The Transmigrated Novelist

Chapter 215 - 215: Roy’s Condition

"He is out of danger for his life, but unfortunately he isn't in a good state either. The poison had actually entered his heart, and his head, so he is in an unconscious state without much hope of waking up!

While he is still alive, that is only due to a precious treasure that Young Master Kayden was willing to use for him, called the 'Leaf of Life'!

I am afraid that there isn't much hope of him ever waking up and functioning properly as before!"

At first, it looked like this was going to be a piece of good news. After all, Roy was out of danger for his life, but the more she heard the more desperate and bleak things became.

Alma couldn't believe the words she heard, as she started getting angrier and outraged the more she heard, as she grabbed the guy's collar and started screaming,

"You are lying! This can't be happening! No, it's impossible for this to happen! You are lying~!"

"What would I win from lying to you! Uneducated brat, if you think that I am lying to you just take him wherever you want and bring whomever you want to check him!

If they say even a word different from what I have said, then I am willing to throw away my profession and lick their shoes!

I treated him only for Young Master Kayden's sake. If it weren't for him I would have slapped and killed you already!"

"Master Grey please don't take this personally, my little sister is just devastated by your words, and she doesn't mean what she said!

Please for my sake forget this happened!"

"Hmph~! If it weren't for you Young Master Kayden this old man would have already dealt with her! Still, for your sake, I am willing to forget this happened. Hmph~!"

"You too little sister Alma, please refrain yourself a bit! I know it's extremely difficult, but you shouldn't lose yourself like that!

Master Grey is a truly respected doctor and alchemist that has even worked in the Royal Palace. If it weren't for some little favor he owes me, he would have never appeared here!"

Hearing someone blow his horn the doctor was certainly extremely happy, but at the same time, he was extremely angry and enraged with Alma for treating him like that.

On the other hand, Alma seemed to have lost her last strand of conscience as she started crying for a moment, and then suddenly fainted.

"Little sister…

Little…"

Mr. Knight calling here were the last words she actually heard before everything turned into complete darkness.

When she woke up she found herself in a large king-size bed, with that previous Master doctor and alchemist of earlier checking her body, and a crowd of people around her including her father.

Each and every one of the people present were looking at her with a different expression, some were looking at her with pity, some with rage, some with envy, and some with fake love and care.

She felt extremely uncomfortable for some reason! In her unconscious state she hadn't been able to feel a thing, so being faced with such a situation the moment she woke up was certainly a big blow to her.

"Little sister Alma, how are you!? How are you feeling?"

Certainly, the first voice to actually face her after opening her eyes was none other than Mr. Knight, who had a worried expression on his face.

"I-I am fine! Wha-What happened!? Whe-Where is my husband?"

Mr. Knight's face seemed to fall down the moment he heard those words, as he expected a different situation. But even when she woke up after fainting the first thing she asked was about that man.

That made him extremely angry and irritated inside, for a moment he even felt that perhaps it would be better to ra*pe and kill this bi*tch that didn't seem to see right with her blind eyes.

"This…"

"Hmph~! That bastard is in an unconscious state with one foot away from his grave! He is most probably never waking up!

My son did so much for you, and yet the first thing you remember is that bastard!?"

"Father please don't say such things!"

Mr. Knight seemed to righteously defend his madam, but willingly or unwillingly he raised his voice a bit over the necessary which made Boris angrier and startled,

"You…, You raised your voice to me for this girl! What is left now is to kill me for her, and she still won't understand what you are doing for her.

You are uselessly wasting your time with her, by now you should have been married and giving me grandchildren.

You even refused Young Lady Aura, Earl Clark's daughter for this woman who doesn't understand a thing of your feelings for her!

Just how much of a blind and stupid son you have grown to be!"

Even though there was a large audience in front of him, Boris seemed unable to control himself anymore as he said those words.

Everyone was quite shocked by what they heard, including the Guild Master and the Elders of the Merchant Guild. While they had doubts of these matters, now they were confirmed.

They didn't know what to think for a few moments, as none of them dared to breathe out loud to become the center of attention.

On the other hand, Alma seemed to be completely shocked and frozen at that moment, as she was trying to make sense of all this.

The truth was that she had always seen Mr. Knight as her brother and nothing more from the beginning.

To put the matter in simpler terms, Mr. Knight had been brother-zoned since they were little kids running around.

Surely Alma had some idea about Mr. Knight's feelings after talking to Roy. But she thought that he was just spouting nonsense.

Remembering about this part, she couldn't help but remember the second part of Roy's evaluation for this Mr. Knight.

That he was actually a hypocrite and two-faced man that would do anything to reach his goals, and that he was their greatest enemy ahead.

Right now, she couldn't help but doubt if what Roy said was the truth. Even now she was praying and wishing for it to be a big lie or nonsense, but she still couldn't help but doubt.

Seeing Alma's lost and frozen face, Boris became even angrier as this wasn't the result he had expected. This little bi*tch didn't seem to be giving in, even after all that he said.

He almost spat out blood when he heard Alma's next words,

"I want to stay alone for now, please arrange for my husband's body and bring him to my courtyard. I will personally take care of him from now on!"

"Little sister Alma you…"

"Don't get me wrong, I consider myself his wife, and responsible for what happened to him, so I will personally take care of him!"

"This… Sigh~! All right, I will arrange for this immediately!"

Mr. Knight couldn't help but sigh deeply and emotionally as he seemed to give up from whatever hope he held in his heart.

Alma, on the other hand, tried her best to get up and stand from the bed, as she said,

"I am sorry to have worried everyone, and I am really thankful for your worries, but as you can see I am fine now so you can continue with your business!"

'Tche~! Who does she think she is?'

'Stupid girl~! To think that Young Master Kayden looks so much for her!'

'Blind girl~! She doesn't understand what's good for her!'

As the crowd started dispersing people started whispering to each other. It was clear that the crowd seemed to be united under the same thought, but Alma didn't pay attention to them.

"Little sister Alma, please don't stand up. You are still in no condition to…"

"Don't worry I am perfectly fine! I can't continue to take advantage of your kindness big brother Kayden!"

"You shouldn't worry about that…"

"Furthermore there are people that are clearly uncomfortable with my presence here!"

While she didn't point at anyone saying those words, it was clear that they were directed at Master Boris, whose face went even darker hearing those words.

"Little Alma you…"

Still, despite his condition at that moment, he managed to control himself and blurt those words with a slightly wronged voice, but was stopped midway from Alma's clear sounding voice,

"I understand Uncle Boris, you are just a bit agitated with everything that happened, and big brother Kayden risking his life to save me and Roy!

You don't have to explain yourself!

But I want to tell you that I don't plan on becoming a hurdle to you or your family, as big brother Kayden is free to marry Young Lady Aura if he wishes.

I will make this clear once and for all, I have no intention of looking at him, or any other man for that matter, as long as my husband breathes.

Until his last breath, I will live and breathe as his wife!"

Those words clearly startled and shocked whoever was remaining in that room, as Alma turned around towards the door and walked outside without even looking at her own father.

There was confidence and solemnity in her words, and she seemed to clearly do what she said.

"Sigh~! She is so stubborn just like her mother! Please forgive her for any offense Boris, she is truly hasty and stupid sometimes!"

Seeing how the events folded her father, the Guild Master could only sigh emotionally, as he too left the place after saying a few words.

Soon the place was empty of any foreigner, as Mr. Knight…
