Chapter 1689 Can't Care About That Anymore
Mary's voice trembled. "The effect of the poison has struck again, and it's more violent than last time."
Byron's hands tightened uncontrollably. "How could this be?!"
He saw it the last time it happened when the poison's side effects kicked in.
Now, Mary said that this attack was worse than last time!
The person in his arms seemed to be in extreme pain. Even though he held her in his embrace, shewas still shivering, and her face lacked color.
"Rosalie..." Byron’s voice tightened, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes.
‘I already brought the antidote, why is it still like this?’
"What should we do now? Is the antidote useless?" He looked up at the experts beside the hospitalbed.
The experts looked at each other.
After a while, Mary gritted her teeth. "This is supposed to be the time when the poison takes effect. It'salready the third day."
Twelve o'clock at midnight.
Xander's estimated timeframe was ironclad.
Rosalie might not be able to hold on anymore if Byron had waited until daytime!
This realization sent a chill down Byron’s spine.
Mary gritted her teeth tightly, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes. "Now, Rosie must drinkup the antidote as soon as possible. She must endure it even if it hurts!"
She knew exactly what kind of pain Rosalie was enduring at the moment, but there was no other way!novelbin
"What should I do?" Apart from cooperating, Byron did not know what else he could do. He hatedhimself for being incompetent!
Mary leaned over again and pointed the mouth of the bottle at Rosalie's mouth. "Hold her still. Don't lether struggle!"
Byron nodded, looked at the little woman in pain in his arms, and forcefully held her hands and feetdown.
Mary tried to get her to swallow the medicine.
After a while, they all struggled to no avail.
Under the severe pain, Rosalie clenched her teeth tightly, and her tongue unconsciously rejectedeverything that entered her mouth.
The amount of antidote was pitifully little. Mary attempted twice but stopped immediately when she sawthat Rosalie would not cooperate.
"What's the problem?" Byron was very anxious to see that she had stopped, but the medicine in herhand had not been finished.
Mary's face was ugly. "Rosie is resisting swallowing. I can't feed her."
Byron's eyes suddenly darkened, "Is there no other way to achieve detoxification?"
Mary shook her head. "The concentration of this drug is too high to be injected, it can only be takenorally..."
She anxiously glanced at her best friend.
Right now, she had no way to make Rosalie take the antidote.
Byron held out his hand to her. "Give it to me!"
Mary understood what he meant almost immediately. She frowned and retracted her hand, not lettinghim take the medicine.
"We still don't know the formula of Xander's antidote. If you drink it rashly, it might cause damage to thebody..."
In particular, Xander used ancient medicine with unknown ingredients. No one could guaranteewhether the antidote was just poison fighting against poison.
However, Byron had already put Rosalie on the bed and walked in front of Mary without hesitation. "Ican't care about that anymore! Give it to me!"
Mary's eyes trembled. Finally, she gave the antidote to Byron after watching Rosalie in pain.
In front of everyone, Byron poured the remaining antidote into his mouth without hesitation. He thenleaned over and held Rosalie in his arms. Using the other hand, he gripped her cheeks to forcefullyopen her mouth as he slowly pressed his lips onto hers.
