Chapter 56

"Then what if the medicine is not able to fight the poison in Alex's body, Grandma?" Leana asked in an anxious tone.

"Then Alex will likely fall into a coma. Although life is not threatened, Alex loses consciousness. Honestly, Alex's current condition is very confusing. Because I haven't encountered such a poison." Obviously Elise is outspoken because for now many conditions and knowledge about health that she knows cannot be used.

He had a lot of experience and knowledge but none of that could explain the current state of affairs such as the appearance of zombies, zombie beasts, mutated beasts, and mutated humans. Not knowing how this all came about, they also did not know of a cure to treat all of this.

As Alex is currently facing. Elise is confused because the medical science that she knows is the person who was bitten by a snake must be treated as soon as possible so as not to be fatal. There was a snake bite that was fatal due to the deadly poison.

But there are also snake bites that only hurt the skin and experience swelling but after treatment will soon heal. And there are also those who after being bitten after some time will improve on their own because the snake is not poisonous.

As for the bite by a poisonous snake after being given direct treatment, treated quickly, and given medication then the person who is bitten can immediately recover no event of the person experiencing loss of consciousness like Alex.

And for the person who was late in the favor and not directly given anti-venom drugs, the person would instantly die from the powerful snake venom. Elise has never encountered a situation like Alex who has been treated quickly but her consciousness is gone.

Therefore also Elise could not tell her family how to treat Alex. Not that he had no intention of treating his granddaughter-in-law just that he didn't know how because the current situation was very strange for Elise.

Hearing her grandmother's explanation and recognition of Alex's current state that confuses Leana can only follow her advice to try to give anti-poison drugs back after it monitors Alex's condition again.

For Marie who saw her only son and the only family she had was injured and in a coma at this time. Marie felt her world crumble in the blink of an eye, Marie became perplexed at not knowing what to do.

She can accept everything, she can accept the world that has changed, she can accept a human that turns into a zombie, she can accept her husband who she loves so much leaving her for good, he could also accept being dumped by his own parents.

But the only thing she couldn't accept was the loss of a hard-earned child she had borne and raised alone since her husband left her for good. He never gave up on his life no matter what happened to him.

But if in this life he also has to lose the meaning for him to live that is his only son then he will choose to give up his life after his husband and also his own son. Because he thinks this world without his son is meaningless.

Marie therefore decided she would do anything for her son as long as his son Alex was still breathing she would not give up on healing him. But if his son no longer breathes then he will soon overtake his son without hesitation.

Marie was swept away in her own thoughts while hugging Alex in her arms. Marie was therefore unaware of the arrival of her daughter-in-law. Leana who was sitting next to Marie saw her husband's face that was still pale without realizing Leana immediately cried.

"I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise to accompany and protect her no matter what! I should've banned Alex from facing the snake. I should have banned him from the beginning from coming here." Leana blames herself for not looking after her husband.

Marie who heard Leana's words just looked at her didn't say anything. Leana who saw her silent mother-in-law also felt more guilty. Leana suspects Marie must be disappointed in her for not protecting Alex.

"My mom let my mom down, if you want to scold me or hit me I don't mind her or fight her. Therefore you can do anything to me but I beg you not to be like this.If you also want me to leave Alex I am also okay. Just please let me stay with him now that Alex has recovered I promise to leave Alex." Leana said in a sad tone.

Hearing Leana's words like that finally made Marie unwillingly answer Leana, "Mama does not blame anyone. You can only blame yourself for having bad luck. You don't have to blame yourself for what happened. Because you know what's coming here is Alex. You don't have to leave Alex. For Alex you are everything. For Alex you are his life and his world. And for me, Alex is everything in my life."

Leana who heard Marie's answer could only be silent but still look toward Alex and Marie. And prayed inwardly to ask that Alex could be conscious and healed. Whatever happens to Alex he'll take it.

...*****...

As Marie and Leana guard Alex, Joe's men face a mutated snake. They were furious that the mutated snake had injured Big Brother, Leader, and also the person they respected and cared about most, Alex.

Therefore Joe's people will try and do anything to be able to kill the mutated snake in front of them. For the Leana family who saw Joe's rather alarming situation also became anxious.

Because the family knows Leana and Alex are fine for now. And they must also kill the snake immediately in order to find a safer place to spend the night, deciding to join the fight against the mutated snake.

After a family discussion decides to send David, Dave, and Gery to help Joe's people deal with a mutated snake. Luke and the women in the family will remain where they are while monitoring the situation in front of him.
