Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 723: Something was wrong.

After a while, he looked up again and said in a cold tone.

-Thank you for these days.

Anna was astonished and said, shaking her head, -You're welcome. But I want to see Serena, may I?

Prince Charming was important, but a good friend was more important.

Anna had always cared more about Serena.

-Let's go.

When Anna was brought to Serena's hospital ward, Chiara was taking care of her. Seeing Anna arrive, Chiara eased her tension a little and said, -Anna, have you solved all the problems in Country X?

-Yes, I have finished them. I heard that Serena has a fever?

When the two spoke to each other, they lowered their voices a lot because they were afraid of waking up Serena. Chiara nodded her head in the affirmative.

-Yes, she has a serious fever. But since she is pregnant and not any medicine can be prescribed, the doctor recommended physical cooling treatment.

Hearing this, Anna cried out in surprise, -Really, she is pregnant?

Clare looked at her with narrowed eyes as if she understood something.

-According to her words, she had heard that Serena was pregnant? Had she? Did she know she was pregnant? -About that, Chiara could not help but frown gratefully.

If Serena knew that she was still walking around after being pregnant, that would be a bad thing.

-This is just my guess because I had a little talk with Serena earlier. We were not sure if she was pregnant, and Serena also thought that after the wedding she would go to the hospital to be checked in case she was pregnant. She didn't think that.

The two remained tacitly silent and did not continue talking.

After dozens of seconds, Anna reached for the towel in Clare's hand and said in a soft voice, "Let me do it. Before, when Serena was sick, I always took care of her. I also know some of her habits.

Of course, Clare observed everything that favored Serena. Very soon she passed the towel to Anna. And from then on, Anna would take care of Serena.

Serena still had a high fever. It was not clear whether the fever was troubling her. From time to time, Serena would utter a few words. But listening to them, it was clear that she was unconscious. Anna could only take care of her by gently comforting her.

During this time, Matthew and the doctor had come a few times.

Until the rest of the night, Serena's fever finally began to subside. Gradually, her breathing also calmed down. Anna stood around the bed, remembering the news she had seen earlier.

It was about the people who had been rescued on the first day, who still had signs of life. And those who had been taken to the hospital had been saved.

However, just like that, the lives that had floated out to sea after a stormy night were gone.

The next day, when the rescue team had swung into action, all that had been rescued were dead bodies.

But Matthew said Cristian had not been found, which meant Cristian was not among the survivors. But where was his body?

Cristian and Serena had struggled to be together. My God, why had he separated them like that?

At this thought, Anna could not stop crying with red eyes.

-Cristian, come back! Come back!

When Anna almost cried out from crying, Serena, who was lying quietly, spoke a word, but said it very softly. Anna could only lie down to listen to her.

After hearing that what Serena said was Cristian's name, Anna began to cry more.

-Don't worry, Serena. I'm sure Cristian doesn't want to see you sad alone. He will come back for sure.

The next day, after breakfast, Serena woke up.

Having had a fever, she still had some side effects. When she woke up, she found that her limbs were soft. In addition, all her muscles ached, she was dizzy, and she struggled to sit up. -Serena, you woke up. I support you.

Anna approached her cordially, supported her and sat on the edge of the bed.

Matteo and Chiara also came when they heard that Serena had recovered.

Supported by Anna, Serena faintly looked up, smiled at Anna and said, "You're back.

Anna was stunned, nodded her head and said, "Yes, I'm back.

-Good.

Her voice was muffled. There was no sound of joy or sadness. It was just very hoarse, as if she had wandered for a long time in the desert without drinking water.

Serena reached for Anna's hand and looked at Matthew.

-Brother, is there any news about Cristian?

The three were silent.

When they woke up, Serena asked about Cristian. At that moment, none of them knew how to answer her.

It was Anna who suddenly reacted and said with a laugh, "Serena, you just woke up. Surely you don't feel uncomfortable. Apart from that, you have been in a coma for so long. I think you are hungry now, do you want to eat rice soup? I have prepared several for you, do you want the savory or the sweet one?

Her cheerful tone and the speed of her speech showed how much Anna wanted to skip this topic.

Listening to her, Clare also reacted and said, "Okay. She is still very weak because she just woke up. Eat something first and put the other things aside.

Serena said nothing.

She looked at the three people in front of her.

Their faces were wicked and there was also seriousness around their eyes. They had obviously said this was to take care of her. If she now investigated the problem further, she would disappoint them. Considering this, Serena could only nod her head softly and answer yes.

Anna's eyes lit up and she asked, "So, do you want sweet or savory?

She replied, "I can have both.

-Well, I'll serve them to you.

Anna immediately got up and immediately brought Serena a sweet rice soup. She sat in front of her with a warm smile and said, "Come, this was your favorite rice soup when you were in Country X. I just tasted it. This store makes it very authentic.

Anna poured some by the spoonful and served it to Serena.

A sweet smell emanated from the rice soup in the air and the atmosphere was full of warmth. Serena should have liked the rice soup, but she had felt no sweet taste when she had eaten it. What she felt was pure bitterness.

But she had continued to eat slowly. Anna poured the rice soup and Serena drank it.

Serena was so calm and obedient that she made the others feel a little scared.

Slowly, Anna began to be afraid and to feel that something was wrong. Serena was too calm and had not refused the rice soup he served her.

She felt that this was not the reaction she was supposed to have.

How was it possible that if Serena had just asked something about Cristian, she had obeyed when Anna had made her eat the rice soup?

When Anna sensed that something was wrong and the speed of serving the rice soup was slowing down, Serena finally reacted.

As if feeling uncomfortable, with a pale face, suddenly Serena bent over with her hands on her stomach, bowed her head and vomited up all the rice soup she had eaten.
