Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 407

Chapter 407 Tentative Still, there was reaction from Samuel. Kathleen sighed and poked his face withher finger. “You've fallen into a coma because you thought I was dead, right? Butnow, I'm right infront of you.

Why won't you open your eyes and look at me?” He's such a headache! She lost her patience soon.“I'm ignoring you! I have a lot of things to do, and I don't have time to keepyou company.

If you don't wake up soon, I'll leave you here, and you'll be all alone!” After a few moments, shestillreceived no response. “Samuel, please wake up.

Let's fall into a deep slumber together after we die, but not now.

You have to wake up, okay?” Kathleen took his hand and pressed it against her face, her voicehoarse.” What should I do ifyou stay in a coma forever? Samuel remained motionless.

The only noise that echoed in the room was his breathing. She blinked her moist eyes andfumed,“D*mn you, Samuel.

I'm going to leave you here!” Upon finishing her sentence, she turned to leave and went to herbedroom. Her things had just been moved into the room. She tooktwo of her medical books beforegoing to look for Zion, who had just returned from his walk around the manor. “Kathleen, thismanor is huge.

I've been walking forever, yet I haven't even toured half of it.” He wiped the sweat on his forehead.“You should take care of your health.

Don't think you're fine now and tire yourself out.” Kathleen handed him the medical books andcontinued, “Read these two books and memorizethe contents.

I'll give you a spot test a few days later.

If you fail to memorize the points, I won't accept you as my apprentice.” Zion held the books inhisarms like they were the most precious treasure in the world.

“Don't worry.

I have a sharp memory.

Just give me a week, and I'll memorize everything like the back of my hand.” Kathleen chuckled"Stop bluffing.

A week? These two books may not look thick, but I bet you'd at least need a month.” “I'liprove it toyou then!” Zion was determined. “Fine,” she replied indifferently. “Where are you going?” he askedcuriously. “I'm going to check on Yareli.” “I'll go with you!” He caught up with her. “Why are youtagging along?” She looked at him in surprise. “I want to watch how you treat patients.” “I'm just likeany other doctor.

The only thing different about me is that I excel at both traditional and modern medicine.

I'm not that impressive,” she said wryly. Does he think I have a special way to treat my patients? Asthey talked, they reached Yareli's ward.

It was one of the rooms that was situated on the first floor. Florinia Manor was huge, witharound adozen rooms on the first floor. Thus, Kathleen transformed some of the rooms on the first floor intoher office and wards. Yareli lay motionless on her sickbed. Kathleen checked her pulse with a solemnexpression before examining her eyes and body. Zion imitated her and felt Yareli's pulse, too.Kathleen lifted her eyebrow.

"Well? What do you think?”

"Her pulse is weak.

I can't feel anything at times,” he uttered with a frown, unsure whether his observation was accurateor not. “That's a sign of poisoning.” As she spoke, shetook a scroll out and spread it open, revealinga row of silver needles. She took one of the silver needles and jabbed it in between the thumb andforefinger of Yareli's right hand. Moments later, a bulge appeared on Yareli's abdomen which beganmoving. When Zion saw that, he felt goosebumps all over his skin.

“What is that?”

“That's just a parasite.

Don't make a huge fuss.” She glanced at him. “Oh.” He tried his best to stay calm. Although he knewabout parasites, that was the first time heever saw one in real life. After Kathleen removed the silverneedle, the bulge in Yareli's abdomen disappeared. Zion queried in shock, “Kathleen, is this thereason she remains unconscious?” “Yes.

I have to replace a way to get rid of the parasitic worm.” She nodded. He asked curiously, “Is itchallenging?” “I don't know much about parasites

I only learned some from Theodore when I was with him,” she replied. “Should we call Grandpa andask him?” Kathleenhanded Zion her phone.

“You could try and see if the call goes through.” He took the phone and dialed Theodore's number,only to replace out that the number no longer existed. As helistened to the robotic voice on the otherend of the line stating that it was an invalid number, he was dumbfounded.

"What's going on?”

Kathleen took the phone from him.

"He disappeared, of course.

You didn't know, right? The entire Axeworth Corporation now belongs to Lauren.” “Will Grandpa befine?” He was worried. She responded apathetically, “He's assly as a fox.

Why wouldn't he be fine? No news is good news.

Don't worry.” “You don't seem to care about him at all,” Zion said with a faint voice. “Why should Icare?Not only did he try to save you in exchange for my daughter's life, but he also tried to kill me.”She arched an eyebrow. A sheepish look appeared on Zion's face as he decided that he should justshut up. Kathleen took her phone and dialed another number. After two rings, an alluring voicesounded on the other end. “I didn't expect you to call me again.” Lauren's tone brought with it ahint of amusement. “I'm calling to congratulate you.

You've finally gotten what you wanted.” Kathleen spoke coldly. “Hmph! Save all the hypocrisy.”Lauren snorted. “I'm curious, Lauren.

Why didn't you announce to the world after you've gotten Axeworth Corporation all to yourself?”Kathleen asked while wearing ahalf-smile. “That's none of your business!” Lauren replied furiously.“Let me guess.

All you got is an empty shell, right?” asked Kathleen tentatively. Lauren merely snorted in response.As she did not deny it, Kathleen knew that herguess was right. “Were you the one who savedNicolette? Did you give her the parasitic worm?” Kathleen went back to the main topic. Lauren wassilent. “Lauren, you might not know much, but you excel in the field of parasitic worms.

On the other hand, Nicolette knows nothing about parasitic worms.

You were the one who gave her the parasitic worm so she could implant it in Yareli's body, right?”Lauren let out an evil chuckle.

“So what if I did? I'm in the business.

If you want to save Yareli, that's fine.

Give me money or something else I want, and I will give you the antidote.” “Did you forget aboutsomething, Lauren? A person can only beimplanted with one kind of parasite in their body.Nicolette implanted a parasitic worm in Yareli's body.

So, what about the female lovebug that was previously in her body? What is it really?” askedKathleen with an unfathomable tone. Lauren fell silent again. Kathleencontinued, “The male andfemale lovebug are the most powerful parasites.

The other parasites are no match for them

However, the parasite you gave Nicolette was able to overtake the female lovebug in Yareli's body.Does that mean the female lovebug in Yareli's body was a fake?” Beep.

Beep. Kathleen was speechless when she realized Lauren had hung up. Zion overheard the wholeconversation.

“Is she embarrassed because you exposed her?” Kathleen put her phone away.

“Yeah.” “I didn't expect the main reason you called her was to ask her about the female lovebug.She thought you called her because you want to save Yareli,” he uttered. Initially, he believed thatwas the case. Kathleen glanced at Yareli.
