During the medical examination, Jordan Guthrie stayed by her side the whole time. Seeing her complexion grow more and more wretched, he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. After one of the tests was completed, he supported her as she sat down on the couch.
"Joy, let's rest a little before we continue," he suggested.
Joy Parker breathed out a faint sigh and gave a slight nod in agreement.
Had it not been for this examination, she would not have realized just how weak her body had become.
It was just a physical check-up, yet her body was already failing to cope with it.
Her vision darkened in waves, and her sight began to blur. Jordan Guthrie had someone pour her a cup of hot water. Looking at her dry, pale lips, he felt a wave of pain in his heart. He carefully helped her drink the water, and only when her lips moistened did he feel a bit of comfort in his mind.
