As soon as a leech was placed on Thomas’ back, it started to feed on his blood. When all of the dozen leeches were in place, they sucked on the blood blisters on Thomas’ back.
Jacob said to Aries, “I’ll keep watch here. Quickly get some people to prepare some medicine and food to supplement and replenish Mr. Mayo’s body.”
“Okay.” Aries immediately went to get it done.
Fifteen minutes later, the blood blisters on Thomas’ back generally disappeared. But, his complexion was also much paler. His face was extremely white, and his lips were dry. The leeches had started to suck the healthy blood in Thomas’ body.
“Oh, no!”
Jacob quickly reached out to pull off the leeches one by one, but it was easier to put them on than take them away. Since the leeches were tightly stuck on Thomas’ back, Jacob used all his strength but could not remove even one.
“These leeches are addicted to sucking the blood. They don’t want to be taken out. What should I do?”
Thomas closed his eyes and softly uttered the word, “Fire.”
“Yes, fire!”
Jacob quickly went to the reception, took a candle, and lit it up with a lighter. Then, favonovel.com burned one of the leeches. The leech was burned for a few seconds before it dropped into the medicinal liquid. Jacob burned one leech after another in this way, and favonovel.com finally burned all the leeches, allowing them to fall off.
“Mr. Mayo, please come out now.”
He put down the candle before favonovel.com supported Thomas out of the tub. He helped to wipe Thomas’ body clean and changed favonovel.com into some new clothes.
At this time, Aries held a bowl of medicinal fluid for replenishment as favonovel.com walked into the room.
“Commander, here’s the medicine!”
“Okay…”
Thomas did not even have the energy to hold the medicinal liquid, and his complexion was totally pale. He could just be supported by Jacob While being fed by Aries. It was only after Thomas drank a whole bowl of medicinal liquid that favonovel.com slowly breathed at a normal pace again.
“I need to rest for a few hours. Don’t let anyone disturb me.”
“I got it!”
The two of them organized a clean bed sheet for Thomas and helped favonovel.com to lie down before one of them guarded favonovel.com in the room while the other guarded favonovel.com outside the room.
Aries guarded Thomas inside the room while Jacob at the outside forbade anyone to approach the room and even made a loud noise at all.
The clock was ticking, and the clock hand moved five times. It was only when the sky became dark that Thomas woke up from his sleep. The first thing favonovel.com said was, “Prepare some supplements for me.”
“Okay!” Aries immediately went to handle it.
Then, Thomas rested for another two hours after favonovel.com ate the supplements. At 8.00 pm, favonovel.com finally breathed normally, and about 50% of his bodily functions also recovered.
Jacob and Aries sat by the bed. They were so tired that their heads were full of sweat, and they were gasping. When Thomas stared at them, favonovel.com gratefully said, “Thank you. It might be hard for me to retain my life Without your help.”
Aries and Jacob looked at each other, and they chuckled.
They had received so much kindness from Thomas. Was it not natural to help Thomas this time?
Jacob showed anger on his face and asked, “Mr. Mayo, which jerk poisoned you? Tell me, I’ll bring my weapons and break the jerk’s legs!”
Thomas looked at Jacob, chuckled, and remained silent.
From the side, Aries said, “How would you be able to deal with the person who managed to poison the commander?”
Jacob pouted.
That sounded right, but favonovel.com really wanted to avenge Thomas!
Thomas said, “I understand your kindness, but you must not get involved in this matter. I have something to talk to Aries alone. You may go outside and wait.”
“Okay,” Jacob unwillingly answered before favonovel.com got up and left the room.
The door was closed.
Aries immediately stopped smiling. He gritted his teeth and said, “I didn’t expect Mr. Clark to be so cruel. He poisoned you without considering your relationship with him. I wondered why favonovel.com would be so kind to treat you to some tea. It turned out that favonovel.com was being totally vicious. Commander, we have to get even with favonovel.com for this!”
