Chapter 2864
“I’ve cracked the code…! Remember how you became slightly dependent on Jenna back when you first received her blood? Well, though you started healing even faster when you got Xavia’s blood, you soon left to search for Fabiola, and…”
“…Since Xav’s blood healed me even more, my body is more dependent on her?” concluded Zivon who now had a raised brow.
“Bingo! Remember, you weren’t fully healed yet at the time, so when you suddenly had to part ways with Xavia for so long, your body began showing negative side effects just so that you would return to her side! It’s the reason why you’re healing so quickly now that you two are together again!”
“…Long story short, I can’t leave Xav’s side for the time being? Actually, hold on, don’t you think that proposal is rather ridiculous?” replied Zivon with a frown.
“How so? All the evidence is there, and remember, Fiona’s concoction was extremely unpredictable, so this outcome shouldn’t be too hard to believe.”
Though speechless, Zivon had to admit that there was truth to that statement… Maybe he could run a little experiment to test the legitimacy of all this…
After sharing the idea with Zayne, the doctor eventually replied, “…Alright, but… I’m following you around the next two days just in case something happens. I really don’t trust that dead bitch’s work…”
“Deal.”
After leaving a message for Xavia, he left to meet up with Ian and his brothers early the next morning… Naturally, they were irked to see him.
“…Have you forgotten our deal?”
“First of all, I’m healing, and besides, Zayne is with me, so there shouldn’t be a problem. Secondly, the sooner we make progress, the better.”
Having no way to refute that, James helplessly replied, “…Long story short, we’ve already scanned through most of the country… and honestly, we’re already planning to look abroad as well. We’ve even gotten Ellen’s help. You know how large her network is back in her country.”
Displeased to hear that, it took Zivon a while to say, “…I think we should continue trying a bit harder within the country first. If we have any suspects, interrogate them. And interrogate their extended family as well. We leave no stone unturned!”
“…And if it still leads to nothing?”
“We’re in a desperate situation… so desperate measures need to be taken.”
After exchanging glances with his brothers, Ian finally replied, “…Fine. We’ll do as you say!”
With that, the brothers quickly got to work. Zivon himself remained at the base to scan through the records of the potential suspects… and since his health had been relatively normal up to this point, Zayne found himself slowly dozing off…
However, it was in the dead of night when he suddenly jolted awake from a loud thud… and upon looking in Zivon’s direction, he was shocked to see that the man had collapsed! What on earth had happened?!
