Dear sweetheart novel (Rayna and Julian) novel Chapter 670

Chapter 670

As Curtis listened to the conversation between Milo and Simone, he could not help asking, "Do you two know this?”

Nudging the glasses on the bridge of his nose, Milo enunciated, “Sir, may I know where the parasite in your wife's body came from? And how long has it been?”

“I'm not quite sure where it came from, but it's been a little over two months,” Curtis admitted.

Upon hearing that. Simone exchanged a glance with Milo beside her. “What's your take on this, Milo?”

“I currently can't tell for sure the type of parasite this is.”

No sooner had Milo said that than Curtis interjected, “It's the blood parasite.”

“Blood parasite?” A touch of shock showed on Simone's face. Bending down, she held Rayna's hand up and studied the emerald bracelet on her wrist. “The Burke family.”

The instant Curtis heard her remark, he swiftly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, urging, “What did you just say? Repeat it.”

“The emerald bracelet on your wife's wrist is the Burke family's heirloom. That being said, this isn't the only bracelet. All descendants of the Burke family have one each,” Simone elaborated. Then, she ventured, “Is your wife a descendant of the Burke family?”

Dipping his eyes, Curtis glanced at the emerald bracelet on Rayna's wrist. “No. I've never seen my wife wear this bracelet, and she didn't bring any jewelry along when we came here. As such, I don't think it's hers.”

“If so, she likely bumped into someone from the Burke family. But they generally won't voluntarily give their emerald bracelets to someone else unless that person is exceedingly important.” Simone tucked Rayna's hand back under the covers before turning to Milo. “What do you think. Milo?”

“I'm afraid we can't admit your wife to our hospital in her present condition. You've got to find a hospital with available beds first, Mi; Faymon.” After saying that, Milo took a pen and paper out of his pocket. He jotted down two phone numbers before handing the paper to Curtis. “Here's Simone and my contact details. If you still wish to contact us when we've wrapped things up here, you may reach us at these two phone numbers.”

Curtis extended his arm to accept it, then scanned his eyes over the names and numbers on it. “Milo Galopin... Harvey Galopin...”

“May I know if you're acquainted with Harvey Galopin?” he asked. Harvey's suggestion that he bring Rayna to Shvomhid Mountain and the subsequent events flashed across his mind. All that inevitably aroused his suspicion that the doctor he hired from abroad had long since known about the parasite in Rayna.

“Harvey?” Milo was stunned for a moment before the comers of his mouth quirked upward by a fraction. “You've seen him before, Mr. Faymon?”

“Yes. He's a doctor I hired from abroad to treat my wife's eye condition,” Curtis answered honestly despite only meeting the duo for the first time.

Milo mulled it over in his mind for some time before disclosing, “He had a twin brother. I reckon the man you saw’ was most probably his elder brother. The elderly traditional medicine practitioner specialized in medicinal herbs. He did a lot of research in that field and loved cultivating medicinal herbs. His brother, whom you likely saw; specializes in chemical research.”

After glancing at the text message he had just received a moment ago. Robin stepped forward and reported. “Mr. Faymon. our men made a trip back to the mansion earlier and verified that they indeed came across a ton of research equipment and instillments in the living room. That man specializing in chemistry is dead from a bullet to the head. It was the doing of the man we met in the courtyard earlier.”

Then, he added. “They found a small cage under the couch in the living room containing a tiny animal resembling a cat inside. Since they had no idea wdiat it was, they didn't dare to touch it.”

As he spoke, he showed Curtis the photos their men had sent to his phone. Curtis took a brief look before holding the phone out to Milo. “Have a look, Dr. Galopin.”

Milo had not done much research on animals, so he could not figure out wdiat it was even after scrutinizing the pictures for a long time. “You can show7 it to Simone when she returns. She likes to tinker with peculiar things.”

Just as his w7ords rang out, the door to the w7ard was swung open forcefully, and Simone sprinted into the room while panting. She handed Curtis a pouch and glass bottle, explaining, “This pouch contains dried medicinal herbs that have a calming effect on the parasite. As for the pills in this bottle, give her one every three days. They can gradually remove the smell of serendipity gl ass on her. This medicine is handmade: I previously used it to have better sleep. I'll have my friend make some more later.” As she spoke, she handed a note to him. “This is my friend's address. This medicine can only be retrieved in person and can't be mailed.”

Curtis reached out a hand and took it. “Thank you.”

At that precise moment, a series of knocks sounded on the door, followed by a nurse's holler. “Dr. Galopin. Simone, the head of the department is looking for you both. Hurry up and go see him.”
