Chapter 98 Suspect
Titus didn't want to talk more about his past, but looked at Yank nervously. "Mr. Wood, could you tell me
whether my father's illness can be cured?"
Yank was not a gossiper. He nodded and said, "Yes, I will make a complete treatment plan as soon as
possible. I can do acupuncture for the first time soon, but..."
Seeing Yank's hesitation, Titus felt nervous again and asked, "Mr. Wood, you can tell me everything.
No matter what, I can accept it."
Hearing this, Yank was a little hesitant and didn't know how to explain. Just then in Ryan's room, he
smelled a special smell. It was not the smell of traditional medicine, but the smell of two kinds of
poisonous herbs.
Yank had been trained by his master since he was a child, so all his senses were much more sensitive
than ordinary people. Furthermore, he had a very detailed grasp of medicinal materials.
As the same as what happened to Garret Chad, Mr. Old Chapman had the same illness as him. It
seemed that someone had done it on purpose. The chronic toxin slowly seeped into their body. If it Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
weren't for the money of the two families, the two old men would have died a long time ago.
"Titus, I'll tell you something important now. Do you believe me?" After thinking for a while, Yank looked
at Titus seriously. He knew how unbelievable his next words would be, so he wanted to see his attitude.
Titus had been struggling in Bayland for so many years. Of course, he understood what Yank meant.
He nodded without hesitation and said, "I believe. Although I had doubts about you before, now I
completely trust you."
Hearing his words, Yank no longer hid anything and said honestly, "Titus, listen. I'm afraid that your
father's illness is the same as Garret's. They are all poisoned by the same slow-stage poison which
was hard for others to notice."
Titus was shocked. He frowned and said in shock, "That's impossible, isn't it? At my father and Garret's
age, it's not strange for them to have heart disease.
Isn't this a little too incredible?"
Yank had already expected this question, so he explained, "I know it sounds incredible, but think about
it in another way, maybe that's what the person who poisoned them wants you to believe."
"But there is another possibility. Your father really has heart disease, but not as sick as they are now.
Someone secretly did something to make his condition worse."
Titus was more willing to believe the latter, but he was still quite surprised. He asked in an excited
voice. "Mr. Wood, are you serious? Who is so hateful?"
"Titus, calm down first. The reason why I have this guess is that I smelled some toxic medicinal
materials in Ryan's room. This drug is mixed with others in the prescription. Although it can't kill people
immediately, it will also slow down the recovery of the disease." Yank comforted him.
Titus calmed down and understood what Yank meant. Someone had secretly harmed his father and let
him die in pain unaware. In this way, no one would think that it was murder.
"The other reason why I think it was made by someone is that it is always a little cold in Mr. Chapman's
room even if the heat was turned on, as if a wind blew in from the outside." Yank continued.
Titus was a little confused and looked at Yank with a puzzled face.
Yank explained patiently, "Let me tell you briefly. Even a young man stays in an environment where the
negative energy is too strong for a long period, his body function will gradually decline, let alone an old
man like Mr. Chapman."
"I believe that Mr. Chapman should have been very healthy before, but in this way, his body naturally
couldn't bear it, so the death gets closer to him soon."
Titus looked very serious. He had always been worried about his father's illness and never thought
about the things behind it. After he heard Yank's words, he suddenly understood, and at the same time,
he felt very angry.
This person behind the scenes was too insidious. He killed an old man silently in such a way.
"Now please think carefully, is there anyone who has contacted your father frequently over the years?"
"Well, let me see. Except me, Lily, and the housekeeper, the one who has been here for the past seven
to eight years is Edie.
" Titus recalled and answered truthfully. When he mentioned Edie, his expression gradually froze.
After a long silence, he said slowly, "Mr. Wood, are you saying that the mastermind behind this might
be Edie?"
Yank admired Titus’ observation ability very much. He immediately understood what he meant. Yank
firmly believed that it was a correct decision to recruit him. "Now everything is speculation. There is no
substantial evidence, but only she and the housekeeper are suspected."
Titus then explained, "The housekeeper has been following my father for almost decades. If he wants
to hurt my father, there are too many opportunities. There is no need to go through so much trouble."
As he spoke, he could not hide his dismay. This meant that only Edie was suspected of doing this.
The woman he loved most would actually think of such a way to hurt his father. He was extremely
angry and surprised. If Edie really did this, he would definitely make her regret it.
The next morning, Yank woke up comfortably. This was the first time he had slept outside. He didn't
need to get up early to make breakfast for Lucy and felt very relieved.
Soon, he couldn't help sighing with emotion. "When can I sleep with Lucy?"
Unfortunately, this was an unreachable dream, which was more difficult than carrying out an
assassination mission abroad. To make Lucy completely accept him, he had to whack Austin, who was
the biggest obstacle between them, but this was impossible.
After sighing with feeling, Yank put on his clothes and got out of bed. As soon as he opened the door,
he found a maid standing outside with breakfast and a glass of milk in her hand. She seemed to have
been waiting for a long time.
"Hello, Mr. Wood. Our master specially told me that I will take care of you here for the next few days.
Would you like to eat in the room or in the restaurant?" The maid said gently with a smile.
Yank couldn't help but dream how happy he would be if Lucy could be as kind as this maid to
him. lightnoveldaily.com
