Chapter 945 Temporary Improvement Before Her Life Ended

Zoelle sighed. "I'll do my best, but I can’t promise anything. The poison she ingested has spread to her organs. Even the best physician can’t save her. On top of that, her will to survive is extremely low..." Frieda was determined to die, and there was no medical solution for a patient with such intentions. Joseph stood at the doorway, gazing at Frieda who was breathing weakly on the bed. His heart tightened. Even though it had only been one day since she was brought back to Duskfall, she had already resolved to take her own life. She had already decided what to do if she was captured again. Death would be her release. Joseph closed his eyes, trying to regain his composure. "Please do your best to make her wake up. I'm begging you." Zoelle nodded solemnly. "I’ll do everything I can." Tears welled up in Vince's eyes. He wiped them away with his sleeve and pleaded, "I know you're the best doctor, Zoelle. I apologize for what happened before. Please, you have to save Frieda. Don't let personal grudges affect your professional judgment." Zoelle rolled her eyes at him. This guy was as ineloquent as ever. People who did not know the whole story might think that he was being sarcastic. However, she knew that he simply did not know how to express himself verbally. He would do whatever she asked him to do. When Chloe woke up, two adorable border collies surrounded her. They stuck out their tongues at her with their heads tilted, looking at her in excitement. It was as if they were saying they had not seen her in a long time and had missed her. Chloe was momentarily stunned. She reached out to pet their fluffy heads. "Toto, Oreo..." "Woof!" Toto responded happily. Although the dog was visibly older, it was still excited when it saw Chloe. Seeing how enthusiastic they were, Chloe felt as if she had gone back five years to the time when she lived with them. Suddenly, she remembered that she had passed out due to the aphrodisiac when she was in the stone chamber. "Mom! Mom!" Jasper rushed over, his heavy steps echoing through the corridor. He held Chloe's hand and urged, "Come with me. Grandma woke up and wants to see you." Chloe was taken aback. As she put on her shoes, she asked, "Joseph managed to rescue Frieda?" "Yes, but Grandma took some drugs and is dying..." Jasper cried. The little boy was scared as he did not fully understand what death meant. He knew that once a person died, they could not be seen again. He did not want to be separated from his grandmother. He wanted to be with her always. Chloe took a deep breath, her legs trembling as she gripped the edge of the bed to maintain her composure. She said, "It's going to be okay. Grandma will be fine. Let's go see her right now." There were many people gathered around the bed. Harold, Joseph, Zoelle, Vince, and Patrick were all there. This scene made Chloe anxious. Cold sweat beaded in her palms as she quickened her pace. "Ms. Frieda…" "You're here," Fried said. Her lips were purple and there were many tubes on her body. She struggled to open her eyes and smiled at Chloe. "The rest of you, please leave. I have something to say to Chloe." With bloodshot eyes, Joseph gazed at Frieda, then wheeled Harold out of the room. Although Zoelle had a lot of confidence in her medical skills, she understood that Frieda waking up so quickly was not necessarily a good sign. Frieda had ingested a significant amount of harmful substances in a short period, and a rapid recovery was highly unlikely. It could be just a temporary improvement before her life ended.
