“Norma! How did this child get a fever while under your care?” Torsten questioned in a displeased tone while turning around with furrowed brows.
Hearing that the child was unwell, Norma immediately put her phone down and reached for his
forehead. He does have a fever—a pretty high one at that.
Yet, she glanced at the boy. “Is he intellectually challenged? Why is he still sitting here and playing when he's got such a high fever? He never even cried,” she commented with a frown.
The professor's face clouded over as he heard that. Intellectually challenged? The kid's just fine! I ran tests on him myself. He's healthy and will be the perfect experimental subject, but I'm going to get skewed results if I conduct the experiments on him now.
“He's perfectly normal,” Torsten huffed. “Quick, go get some medication that will lower his fever.”
The child's fever was so high that there were no other suitable methods to reduce his body temperature.
Moreover, since they didn't have any medication for children here, they would have to buy some at a
pharmacy.
Norma looked visibly upset. How dare he talk to me like that? Am I not a professor too? Despite her indignation, the woman did as told. Nothing else could be done, given that they were the only ones here.
After returning from the pharmacy and giving the boy his medication, she turned to Torsten and suggested, “There's only the two of us here. We can't manage everything on our own. How about we hire a few more doctors?”
“Hire more doctors?” The man frowned. “That won't do. What if—” “But we're going to need more subjects. How will we cope when we bring in more kids?” Norma emphasized.
