Chapter 1197 Jamie, You Don't Believe Me?
Adrian paused.
After Adrian left, Jamie looked at Andrea lying on the bed.
Andrea was on a ventilator because acute allergies had caused swelling in her internal organs, especially her throat, making it impossible for her to breathe on her own.
Jamie looked at Andrea with concern in his eyes, but at the same time, he was helpless about Andrea's actions.
In the Howard family, no one could force Andrea to do something she didn't like.
Even though Andrea had been in a coma for seven years, she was always the daughter of the Howard family.
This time, before coming to the ward, Jamie had asked the doctor about the allergy—it was a kiwi allergy.
Jamie had always known that Andrea was allergic to kiwis, so there were never any in the house.
When she was a child, Andrea had developed a rash all over her body after taking a small bite.
This time, it was even more severe, causing her to fall into a coma and be unable to breathe on her own.
And Natalie, Jamie thought of her, the one with the gentle smile who pushed his wheelchair and asked if he needed help.
The Natalie he remembered was not that kind of person.
Natalie didn't know Andrea was allergic to kiwis, but Andrea herself did!
She knew and still ate it!
This was clearly an attempt to frame Natalie.
Sitting by the bedside, Jamie waited for almost half an hour before Andrea woke up.
She looked around, didn't see Adrian, and felt a bit disappointed. Her eyes dimmed. She was so severely allergic, why wasn't Adrian by her side?
She propped herself up on her arms, trying to sit up. Jamie reached out to support her. Andrea looked at Jamie, seemingly a bit afraid of him. "Jamie, why are you here?"
"As soon as you fell into a coma, the Howard family called me. How are you feeling now? Is there anywhere that still feels uncomfortable?"
Andrea shook her head. "I'm okay, just feel very itchy."
"You have rashes all over your body now. The doctor said it will take at least half a month to heal. Here's some ointment; apply a little if it itches."
"Jamie, didn't Adrian come?" Andrea couldn't help but ask.
Jamie looked at her deeply. "Andrea, do you know how dangerous what you did was? You're allergic to kiwis. Consuming a large amount can cause you to go into shock. Have you thought about the consequences of your actions?"
"Jamie, are you blaming me? It was an accident. It was Natalie, Natalie gave it to me. I drank it and only then realized it was kiwi juice." Andrea looked at Jamie, her eyes misty, looking pitiful.
Jamie's pupils darkened. "Andrea, I asked the doctor. You still need an IV later. Since you're awake, sit for a while. The doctor will come to check on you soon."
"Jamie, you don't believe me?" Andrea seemed very surprised that Jamie didn't believe her.
She suddenly grabbed Jamie's hand. "Jamie, you don't even believe me?"
"Andrea, it's not that I don't believe you, but don't you think your story has too many holes? I know Natalie better than you do. She wouldn't do that, let alone force you. On the contrary, don't you think you're being a bit excessive?"
"Excessive? Jamie, have you also been charmed by Natalie? You said you would always care for me and protect me from harm, but you believe Natalie! Natalie is the reason I'm like this. Ever since I woke up, everything has changed. You and Adrian used to be so close to me, so caring and loving."
