Meanwhile, Roxanna hid behind a pillar as Nicole returned to the medical base. She noticed a troubling expression on Nicole's face but chose not to disturb her, though a growing sense of unease gnawed at her. Her concern for Nicole deepened with every passing moment while she sensed something was amiss.

At this moment, Nicole lay on her bed and she was overwhelmed by a disconcerting sensation as if a thousand bugs were nibbling at her skin.

Knock! Knock!

"Nicole, you didn't look well earlier. Would you like to go for a check-up?" Roxanna's voice held genuine worry as she stood outside Nicole's room. Upon seeing Nicole's return, her intuition urged her to check on Nicole, ensuring she received timely medical attention if necessary.

After hearing this, Nicole cracked her eyes open while battling the dizziness. Then, she struggled to stand and shuffled toward the door.

In the meantime, Roxanna paced restlessly outside the corridor. Soon, the sound of activity within prompted her to stand beside the door as she waited for Nicole to open it. "Nicole! What happened?" Her gaze locked onto Nicole's pallid face. Suddenly, her concern deepened as she witnessed Nicole's feeble state as if she could collapse any moment.

Summoning her strength, Nicole shook her head weakly and leaned against the doorframe for support. "Don't worry about me. Please get Chloe."

"Okay. I'll call Chloe right after I help you out." Roxanna's brows furrowed with worry as she helped Nicole to sit on the bed before hurrying off. She knew Nicole's condition could not be delayed anymore, judging from her appearance. Her concern deepened as she felt Nicole's feeble pulse while helping her earlier, an unsettling indication that her organs had aged well beyond their years. The stark contrast within just half a day left Roxanna astonished. Ultimately, all she could do was release a heavy sigh, overwhelmed by the severity of the situation.

Meanwhile, Nicole slowly lay on her bed as her strength waned. Though she had intended to await Chloe sitting up, her body betrayed her intentions.

"Chloe, come take a look quickly. Nicole left for half a day and returned like this," Roxanna implored as she led Chloe to the room.

Chloe furrowed her brow upon seeing Nicole's appearance. She had been researching the new medicine in isolation for the past two days but did not expect Nicole's body to suffer so much in just a few days. "Let me take a look."

"Don't worry, just stay calm." Suppressing their alarm, Nicole motioned for them not to assist her. She cleared her throat, her voice ragged yet resolute.

Then, Roxanna slumped into a chair, her countenance bleak, muttering, "How is this possible?"

On the other hand, Chloe's composure faltered as she struggled to mask her anxiety.

"Both of you, please leave. We'll figure this out." Nicole's raspy voice shattered the silence, contrasting its once ethereal timbre.

After a moment's shared glance between Roxanna and Chloe, they reluctantly exited Nicole's room, resigned to doing their utmost to find a remedy and provide comfort in the time they had left.
