Chapter: 1747

Xavier was furious at her for being so carefree, but he was also terrified because he knew how poisonous kraits were. Anxious, Xavier held Leia around the waist and quickly swam to the surface. Both Santiago and Skylar also realized that something was wrong, and followed them to the surface.

�I need help! Get a speedboat to send her to the hospital!� Xavier�s face was pale as he yelled at Billy on the beach.

�What happened?� Santiago quickly swam to Leia and asked worriedly.

�Ugh, it�s nothing. An insect bit me�� Leia showed him the bite mark, feeling like Xavier was overreacting. The truth was that she wouldn�t feel anything yet because the venom took a while to act.

Ignoring their concern, Leia held up the moonstone and showed it off to everyone on the beach.

�Look! I found a moonstone� I�� Suddenly, her vision started to blur, and her hand started to feel numb. �What�s going on? I� I can�t feel my hand,� Leia whimpered, starting to panic.

�Oh, now you�re scared! It�s the snake venom,� Xavier snapped as he took off his diving suit and carried Leia.

�Snake venom?� Santiago was following them closely, and his body tensed up when he heard that. �Lei was bitten by a snake? Didn�t I ask you to take care of her? What did you do? I wouldn�t have given you the opportunity if I knew you were so unreliable!� Santiago was regretting letting Xavier be Leia�s dive buddy.

He thought that Xavier was reliable, but clearly he was wrong. Thanks to his error, Leia was in trouble. Xavier was walking quickly towards the beach, but he stopped when he heard Santiago�s words. He spun around, his eyes blazing.

�Who do you think you are? What right do you have to speak to me like that? Leia is my woman, and I�ll handle it if anything happens to her. I don�t need an outsider like you to judge me.�

Santiago�s eyes narrowed.

�Outsider?�

Santiago felt like Xavier was the most opinionated and arrogant man he had ever met. �Have you ever asked Lei what she wants? Who is the outsider here, you or me?� He approached Xavier angrily, wanting to take Leia from him.

At that moment, Leia was feeling weak, and her lips were pale. She looked at them and groaned, �Can you two stop fighting? I�m dying here! Hurry up� and get me to the hospital!� Too weak to hold on, she blacked out and lost consciousness.

When Leia woke up, she found herself lying on a hospital bed. Both Xavier and Santiago were sitting in front of her bed, and she could feel that the atmosphere between them was tense. However, the most important thing was that she was alive.

�Lei, you�re awake! Are you thirsty? I�ll get you some water.� When Santiago saw Leia open her eyes, his eyes lit up.

�Of course she�s thirsty, she�s been in a coma for two days! If you didn�t talk so much, she�d be drinking water by now,� Xavier snapped as he handed Leia a cup of warm water.

Leia wanted to reach out and take the cup, but found that she couldn�t move her right hand. She looked at her hand in horror, realizing she couldn�t feel it.

�My� My hand�� Numerous possibilities dawned on her, and her face went pale. Did the venom enter her bones and ruin her hand? Would it need to be amputated?

�Don�t worry, your hand is okay. The numbness hasn�t gone away because there�s still venom in you,� Santiago comforted Leia gently. JrNovels.com
