Chapter 1254 One Month Left
Meanwhile, Roxanna hid behind a pillar as Nicole returned to the medical base. She noticed a troubling expression
on Nicole's face but chose not to disturb her, though a growing sense of unease gnawed at her. Her concern for
Nicole deepened with every passing moment while she sensed something was amiss.
At this moment, Nicole lay on her bed and she was overwhelmed by a disconcerting sensation as if a thousand bugs
were nibbling at her skin.
Knock! Knock!
"Nicole, you didn't look well earlier. Would you like to go for a check-up?" Roxanna's voice held genuine worry as
she stood outside Nicole's room. Upon seeing Nicole's return, her intuition urged her to check on Nicole, ensuring
she received timely medical attention if necessary.
After hearing this, Nicole cracked her eyes open while battling the dizziness. Then, she struggled to stand and

In the meantime, Roxanna paced restlessly outside the corridor. Soon, the sound of activity within prompted her to
stand beside the door as she waited for Nicole to open it. "Nicole! What happened?" Her gaze locked onto Nicole's
pallid face. Suddenly, her concern deepened as she witnessed Nicole's feeble state as if she could collapse any
moment.
Summoning her strength, Nicole shook her head weakly and leaned against the doorframe for support. "Don't
worry about me. Please get Chloe."
"Okay. I'll call Chloe right after I help you out." Roxanna's brows furrowed with worry as she helped Nicole to sit on
the bed before hurrying off. She knew Nicole's condition could not be delayed anymore, judging from her
appearance. Her concern deepened as she felt Nicole's feeble pulse while helping her earlier, an unsettling
indication that her organs had aged well beyond their years. The stark contrast within just half a day left Roxanna
astonished. Ultimately, all she could do was release a heavy sigh, overwhelmed by the severity of the situation.
Meanwhile, Nicole slowly lay on her bed as her strength waned. Though she had intended to await Chloe sitting up,
her body betrayed her intentions.
"Chloe, come take a look quickly. Nicole left for half a day and returned like this," Roxanna implored as she led
Chloe to the room.
Chloe furrowed her brow upon seeing Nicole's appearance. She had been researching the new medicine in isolation
for the past two days but did not expect Nicole's body to suffer so much in just a few days. "Let me take a look."
She immediately checked Nicole's pulse and felt something was off.
Suddenly, a thick, darkened vein on Nicole's neck caught her attention, resembling a crawling millipede. "Supreme
voodoo bug," she murmured, the words escaping involuntarily.
Roxanna's eyes widened at the revelation. The worry she felt earlier couldn't compare to the shock of hearing
about the supreme voodoo bug in Nicole's body. "Is there any treatment for this? Is this a serious illness?" she asked
worriedly as her mind raced to recall information she had read.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter hearing this, Chloe nodded gravely, her voice laden with worry, saying, "Not only that, but Nicole may only
have a month left."
"Cough… Cough…" A sudden cough erupted from Nicole, interrupting the conversation. The revelation of her
limited time left took her breath away.
"Nicole!" Roxanna and Chloe exclaimed simultaneously.
"Don't worry, just stay calm." Suppressing their alarm, Nicole motioned for them not to assist her. She cleared her
throat, her voice ragged yet resolute.
Then, Roxanna slumped into a chair, her countenance bleak, muttering, "How is this possible?"
On the other hand, Chloe's composure faltered as she struggled to mask her anxiety.
"Both of you, please leave. We'll figure this out." Nicole's raspy voice shattered the silence, contrasting its once
ethereal timbre.
After a moment's shared glance between Roxanna and Chloe, they reluctantly exited Nicole's room, resigned to
doing their utmost to find a remedy and provide comfort in the time they had left.
