Chapter 725 That Kid Is Injured

Even though Rayna did not completely agree with Cassidy, it was a phenomenon that was indeed present in society nowadays.

Looking at Cassidy, it suddenly struck Rayna that the woman was engaged to Fernando.

Despite that, the couple barely spent any time together. It was baffling to Rayna.

“Is that kid always walking around with that drug?” Rayna asked when her gaze drifted to the red stain on Cassidy's palm.

“Including this time, I've only met her three times in total. That child doesn't usually come out,” Cassidy explained softly.

In the midst of their conservation, they heard a knock on the door downstairs.

Just when Rayna was about to head downstairs, she saw that Curtis was already in the courtyard and had opened the door.

Fernando was outside, carrying the child in his arms.

Rayna could clearly see that the child was injured.

Before Cassidy could refuse, Rayna spoke first. “Curtis, let them in.”

Cassidy turned to look at Rayna with a puzzled expression. When Rayna was about to leave the

balcony, Cassidy grabbed her arm and said, “Belle, we can't let that kid come inside.”

“But she's hurt.” Perhaps because Rayna was also a mother, but she could not bring herself to turn a blind eye to the girl's injuries.

Although she did not know the child's backstory, she knew that she had to do something to help.

“I will ask Fernando to take her to the hospital. There's no need to bring her here.” Cassidy held onto Rayna's arm while she turned toward Curtis and said, “Don't let the child into the house.”

Fernando had already taken a step forward when he heard Cassidy's words. He froze for a moment before looking up at the woman in disbelief.

“Cassidy, Yuna is injured. She won't make it to the hospital in time,” Fernando said. “Can you stop the bleeding for her first? I will take her to the hospital after that. I won't leave her at your place.”

“If it's just about stopping the bleeding, why can't you do it?” Cassidy rejected coldly.

“Cassidy,” Fernando said in a solemn voice.

“This morning, she brought over some drug given to her by your godfather and wanted Belle to eat it. What is your godfather plotting?” Cassidy questioned Fernando.

Fernando was momentarily stunned upon hearing that. Glancing at Yuna, who was lying in his arms, he realized that he had been kept completely in the dark. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

He had assumed that Yuna had done something to anger his godfather and had gotten beaten up as a result. Never would he have guessed the truth.

“You should bring Yuna back.” Cassidy was unrelenting. “You refused to tell me who adopted Yuna when I asked you about it previously. Now, she even brought your godfather's drug over to my place. Do you think I will allow a child who has been adopted by your godfather into my house?”

Rayna stood quietly at one side as she listened to Cassidy.

Things were becoming clearer to Rayna as she started to connect the dots.

Indeed, Fernando's godfather was the biggest problem.

Curtis, who was standing at the door, shared the same sentiments as Rayna.

He cast a glance at Yuna and noticed that her face was as pale as a sheet. Then, he reached out to touch the girl's forehead and realized that it was cold.

“This child...” Curtis looked at Fernando cautiously, but it seemed as if Fernando had not noticed anything amiss and appeared to be genuinely panicking.

“Cassidy, when have you become so cold-hearted?” Fernando did not believe the woman would do nothing and let Yuna die.

“I am cold-hearted. If I had learned to be like this earlier, I wouldn't have ended up all alone.” Cassidy continued saying to Fernando in a cold voice, “Yuna tried to stay by my side previously by pretending to be Yasmin. Do you think I will agree to you bringing her here now? Who knows what you are up to this

time?”

Fernando was at a loss for words. With an awkward expression, he replied, “It's my fault for deceiving you previously, but... Yuna didn't do it intentionally. You were the one who mistook her identity...”

“She could have told me that I was mistaken. Is she mute? If I hadn't realized it soon enough, Yasmin would have already been dead.” Cassidy continued arguing with Fernando, “If Yasmin had not shown up in time this morning, Belle might have taken the drug from Yuna. I can't even imagine what would have happened.”

Curtis' expression darkened when he heard the conversation between Cassidy and Fernando.

All color drained from Rayna's face when she realized that there was indeed something wrong with the fruit-like drug.

However, she did not understand why Cassidy had not told her directly.

Rayna's gaze landed on Fernando. Her best guess was that Cassidy had wanted to protect the man.

It was clear that Cassidy was currently questioning Fernando because she was upset with him for bringing Yuna to her.

“Cassidy!” Fernando continued pleading with Cassidy, “Yuna is still young. She's the same age as Yasmin. Besides, they are twins. Can you really bear to let Yasmin lose her sister?”

After hearing what Fernando said, Rayna looked toward Cassidy. Judging by the expression on her face, she knew that Fernando had hit the nail on the head.

Cassidy remained silent for a long time.

A while later, Yasmin walked to the center of the courtyard and looked up at Rayna and Cassidy, who were on the balcony, and said, “Ms. Cassidy, please let Yuna in.”

Cassidy did not respond immediately.

Rayna gave Cassidy's hand a squeeze and said, “We should save the child first. We can talk about anything else after that. Let's just be more careful in the future.”

“Yuna had even tried to harm Yasmin previously.” Seeing that Rayna was feeling sorry for the girl, Cassidy decided to let her know about the severity of the situation. “Belle, we shouldn't save that kid.”

“Why? If it's simply because of the reasons you have listed—”

Cassidy interrupted Rayna before she could finish her sentence. Elaborating further, she said, “Because she's that person's experimental subject. There's something inside her... If it gets into you, I really don't know what will happen. What you have inside your body is the same as what the girl has.”

Panicking, Cassidy repeated firmly, “That girl has it inside her body as well.”

Both Rayna and Curtis were shocked at the sudden revelation.

Meanwhile, Fernando frowned and looked toward Yuna, who was in his arms.

He knew exactly what Cassidy was referring to. After what seemed like a long time, he said, “You are

not from here. Why would you have it inside you?”

Fernando looked at Rayna before shifting his gaze toward Curtis, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“Well, you should be asking your godfather instead! Who knows how many people he has harmed and how far he's extended his claws to!” Cassidy bellowed sternly. “Back then, he came here on the pretext of developing the area and even got the local government to collaborate with him. But the truth was that he was after our house!”

Taking a pause, she continued, “Fernando, please wake up! That man is treating us as his experiments.” Cassidy's entire body was trembling as she spoke. “I've been to the mansion where Yuna is staying. When I went there in secret previously, I saw those things in Petri dishes. Those people were extracting something from them and injecting it into Yuna.”
