Chapter 548
Perhaps there was already a familial bond between him and Trinity. Or maybe I was overly concerned with the gains and losses between Trinity and Ivanna. I couldn’t think of a reason for them to coexist. In my mind, it seemed like a situation of either black or white, with no room for coexistence.
“Do you want the ultimate result to be coexistence?” I still didn’t look at Jared, keeping my gaze on Trinity inside. I directly asked the question that had been lingering in my mind, and then I looked at him, posing a serious question, “Can you achieve that?”
He stood firmly, still not looking at me but staring at Trinity inside. “I will strive for it.”
“But have you considered their feelings?” My guess was spot on.
“I will do my best to balance their relationship and make sure they both accept it,” he said without hesitation.
I chuckled. He was quite confident to try to control two strong-willed opposites, and I had to commend his courage for that.
I remained silent because at this moment, anything I said felt pale, and besides, this was Jared, not someone I could influence.
When Atlas arrived, I was on the phone with Ivanna, updating her on Trinity’s condition. Seeing Atlas, I quickly hung up the call and asked him about the blood sample, telling him the situation was optimistic. True to his word, Atlas had already sent the blood sample to Jitador. I knew he was doing everything he could to ease my concerns.
After 24 hours, Trinity was transferred to a regular ward. I continued to stand by her side until she woke up and saw me. Her first question was, “Does this mean we’re friends?”
I felt overwhelmed with guilt, managing a wry smile. “I’m truly grateful for you saving my life. But I must admit, this isn’t the ideal way to make friends. It’s a bit too dramatic.”
Trinity, still pale, managed a weak smile and said, “You’re quite presumptuous… I wouldn’t stoop so low as to bargain my life for someone else’s. I was just unlucky, that’s all.” Hearing her words, I added, “I never imagined that the person I least wanted to owe would end up being a life debt. It feels a bit too heavy.”
We both chuckled.
Then she smirked mischievously. “It’s irreversible now. Chloe, you owe me.”
“Yes. So, I have no intention of avoiding it. From now on, you’re not just a friend, but a friend I owe my life to.”
“Don’t make it sound like I had no
choice but to be friends with you Actually, I don’t need friends. I only need partners.” When she said this, she glanced at Jared. S
For some reason, I suddenly felt a pang of bitterness. I wanted to understand this woman more.
I thought everything was getting better, but in the evening, Trinity’s condition suddenly worsened.
I received a call from Atlas, who was rushing to the airport to return to Jitador personally and find the antidote.
Upon hearing this news when I got home, I immediately drove back to the hospital.
Trinity had been transferred back to the intensive care unit.
I asked Jared what was going on.
“The blood test results showed abnormal data. There was a sudden increase in toxin levels. She’s fallen into a coma again,” Jared said with a grave expression.
“How could this happen?” I felt powerless to stop the escalating situation.
At that moment, one of Jared’s subordinates hurriedly entered, whispered something in his ear, and his face instantly darkened. He turned to me and instructed, “Stay here and notify me immediately if there’s any news. I need to step out for a moment.”
He then briskly walked out.
