Departure with a Belly (Alaric and Victoria)

Chapter 480

On the other hand, Jessie was taken aback when she saw Victoria puke like that, and

she dashed off to find Bane.

When he heard the news, he immediately put down his work and hurried to Victoria.

Jessie followed behind him, saying as she walked, “Miss Selwyn had a poor appetite

and ate very little before this, Mr. Morison, but this morning she vomited everything she

ate.” She paused momentarily, then continued, “Miss Selwyn doesn’t seem in good

condition. Mr. Morison, why don’t you… Get the doctor again? Or bring Miss Selwyn to

the hospital? She hasn’t eaten properly for the past few days.”

When Bane heard that, he came to a halt and waved to a nearby servant, and when the

servant approached, he said, “Get the doctor.”

Jessie sighed in relief when she heard him ask someone to call the doctor. She wanted

to suggest it two days ago, but she was afraid he would disagree or think it was

unlucky. Today, however, after seeing Victoria in such a state, she could take it no

longer and made the suggestion. Then, she glanced at him, thinking he still cared

deeply about Victoria. She pondered whether he would accept her other suggestion if

she made it now. Perhaps, she could try her luck. After all, Victoria was so good to her,

and she didn’t want anything bad to happen to her. After some thought, she tentatively

spoke up. “Mr. Morison, I have an immature suggestion, and I wonder if you’d like to hear it.”

Bane, whose attention was squarely on Victoria, frowned upon hearing her words. I

don’t want to hear anything right now, but she’s been caring for Victoria all along. Also,

Victoria seems to like her. At this thought, he managed to retain some patience. He

walked quickly but still reached up and pinched between his eyebrows as he said, “Go

ahead.”

“This is just my opinion, but Miss Selwyn’s mental condition doesn’t seem too good… Of

course, Mr. Morison, I have no intention of cursing Miss Selwyn. What I meant is…

Aside from getting a doctor to treat her physical illness, would you consider getting one

to address her psychological needs?”

After hearing this, he said nothing.

However, Jessie didn’t know what he was thinking, so she said again, “I only brought it

up because I noticed something strange about Miss Selwyn’s condition. It’s okay if you

disagree with this, Mr. Morison.”

While they were talking, they arrived at their destination. Before Bane entered the room,

he turned around to glance at her. “All right, got it. We’ll let a common doctor examine

her first.” With that, he went straight into the room. Before entering, he reflected on how

Victoria had previously treated him. Although he approached cautiously out of concern

that she would hate him, he ultimately decided to charge in after considering the pain

she must be in.

However, when the two approached the couch, they discovered that Victoria had

passed out while lying on it.

“Miss Selwyn!” Jessie was startled, and she rushed over to nudge Victoria.

“Don’t touch her.” The man’s voice sounded from behind.

When she heard that, she hastily scooted to the side, not daring to touch Victoria again.

Afterward, Bane walked over and picked Victoria up from the couch, carrying her and

carefully placing her on the bed.

In all the time she had spent there, this was the first time she had ever passed out.

Now, she was unconscious on the bed, with a pale face and shallow breathing.

“Go and see if the doctor is here already. If not, call him and tell him to get his *ss here

right now!”

Jessie was shocked when she heard that. Mr. Morison even uses derogatory language,

implying his emotions are extremely foul. After that, she didn’t dare delay as she hastily

got up and ran outside. “Okay, I’ll ask right away.”

At this time, only Bane remained in the room. He observed that Victoria’s forehead was

covered in a cold sweat, so he pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped it

gently. During the process, his expression was as dark as ink. When he was done, he

gazed at the fainted woman. Her face was as white as a sheet, and there wasn’t even

much color in her lips.

Suddenly, he had a particular thought when he saw her in that condition for the first

time in eons. Have I done something wrong by forcing her to stay with him? She doesn’t

like me, and we could’ve been friends, but now… When did things start going south.

have to turn out this way, I wish she hadn’t helped me; otherwise, I wouldn’t have such

high hopes. At that thought, he gently tucked away the stray hair on her forehead, then

pulled the blanket over her. “Hang in there. The doctor will be here soon.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and when it was

opened, Jessie and the doctor entered the room.

“Mr. Morison, the doctor is here.”

It was the same doctor as before, and he didn’t seem surprised, as if he knew this day

was coming. “What’s the situation?” When he walked closer, he realized Victoria had

passed out, and his expression changed instantly. This is even worse than I had feared.

When he was here before, he assumed he would see this girl again, but he had no idea

that things would worsen. He frowned, walked closer to her, and asked, “What

happened? How did she faint?”

However, Bane looked at him coldly,

Sensing that he was in a foul mood, the doctor could only turn to Jessie. “What

happened before she fainted?”

Then, she filled the doctor in on what happened with Victoria.

After hearing her words, the doctor frowned. “I didn’t think her heart would be this

burdened already.”

Bane instantly looked at the doctor because of what he said.

“Her condition is deteriorating too quickly; she’s already unable to eat anything. I believe

I’m no longer required here. You should take her to the hospital for an examination or

seek counseling from a psychologist.”

When Bane heard the doctor’s words, he pursed his lips tightly and chose not to reply.

After hearing this, Jessie asked, “Doctor, can you prescribe some medicine for Miss

Selwyn?”

“What medicine? She has psychological problems, right? What medicine can l

prescribe? Do you think she’ll get better if she takes more medicine? They’re called

drugs for a reason, and if you take too much medicine when you’re healthy, you’ll get

sick.”

When she heard his speech, she felt extremely embarrassed. “W–Well, what should we

do, then?”

“As I said, get a psychologist for some counseling.”

“Give her some medicine.” Bane, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up
