Georgia couldn't believe her ears and stared at Angelina in disbelief, thinking she must have heard wrong. Angelina, though she had her moments of anger, had never spoken to Georgia with such a firm tone before.
Georgia's face was a mix of disbelief and annoyance, "Angelina, do you even realize what you just said?"
Angelina retorted, "Of course, I do. I told you to leave; don’t delay Alaric’s treatment!"
"You..." Georgia was about to lose her temper.
But Angelina turned back, one hand cradling a child, the other pulling Georgia, "Move it, don’t loiter around here!"
Georgia was reluctant and didn’t really want to leave; she was practically dragged away by Angelina.
After Angelina and Georgia left, the place quieted down considerably. Alaric collapsed onto the bed, feeling utterly drained.
Ethan placed a glass of water on the bedside table and hurried to check on Alaric. "Alaric, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me, man!"
Hearing this from outside the room, Lydia rushed in to check on Alaric.
After checking his pulse, Lydia said, "He’s fine. The acupuncture needles were placed correctly; his condition won’t worsen."
"But he looks so..." Ethan, still worried, glanced at Alaric lying on the bed.
"It's his mood," Lydia explained.
Understanding the situation, Ethan told Alaric, "You wanted water, right? Here it is, come on, get up and drink."
Alaric lay there, staring at the ceiling without moving, a sight that was chilling to the bone.
Alaric, a tall and usually upbeat guy, was now a shadow of his former self, which made Ethan feel incredibly sorry for him.
Lydia instructed, "The medicine I told you to prepare, go and get it now."
