"Sit tight. I'll take you to the hospital." Henry lowered her seat so that she could lie down slightly.
"I don't want to go to the hospital. Shane is already busy enough so let’s not bother him." Yvonne refused Henry's suggestion to go to the hospital.
Henry frowned. "You’re so thoughtful towards him."
Yvonne rolled her eyes. "Send me back to the family residence and find a family doctor."
"Okay. Sit tight." Henry urged without refusing her suggestion.
Yvonne hummed and closed her eyes.
Maybe it was because of the fever, or maybe it was the vibration of the car when it was moving, she felt even dizzier and was even getting motion sickness. She would only feel better when she closed her eyes. Otherwise, she would've probably thrown up already.
Henry watched her fall asleep and stepped on the accelerator. The car went faster as it sped forward.
An hour later, they arrived at the family residence.
Yvonne had already fallen asleep and Henry did not wake her up. He walked into the house with her in his arms.
Sue was startled when she saw the two of them. "Sir,
what happened to madam?"
"She's down with fever. Go get a doctor," Henry ordered Sue as he kept walking without slowing down.
Sue nodded quickly. "Okay, I'll go now."
After she said that, she quickly ran away.
Henry carried Yvonne back to the room and put her down. Elliot appeared at the door of the room while holding Theo.
"What’s wrong with Yvonne?" Elliot asked.
Henry was wiping Yvonne's face with a dry towel. " She got a fever because of the rain."
"Mom..." Theo called out.
Henry walked over and crouched down in front of Theo before touching his face. "Theo, Mommy's okay. The doctor will come over in a while to take a look at Mommy and she'll be fine. You can go out with Uncle now. I need to change Mommy's clothes."
"Mmhmm." Theo nodded and patted Elliot's thigh, indicating that Elliot could leave now.
Elliot flicked Theo's forehead. "You little fellow."
Theo wrinkled his little nose. "Uncle, bad!"
Elliot laughed out loud, "Little devil, you just called your own uncle bad. Just you wait and see how I’m going to teach you a lesson."
After he said that, he controlled the wheelchair and turned around to take Theo back to his room.
Henry looked at how Theo and his uncle were getting along well, and he smiled slightly.
After a while, the doctor came.
Henry led the doctor into the room.
He had changed Yvonne's clothes and dried her hair.
The doctor came to the bedside and checked on Yvonne.
When he was done, he opened his medicine box and took out a syringe.
Henry frowned slightly when he saw the silver needle. "An injection?"
"Yes. Madam has a high fever of 39 degrees and must b e given an injection to reduce her fever," the doctor replied.
Henry glanced at Yvonne and nodded slightly. "Be gentle then. Don't hurt her."
"Don't worry, Mr. Lancaster." After the doctor finished speaking, he flicked the syringe and stretched out his arm towards Yvonne.
After the injection, the doctor put a fever-cooling patch on Yvonne's forehead and left some medicine for Yvonne before leaving.
Henry looked at Yvonne as he sat by the bed. Her face was still flushed and hot, and he was very worried.
The current state of her body had deteriorated so badly that she caught a fever immediately after being i n the rain. It was obviously too abnormal.
It seemed like the kidney transplant surgery had to be done earlier.
As Henry thought about it, he took out his cell phone and called Shane's number. "Hello."
"What's the matter?" Shane's tired voice sounded on the other side of the phone.
Henry asked, "Can Yvonne's surgery be pushed forward?"
"What's the matter? Haven't we set the time to one week later?" Shane was a little puzzled.
Henry told him about Yvonne's fever after she was caught in the rain.
Shane frowned. "No! All the more reason why we shouldn’t bring the date forward. She can’t undergo surgery when she’s still down with a fever. You've got t o be kidding. We have to wait until she gets better."
"I understand." After Henry knew that Yvonne could not undergo the surgery when she was still down with a fever, he immediately hung up the phone.
Shane's eyebrows twitched. "Darn you, Henry!"
