Chapter 377 Treat Her First

Samuel spewed black-colored blood on the ground.

With the black blood staining his lips and his dark eyes exuding tons of chilly aura, his appearance was exceedingly petrifying than Natalie’s.

Only at this point did Jolene finally show up.

She could not help but inhale in a deep breath when she saw the sight that greeted her.

She had witnessed it with her own eyes when Natalie was bitten by the snake. But what she did not expect was how Samuel would swallow his pride to suck out the poisonous blood for a nameless woman.

“I’ll go and get some warm water for you to rinse your mouth,” Jolene anxiously exclaimed.

“There’s no need for that,” Samuel uttered.

“But you—”

“Look for an expert who can remove snake venom immediately,” he grimly commanded. His deadly aura, accompanied by the residual blood left on his lips, made him look just like the god of the underworld.

Jolene nodded and hurriedly walked away to make a call.

In truth, she had immediately contacted a hospital nearby the resort after the accident occurred. The doctor was informed to bring some antivenom over.

Of course, she still went ahead to make a call, but this time, to Yara.

Jolene would act on impulse and agree to do the dirty job because Yara had once done her a favor, and besides, she could put herself in the latter’s shoes since she could relate to her situation very well.

Mr. Bowers helped suck out the venom from that woman’s wound, but he didn’t get to rinse his mouth. What if he gets poisoned or ends up with a hidden illness? And if the Bower family replaces out that it’s my doing, I’ll be totally screwed by then!

As soon as the call went through, Yara’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone. She seemed to be much more flustered than Jolene.

“Ms. Jolene,” Yara muttered. “How is it? Who got bitten? Franklin or Sophia?”

“Ms. Yara, the one who got bitten is the woman who came with Mr. Bowers.”

After a while of silence, Yara asked, “Ms. Jolene, have you called the doctor?”

“Yes, I did. He’s on his way to the resort.” Jolene’s mind was in turmoil and poured all her emotions on Yara since she reckoned they were both on the same boat. “Ms. Yara… w-what should I do?”

“Try all means to stall the doctor…” Yara did not continue with the rest of the sentence. Nonetheless, her meaning was clear; she did not want Natalie to receive any medical care.

“Ms. Yara, that woman is not the only one poisoned. So is Mr. Bowers!”

“What do you mean? How?”

“He sucked out all that poisonous blood, so he’s likely been poisoned too. M-Ms. Yara, you have to help me…”

The news struck Yara like a bolt from the blue.

Someone like Samuel would risk his life for a lowly wretch? How much exactly does he love Natalie that he could make such a decision without thinking about the consequences?

“Ms. Yara… Ms. Yara…”

Jolene called her name a few times before Yara regained her senses.

“I’ll head over right now.” Yara pursed her lips tight before adding, “You mustn’t scare yourself now. I’ll help you no matter what happens. But if you backstab me, I’ll make sure you don’t get to see your children anymore!”

At this point, Jolene could somehow sense that Yara was not as innocent and harmless as how she appeared to be.

But since she had chosen to place her trust in the wrong person from the beginning, there was no other way out for her, and all that she could do was continue following Yara’s orders now.

Even after hanging up the call, Jolene did not feel any better.

She was overwhelmed with guilt and terror.

Moments later, a doctor in a white robe arrived at the hot spring resort.

When the middle-aged male doctor saw Natalie and Samuel’s ashen faces, he was slightly startled.

Didn’t the caller report that there’s only one person who’s bitten? Why are there two victims? Who am I supposed to save first?

Samuel averted his gaze to Natalie, who was lying on the bed. Then he said without a second thought, “Treat her first.”
