Chapter 1054
Elliot asked, “Can you cure Nana’s bipolar disorder?”
Yosef replied, “There are ways, but bipolar disorder is not easy to treat, though not Impossible. I’ll need to tailor a medication regimen suitable for Sheena’s form. With luck, she should be able to recover within six months.‘
Hearing the possibility of recovery, Elliot somewhat relaxed.
“Okay, let’s draft a treatment plan as soon as possible. When Nana has another episode, I’ll quietly bring her in for treatment.”
Yosef caught onto the keyword. “Quietly? Elliot, are you planning to hide this from
Sheena and quietly treat her?”
Elliot sighed, lowering his gaze.
“Nana is stubborn. If she knew she had bipolar disorder, a mental illness that could harm others, she’d be very upset. I know her. She might take extreme measures for the sake of her loved ones. So, for now, I’ll try to keep it from her. We’ll address other
issues as they arise.”
With that understanding, Yosef did not press further. He prescribed Sheena some simple medications to soothe her nerves and boost her resistance.
The infusion took a full two and a half hours.
Elliot waited by the side, applying an ice pack to his face.
They worked in the lab until late into the night, finally wrapping up Sheena’s affairs.
Elliot drove back to E&S Haven with Sheena, who was still unconscious.
After a night of hard work and running around, they could finally rest.
He held Sheena close and fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion.
Sheena slept until noon the next day, awakened by a call from her assistant.
“Ms. Lawson, the project manager from Dorvell Corporation will be here this afternoon to sign the contract. It’s almost 1 p.m. Are you coming in today?”
Almost 1 p.m.?
The mention of the contract signing brought her thoughts into focus.
“Okay, I got it. I’ll be there soon.
After hanging up the phone, she attempted to sit up but was hit by a splitting headache, especially at the back of her head.
The pain left her weak, and as she tried to sit up, her body involuntarily leaned
backward.
However, instead of hitting the headboard, she landed in a sturdy and comforting
embrace.
Sheena knew well who was behind her.
“Honey, did you turn off my alarm clock? Otherwise, how could I sleep until this hour?
“1
“You seemed tired these past few days, and I just wanted you to have a good rest. If your headache persists, you should rest more. I can postpone the contract signing with Dorvell Corporation for you.”
“No. We’ve postponed the contract signing for so long because of previous issues. Delaying it further might cause complications. My health is almost back to normal, Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
so it’s better to handle these matters sooner rather than later.”
Elliot continued hugging her, showing no intention of letting go.
“But, Nana, you have a headache.”
Sheena weakly opened her eyes. “It might be due to jet lag after returning home. Could you get me some medicine? That should help.”
“But you might get dependent on the medicine. Let me give you a massage to
soothe your nerves instead.”
Using his slender fingertips, he gently pressed on her temples, massaging her scalp
to alleviate the tension caused by the pain.
Sheena did not object, enjoying his service.
“It’s strange. My head injury at the back seemed to have healed almost completely, but I woke up this morning feeling the pain again.”
Elliot’s fingers paused for a moment, a hint of guilt flashing in his dark eyes.
“Maybe… it’s just a stiff neck. Let me massage it for you.”
Sheena nestled into his embrace, allowing him to continue.
Elliot was always skilled at it, and after a few minutes of massage, Sheena felt a
slight relief in her headache.
As her thoughts slowly returned, she suddenly remembered something.
“Honey, why don’t I remember how I got back last night?”
She had absolutely no recollection, and she had not even had anything to drink.
How could it feel like a blackout?
