Chapter 197
Vincent frowned due to the intense agony and disgust.
Vincent, open your mouth. Lola said.
Vincent opened his mouth nervously. The golden parasite carrying a wriggling bloody bug with its mouth flew out and landed on the disposal tray.
The transparent child parasite turned red after sucking blood, wriggling in pain.
The golden parasite tore the child parasite and began to nibble att
Meanwhile, in the basement of a house in Jacaster, Nancy, who was tied to the cross, felt a sharp pain in her heart as if something were eating at her heart.
Her scarred body was soaked in cold sweat. Because her mouth was covered with a rag, she could only make a whimpering. sound.
She struggled desperately, and her wide eyes, nose, and ears began to bleed. Even the rag in her mouth was soaked with blood
She started convulsing.
Someone removed the rag from her mouth.
Nancy laughed frantically and said while vomiting blood, “Vincent is dead. Hahaha! At least we die at the same time!”
The man snorted. “This is the sign of his cure. You are dying alone! Idiot!”
Nancy’s eyes were full of disbelief. “No way! Impossible!”
After saying that, she lowered her head and remained motionless. Her eyes were filled with shock and unwillingness.
The man waved his hand, and two men came over to untie Nancy, place her in a body bag, and drag her to the rear of the structure, where they threw her carelessly onto the ground. They doused the bag with gasoline and set it ablaze.
It was Zane’s idea to let Nancy know Vincent was still alive before she died. This woman was too hateful for Zane to let her pass away peacefully.
He was relieved at the news of Nancy’s death.
Zane rushed into the room after seeing Vincent vomit blood.
Stephanie looked stern. “He needs surgery right away for his perforated stomach.” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Zane nodded and ran toward the door with Vincent on his back.
Stephanie subconsciously wanted to go with them, but she remembered that Lola’s heart was also seriously injured. She held her shoulder with both hands and said, “I will take you to the operating room.
Lola’s body was oozing cold sweat. She twisted her eyebrows. “Wait a minute, I will say goodbye to my baby”
Stephanie couldn’t follow Lola, but then she saw the golden parasite begin to writhe painfully on the disposal plate. “Nice,” Lola said, grabbing the scissors and prodding the parasite.
The golden parasite let out a sizzling scream and stopped moving, and Lola spat out a mouthful of blood before passing our

Stephanie felt Lola’s pulse og her neck, but it was not moving.
Stephanie was very frightened. It never occurred to her that Lol would have to be 7 to save Vincent
Trembling in devastation. Stephanie came to her senses quickly picked her up, and rushed to the operating room.
Although Stephanie was worried about Vincent’s situation, she knew that his life was not in danger and Lola’s condition was more critical.
She immediately changed into a surgical gown to rescue Lola,
Bringing someone back to life from death was not an easy task. After three hours, Lola’s condition stabilized..
Stephanie sat down on the ground and let out a long sigh.
Even though it was only three hours–a brief period in her medical career–she felt like two centuries had passed, because aside from the fear of losing Lola, she also experienced guilt.
Had she known that saving Vincent would mean sacrificing another person’s life, she and Vincent would not have agreed to
it
A nurse said. “Doctor, we will send the patient to the ICU.”
Stephanie stood up, removed her gloves, shook Lola’s hand, and nodded.
Lola was taken to the ICU for observation, while Vincent was taken to a general ward after surgery
Stephanie changed her clothes and hurried to the ward.
Vincent had woken up. Dressed in a hospital gown, he had an anti–inflammatory infusion on the back of his hand and a
blanket around his waist.
At the sight of Stephanie standing in the doorway, he raised his hand.
Stephanie closed the door and walked quickly to him. She bent over and hugged him, trembling.
Vincent felt his ears wet. He patted her back and said feebly, “Don’t cry. I’m fine.”
Stephanie nodded. She got up and sat on the chair beside the bed, holding his hand. T’m happy that you are safe now.”
Vincent replied, “I will be cautious in the future. I won’t let this happen again.”
Stephanie nodded. “Nancy is dead.”
Vincent’s eyes became slightly cold. “She had it coming. She deserved it. How’s Lola?”
Stephanie pursed her lips before saying. After removing the parasite inside you, Lola killed the golden parasite. She stopped breathing before she had time to explain why. But I guess it’s because the golden parasite was very painful after eating a concentric parasite. Usually, the parasite and its parasite trainer live or die together. Lola was also in pain, so she chose to end the parasite and her life. I spent three hours in the operating room and finally brought her back to life. That was why I didn’t operate on you”
Vincent frowned. “I had no idea that she would have to give up her life and her parasite to save me. Had I known this, I would have given up the treatment.”
Stephanie lowered her eyes and said, “The concentric parasite can only be removed by the parasite trainer. The problem isn’t that it can’t be eliminated; rather, no one wants to give up their own life to save another. I have an idea.”
“What?”

“I want to bring Lola and Elds back to Jacaster with us after the problem between the three villages has been solved.”
“Ok”
Stephanie took a cotton swab and dipped it in water to moisten Vincent’s lip. “You have to live on intravenous nutrient therapies now. You can eat Hquid food a week later. But you aren’t allowed to eat spicy food or drink alcohol from now on.”
Vincent sighed.
Stephanie asked. “What’s the matter?”
“I can’t eat your favorite Crab Rangoon with you anymore.”
Stephanie smiled lightly. “After a check–up in a year, you may eat some if you have no health issues. You can have crayfish and drink some beer with me by then.”
“Some is not enough. I can risk my life to keep you company”
“But I don’t want you to risk your life. I want to grow old with your
Vincent rubbed her palm and said, “Stephie, my mental…”
Don’t won. I am sure I can develop an antidote. Trust me.
“I believe you.
Just then, someone pushed open the ward’s door.
Zane came in carrying a food bag.
He said to Stephanie, “Mrs. Fletcher, this is gruel and bread Fletcher asked me to get for you after he woke up.”
Placing the bag on the table, Zane took out the boxes and left the ward.
Vincent squeezed her hand and said, “Try it”
Stephanie sniffed and her eyes went red.
It surprised her that when Vincent awoke from anesthesia, his first thought was concern for her hunger.
“Why are you so nice?” she asked.
“Because you are my woman. Have some before the taste changes when it gets cold.”
Stephanie opened the lunch box, and the aroma instantly filled the room.
She felt hungry at the fragrance.
However, it seemed cruel to eat delicious food in front of someone who couldn’t eat. She looked at Vincent and said, “How about I go eat outside?”
Vincent smiled and said. “It’s okay. You can eat here.”
Without considering Vincent’s opinion of her demeanor, Stephanie devoured the food
After finishing eating, Stephanie put the lunch box into the bag.
Vincent patted the bed and said, “Come and get some rest with me.”
د
Stephanie shook her head–1 will lean on the bed…”
“Come here” Vincent moved aside, and Stephanie hurriedly helped him. “Be careful.”
The hospital bed was big enough for Vincent to make space for her.
Lying beside her, Stephanie looked at Vincent and kissed him on his side face.
Vincent looked at her bloodshot eyes and felt distressed. “Close your eyes.”
“Yeah” Stephanie closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Feeling exhausted and drained from the operation, Vincent glanced at her face before drifting off to sleep.
They slept through the night.
During this period, Zane asked the nurse to change Vincent’s medicine twice.
When Stephanie woke up and opened her eyes, she met his eyes. She then looked outside the window and said, “Vincent, I should go back to the village.”
