After saying this, Natalia raised the disposable paper cup in her hand that she had filled with the water
she had just fetched.
James wasn't sure how to dissuade Natalia, but since she wanted to give Mr. Magnus some water, he
decided to let her. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
James walked over to Magnus, reaching out to help him untie the bindings on his body, allowing him to
drink the water Natalia had brought in.
"Magnus?" James untied the ropes while softly calling out to Magnus.
Magnus had just been knocked unconscious by Carter and was startled awake by the sound. His eyes
were a fiery red as he glared at James and growled in a harsh, grating voice, "Tea! Give me tea!"
Tears flowed down Natalia's cheeks as she approached Magnus with the paper cup. "The tea is here,
right here."
Overjoyed, Magnus eyed the cup in Natalia's hand and snatched it. "Give it to me, now!"
Noticing the desire in Magnus’ eyes, Natalia knew that he was deeply addicted. She carefully stepped
forward, bringing the paper cup to Magnus' lips. However, before she could lift the cup, Magnus had
already leaned down and began to desperately suck the water from the cup. "Tea, give me tea!"
Magnus' roar made Natalia shudder, and she almost dropped the paper cup she was holding. The
droplets splashed from the cup to Magnus' mouth. Eagerly, he licked his lips and then bellowed
uncontrollably, "This isn't tea! You lied to me! This isn't tea at all! Give me tea! Now!"
His roar echoed like thunder, causing the whole room to tremble!
Tears welled up in Natalia’s eyes as she strived to bring the cup to Magnus' lips. "Magnus, this is the
tea you wanted. Please, just take a sip. Your lips are cracked from thirst. Could you please drink
some?"
However, Magnus was deaf to Natalia's pleas. All he could think about was a cup of his beloved tea.
He glared at Natalia, yelling, "Get lost! This isn't the tea I wanted! I only want my usual tea. Get it for
me! Now!"
"This is your usual tea. Just taste it, really, once you taste it, you’ll know,” Natalia patiently coaxed
Magnus, her voice soft.
Though Magnus was delirious, he was moved by Natalia’s gentle tone and sorrowful eyes. Suddenly,
he reached out and grabbed Natalia’s hand. “Is that you, my dear?”
Tears rolled down Natalia’s cheeks. “It’s me, Magnus. It’s Natalia. Look at me. I know you’re in pain, but
hang in there. You'll feel better soon."
Magnus' temper seemed to soften at the sound of her gentle voice. In a hoarse voice, he asked, "My
dear, can you make me some tea?"
"Of course, I'll make it right away!" Natalia replied, tears streaming down her face.
She fetched some fine tea leaves and made some tea. "Magnus, drink up. This is your favorite tea."
"Really?"
"Yes, really. Taste it, and you'll know." Natalia nodded repeatedly, hoping Magnus would drink the tea.
Magnus eyed Natalia suspiciously, glaring at her as if she were an enemy. Suddenly, his eyes turned
vicious, and he snarled, "Give me another sip. If this isn't tea, you're dead!"
Natalia lifted the cup to Magnus' lips, carefully feeding him the tea. Magnus took a sip and spat out the
tea in a fit of rage. He then bit Natalia's hand, shouting, "You liar! I'll kill you! This isn't the tea I wanted!"
His sudden action caught James and Dr. Frankie off guard. By the time they reacted, Magnus had
already bitten down hard on Natalia's hand.
"Ouch...Magnus, let go, it hurts," Natalia cried out in pain, pleading for Magnus to let go.
But Magnus held onto Natalia's hand, not loosening his grip at all. His eyes were fixed on Natalia as he
growled, "I want tea!"
"Alright, we'll get you tea. Just let her go first." James tried to reason with Magnus, noticing the blood
slowly dripping from Natalia's bitten hand.
"Tea first!" Magnus grumbled again, still not letting go of Natalia's hand.
"This isn't working. Dr. Frankie, hurry!" James knew they couldn't delay any longer and signaled Dr.
Frankie to quickly administer the antidote.
Dr. Frankie immediately fetched a syringe. "But I'm not sure..."
James shot Dr. Frankie a stern look. “What’s there to be sure about? Can’t you see Natalia’s hand is
almost getting bitten off? Hurry up! If anything happens, it's on me! If he dies, I'll join him in the grave!
And if he finds out he hurt Natalia while out of his senses, you'll be the first one he kills!"
With this, Dr. Frankie gathered some courage, took a deep breath, and walked over to Magnus,
injecting the freshly mixed antidote into his exposed vein.
The pain caused Magnus to release Natalia's hand. He then turned to Dr. Frankie, his bloody lips
curling into a snarl. "What are you injecting me with? Are you trying to poison me?"
Dr. Frankie's hand shook, but he quickly composed himself and continued to administer the antidote.
As Dr. Frankie kept silent and still injecting him, Magnus began to curse, "Get away from me! Don't use
that needle on me. Get me tea!"
However, Dr. Frankie remained undeterred by Magnus' howls, methodically administering the antidote.
In the midst of this chaos, Natalia finally managed to wrench her right hand from Magnus' mouth.
Looking at the mangled flesh of her hand, the ache in Natalia's heart surpassed the pain in her hand.
She knew that Magnus was enduring immense pain at this moment, and she couldn't share any of it. If
her blood could soothe him, she was ready to let him bite!
"Goodness, Natalia, you should get to the doctor right away. It might get infected!" James exclaimed,
his heart filled with pity as he looked at Natalia's mangled hand. "I can't believe he bit you! Why did he
bite so hard?"
Natalia just shook her head. "I'm fine. This minor injury is nothing compared to the pain Magnus is
going through."
She then returned her worried gaze to Dr. Frankie, who was still administering the antidote into
Magnus' bloodstream. "Dr. Frankie, will the antidote work?"
Dr. Frankie had already pushed all the antidote into Magnus' veins. Hearing Natalia's question, he gave
a shaky shake of his head. "Honestly, I'm not entirely confident," he admitted. "This poison is just too
potent."
