StarNovelVania gazed at Hanson with his eyes closed as he lay on the bed. At the same time, she had a sore
throat as her eyes were red, and she called out to the man hoarsely, “Hanson? Hanson, it’s me, Vania.
Can you hear me?” However, when the man lying in bed didn’t respond, she desperately called out to
him one more time. “Hanson.”
In the meantime, Larry cried tearfully at the sight of Vania’s reaction. “President Luke, please wake up.
Miss Greyson has come to visit you. Please, Mr. Luke.” Nonetheless, April, who was watching from the
side, covered his face while trying hard not to burst into laughter.
I’m not dead yet, so why is he crying as if I am? Hanson gritted his teeth and thought to himself. Gosh!
I can’t stand his terrible acting. I wish I could just come back to life. Anyway, I guess I should be
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgrateful that Vania still hasn’t noticed anything. Soon, Hanson gently nudged Larry with his hand that
was under the bed, gesturing to him to tone down his dramatic reaction.
On the other hand, Vania was so worried about Hanson that she didn’t notice his rosy cheeks and
Larry’s fishy behavior. As she spoke in a trembling voice, she looked at Larry in a melancholic manner.
“What’s going on? What happened to Hanson?”
“P-President Luke…” Larry cried so hard that he struggled to complete his sentence, but deep down,
he was trying hard to think how he should reply. They hadn’t anticipated Vania’s question, so they did
not rehearse accordingly. After all, he was afraid he would say the wrong thing and ruin Hanson’s plan,
which was why he decided to respond by crying. However, what Vania failed to notice was that Larry
didn’t shed a single tear despite his loud cries.
Upon seeing Larry’s ‘tearful’ look, Vania shook her head and helplessly let out a sigh as she forced
herself to calm down. “Please take it easy, Larry. Could you please tell me what’s going on? I’m sure
we can discuss whatever problem that may be and find a solution for it together.”
What? How am I supposed to know what’s going on? Larry was lost in the midst of the farce, but he
was able to think on his feet in time and directed the attention to April. He then said in a trembling
voice, “The doctor is right there. President Luke…” Upon finishing his words, he hugged Hanson and
continued to cry out loud, although he still couldn’t shed a single tear.
While April was enjoying the show with amusement, he was quickly stunned by the attention that Larry
had just directed to him. Oh, boy! Not now! Upon hearing himself being called out, he stood there in a
trance. “Well, this is…” Upon sensing Vania’s gaze fixed upon him while waiting for his answer, April
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhad no choice but to think of something to say. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Luke. Hanson is fine. He took his
medication and is just out cold for the time being, so don’t worry too much about him.”
Upon learning that Hanson’s unconsciousness wouldn’t endanger his health, Vania put her mind to
ease and felt relieved, but not before she asked, “Could you tell me more about his diagnosis?”
“Um. Well…” April tried hard to think of something that he could answer Vania’s question with because
Hanson hadn’t taught him what to say regarding his so-called condition. Jeez, I shouldn’t have come
here and watched the show!
However, an idea soon sprang to his mind as he sighed and said, “Hanson once had a severe food
poisoning in the past, and it has left him plagued by an illness from that point on. In fact, he’s been in
this state until now since Larry took him here last night after dinner, so I’m guessing it could be
something that he ate during his dinner. Anyway, we’ll do a check-up on him when he comes around to
find out more about his condition.”
Vania nodded, but she was seen with a worried look on her face. We were together during the
barbecue last night, weren’t we? Could it be due to the food that we were having last night?
