“Well, the soup may still be a little hot. Let me open the lid for you so that it’ll cool down faster.” Elizabeth proceeded to open the food container. The chicken soup was garnished with a few green onions, appearing very appetizing.

However, Janet wasn’t paying attention to the soup at all.

She lifted a corner of her quilt, got out of bed and put on her shoes.

“Where are you headed? You don’t look very well. Let me help you.” Elizabeth quickly walked over and grabbed hold of Janet’s wrist. Even though her tone was still cold, the look in her eyes happened to be very serious right then.

With a gentle smile on her face, Janet pointed her finger to the bathroom in the ward and said in a very weak voice, “I want to go to the bathroom.”

Elizabeth nodded and didn’t say another word. She carefully helped Janet head over to the bathroom.

Once they reached the door of the bathroom, Janet suddenly fainted with no given warning.

“Janet!” Elizabeth exclaimed as she panicked. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

In fact, Janet only pretended to faint. Now that there were only two people in the ward, if Elizabeth wanted to hurt Janet, she would definitely do nothing to help her out.

In addition, Elizabeth might even do something secretly to Janet while she was unconscious.

It was obvious that Elizabeth was very anxious at this time. She did everything she could to help Janet up. Elizabeth was slender and a little on the thin side. Due to that, it was extremely difficult for her to lift Janet up. “Well, the soup may still be a little hot. Let me open the lid for you so that it’ll cool down faster.”

Elizabeth proceeded to open the food container. The chicken soup was garnished with a few green onions, appearing very appetizing.

After o few minutes of this, Elizobeth finolly helped Jonet over to the bed. She tucked Jonet in ond hurried out to get the ottention of the doctor.

Jonet opened her eyes ond peeked out of the word.

This wos stronge. Elizobeth didn’t oppeor to be octing.

She couldn’t pretend to be unconscious onymore. If the doctor wolked in ond found out thot she hod only pretended to foint, it would be very emborrossing.

With her elbows supporting her body, Jonet leoned ogoinst the pillow on her bed os if she hod just regoined consciousness.

A few minutes loter, Elizobeth hurried into the word with the doctor right behind her.

Seeing thot Jonet wos owoke now, Elizobeth come over to the bed in o rush ond osked, “Didn’t you just foint? When did you woke up? How ore you feeling right now?”

Jonet osked in o dozed, “Did I reolly foint just now? I thought I wos in bed the entire time.”

There wos no other expression on Elizobeth’s foce other thon worry. She turned to look ot the doctor ond soid, “Pleose check if she’s oll right.”

The doctor gove Jonet o simple exominotion ond discovered thot she wos perfectly fine. He concluded thot the reoson why she fointed hod to do with hypoglycemio.

After a few minutes of this, Elizabeth finally helped Janet over to the bed. She tucked Janet in and hurried out to get the attention of the doctor.

Janet opened her eyes and peeked out of the ward.

This was strange. Elizabeth didn’t appear to be acting.

She couldn’t pretend to be unconscious anymore. If the doctor walked in and found out that she had only pretended to faint, it would be very embarrassing.

With her elbows supporting her body, Janet leaned against the pillow on her bed as if she had just regained consciousness.

A few minutes later, Elizabeth hurried into the ward with the doctor right behind her.

Seeing that Janet was awake now, Elizabeth came over to the bed in a rush and asked, “Didn’t you just faint? When did you wake up? How are you feeling right now?”

Janet asked in a dazed, “Did I really faint just now? I thought I was in bed the entire time.”

There was no other expression on Elizabeth’s face other than worry. She turned to look at the doctor and said, “Please check if she’s all right.”

The doctor gave Janet a simple examination and discovered that she was perfectly fine. He concluded that the reason why she fainted had to do with hypoglycemia.

After the doctor was gone, Elizabeth asked in a sincere voice, “Was it because you haven’t had any breakfast yet? Try the soup. Or I can go and buy you something else if you don’t like the soup.”

Elizabeth ladled some soup from the container and handed it over to Janet. Her face was still expressionless, but she looked very sincere at this time.

After having said that, she grabbed her purse and was about to head out.

Janet tugged on Elizabeth’s hand to stop her. “Don’t bother with it. I’ll be fine after having some soup.”

After she said that, her gaze was still fixed on Elizabeth’s face.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?” Elizabeth wiped her face, feeling confused.

“It’s nothing.” Janet thought that she had suspected Elizabeth wrongly. Feeling guilty, she said sorry to her.

“Sorry, I shouldn’t have done such a thing.”

“Why are you suddenly apologizing to me?” Elizabeth seemed to be even more confused right then.

Janet said candidly, “I don’t actually have hypoglycemia, I pretended to faint just now. I suspected that you replaced my pills with cathartics yesterday, so I pretended to faint in order to test you.”

With her eyes opened wide, Elizabeth turned to look at Janet in astonishment. “But those pills were given to me by Rosa.”
