without hesitation, âDefinitely not! Itâs our familyâs secret formula; if it could be easily detected, it wouldnât be a secret potion. Why are you suddenly asking this?â
âEmmett has fainted! I saw it with my own eyes.â
There was silence on the phone for a moment before he said, âHe went to find you?
âMm-hmm.â
âWell, he didnât do anything to you, did he? Where are you? Iâll come find you right away!â
Clara bit her lip softly and said, âDonât come. I donât want things to get more complicated. Iâm afraid Emmett will take revenge on you.â
âIâm not afraid of revenge!â
âStop talking; Iâm already very upset. Donât get involved anymore; it will only make things harder for me.â
With that, Clara hung up the phone.
Looking up, Matt had already wheeled Emmett back to the ward, leaving her alone in the empty hallway.
Clara looked at the red light of the emergency room that had already gone out, and she secretly vowed never to let Emmett fall into a permanent sleep!
In the ward.
The smell of disinfectant was everywhere.
Emmett slowly opened his eyes. The white ceiling in front of him was so dazzling that he immediately frowned. Mattâs concerned voice came from his side, âMr. Melendez, youâre finally awake! How are you feeling? Iâll go get the doctor right away.
âWhereâs Clara?â
The first thing Emmett asked when he woke up was where Clara was.
Matt was taken aback, slightly turning his face.
âIâm here.â
Claraâs voice rang out. Hearing that, Emmettâs expression finally eased a bit.
He tried to sit up, and Matt immediately assisted tiim, âMr. Melendez, the doctor advises you to rest a bit more! Later, Iâll have him come over and check on you; if everything is okay, you can be discharged.â
âNo need. I can be discharged now! Take Clara home.â Emmett waved his hand, only glanced at Clara, and didnât linger.
âI canât go back with you!â Clara stubbornly stood her ground, even involuntarily holding onto the closet handle.
Even Matt couldnât help but speak, âClara, Mr. Melendez just woke up; can you not piss him off anymore? You heard the doctorâs advice just now, didnât you?â
