Chapter 811 Mouth Feeding
“What?” Disbelief was written on Steven’s face.
However, it didn’t seem like Luna was joking.
“Mr. Samuel’s condition is special. Therefore, extreme caution needs to be applied when administering his medicine.” She furrowed her eyebrows. “Unnecessary kindness like that will only cause him to suffer even greater pain.”
He asked, “What now, then?”
“I’m going to re-prescribe his medicine.” Her finger moved away from Samuel’s wrist.
After thinking for a while, she prepared his medicine.
“Mr. Samuel needs to be served his medicine immediately.” She stared at Steven and insisted, “I need to find all the necessary herbs as soon as possible.”
“I have an idea.” He grabbed her hand, but she gently pushed it away. “You…”
Luna lowered her head slightly and said, “You walk in front, Mr. Steven. I’ll follow behind.”
He withdrew his hand and awkwardly rubbed his nose before leading her to Natalie’s special room. It was a room meant only to store herbs.
“There are herbs here. See if the ones you need are in here. If not, I’ll think of something else.”
She could smell a lot of different herbs in the room after she walked in.
Each of the herb’s smells was unique. That guided her to the correct drawers and to find the herbs she needed. In just a short moment, she had gathered all the herbs she needed to prepare medicine for Samuel.
After she left the room, she took a few more glances at it. I heard Samuel used to learn medicine from Malcolm. Is that why he specifically prepared a room filled to the brim with rare herbs?
Luna was particular about the preparation of the medicine. She brewed the herbs inside the kitchen for an hour before pouring the extract into a small bowl.
Just as she picked up a spoon and looked as though she was going to take a sip, Steven stopped her. “What are you doing?”
“Can’t you tell? I’m feeding Mr. Samuel his medicine.” There wasn’t any shyness in her eyes. “He’s in a coma right now, and so he can’t drink the medicine himself. I need to feed it to him by mouth.”
Steven furrowed his eyebrows and exclaimed, “This… You can’t do this. How can you use your mouth to feed my brother his medicine?”
“What exactly are you thinking, Mr. Steven?” She stared at him coldly. “I’m a doctor, and he’s a patient. I’m doing this to save him.”
It wasn’t that he didn’t understand what she was saying. However, he couldn’t watch the woman feed medicine to his brother by mouth.
At that time, he didn’t understand something about himself. He thought he was protecting his brother on behalf of his sister-in-law. However, in reality, he just didn’t want to see her act so intimately with another man.
Steven declared coldly, “I said no.”
“Then what do you plan to do?”
“I’ll feed him.” He grabbed the bowl from Luna’s hand. “I’m his brother, so if anyone’s gonna feed him by mouth, it’s me, not you!”
When she heard that, she stood up and turned around. “I’ll leave it to you then, Mr. Steven.”
He stared at his unconscious older brother and at the medicinal extract in the bowl before taking a spoonful of it into his mouth. Then, with an unflinching look, he lowered his head, opened his brother’s mouth, and fed the medicine to his brother.
After it was done, he felt really complicated as he used the back of his hand to wipe his mouth.
“It’s done.”
“Okay.”
Only then did she turn back and check Samuel’s pulse again.
Moments later, she informed, “The two types of poison in his body have calmed down for now. However, the poison that’s rapidly aging his body needs to be treated as soon as possible. Based on his body’s condition, he’ll only survive for four more days even with the Garcia family’s medical skills.”
When Steven heard that, he was shocked. I really hope Natalie and Justin made good progress.
