Chapter 1254 One Month Left

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."

She immediately checked Nicole's pulse and felt something was off.

Suddenly, a thick, darkened vein on Nicole's neck caught her attention, resembling a crawling millipede. "Supreme

voodoo bug," she murmured, the words escaping involuntarily.

Roxanna's eyes widened at the revelation. The worry she felt earlier couldn't compare to the shock of hearing

about the supreme voodoo bug in Nicole's body. "Is there any treatment for this? Is this a serious illness?" she asked

worriedly as her mind raced to recall information she had read.

After hearing this, Chloe nodded gravely, her voice laden with worry, saying, "Not only that, but Nicole may only

have a month left."

"Cough… Cough…" A sudden cough erupted from Nicole, interrupting the conversation. The revelation of her

limited time left took her breath away.

"Nicole!" Roxanna and Chloe exclaimed simultaneously.

"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.
