Chapter 12 Ms. Geller
In the next few days, Sherman submitted his resume through several recruiting websites, but no company was willing to hire him.
Just because he was Sherman, Brenna's son.
He felt frustrated and became quite decadent these days.
Gianna had been going to Rheinsville Municipal Hospital these days to treat Taryn.
After receiving acupuncture treatment and taking Gianna's pills for several days, Taryn felt much better.
The toxin was excreted from her body gradually.
The other day, Gianna did acupuncture for Taryn as usual.
After finishing it, she put away the acupuncture bag and said to Taryn, "Instead of acupuncture treatment, I will use ointment tomorrow. This is the most critical step. It will hurt very much, and there is no painkiller. You must bear the pain."
Taryn pressed her lips and then nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, Gianna. I will definitely bear it."
In order not to make those who loved her feel worried, no matter how painful it might be, she must endure the pain.
Gianna nodded and said to Erica, "Make porridge for her tomorrow morning. Let her drink plenty of water."
"Okay." Erica didn't know why she had promised Gianna to help her treat Ms. Finley and kept it from Lloyd. In the past few days, she had clearly noticed that Ms. Finley was on the mend.
She thought that perhaps Gianna could cure Ms. Finley!
Gianna exhorted again and again and then left the hospital.
Half an hour later, Lloyd, Murray, and Irvin returned.
Taryn was sitting by the window and watching an animation.
"Lloyd." She looked up and saw Lloyd, smiling at him joyfully.
Lloyd pushed his wheelchair over and gently touched her head. "How are you feeling today?"
"Quite good. I feel like I can be like a normal person soon," Taryn said with a smile and blinked.
She really wanted to tell Lloyd that Gianna was treating her.
But she had promised Gianna that she would tell no one about it.
Noticing she was in a good mood, Lloyd felt relieved.
After a moment of silence, he said to Murray, "Go ask Joey if Taryn can be discharged."
"No, I can't be discharged!" Taryn said anxiously upon hearing this.
"Don't you dislike hospitals?" Lloyd slowly raised his hand and gently touched Taryn's small face with his fingertips, saying, "It's too noisy here. It's adverse to your rest."
Although it was a VIP ward, the hospital was not so quiet.
"But I think it's great here!" Taryn blinked her clear eyes and grabbed Lloyd's arm, acting intimately. "Lloyd, I want to stay here."
If she went back, Gianna would not be able to treat her illness.
Lloyd looked at Taryn with his beautiful eyes. He kept tapping his slender fingers on his wheelchair thoughtfully.
After a while, he slightly said, "Okay."
"Thank you, Lloyd." Taryn smiled sweetly.
After she fell asleep, Lloyd called out Erica.
At the entrance of the ward, he asked in a low voice, "Why did Taryn suddenly want to stay in the hospital? Has she ever seen a stranger?"
Because of her illness, Taryn disliked hospitals and Joey who treated her.
When he was not present at ordinary times, Taryn refused to receive treatment.
However, she offered to here this time. He thought something must be wrong.
Seeing Lloyd's deep eyes, Erica felt a bit guilty. She pretended to be calm and said, "Ms. Finley was talking about Ms. Geller who saved her every day. She probably wants to wait for Ms. Geller in the hospital."
