Lilia’s condition was also severe. She was infected with pneumonia and kept coughing. 

On the sixth day. 

Joanna’s high fever would not subside. It has even become more severe than before. 

The family doctor was also very puzzled. Judging from Joanna’s symptoms, it was an ordinary cold. However, the medicine. she took did not work at all. 

Bruce finally lost his temper. “What’s going on? Why can’t you treat an ordinary cold!” 

The family doctor explained, but Bruce did not listen at all. “If it doesn’t work, we should go to the hospital” 

Bruce’s face darkens significantly, and seeing Joanna’s condition worsening, he can no longer afford to delay any further. 

Joanna, get up and change. I’ll take you to the hospital.” 

Joanna is also suffering greatly from her illness. 

Every day, the persistent fever leaves her feeling mentally and physically drained, in a state of lethargy and discomfort that has reached its peak. 

Marhall Hospital. 

Bruce sent Joanna to the hospital. 

The results of the doctor’s examination were still that of a common cold. 

Joanna was treated in the hospital for another three days, but the effect was minimal. Her fever was still very high. 

“What are you all doing? You can’t even treat an ordinary cold? How did you get your doctor’s license?” 

The chief physician’s expression becomes solemn as he says, “Mr. Everett, although a common cold is usually a minor issue, there are exceptions. Miss Haynes‘ symptoms are unique…” 

“Don’t waste time explaining all this to me. Can you cure her or not?” Bruce’s face turns dark, showing his frustration. 

The doctors were so scared that they did not even dare to breathe. Mr. Everett had a bad temper. He might fire all of them in the heat of the moment. 

“Mr. Everett, we’ll immediately adjust the new treatment plan! Don’t worry. We’ll treat Miss Haynes as soon as possible.” 

The entire department became nervous. 

Gather together and work on a new treatment plan. 

However, no matter how they treated her, there was no improvement. 

Joanna and Lilia were sick all the time. Bruce’s mood was equally bad! 

After careful consideration, the butler, Gael, said solemnly, “Mr. Everett. Looking at Miss Haynes’s condition, it doesn’t seem like just a cold” 

Bruce frowned. “If it’s not a cold, then what is it?” 

Gael pondered for a moment. “Have you offended anything unclean?” 

“Offended what?” Bruce didn’t understand what he meant.. 

“I meant offending any evil spirits.” 

Bruce was stunned, and his eyes moved slightly. 

He never believed in such things! 

However, Margaret believed in this. 

So, from a young age and under the influence of his grandmother, he has heard and seen many similar things. 

Moreover, the wealthier a person was, the more they believed in superstition. 

These things are all interconnected and not unexplainable using scientific principles. After all, there are many aspects of magnetic fields that even scientists have not fully understood. 

“Say what you want to say!” 

Gael said bluntly. “Why don’t we consult Miss Hayne’s symptoms from Mr. Lewis?” 

Bruce frowned slightly when he heard that.

Chapter 425 

Mr. Lewis was the famous geomancer of Greyport and a distinguished guest of Margaret. Almost all the respected people in Greyport have some connection with him. 

In the past, whenever anything happened to the Everett family, Margaret would look for Mr. Lewis for advice. 

However, since Margaret passed away, the Everett family never invited Mr. Lewis again. After all, Bruce did not believe in these things. 

After thinking for a while, Bruce nodded. “Alright, get him to come and take a look!” 

“Alright, Mr. Everett! I’ll make an appointment now.” 

Many people were seeking Mr. Lewis for advice every day. They had to make appointments many days in advance. 

In the ward. 

Joanna started convulsing again. Her throat made a dreamy sound. 

Seeing this, Bruce quickly walked up to her and shook her awake. “Joanna, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare again?” 

Joanna gasped and struggled to sit up. Her entire body was drenched in cold sweat. 

She did have a nightmare just now! 

Nightmares were like this. Even if they were woken up, if they immediately fell asleep, they would be haunted by nightmares again. 

Therefore, Joanna insisted on sitting up and not letting herself fall asleep. 

“Bruce, how’s Lilia? Is she better?” 

Bruce’s eyes darkened as he replied vaguely, “Yes, she’s much better now!” 

“That’s good!” 

As they were talking, the door was pushed open! 

Davian and Irvin walked in. “Mommy, is your cold better?” 

Seeing this. Joanna immediately stopped her sons. “Yes, just stand there and don’t come closer. Mommy’s cold is contagious. It would be bad if I passed it to you.” 

“We’re not afraid!” the two little boys said together in unison. 

“Be good and listen to me. If you catch a cold, you need to get an injection.” 

When the two little boys heard this, they obediently stood still and dared not approach the bed again. “Daddy, when will Mommy and sister recover?” 

“Very soon. You guys can leave first.” Bruce’s face was fierce. 

“Okay!” 

The two little boys reluctantly left the ward again. 

Joanna struggled to get out of bed. Bruce quickly stopped her. “Hurry up and lie down. Why are you getting up?” 

*I’ve been lying down for more than ten days. I feel uncomfortable all over. I want to walk!” 

“Then I’ll hold you!” 

Bang! Bang! Bang! There was a knock on the door! 

“Come in.” 

A servant pushed open the door and walked in. “Mr. Everett, Miss Roxanne is here.” 

When Bruce heard this, he looked displeased. “What is she doing here?” 

“She said she’s here to see Miss Haynes!” 

“Let her go back.” 

Joanna took a deep breath. “Forget it. Since I’m already here, I should meet her.” 

“Then I’ll excuse myself first!” Bruce did not want to have any more interactions with Roxanne. 

“Okay” 

Bruce then lefi! 

Not long after, a servant came in with Roxanne. 

“Roxy, why are you here?” Joanna forced herself to stay awake! 

Chapter 425 

Roxanne blinked her big innocent eyes and quickly walked to the head of the bed. “Sister, I heard you were sick, so I came to 

see you” 

“Tin fine.” 

Roxanne’s eyes turned red as she said with a pained expression. “You don’t seem fine at all. Look at how thin you’ve become. You have to take good care of yourself!” 

“…Joanna’s eyes darkened. She did not know what to say! 

Faced with Roxanne’s deliberate goodwill, she is still hesitant to accept it. 

“Oh, right. I’ve prayed for an amulet for you. It’ll be better if you keep it by your side.” 

As Roxanne spoke, she opened her bag and took out an amulet. She handed it to Joanna with a harmless expression. 

Joanna took it. “Thank you!” 

“By the way, are you staying at the old residence now?” 

Roxanne lowered her head weakly. “Yes, Dad and Mom are gone. I’m the only one left in the house.” 

“Where are the servants?”
