Chapter 1002

Suella crashed herself against the car, trying to ease the pain.

Looking at her reaction, Zephyr smiled wickedly.

He merely put a drop of hard water he had taken from Irvin's laboratory on Suella when he jumpeddown the tree. In truth, he was rather surprised to see her react so fiercely since he didn't use muchon her. This must be karma, he thought. He wondered if God couldn't withstand Suella's cruelty andmade her more sensitive than most people.

Immediately, Alicia knew that Zephyr was not someone to be easily messed with. She had acomplicated expression as she stared at him.

With his ability, he would have harmed us instead of wasting his time if he genuinely had badintentions. It seems like he wants to help out.

While Alicia was in thought, Suella screamed in agony, "Help me, Alicia! I'm dying!"

Although Alicia knew she couldn't decide for Narissa, she still wanted a promise from Zephyr. "If youpromise not to hurt Narissa, you can take her."

When Zephyr heard her words, he smiled and crossed his fingers. “I promise I won't hurt her.” Then,he reached out again. "Can I have her now?" His tone was intimidating.

Hearing his words, Alicia looked at Narissa before glancing at Zephyr once more. In the end, shegave Narissa to him.

As soon as Zephyr took Narissa in his arms, he turned around and left.

"Wait." Alicia chased after him. "You still haven't told me how to solve my friend's problem.”Zephyr stopped in his tracks. However, he didn't look back as he said casually, "The symptoms willbe gone after six hours. If she can't withstand it, you can take her to the hospital. It will take up tothree hours for it to wear off."

When Suella heard his words, she was on an emotional roller coaster. "Three hours? I'll be dead bythen!"

Hearing her words, Zephyr tilted his head and looked at her coldly. "Well, you have to pay the pricefor trying to kill someone!" Then, he left without looking back.

As Alicia watched him leave, she averted her gaze unnervingly. I hope I did the right thing. Please bealright, Narissa.

"What are you thinking about, Alicia? Hurry up and get in the car. I need to go to the hospital!"Suella wanted to be treated as soon as possible, for she felt her whole body itching uncontrollably.When Alicia heard her words, she returned to her senses and went to help her. “I'm coming.”However, just as they walked toward the car, the same thing happened again. Jamie fell from thesky, creating a massive dent in the car as he slammed against it. Then, he rolled off and fell to theroad, stopping by Alicia's feet. Since he had been hanging from a tree for quite some time, it tookhim a while before landing.

"Jamie? What happened to you?" Alicia crouched down and checked on him. When she realized hewas also severely injured, she mustered the strength and carried him over her shoulder. Then, sheput him in the car.

"Another one?" Suella asked in contempt while she scratched her neck. "Wait a minute, where am Isupposed to sit if he rides with us? He's huge, you know.” The Heidelberg Family's car could onlyaccommodate two people sitting in the back. Since Suella had been sitting in the Heidelbergs' carever since she returned from abroad, she was used to it. Now that another person was here to sharethe seat, she was reluctant to do so.

"This is an emergency, Suella. Please understand this. Why don't you sit in the passenger seat? Ineed to send Jamie to the hospital since he is severely injured. If you are unwilling to oblige, youcan wait here while I call a cab to pick you up.” Alicia didn't have time to comfort Suella when shewas worried about Jamie.

"Fine. I guess today is my unlucky day! When he wakes up, remind him that I am the reason he isstill alive. I'm giving him my seat, after alll” Suella cursed as she sat in the passenger seat. Then, shesnapped at the driver, saying, "Hurry up and drive. Can't you see that I'm having a hard time? Youuseless thing..."

Two hours later, Narissa regained consciousness. When she opened her eyes, she saw Zephyrunbuttoning her jacket.

She became wide awake and punched him, causing him to see stars.

"Ouch!" Zephyr yelped in pain as he covered his bruised eye. "What are you doing?!"

"Serves you right," replied Narissa as she tried to sit up. "You need to step over my dead body toharass me!"

"Ah, I guess it's all my fault. I should have left you by the road. What an ungrateful woman you are,”Zephyr grumbled.

Slowly, Narissa could feel the pain in her chest. Then, she pressed her wound and looked around,realizing she was in an operating room. Although she knew she had misinterpreted Zephyr's actions,she was stubborn and wouldn't admit her mistake. However, she was worried about Jamie's safety,so she changed the subject and asked, "Where's Jamie?"

"I don't know." Zephyr huffed. "I only saw you."

When Narissa heard his words, she wanted to get out of bed, but Zephyr stopped her. "What areyou doing?"

"We were in the Hellen Family's territory, and we just offended them. If Jamie falls into their hands,they will kill him!" As Narissa spoke, she coughed.

"You'd be digging your grave if you search for him in this state.” Zephyr was angry and helpless."This is just a small scratch.” Narissa insisted on getting out of bed.

"I can't believe you!" Zephyr pinned her against the bed.

Just as Narissa wanted to put up a fight, Zephyr held her shoulders tightly and looked at her sternly."Stop moving and listen up. The world still spins without you. I know that you are worried abouthim, but you don't have to risk your life. I am going to call Alexander and tell him about this. Thepeople at Smith Co. will work more efficiently than a patient like you."

When a person who always goofed around became serious, he could affect others’ emotions.Narissa heard his suggestion and calmed down. After thinking about it, she was persuaded by hiswords.

Then, Zephyr called Alexander on the spot and told him about what had happened. After relayingthe situation, he put down his phone and stood beside the bed. "Can you relax now? I still need tofix you up.”

Since a branch had stabbed her in the chest, she needed to be treated immediately lest the woundbecame infected. If that happened, she would need to amputate her whole arm.

Ever since Narissa had awoken, she didn't wince in pain even the slightest. Zephyr had never seensuch a stubborn woman, and it pained him to see her in such a state.

On the other hand, Narissa closed her eyes and took off her clothes, revealing the wound. At thesame time, she was also exposing her chest.

Honestly, Zephyr would have gotten used to it since he had been a doctor for twenty years. To him,patients were genderless. However, as soon as he looked at her, he suddenly felt nervous.

"Are you done looking?" Narissa glared at him.

Zephyr snapped back to his senses and regained his composure. Then, he looked at her and smiledwickedly. "Don't be shy. It's not like I haven't seen it, have 7"

Hearing his words, Narissa gritted her teeth. "If you dare say another word, I will punch your othereye!"
