Clara watched Lea lying limp on the patient's bed. Lea's eyes could only glance at the doctor who treated her with a weak gaze. However, the frail patient could only stare for a moment, then her vision blurred. Her head felt incredibly dizzy. She was also struggling to breathe. Between conscious and unconscious, her hand stretched out looking for help.

Clara's chest felt tight. What happened to Lea? Why did she get to the hospital in such a bad condition?

Assisted by a nurse, Clara put on a respirator for Lea. She also gave an injection to Lea to keep her from getting dehydrated. However, it seems that dehydration was not the only cause of her illness. Clara then asked the nurse who was with her to help check her patient's blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

"Blood sugar is fine but the blood pressure is high," replied the nurse, "180/110 …."
