I’m Someone Else

Chapter 193

It was evident that this was somehow related to the rebound of toxins within Olivia’s body.

Judging by the appearance, it seemed that the cracks had started forming long before she was takenaway; it was only today that they began to bleed.

One could only imagine the kind of pain Olivia had endured during those two days.

Plop!

A teardrop fell to the ground as Thomas whispered, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I failed to protect you.”

He fetched a basin of warm water and brought a clean towel, gently wiping Olivia’s body in an attemptto alleviate her pain. Deep down, he knew it wouldn’t make much of a difference.

“Thomas, my birthday was ruined because you stood me up. You owe me a birthday celebration!”

“Orange cake, of all things. How did you know I love oranges?”

“Thank you, Thomas. This has been the happiest day in the past ten years for me because you are bymy side.”

“Thomas, will you keep on protecting me?”

Images of the moments shared with Olivia replayed in Thomas’ mind like scenes from a movie.

Pure and untainted, Olivia was like a clear spring that had gradually seeped into his heart without himnoticing.

Though she appeared cold and proud on the surface, she was incredibly innocent. She seemed fragile,yet there was an inner resilience within her.

That was the kind of woman she was.

If, at the very moment he first saw her, he had thought of giving her medicine, perhaps there wouldhave been a chance to turn things around. But his mind was clouded by anger and revenge, and heonly focused on seeking justice for Olivia. It was now too late for regrets…

Hmm? As he continued to wipe, Thomas suddenly realized that Olivia was different now compared tobefore! Her body was no longer as cold as ice; she had some warmth to her skin!

“Is…”

It is probably my Blood of the Blazing Sun that has finally taken effect over time. It seems I didn’t wasteall that blood for nothing. That also means that Olivia hasn’t recovered because she hasn’t consumedenough Blood of the Blazing Sun! Olivia won’t have to die if he could just feed her more of my blood!

But he didn’t have more blood he could spare. Even with his healthy hematopoiesis, he couldn’tpossibly fully recover in such a short time.

Thomas stood up, furrowing his brow as he tried to come up with a solution. As long as he could saveOlivia, he was willing to take any risk, even if it meant draining the last drop of blood from his body.

He hurried back to his bedroom and soon returned with a set of silver needles used for acupuncture.Without any hesitation, he directly pierced the acupoints on his body.

Prick! Prick!

When the final needle pierced his skin, Thomas’ forehead veins bulged, and his teeth were grindingnoisily.

It was excruciatingly and unbearably painful!

Those acupoints stimulated the bone marrow within his body. He wanted to ensure that the bonemarrow produced enough blood in an extremely short time to guarantee Olivia’s safety!

This kind of pain that came from the bone marrow was reminiscent of a certain legendary general’sbone-scraping treatment that had been praised for generations since ancient times. However, thesuffering Thomas endured at this moment far exceeded the pain the general had experienced backthen. In fact, it was a hundredfold worse.

The mere thought of scraping the bone’s surface with a knife was already unimaginable. One couldonly imagine how much worse it was to forcefully stimulate the bone marrow. After all, the bone marrowwas inside the bones!

It didn’t take much to know the excruciating pain Thomas was putting up with.

Any ordinary person would have long been rendered unconscious by such agony. However, Thomas,with his extraordinary resilience, gritted his teeth and persevered through.

Being well-versed in medicine, Thomas was well aware of the risks of forcibly stimulating bloodproduction. A slight misstep could lead him straight to the underworld, and even if he managed tosurvive the ordeal with the utmost caution, there was a great chance he would be paralyzed for life.

If Quincy knew what Thomas was doing at this moment, he would undoubtedly stop Thomas withouthesitation. Thomas wasn’t saving Olivia; he was toying with his own life!

The moment he fainted from the pain, there would be no hope of waking up! Not in this lifetime!

“Gah!”

After more than ten minutes, Thomas’ complexion gradually regained a healthy flush. It was a sign ofhis blood replenishing itself. When he couldn’t bear this piercing agony any longer, he removed the

silver needles from his body.

Next, he strode toward Olivia, took off his shirt, slice his wrist, and began feeding her the Blood of theBlazing Sun.

Another half an hour passed, and Thomas slumped to the ground. He felt like the whole world hadturned black and white, devoid of any color. Even the objects before his eyes seemed to spinincessantly. This was a symptom of excessive blood loss.

Despite this, Thomas didn’t go and get rest. He remained by Olivia’s side and constantly observed herreactions.

He would check Olivia’s body temperature every ten minutes.

He had done everything in his power. As long as Olivia could safely endure the rebound of the toxinsthis time, he would have a way to completely rid her body of them.

After the Blood of the Blazing Sun entered Olivia’s body, it rapidly merged with her blood andvoraciously devoured the toxins. It was safe to say that Thomas wasn’t just treating Olivia’s illness; hewas giving her an exchange transfusion using his own blood!

Thomas’ blood was different from that of ordinary people. The Blood of the Blazing Sun was thenemesis of all toxins. Otherwise, Olivia would undoubtedly meet her doom.

Finally, on his sixth check on Olivia, he could clearly feel that her body temperature had improvedsignificantly. Thomas checked her pulse again. Fortunately, it had stabilized this time. Olivia should beable to wake up with a little more rest.

As Thomas stood by the window, a satisfied smile tugged on the corners of his mouth. Thankgoodness, Olivia is fine. I’m glad I can still see her without harm.

If there had been any mishap just now, Thomas could have waited for Olivia in the underworld.

After Thomas covered Olivia with a blanket, he got up and left. The toxins in Olivia’s body were onlysuppressed by his Blood of the Blazing Sun. To remove them completely, she would need to continuetaking medicine. The previous prescription had lost its effectiveness, so he had to prepare a new one.Fortunately, Thomas was skilled in medicine. He formulated another prescription by simply giving it athought.

Additionally, he needed to prepare an ointment for Olivia’s dry and cracked skin. He knew Olivia toowell. If she woke up and found her body in its current state, she would most likely lose her mind. Aftergoing through all the trouble to save her, Thomas would have too much to lose if she were to take herown life.

An hour later, Thomas, dragging his incredibly weary figure, returned to the villa. The first thing he didwas rush into the kitchen and began brewing the medicine. Once it was ready, he personally fed it toOlivia.

Thomas was exceptionally weak at this moment. He felt his eyelids fighting to stay open, but hecouldn’t rest, at least not until Olivia woke up.
