Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 386

Chapter 386

“No way” Maddox glanced at Dr. Foster and added, “Doctor Foster, if Astrid really can save Joana, cut the snarky comments, will you?

“Snarky? You’re accusing me of being snarky? Dr. Foster, being the expert he was, wasn’t used to having someone challenge him this directly He got a bit heated, “Mr. Maddox, Astrid is a pretty lady, is that why you trust her? Is that why you’re defending her like this?”

Dr. Foster’s assistant Ramsey, immediately jumped to his defense, Mr. Maddox, Dr Foster is a world renowned expert His reputation isn’t something a mere actress like Astrid can measure up to, right?” “Listen here, Mr. Maddox, Joana’s in a critical condition. If things go south, it’s gonna be a hot mess for your crew, and Astrid won’t be able to wriggle out of this one!”

“Heck, if she can really save someone, I’ll eat this snake skin!”

Odell, who had been silent this whole time, glanced at the pile of snake skin on the ground. He lazily raised his eyes and said, “Remember what you just said. No take backs‘

Ramsey sensing some deeper meaning in Odell’s words, asked, “What do you mean by that?‘

“Heh” Odell chuckled coldly. “Exactly what it sounds like.”

“They’re back, they’re back! A staff member shouted. Everyone looked towards the cave entrance and saw Astrid and the others returning with a bunch of herbs.

“Mr Naylor, bring the water I filtered today to wash the herbs. Everyone, get to work, we need to work fast. As soon as Astrid finished speaking, even Odell immediately got up to help

Somewhere along the line, Astrid had become the big boss of their team.

Whenever she spoke, everyone would listen.

Of course, Joana, who wasn’t exactly gifted in the brains or social skills department, was an exception.

Everyone worked together and quickly finished washing the herbs.

Seeing Parrish about to throw a handful of herbs into the pot, Astrid quickly stopped him, “There’s a method to brewing medicine, you can’t just toss them in. Let me do it

Nobody responded to his comment, and he felt a bit awkward. He added, “It’s just brewing herbs, does it need to be so complicated? Even Dr. Foster doesn’t know what poison Joana was hit with, how do you know? What if you use the wrong medicine and Joana dies, how will you take responsibility?”

“Can’t you guys read the room? Joana’s in danger, and you two are here putting on this sickening show of affection. Shameless!”

“Shut up, all of you! Mr. Lampard is just caring for his wife, what’s wrong with that? If your own love lives are a mess, go cry somewhere else! Don’t take it out on Astrid for no reason! She has every right to enjoy a happy love life!”
