Chapter 391 Why Is This Treatment Reaction Getting Worse Again?

Josep was waiting for them to finish breakfast before hegot to work, making Stellan and Alaric feel kinda

awkward.

Noticing their discomfort, Josep quickly chimed in, "Hey, no rush, guys. I've been here a bunch but never got a

good look at your yard." Stellan jumped on that, "Easy fix. Mia, show Mr. Watkins around the yard."

"On it, Stellan." Mia turned to Josep, "Right this way, Mr. Watkins."

Mia led Josep outside. The villa's yard was massive, with a pool out back and a garden that looked like it was

straight out of a magazine. Alaric watched Josep head out, then turned to Stellan, "Josep's really serious about

my treatment. He showed up super early last ttoo." Stellan nodded, "That's just how he rolls. Super

dedicated to every patient."

Alaric asked, "Josep's been in Country A for ages. Is he planning to head back to Country M anytsoon?"

Josep had originally said he was here for academic exchange with medical experts, but it had been a while, and

he was still around. Was it just for Alaric's treatment?

If so, it seemed kinda over the top. Actually, he was just giving Alaric injections now, something even a nurse

could handle.

Stellan shrugged, "Last | heard, he was here for sexchange program. Maybe that's still going on? | haven't

really asked."

Alaric said, "Josep swings by every few days to givethese shots. | don't think it's necessary. Galatea, why

don't you talk to him and see if you can take over? No need for him to keep making these trips." Stellan, still

munching, replied, "I don't want to bug Josep either, but he seems cool with it. Honestly, I'd prefer he handles

your treatment for the next six months. With his skills, it's a no-brainer."

"Alright, it's just a lot to ask of him," Alaric said slowly.

After they finished eating, Mia brought Josep back in.

"The yard's huge, and the backyard's even more impressive. That little garden is top-notch," Josep said.

"Josep, you're welcanytime," Alaric said gratefully. "You've been a lifesaver. Galatea and | keep saying we

need to treat you to a meal to show our thanks, but we haven't had the chance." "No need for that. Treating

patients is my job," Josep said again, "Shall we get started?"

"Sure." Alaric headed back to the bedroom and lay down, with Stellan by his side. Josep gave him an injection,

and this tthe dose was pretty hefty.

Maybe because of the bigger dose, the reaction was stronger. Unlike the mild reactions before, it felt like the first

tall over again-dizzy, nauseous, and wiped out.

"How you feeling now?" Josep asked.

"A bit rough," Alaric admitted.

Hearing that, Stellan got all worried and quickly asked, "What's going on, Josep? Didn't you say after the first

treatment, the rest wouldn't be this bad?"

"Chill out, it's all good. This reaction won't stick around. A good nap will sort him out," Josep reassured, "Each

injection's a bit different, so the reactions vary. But trust me, it won't be as bad as the first time." "That's a

relief," Stellan sighed, feeling a bit better. She turned to Alaric, "Just get ssleep, Alaric. You'll feel better after

resting."

"Okay," Alaric nodded, already feeling drowsy from the meds.

Alaric soon drifted off. Stellan tucked him in and then stepped out of the bedroom with Josep.

"Josep, are you sure he'll be fine after srest?" Stellan asked, still a bit anxious.

Josep replied, "Relax, don't you trust me?"

"Of course | do. It's just hard seeing him go through this," Stellan admitted.

"Don't worry. He'll bounce back soon," Josep assured her.

Stellan felt a bit more at ease. "Alright."

Josep changed the subject, "I heard Nexus Innovations had sissues."

"Yeah, a construction accident," Stellan said, "But it's mostly sorted now. Once the public interest dies down and

the safety inspection team gives us the green light, we should be back on track." Stellan knew it wasn't that

simple, but she wanted to keep things positive.

"That's good. These things happen in business. Don't stress too much, especially with Mr. Knight not being well

and his mom just passing. He needs your support," Josep advised. Stellan nodded. "I will."

"Oh, and about Tommy," Josep added, "I saw him at Mrs. Knight's funeral. He mentioned you're paying him a lot

but he doesn't have much to do. That's not cool. Other employees might get upset." Stellan explained, "He's new

and still learning the ropes. | wanted him to shadow Silas for a bit. And his salary isn't that high."

"He's getting a general manager assistant's salary. That's pretty high. Don't play favorites. You're just the acting

director. You don't want to stir up trouble with the staff," Josep warned.

"| get it. I'll think about it," Stellan said.

"Good," Josep smiled.

Stellan saw Josep out, while Alaric was still snoozing.

She stayed by his side, gently wiping his face with a warm towel. Her phone buzzed, and she quickly silenced it.

It was Tommy calling.

"Ms. Storm, there are a ton of reporters outside the company again. We can't shake them this time. Mr. Nash is

at the entertainment center and isn't picking up. What should we do? Should we get Mr. Knight to cover?"

Tommy asked. Stellan glanced at the sleeping Alaric, feeling bad for him. There was no way he could go to the

company today.

"I'll handle it," Stellan said. The reporters were really there for her anyway.

She put down the phone and whispered to Alaric, "I'm heading to the company. I'll be back before you wake up."

With that, Stellan grabbed her car keys and dashed out.
