Chapter 1717
The number of wounded was overwhelming, and Molly tirelessly tended to them one by one as the night deepened.
Finally, she stood up straight, rubbing her aching back as her eyes swept over the room.
Most of the wounded had been treated, and some were already fast asleep.
A small smile tugged at the corners of her mouth, and her eyebrows softened.
This was why she had studied medicine in the first place.
"Molly, take a little break. We'll take care of the rest." Logan came over and saw the tiredness on her face.
Before Molly could respond, Selon chimed in, "Yeah, you're pregnant now, and overstretching yourself will harm you and the baby."
Their concern moved Molly.
She smiled and reassured them, "I know. Don't worry about me."
Just then, Sean arrived.
"They're right. It's time for you to rest."
He had overheard their conversation and knew that Molly
didn’t take his words seriously. He put on a straight face and pretended to glare at her with displeasure.
Molly tapped her forehead and scolded herself in a low voice. "See? I make someone upset."
A hint of a smile appeared in Sean's eyes as he looked at her cute look. He pinched the tip of her nose and said," Come with me and take a rest."
"Okay."
Molly obediently followed him back to their temporary residence.
And Sean had some food with her.
During their meal, Molly curiously asked, "What about the four martial artists?" Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
"They've been caught, while Blackrose and others have returned," Sean replied as he handed her more food.
Molly nodded.
"Things have almost come to an end now," Sean continued." This time the base has suffered huge losses. I guess they may still carry out one last large-scale operation."
His expression turned serious as he spoke.
Molly couldn't help but worry. "The Martial Art Union is really hard to crack."
They were tough and annoying.
She immediately lost her appetite.
"Don't worry, we'll all get out of here safely," Sean said in a soothing voice.
Molly frowned. "What about Alkaid? Have you found her?"
"Not yet," Sean admitted.
"She'll be fine, right?" Molly stared at him closely.
"Of course," Sean smiled. "Alkaid is my right-hand subordinate. I know her skills well enough. She will be fine."
He then changed the subject. "Well, let's not talk about that. Finish your food and go take a rest."
Molly didn't pursue the matter. After finishing her food, she went to her room with worries.
She was exhausted.
She lay down on the bed and went out like a light.
Listening to her steady breathing, Sean dropped a kiss on her forehead, held her in his arms, and closed his eyes.
The next morning, before dawn, Sean woke up.
As soon as he stepped out of the room, one of his men came over to report.
"Master, Merak has returned."
Sean immediately asked, "What about Alkaid?"
The messenger hesitated. "She hasn't been found yet."
Sean furrowed his brow. Even Merak failed to find her.
It meant that Alkaid was in a bad situation.
