An hour later, Dahlia changed her card and called Stella.
The other party was just in a state of no answer all the time.
I dialed five times in a row, and it wasn't until the sixth call that the phone was answered.
Dahlia was furious and shouted, "Why didn't you answer the phone? Do you want your mom to die quickly?"
Stella pretended to be very scared, "I didn't hear anything."
Dahlia angrily grounded her teeth and said, "I left a blue box in the corner of the utility room. It contained half of the antidote. Go and get it for your mother to take. This way, it could prolong her life."
Stella busily said she knew and then proceeded to do as instructed by the other party.
Half an hour later, Dahlia called again to ask about Stella's condition.
When he learned that the old man's condition had indeed improved, he began to manipulate Stella. "Taking only half of the antidote will accelerate the process of death. In four hours, your m
Zoey examined Carolyn and found that her eyes had a reaction to light.She felt a sense of joy in her heart, Carolyn was about to wake up.She held the girl's hand and said, "Carolyn, come on! You can do it!"Afterwards, she checked on Ariella and her grandmother, expecting that both of them would wake up within three days.She administered injections to several people one by one before leaving the hospital.Just as I walked out of the hospital entrance, I saw a black Bentley parked below the steps.The driver's cabin door opened, and Troy quickly got out of the car, walked around the back of the car, and opened the rear door. He nodded slightly and said, "Madam."Zoey was surprised because Russell said he would wait for her at home, but he unexpectedly came to pick her up."Troy worked hard," she laughed.Troy nodded slightly, "It was not hard, it was expected."Zoey got into the car and the back door was closed.
In the hospital ICU.After seeing Carolyn, Zoey conducted a series of examinations on her to confirm that she could be transferred to a regular ward.Waking up, Carolyn looked a bit confused, which worried Braylen and Aubrie.Aubrie pulled Zoey aside outside the ward and whispered, "Zoey, why do I feel like Carolyn wasn't quite right?"Zoey looked through the small window on the door of the hospital room and saw Carolyn leaning against the head of the bed. "Aunt-in-law, Carolyn might have lost her memory. She can't remember what happened to her, so let's not make her think about it for now.""Will she permanently lose her memory?"Zoey shook her head, "This cannot be determined, we can only take it one step at a time."Aubrie sighed lightly and said, "Even if she lost her memory, it doesn't matter. What's important is that she is still alive, living well and safe."Zoey shook her hand and said, "Don't worry, besides amnesia, Ca
The first thing Carolyn did when she got home was to look for the packaging box and instruction manual of the robot dog.When she took a photo of the serial number to send it to Carsen, a string of unfamiliar numbers came in.Because she was kidnapped, her phone was smashed and lost by the kidnappers. All the contact information was stored in the phone, so she got a new phone and only had a few people's numbers in it.After she picked up, she said hello.A gentle female voice sounded, "Carolyn, it's Lola. Are you at home?"Carolyn recognized the voice as Lola's, but she pretended not to have heard, "Lola?""I was Lola, you know! We used to be good, it seems like you forgot about me."Carolyn sighed, "I'm sorry, I don't remember many people. So, does Lola have something to tell me?"Lola chuckled lightly and said, "Carsen asked you to hand over the packaging box and instruction manual to me, and I will take them home."Ca
"It didn't take long, mainly because I was afraid your acting skills were too poor and would reveal flaws," Royce said, as he scratched his nose bone, somewhat unreasonably.Carsen chuckled, "I wasn't good at acting, but what about Madeleine? She's a film queen!"Brodie said, "If Madeleine knew that Zoey is our biological sister, no movie star could suppress this kind of joy. The light in her eyes couldn't be hidden."Carsen's mouth twitched, anyway you guys were right!Royce squinted his eyes, "After listening to this recording, we know that Lola had already recognized the Harmon family, but she was worried about her own position, so she kept it a secret. We have been searching for Lola's relatives for years without success, but it turns out that the other party was already prepared, so we couldn't find them at all. That's also the reason why we couldn't find Zoey.""Since Lola and Ariana are sisters, there is no such thing as Lola being kidnapped
After seeing off the Keller family, it was already noon.Zoey followed Leanna back to the office and shared the Spicy Prawn and milk tea that Leanna had ordered.The two of them sat on the carpet beside the coffee table, rolled up their sweater sleeves, and started peeling shrimp.Leanna took a sip of her finger and said, "The Keller family is really nice, it seems like they genuinely like you. Zoey, you didn't have a good time with the Harmon family before. Honestly, are you sad about Ariana's death and Dahlia being captured?"Zoey paused her hand peeling the shrimp.Feeling sad?As soon as she remembered her tragic death in her previous life and how Russell killed himself for her, she hated him so much that she gritted her teeth. How could she possibly be sad?As for Dahlia, she longed for motherly love, but she had never experienced it, so she was extremely disappointed.Could Dahlia not know that Ariana wanted her heart? Co
Zoey and Russell extinguished the fire and sat on the swing in the yard, waiting for Leanna and Toby.Zoey looked up at the night sky, gripping the swing ropes with both hands, and pushed off the ground with her feet, slowly swaying back and forth."When I was a child, I always envied Ariana. She had things that I didn't have, she could play things that I couldn't play. I could only stand aside and watch her count rows of dolls. It wasn't until my grandfather came that I got my first doll. That doll was quite ugly, but I thought no one would like it or choose it, so I brought it home. That night, I slept hugging the doll. We were like two lonely souls huddling together for warmth. The next day, I went to kindergarten, while Ariana got sick and stayed home to recover. When I came back home, I found that the doll had one eye missing, one leg broken, and its face was smeared with eyeshadow, making it even uglier."The exhaled white mist blurred Zoey's face, but one
The silver moonlight spilled over the courtyard, and the plane tree leaves, and lawn were covered with a thin layer of snow, giving it a somewhat desolate appearance.Russell, Zoey, Toby, and Leanna sat around the fireplace, eating and drinking while chatting and laughing, oblivious to the cold.Unconsciously, it became late into the night, and Leanna was intoxicated.She sniffed and looked at Russell with red eyes, "You, treat Zoey well! She is such a good girl, but she has such a difficult family. I feel sorry for her! What else does she have to do to earn even a little bit of care from her family? Zoey is the best girl in the world, I come second! Hahaha..."Zoey raised her hand to her forehead, knowing that Leanna was completely drunk with her crying and laughing.She said to Toby, "Leanna has a room here, in the second room on the right side of the second floor, facing south. You help her back to the room. Russell and I will tidy up here."
After all, Zoey felt disgusted by Lola's closeness to her because she had suspicions about her.Yes, it was a kind of disgust.Zoey discreetly pulled her arm out as she watched Lola approach, saying, "Take a look at your dress."Lola also noticed Zoey's indifference, which increased her resentment a little more.She just managed her facial expression well, and smiled with a raised lip, "Okay."Zoey opened the dedicated clothing box and took out a folding rack from inside. She assembled the makeshift clothes hanger by folding and pulling it once.At that moment, Jaelyn and Madeleine helped Tabitha downstairs.Tabitha smiled kindly and said, "I was just talking with Jaelyn and Madeleine about what you like, thinking about what to give you at the family reunion party. I didn't expect you to arrive so soon."Zoey smiled, "I just finished making the dresses. I'll give them to you to try on. There are still three days until the banqu
After Russell and Zoey woke up, they prepared to bid farewell to the people in the village and go back to Oakhedge Hospital to visit Lilliana.They simply did not see the figures of Roderick and Enzo.Maliyah handed a note to Zoey.Zoey saw the four words written above, "Zoey's Turn."She opened it and saw that it was written by Roderick.It was written above that he and Enzo went to search for the Thousand Poison Spirit Grass because Russell's illness could not relapse again, otherwise each time would be more severe.Zoey clenched the note tightly, pursing her lips.Russell's illness was indeed urgent, and as soon as they returned to Woodmerrow, she prepared to research the antidote.The two masters treated her very well, treating her like their own granddaughter.In the future, she will definitely take good care of them.Russell walked over and asked, "Have the two masters left?"Zoey nodded lightly, "I l
Zoey glared at him and said, "I'll take another look at how your wound is healing. The lighting wasn't very good earlier."Russell leaned back, with his hands propped on the bed, and raised an eyebrow at her, "You helped me undress."Zoey pursed her lips, bent down, and then grabbed the edge of the man's T-shirt with both hands and rolled it up.Suddenly, Russell grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms, sitting her on his lap.The man's warm breath sprayed against her ear. His fingers caressed her slender fingertips. "Tell me, after not seeing each other for a week, do you miss me?"Zoey wrapped her hands around the man's neck, but kept a slight distance between their bodies, afraid of touching his wound. "To be honest?""Um.""I didn't think.""Really?" Russell pinched her chin and turned it towards himself. "I don't believe it."Zoey pursed her lips and smiled, her alluring red lips making men envious.Rus
Russell's eyes were as deep as the Night Guild, as he pondered over all that had happened.He murmured, "Look up Nathalie, there might be some new discoveries. Of course, the fact that her information has been completely erased also raises some questions. What can be proven now is that the leader of the mysterious organization we were discussing earlier should indeed be the person who built the laboratory."It is reasonable to say that this conjecture is plausible.Zoey glanced at the remains on the ground and said, "I had planned to use Natalie to lure out the person behind the scenes, but I didn't expect them to be well-prepared and cut off all ties. Now, our leads are gone."Russell brushed off the dust from her body and said, "It's okay, even the cleverest fox reveals its tail at times."He looked at the people of Butteriron Village and said, "I hope that in the future you will be able to coexist peacefully with Esterden Village, otherwise we w
Under the dim yellowish firelight, Zoey's gaze pierced Natalie's eyes like a sharp blade.Natalie's pupils dilated as she did not expect the woman in front of her to associate so many secrets."You..."Zoey's lips curled up, "Actually, you've lived long enough at your age. Even if you don't say it, I would have found out sooner or later. It's just a matter of time.""I said!" Natalie didn't want to die, "I told you everything I know! Forty years ago, I saved a man who was being chased. He made a deal with me, I provided him with Venomous Worm, and he gave me a huge sum of money. But I didn't want the money, I just wanted something that could kill without a trace, because I hated Maliyah that woman, and the whole Esterden Village people, but I only knew how to kill with Venomous Worm, which would be too obvious. After the deal with the man, he provided me with parasites, and I secretly put them in the water of the people in Esterden Village, so that anyone
Hazel's words, Russell and Braeden naturally did not believe.Braeden took out the tracker and found that Troy's location was still in the same place as before.He directly refused Hazel, "We will find them ourselves. You don't need to bother."He took back the tracker and pushed Russell forward.Hazel couldn't believe that they had actually rejected her, and her gaze turned fierce.She snorted coldly, blew a whistle, and over ten people from Blackmere Village appeared in front of Russell and Braeden, blocking their way.Hazel walked up to the two of them with her hands on her hips, raising her chin as if she were a proud little princess."I liked both of you, if you agree to be with me, I won't torment you, otherwise..."Russell spoke up in a low voice, "Otherwise, what?"The man's voice, although lacking warmth, was very magnetic.The moonlight fell on the handsome face of the man, as if it was coated with a lay
While Zoey was performing the special treatment on Natalie, she was also taking her pulse. In fact, she discovered that the discomfort in Natalie's heart was not due to any underlying medical condition.Those symptoms were similar to Russell's symptoms, as if there was a foreign object in the heart, but it wasn't a moving object.She pulled out the silver needle and placed it aside, "Get into position."Natalie turned over and there was a one-centimeter-long scar on her back, although it was thin, it was still noticeable.This confirms Zoey's conjecture, "You have left the village before, haven't you?"Natalie's body stiffened, "No.""Your heart should have undergone surgery."Natalie turned her head to look at her, her eyes filled with disbelief. "What?"Zoey looked calm and determined as she said, "You left the village and underwent surgery."Because clothing cannot be worn during the special treatment, there were only
Although it was a great opportunity, Zoey did not immediately agree.After all, the two villages had a hostile relationship, so if she agreed immediately, it would raise suspicions.She scrutinized the man with a pointed nose and chubby cheeks in front of her, as well as the silver jewelry they had brought. "Take these things back, I won't give her any medical treatment."The man looked hesitant and said, "If you don't go, I won't be able to report back, and I will be punished by the village chief.""Does it concern me? I don't know you, why should I care about your face?" Zoey coldly glared at him."My name is Bruno Kaufman, and I will come back again," the man nodded, carrying two loads of ornaments with him as he left.Roderick and Enzo walked over.Roderick asked, "Why do you think they came?"Enzo clicked his tongue and said, "That must be because my clever apprentice has exceptional medical skills, so the chief of Butteri
Russell silently watched her for a long time. He knew that this journey was very dangerous, but she had to go."I'm sorry, I couldn't accompany you."Zoey raised her hand and gently stroked the man's cheek, "Don't say that. The situation is special, just cooperate with the doctor's treatment. I will come back as soon as possible."She leaned on the sickbed, leaned over and kissed the man's lips, "Wait for me, my dear."Russell fixed his eyes on her and said, "Be careful.""Don't worry."Just as Zoey was about to go downstairs, she was grabbed by the man and pulled back.His generous palm held the back of the girl's head as he kissed her. This kiss contained no desire, as if he wanted to melt her into his own body, never to be separated from her forever.The kiss lasted for a long time before the two of them separated.Russell's voice was hoarse, "Zoey, you must be careful.""I knew."Zoey reluctantly left R
Russell furrowed his brow, the intense pain and nausea making him extremely miserable."Russell, open your mouth."Russell quickly opened his mouth upon hearing the words, and the Golden Worm flew out with a wriggling blood-red worm in its mouth, landing on the disposal plate.The Larvi-worm was transparent, but it turned red after sucking blood, and it writhed in pain.This is where Golden Worm tore apart Larvi-worm, slowly devouring it bit by bit.Meanwhile, in a basement in Woodmerrow.Nathalie, who was bound to the cross, felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if something was gnawing at her heart.Her scar-covered body was oozing cold sweat, and because her mouth was stuffed with a cloth, she could only make whimpering sounds.She struggled desperately, her eyes, nose, and ears all bleeding, even the cloth in her mouth soaked with blood.She began to convulse.At this moment, someone removed the cloth from her mo
