However, after speaking only a few words, the pain in Cynthia's throat prevented her from saying anything else. Bonnie quickly interrupted her.
"Vincent has been stabilized—"
Cynthia's eyes, which had lacked any spark due to her anxiety, suddenly lit up.
"But there's still a seven-day critical period. If he can get through these seven days, he'll be fine. If not..." Bonnie averted her gaze, unable to look at Cynthia's sorrowful expression.
Sure enough, all of Cynthia's movements froze in place, and the glimmer of light in her eyes was quickly overshadowed by a deep pain.
What? Seven more days of danger?
She felt a sharp, throbbing pain in her head. She had already been dizzy from the high fever, and now hearing that Vincent's condition was still uncertain caused her vision to darken once more, and she slipped back into unconsciousness.
