Chapter 1033

“Stef, what’s happening?! Don’t scare me! Say something!” Seraphina just realized Stefan’s conditionhad worsened, with all color draining from his face. It seemed he had fallen unconscious as well.

“His heart rate is going up! Call the doctor! Now!” Renee looked towards the heart monitor, whose lineswere dancing, as if indicating that the man was in a very unstable condition.

The chief doctor quickly rushed over and started providing emergency care. “Please wait outside,ladies. The patient’s blood pressure is unstable, and he needs urgent treatment!”

Renee and Seraphina didn’t dare to stay any longer, immediately cooperating with the medics andleaving the ward.

“You unlucky b*tch! Look what you’ve done to Stef?! Haven’t you caused enough harm?!” Seraphinawailed as she hit Renee harshly. “Nothing happened when you were gone! The doctors even said hiscondition had stabilized! He only needs a few more days of rest before he can get discharged!

“But as soon as you showed up, his heart started palpitating, and his life is now in danger again! You’rethe bane of his existence! So please just leave him alone, I beg of you!”

“I… I didn’t expect this either.” Renee worriedly stared at Stefan’s ward, her eyes filled with deepmelancholy and regret. She started feeling as if the deal she made with the gods was slowly comingtrue.novelbin

The first time might have been a coincidence, but with it happening a second and third time, calling it amere coincidence wasn’t going to cut it.

‘Murphy is right, I’m really the bane of Stefan’s existence. He’ll be in danger as long as I’m near him…’

“I told you that you had to use a cotton swab to apply the cream, but you insisted on using your fingers!He’s still in a weak state. Even a slight breeze could endanger his life!”

“There must be bacteria on your fingers, and his wounds are now infected! You witch, why didn’t youdrown back then?! Why did you have to come back and hurt Stef all over again?!” Seraphina lunged atthe woman once more, releasing all her pent-up rage from the past few days.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”

Renee could feel a lump in her throat, with tears trickling down her cheeks. She allowed Seraphina totake out whatever anger she had on her without the slightest resistance.

“Stop it!” Jovan was met with this messy scene when he exited the elevator. He dashed over to the twowomen.

He then grabbed Seraphina’s wrist and questioned, “Didn’t I warn you not to hurt her?!”

Seraphina shrunk as soon as she saw Jovan, like a rat encountering a cat. She suddenly becamesubservient, gulping nervously. “I didn’t mean to, but she deserved it! She used her dirty hands to applymedicine to Stef’s wounds!”

“You know how many difficulties he had gone through just for his condition to stabilize! But now… hislife is at risk again!”

“How can you blame her?” Jovan shot her a cold glare. “The doctors have already told you aboutStefan’s condition. They said he was still in a crisis and he could become unstable at any time! Heinjured his head badly and even underwent major surgery! Even if no one touched him, he might haveended up in this situation.”

“Surgery?” Drowned in tears, Renee’s eyes were cold and sharp. “Weren’t his wounds external!? Whywould he need any major surgery?”

Seraphina’s expression visibly shifted as she glanced at Jovan carefully. She kept her mouth shut, notdaring to utter a single word.

Jovan, however, seemed quite relaxed. He smiled at the woman and responded. “Stefan had aconcussion. He hit his head on a rock which caused internal bleeding in his skull. That’s why they hadto give him brain surgery. Isn’t that considered major surgery?”

“Brain surgery!!!” Renee balled up her fists, her palms clammy with sweat. The man’s words made herheart sink to her stomach.
