In a daze, Selina followed Lothar into the ward.
Yesseca was lying on the bed with her body curled up into a ball.
A heart-wrenching pain pierced through Selina's heart.
From the very moment she first laid eyes on Yesseca, she had already felt it.
She thought that Yesseca would naturally make others feel like protecting her, regardless by men or women.
Lothar then took Yesseca's temperature again.
It was 38 degrees.
He gestured for Selina to leave the ward with him.
"It's still okay. It's fine if it hasn't reached 39 degrees," Lothar heaved a sigh of relief.
Selina thought of Yesseca's abnormal facial complexion and asked subconsciously, "Lothar, what's wrong with Yesseca? When will she recover?"
Lothar's face darkened. "There's a problem with her kidneys. It's very serious. She needs to get a kidney transplant."
Selina was shocked.
If a kidney transplant was required, it was indeed a very serious disease.
"She has been lying on the bed for so many years because of her kidney problem. Other girls of the same age are either studying or in love. Only she is lying on the bed. Fortunately, she has a good character and hasn't given up," Lothar said.
Selina patted Lothar's shoulder. "Don't think too much. You're a good brother. Yesseca can only hold on with you around."
Lothar laughed at himself.
"By the way, what's wrong?" Lothar asked again.
After a moment of silence, Selina said, "I just saw my ex-husband hugging another woman."
Lothar was startled.
Selina refused to say any more.
It was too agonizing for her to tell others about it.
Every time she brought it up, it was as if someone pierced her heart open with a dagger.
"Is it some misunderstanding?" Lothar asked subconsciously.
The corners of her lips curled up coldly.
At first, she also felt that it might be a misunderstanding. She felt that it might Caroline's
plan.
But Matthew didn't explain anything to her. Instead, he kissed and touched her. How could she trust Matthew!
Selina stopped speaking. Lothar didn't know what to say either.
After thinking about it, he scratched his head and said, "Selina, in my honest opinion, I don't think your ex-husband is the kind of man who would have an affair behind your back."
"I don't think so either, but the truth shows that he is."
"You'd better listen to his explanation."
Selina stayed silent.
Moments later, Lothar realized that she was not willing to speak any more about it, so he changed the topic and said, "Why not I help you find a ward so you can spend the night?"
It was not long before daybreak.
"It's fine, you can go to sleep. I'll just sit here." How could she still be in the mood to sleep now?
"Then, I'll accompany you," Lothar said.
"There's no need."
"I have to stay up to take my sister's temperature anyway."
"Alright then, it's up to you."
Then, the two of them remained speechless, sitting there silently just like that.
Selina's heart was getting more and more painful as time passed by.
Her heart was as if being caught by a pair of hands, and the hands were squeezing it as time passed, which made her heart more and more painful.
It was such agonizing pain.
When it was almost dawn, Yesseca's body temperature had risen to 39 degrees. Lothar quickly went to find a doctor.
The doctor said he would give Yesseca an injection.
Selina tagged along.
It was agonizing for her just sitting there, so she thought it was better to walk around.
