You Hit My Heart novel Chapter 2098

Chapter 2098: Never Seeing Each Other Again

If Clint died, she would be the only one in East Palace tonight. She wouldn't be able to escape the accusation of killing the Crown Prince, which would also lead to an international dispute. Moreover, the negotiations had already been settled, and Clint couldn't die.

Fresh blood continuously flowed into the golden cauldron.

Joyce suspected that Clint had cut his artery. She wiped faster and faster, afraid to miss any spot, fearing that the curse couldn't be completely broken.

The more blood flowed, the more Joyce felt her legs weaken. She had never done such a thing before, nor had she witnessed someone cutting their wrist in front of her. The visual conflict made her feel a little dizzy. Even if she wanted to stand up now, she couldn't.

She wiped her whole body, including her face, as quickly as possible. She couldn't imagine how bloody she looked now. She never expected that she would have to use such a bloody and cruel method to break the curse.

Clint seemed to be getting weaker and weaker. His eyes were tightly closed, his handsome face devoid of color, his thin lips turning blue and then purple.

Finally, Joyce finished wiping herself off. She picked up a piece of clothing and covered her chest.

At that moment, Clint couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the side with a loud thud. The golden cauldron fell with him, making a loud rumble. The remaining blood inside flowed out and spread in all directions like terrifying twisted branches.

Joyce hurriedly put on the clothes and rushed to Clint's side. She quickly took out a thin ribbon from his body and tightly wrapped it around his wrist, compressing it to stop the bleeding. At the same time, she shouted loudly, "Someone help! Quick!"

Tadasuke heard the sound and came in.

He saw Joyce covered in blood, the Crown Prince lying on the ground, and traces of wiped blood all over the floor. Tadasuke almost fainted on the spot.

Incoherently, he asked, "Wha-what happened?"

"Call a doctor! Is there a doctor? Can't you see that the Crown Prince's wrist is bleeding? Hurry!" Joyce almost yelled.

"Yes." Tadasuke stumbled out, tripping and falling twice, even scattering his hair. He was terrified.

Fortunately, the doctor arrived within two minutes.

Clint had made arrangements in advance.

One of the doctors skillfully administered anesthesia to Clint and sutured his wound. The bleeding stopped quickly.

However, Clint was already weak, completely unconscious.

Joyce stood aside, unable to hide her anxiety. She had tried to speed up earlier because she heard that when blood loss occurred and the brain lacked sufficient nutrition, it couldn't maintain its function for long. When unconsciousness occurred, vital organs would also shut down.

Clint was already physically weak, plus he had lost blood from being shot last night and now cut his wrist to bleed even more.

If he died, how could she escape? Her whole body was stained with his fresh blood; she couldn't explain herself.

Joyce didn't dare to think further.

She didn't know that breaking the curse would cost him so much of his life.

Anxiously standing there, she watched the doctors busy themselves.

Another doctor started giving Clint a blood transfusion while administering albumin and oxygen. They did everything they could to save him.

As time passed by second by second, everyone present felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.

If something happened to the Crown Prince, everyone would be implicated.

Joyce's body was covered in the smell of blood; it dried up and tightened her skin until she couldn't feel it anymore.

After a long time-so long that it felt like time had frozen-the doctors' foreheads were covered in sweat from fear of making mistakes.

After what seemed like an eternity for Joyce, who felt her legs had gone numb and her consciousness had been detached from her body, Clint finally took a breath. He lay on the ground with his eyes slowly opening.

Seeing Clint regain consciousness, Joyce let out a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness he didn't die.

She immediately approached him and asked, "How are you?"

She wanted to ask if the curse had been broken but felt it wasn't appropriate at this moment since he had just returned from facing death itself.

Clint weakly shook his head.

He looked at Tadasuke with a faint voice as light as a thread. "Take her to change into a yukata."

Tadasuke immediately complied. "Yes, Your Highness. Miss Knowles, please follow me."

Joyce followed Tadasuke out; she glanced back at Clint once. She saw a doctor feeding him water and seemingly giving him an injection. She didn't look again because at this moment she really needed to bathe and change clothes; otherwise, appearing in front of Luther covered in blood would frighten everyone.
