Chapter 418 I Trust Him
"Serenity, I’m going back," Susan said with determination.
It felt like she wanted to catch Julian cheating by waiting in the hotel. Julian was not that kind of person. If she did so, she would be tainting their relationship.
"You're going back? But..." Serenity was anxious.
"I trust Julian." Susan flashed a bright grin at Serenity.
Serenity was at a loss for words. Truthfully, Julian's love for Susan was trustworthy, but this matter...
"Okay, come on." Pulling Serenity, Susan left the carpark directly.
She went home straight away and deleted the photo, pretending that it had never existed.
As Serenity thought about it more, however, she remained skeptical. She drove back to the hotel and waited in the car. She was going to find out if Julian was in the hotel and who he was with if that was the case.
In the hotel room, Julian looked at Willa seriously." Miss Doyle, you mean it's best if you can check on Susie to aid the treatment?"
Willa nodded. "One-to-one treatment will definitely be more comprehensive, and the effect will be better too.
I have a device that checks the concentration of the Errol Virus with me. I’ll study the virus concentration i n Susan's blood and alter my treatment plan accordingly. If it was possible, I'd treat her by staying b y her side. It would be more convenient. Since that's not feasible, I can stay outside and go in at a certain fixed time. In regards to the efficacy of this treatment, staying by her side 24-7 would naturally be better."
Julian considered it and agreed. "I’ll have to trouble you to treat Susie and stay by her side then, Miss Doyle."
There was an unnerving glint in Willa's gaze before she smiled in agreement. "I’m here to treat Susie. It's n o trouble at all."
"Thank you," said Julian. "But I'm afraid what you bring into the Shaw Mansion will have to be checked. It's not that I don't believe you, Miss Doyle. It's just that there are too many people with their eyes set on the Shaws given my current identity. If something does happen, it’s easier to clear suspicion if you've been checked."
"I'm fine with it." Willa nodded. "For the first phase of treatment, I need to bring about 10 vials of extrastrong medicine, some herbs, and a mini detecting device. Anything else is just optional."
"I can prepare the daily necessities for you, Miss Doyle,” Julian said.
"I’ll trouble you then," Willa said directly. "I've also devised a general treatment plan based on Susan's state. Would you like to have a look, Mr. Shaw?" "Of course." Julian agreed.
"Firstly, the medication is the most important and crucial part of the treatment. This virus carries a coldness to it that harms the body greatly, so while medication is injected, I'll massage Susan with herbs t o repel the chill in her body. Then..." Willa elaborated meticulously, going through the theory and detailed process of the massage.
The explanation was boring, but Julian listened to it attentively because it had to do with Susie.
After some time, Willa licked her parched lips and smiled apologetically. "Sorry, I can’t stop when I talk about my expertise. You must be bored."
Julian shook his head. "What you said is related to Susie's condition. I'm more than grateful for it."
Willa smiled. "That's about the gist of the treatment plan. I've already prepared the necessary items. As for the herbs, I'll write you a prescription and you can buy them directly. You can take the medicine and the device for a check. If there's no issue, send them straight to your house. I can start Susan's treatment at any time."
"Alright." Julian nodded.
Willa wrote the prescription. Julian was about to leave with it and the box that contained the medicine and the device when he was hit by vertigo right as he stood up. It caused him to rub his temples.
"What's the matter?" Willa looked at him in concern." Mr. Shaw, have you not rested well recently? Judging b y the way you look, you seem to be fatigued."
"It’s fine,” Julian said while pushing himself.
He had barely caught any sleep in three days. Now that the treatment had been decided, his eyelids seemed laden with lead once he relaxed.
"This won't do," Willa said sternly. "Leave these things for tomorrow. It's too risky for you to drive in this state. You are prone to have an accident."
She thought about it and said, "This is a presidential suite with a few bedrooms. Pick one and rest for the night."
"No need. I can call my chauffeur to pick me up," said Julian. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Willa’s expression was something between a smile and a smirk. "You've been doing everything on your own to take care of Susan and the virus. This must mean that you don't want anyone else or Susan herself finding out, yes? I heard you say on the phone that you're supposedly abroad. If you
called your chauffeur to pick you up from a hotel suddenly... wouldn’t Susan be suspicious if she found out?"
A frown adorned Julian's face.
"It's okay. Just rest here. Or are you afraid that a weak lady like me will harbor ulterior motives?" Willa said with a smile.
Upon contemplating his options, Julian agreed." Alright then, excuse me for causing you trouble."
He would very likely get into an accident if he were to drive in this state. He could only stay the night there.
After picking a bedroom without much thought, Julian entered a slumber right away.
As her eyes stayed on the locked bedroom door, an eerie smirk pulled at Willa’s lips.
Julian and Susan trusted and loved each other deeply, right? She would love to see how deep their trust for each other was.
At the hotel entrance, Serenity kept her eyes open and glued on the door.
"I can't sleep. I mustn't sleep,” she muttered to herself repeatedly.
She was afraid that she would miss anyone who stepped out of the doors once she fell asleep. Sipping o n her coffee, she pinched her thigh to keep herself awake and waited resolutely.
She stayed there until the next morning. Just as she yawned for the umpteenth time, she caught sight of two people walking out and could not help perking up.
One of them was Julian, and beside him stood a sensual woman.
"Oh my... For f*ck’s sake!" Anger crossed Serenity's brilliant features.
What was going on? Was Julian really sleeping with some random woman?
