Bonnie had her heart in her mouth when hearing these words and asked, "Why did you say it was complicated? You
mean Erika..."
She failed to continue her speech as tears streamed down her face. Overwhelmed by the sorrow, she dissolved into
clenching her hands and pinching the corners of her clothes.
Sullen, Sebastian was enveloped with mixed feelings and questioned, "Aren't you an expert? Why can't you cure
Erika?"
Speechless, Rupert looked at them and explained, "I refer to not her condition but pathology. She can leave the
hospital when she wakes up."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRendered confused by his explanation, Bonnie stopped crying instantly and looked at Rupert. "She is fine?"
"Yes, after the thorough physical examination just now, I didn't find anything about her." In fact, Rupert even didn't
find a common typhoid virus.
"No way." Joanna standing aside kept jumping high to attract Rupert's attention. "Erika suffered sharp pain just now
and even cried."
Then Joanna paused and looked at Lukas and Andrew. "My two brothers also noticed."
They nodded and answered in a union, "Yes. Normally, Erika's not afraid of pain. She didn't cry when her finger was
hurt with a knife last time."
They thought Erika's cry of pain was demonstrative of her suffering.
Rupert spread out his hands speechlessly and said, "I mean her symptoms are weird. Confusingly, she is healthy,
but screams with pain."
As a medical expert, he first met such a strange medical case in his career.
Thrilled at the case, Rupert looked at Sebastian expectantly. "Sebastian, how about leaving Erika to me. I can probe
the case thoroughly."
"Impossible." Sebastian refused his offer without hesitation and took over Erika. "My cherished daughter would be
the subject of your medical treatment? Stop dreaming."
At the same time, Bonnie was shocked at his words and wondered if he had said Erika was his cherished daughter.
She was curious if Sebastian regarded Erika as his daughter or namely one of his family members.
For a moment, a rush of warmth surged in her heart. She loosened her grip on the corners of her clothes and
realized no one would hurt Erika when Sebastian was around.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBeing refused, Rupert pouted. "Well. Just a joke. I would not treat Erika, my niece as the subject for medical
experiments."
"Rupert, your expression failed to cover your intention just now," Joanna retorted without hesitation.
Rupert had to admit that he was cornered by Joanna's reply.
Wrath was all written on Sebastian's face.
Rupert hurriedly changed the topic. "Stop discussing the matter. What was she doing before the incident?"
"We just played in the garden and ate some chocolate brought by Uncle Charles. soon, Erika said she had a
stomachache and cried in pain," Joanna recalled the whole thing and answered, with her round face raised up.
"Chocolate? Show me," Rupert asked as some ideas jumped into his mind.
