Her Cancellation of the Engagement novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86 Ms. Pyne Is in Danger

In Judd's mansion...

Lilian had been on the medicine prescribed by Alisa for three days, but her condition was far from improving.

She was very weak. She still had a high fever and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea.

Both Nyla and Ellen were worried sick.

Right after their family doctor gave fever-reducing medicine to Ellen, Nyla asked anxiously, "Dr. Mosley, how's Lilian doing? Can her fever be reduced?"

"It doesn't look goo. Ms. Pyne has had a high fever for the past three days. Normally, once the fever subsides, it shouldn't return so quickly. However, within seven to eight hours of taking the medicine, she had a fever again. The fever-reducing medication doesn't seem to be working for her today."

Dr. Mosley explained seriously, "Moreover, she's been vomiting and having diarrhea. If this continues, Ms. Pyne's life is at risk. I would suggest taking her to the hospital."

"But Ms. Geller claimed that this is normal for it indicates that the toxins in Lilian's body are being expelled. She advised us to treat the fever first and apply the medicinal paste once the fever subsides. This is a crucial step in treating Lilian's face."

Indeed, Ellen had made several phone calls to Alisa over the past couple of days. At first, Alisa patiently explained that Lilian was detoxing, and fever was a normal part of the healing process. However, as time went on, Alisa's patience waned, and she even stopped picking up the calls.

Ellen was angry with Alisa, but she had to suppress her anger for the sake of her daughter's life.

Ellen was worried as she looked at Lilian lying on the bed.

However, Ellen knew how important healing her face was to Lilian.

During these painful days when she was disfigured, Lilian endured immense humiliation and lived like an empty shell. Ellen couldn't bear to see her daughter suffering like this.

"Her life is hanging on by a thread, and you're still focused on this?" Nyla said in a stern voice, "Our priority should be to save Lilian's life. Alisa doesn't look like is a legitimate doctor and has no proper medical credentials. How can she treat Lilian? We might have been fooled by her."

"I don't think so. There were many witnesses that day, and they confirmed that Alisa had healed Taryn's face. Mom, I believe it's worth a try. As you know, Lilian's life is a living hell. Only when her face is healed can she be happy again. Let's be patient and observe if Lilian's fever subsides. If not, then we can ask Alisa to come here and take a look."

Now, at this critical juncture, she didn't want to give up.

"You're being foolish!" Nyla scolded, "Lilian is dying, and you're still waiting for Alisa? Are you going to be satisfied until you put your daughter's life in danger?"

"Mom!" Ellen cried out and said in tears, "Lilian is my only daughter. How could I bear to watch her die? But seeing her in such agony is heartbreaking too. This is her last chance. I don't want to give it up."

As they argued, Dr. Mosley cut in, "Could you show me the prescription that Ms. Geller gave? If everything seems okay, then perhaps we can wait a bit longer to see if the fever is reduced."

Ellen nodded and quickly went to fetch the prescription.

After carefully examining the prescription, Dr. Mosley remained silent for a while.

A sense of unease washed over Ellen. She asked, "Is there any problem?"

Dr. Mosley shook his head and replied, "For now, it seems fine. The prescription is for detoxification. But there's something that doesn't quite add up, though I don't know what it is."

After a brief pause, Dr. Mosley continued, "Let's wait for another hour. If Ms. Pyne's fever doesn't go down by then, we should consider taking her to the hospital. Her condition is deteriorating rapidly. I can only ensure that she can hang in there for the next two hours, but delaying further might become risky."
