Chapter 212
Nathan coughed lightly a few times.
It was clear that he was suppressing himself, not wanting his cough to disturb Katniss.
If he could cough freely, it would help clear the congestion in his body, which wouldn't be a bad thing. But suppressing it like Nathan did could have the opposite effect.
In the past, Katniss would have reminded him, but now she couldn't care less.
Nathan coughed for a while, then showed a helpless smile, "I just came to see you. Now that I see you're okay, I feel relieved."
Nathan must have taken the wrong medicine.
However, he pulled this trick last time too. Afterwards, he didn't do much.
Compared to the other troublemakers in the Manners family, Nathan was quiet and silent, and indeed had the least conflict with her.
But it might also be because of his health.
People like Clara and Simon, who are openly bad, can be guarded against. But those like Dylan and Nathan, who might play tricks in the dark, are more troublesome.
Katniss wouldn't be fooled by Nathan's words, "You guys can't use force, so you sent you to play weak? I'm telling you, it's useless. If it weren't for our luck, or Simon being too stupid, I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you."
Nathan was silent for a moment, then sighed slightly, "I know, we've hurt you deeply in the past. So, you don't trust my intentions. I can't control others, but Katniss, I genuinely want the best for you. I owe you an apology."
Is he acting now?
Katniss was momentarily speechless, staring at Nathan with a complex look.
In her past life, she was gentle and hardworking, but ended up in a miserable situation.
In this life, from the moment she came back, she didn't want to wrong herself, saying what she wanted to say, cursing when she wanted to curse, not caring about these people.
Now, with Nathan's attitude.
It made her feel that if she cursed him out, she would seem like a shrew.
Katniss didn't speak for a moment.
Nathan looked deeply at Katniss, "I apologize to you. I blindly believed Clara before, but now I see clearly. Katniss, seeing you living like this now, I am genuinely happy for you."
"You don't need to be so hypocritical now." Katniss's face turned slightly cold, she really wasn't good at speaking warmly to the Manners family, "Don't apologize, it's useless. If it had been earlier, maybe it would have been different. But the harm is done, it's too late."
It's not like she has to accept his apology.
Nathan smiled, slowly stood up, "I know. I didn't expect you to forgive me, I just wanted to tell you, if you need my help with anything, you can come to me."
Katniss sneered, "Don't say such hypocritical polite words. Don't fool yourself, if I asked you to help me deal with the Manners family, would you?"
Nathan was silent.
He sighed, "I understand."
A look of resignation.
Katniss felt a bit annoyed.
Nathan suddenly becoming like this, seemingly reasonable, made her very uncomfortable.
Watching him walk out of the inner room, then to the outer room, Katniss was really surprised.
Could Nathan really have come to see her?
Or did he know that pleading was useless, so he deliberately said such ambiguous words?
Nathan's behavior left Katniss puzzled.
At this moment, Katniss heard a noise outside the door.noveldrama
Conrad ran out to check.
"Mrs. Hamilton, that man fainted."
"What?" Katniss jumped out of bed, ran to the door, and saw Nathan lying on the ground, lips pale and face blue.
Conrad ran to call the doctor and nurse.
This was the high-end ward area, with few people coming and going. The doctors were aware of each patient's condition, and emergencies were rare, so it would take a while for anyone to notice.

Katniss bit her lip, squatted down, and checked his pulse.
Nathan's pulse was weak and floating, his heart and lungs were not strong.
Compared to before she left home, Nathan's health had deteriorated several times.
But this was not surprising, her care before was not superficial, she had researched various remedies day and night, trying every way to nourish Nathan's body.
After all, someone like Nathan, generally speaking, couldn't handle strong supplements. Forcing strong supplements would only backfire.
Medical staff arrived with a stretcher, taking Nathan for emergency treatment.
Although his health was poor, Nathan was not in immediate danger, and Katniss didn't want to meddle, so she went back inside to continue watching her sunset. However, Nathan's words still affected her mood.
Although she constantly warned herself not to be overly sympathetic, would Nathan die without her intervention?
Nathan's health deteriorated so quickly, the Manners family was so wealthy, but they didn't seem to care much about Nathan's well-being?
In the past, Nathan always felt sorry for himself, thinking he was a burden. Later, with Katniss's care and companionship, he slowly got better and regained his confidence. But her sincere heart was misplaced.
Thinking of this, Katniss became clear-headed again.
She knocked on her head, "Katniss, feeling sorry for the Manners family is the beginning of bad luck!"
So, she had to stick to her stance. Katniss stood up, went back to the ward, and closed the door.
Nathan fainting and being taken for emergency treatment alarmed the Manners family. This was really one wave after another.
Elodie felt like she was about to collapse, but at this most difficult time, Oliver was nowhere to be seen.
She was furious, calling Oliver, but either the call was hung up or went unanswered.

"Lucas, where's your dad?" she paced outside the emergency room, "Nathan is like this, and he still doesn't show up? What could be so important?"
Probably with his little mistress.
Thinking of this, Elodie was red with anger. Lucas wanted to say, even if Oliver came, it wouldn't help, but he still had to notify him. So he said, "I'll contact him. But mom, if dad comes, can you not argue?"
He was really annoyed.
The whole family was a mess.
Elodie snorted and said nothing.
The emergency room light went off, the doctor came out, and the Manners family surrounded him.
The doctor said, "His body is very weak now, the condition has started to deteriorate, and it's progressing quite quickly. We've mentioned before, that plan might work, but it also carries great risks, you need to be prepared."
The doctor left after speaking.
Elodie covered her face and cried, "What did I do to deserve this, God, if you have any grievances, take them out on me, don't torment my sons!"
Lucas felt extremely annoyed.
The Manners family was a big family, but now outside the emergency room, it was just him and his mother.
Father Oliver was missing.
Dylan had an important seminar.
Nathan was lying down.
Simon was at the police station.
Clara?
Not even married yet, and her heart and mind were already with the Boleyn family.
He always felt that the Manners family was on the verge of collapse.
