The Untouchable Ex Wife by Mizuki Sei

Chapter 1430
Santiago felt like Xavier was the most opinionated and arrogant man he had ever met. "Have you ever asked Lei what she
wants? Who is the outsider here, you or me?" He approached Xavier angrily, wanting to take Leia from him.
At that moment, Leia was feeling weak, and her lips were pale. She looked at them and groaned, "Can you two stop fighting? I'm
dying here! Hurry up... and get me to the hospital!" Too weak to hold on, she blacked out and lost consciousness.
When Leia woke up, she found herself lying on a hospital bed. Both Xavier and Santiago were sitting in front of her bed, and she
could feel that the atmosphere between them was tense. However, the most important thing was that she was alive.
"Lei, you're awake! Are you thirsty? I'll get you some water." When Santiago saw Leia open her eyes, his eyes lit up.
"Of course she's thirsty, she's been in a coma for two days! If you didn't talk so much, she'd be drinking water by now," Xavier
snapped as he handed Leia a cup of warm water.
Leia wanted to reach out and take the cup, but found that she couldn't move her right hand. She looked at her hand in horror,
realizing she couldn't feel it. "My... My hand..." Numerous possibilities dawned on her, and her face went pale. Did the venom
enter her bones and ruin her hand? Would it need to be amputated?
"Don't worry, your hand is okay. The numbness hasn't gone away because there's still venom in you," Santiago comforted Leia
gently.
"Oh, thank goodness... I was so scared." Leia breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that she could keep her hand.
Xavier carefully held the cup of water to Leia's lips for her to drink, and casually added, "Your hand could still be amputated if the
venom isn't out of your system in twenty- four hours, or if the venom enters your nervous system."
"Pfft!" Leia spat the water out and gasped, "What... What did you say?" She stared at Xavier with wide eyes. She’d rather die
than have her hand amputated!
"Didn't I make myself clear? You need to take care of yourself because there's still venom in your body." Xavier put the cup down
and patted her head. He then huffed and scolded her, "You even cared so much about that moonstone. Don't be so careless next
time."

People said it was tiring to take care of children but Xavier felt that it was more tiring to take care of Leia after that diving trip. He
couldn't keep an eye on her at all, and she didn't even have the sense to keep her distance from the corals that could be housing
poisonous creatures. Of course, she would be bitten by the sea snake.
"Oh yeah, where's my moonstone? I want to give it to Ren. Did you take my moonstone?" Leia asked anxiously, worried her
efforts would have gone to waste.
Santiago pointed at a small box on the bedside cabinet and said dotingly, "Don't worry, I put it away for you. Your hand will be
okay after the snake venom subsides; you'll be fine."
Leia's condition wasn't very serious because she was rushed to the hospital in time, and most of the venom in her body had
already dissipated. There was only a small amount left around the bite mark, and it would only take a one-hour surgery to get rid
of the venom. On the bright side, she wouldn't have to amputate her hand.
Leia felt slightly calmer after hearing Santiago's words." Ugh... When is the surgery? I want to call Ren."
