Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1795

Monique immediately covered her mouth, following the stretcher toward the ward.

Only the surgical doctor, Juniper, Shanley, and Ebony Fox remained in the hallway.

"Could you walk me through his condition in detail?" Juniper asked quietly. "I'd prefer to see the raw CT scans."

"Of course." The doctor gestured toward his office. "Right this way, please."

"Juniper..."

Ebony Fox finally snapped out of her daze, looking slightly disoriented. "I'm going to go see Kurt."

"Okay."

Juniper nodded, her voice gentle. "Don't worry. I'm here."

Ebony Fox forced a faint smile. "Okay."

In the office.

Juniper held Kurt's test results, examining them meticulously.

Because he had been rushed in, the examinations were somewhat hurried.

From the available scans, it was clear that Kurt had fractured his chest cavity and tailbone.

Along with a number of less severe injuries...

"We'd like to take him back to Eclara City tomorrow," Juniper said, her brows furrowing deeply.

Subterra Vanguard had far more precise diagnostic equipment.

She needed to know exactly how severe the bone fractures were.

Outside the ward.

Ebony Fox stood in the corridor, staring at Kurt lying in the hospital bed, her heart heavy.

She wanted to go in and see him so badly.

But if she entered now, Monique would definitely lose her composure.

Ebony Fox waited outside until Shanley managed to pull Kurt's parents away.

By then.

It was 3:00 AM.

Ebony Fox gently pushed open the door and walked to his bedside.

She sat down quietly, her eyes locked on his pale face.

They had been video calling just hours earlier. How did it turn into this in the blink of an eye?
