Kneeling for a Second Chance Novel

---- Chapter 308 Sebastian felt his eyelids growing heavy. It seemed to be a kind of protective mechanism since his body was feeling unwell. He was exhausted, and he grabbed her hand instinctively. Then, he shut his eyes to rest for a while. As he drifted into sleep, his grip on Valeria's hand slowly loosened. Once he was asleep, Valeria left. She returned home, showered, and changed into fresh clothes. After she opened a can of food for Potato, she suddenly remembered that Nemo was alone at Sebastian's home. She opened the door to Sebastian's place and filled Nemo's bowl with food.

"Your owner's fine now." Nemo seemed to understand. After finishing its food, it sprawled on the couch and went back to sleep. Valeria went into Sebastian's bedroom and took out a set of clean loungewear. Then, she stuffed it into a paper bag, planning to bring it to the hospital later. She opened her laptop and read the meeting summary Willow had sent that morning. At that moment, Kayla called and asked Valeria what had ---- happened. Valeria kept it brief. After all, there was no way she could recount everything from the night before in just a few sentences. Kayla was silent for a while.

"Has Sebastian gone mad?" "Probably." Valeria thought about how he had swallowed that necklace last night and shuddered. She suddenly remembered that the necklace was still in the drawer of the hospital nightstand. If Sebastian woke up, surely he wouldn't do something so extreme again? "T'll have to take a few days off. If anything comes up, just message me," Valeria added. She had just hung up the call with Kayla when another one came through. "This is the Gastroenterology ward at Broburgh City Hospital. Are you the family of the patient in bed 16?

Could you come over?" The voice on the other end sounded hurried, so Valeria's mind immediately jumped to the necklace left in the drawer. She quickly asked if he had swallowed it again. The nurse replied, "He didn't, but he's refusing to cooperate with the IV drip. We just set it up, and he shut it off. He said he won't take it if you're not here." The nurse had never seen a patient like this. "['ll be right there." Valeria rubbed her temples, Sebastian was acting like a child throwing a tantrum. ---- Before she left, she packed a power bank, a charging cable, anda thick coat.

She paused for a moment, looking at the coat. Was she really going to stay overnight at his bedside again? Valeria shook her head and put down the coat. An hour later, she arrived at the hospital. At the nurse's station, several nurses were looking at the medical records and whispering while gossiping. "Theard that bed 16 actually swallowed a necklace and injured his throat." An older nurse replied calmly , "That's nothing. A few years ago, we had a patient who swallowed a diamond ring.

He needed a tube down his throat and almost didn't make it." She pointed at a banner on the wall, adding, "The patient's family sent that to us after he was saved." The nurses exclaimed in surprise. "But that guy on bed 16 is so handsome . To think someone like that would kill himself over his girlfriend. He won't even take an IV drip unless she's here. He's like a kid, throwing a fit when he opens his eyes and doesn't see her." "Zip it. His girlfriend is here..." Valeria hurried over, dressed in light blue. ---- "Sorry for all the trouble.

I've ordered coffee for you all." Her voice was soft and gentle. "It'll be delivered soon." "Thank you." The older nurse smiled. "But you didn't need to trouble yourself." After Valeria walked away, the nurses leaned forward again. "If Thad a girlfriend like that," one of them commented, "I'd panic too if she wanted to break up." Valeria entered the ward.
