Only after Roxanne had swallowed the remaining antidote did Lucian finally let go of her.
Everyone also heaved a sigh of relief.
It was apparent that the antidote had lessened Roxanne's suffering, though her brows remained slightly furrowed.
Madilyn's tone also softened significantly. “The antidote is taking effect.” After saying that, she raised her head and glanced at the specialists on the other side. “Thank you, everyone. You can all go and get some rest. I'll handle it from here.”
The specialists, who had indeed been working nonstop for several days, excused themselves and turned to leave after hearing what she said.
Only Roxanne, Madilyn, and Lucian were left in the ward in the end.
The situation earlier was so chaotic that Elektra stayed at the doorway, not daring to go closer.
Now that Roxanne's condition had stabilized and everyone had left, she slowly made her way over to the bed and stopped, curiously staring at the person lying there.
The woman on the bed had an exquisite face. Even though she was unconscious and ghastly pale, she gave off a comfortable and pleasant feeling to anyone that looked at her.
Even Elektra, who was meeting Roxanne for the first time, could not help but feel awful for her after seeing her and remembering what she had been through earlier.
She was even more shocked to see Lucian feeding Roxanne the antidote without a care for his safety.
I can't believe he can love someone to such an extent.
At the same time, she also fully understood why Aubree had failed after waiting for six years.
In the face of such love, she has no chance of winning at all.
After glancing at Roxanne, who was still unconscious, and then at Lucian, who could not conceal his worry at her side, Elektra came to terms with it.
