The doctor immediately rushed over to examine Ellen, then said, “Her body temperature is 39.9 degrees. She has a high fever. She probably fainted due to prolonged exertion combined with a cold, which turned into an acute cold.” Jacob frowned. Ellen was sick because she helped Xavia. His eyes dimmed, and guilt welled up inside him as he watched the doctor put Ellen on an IV drip and place a fever patch on her forehead. After the doctor left, he stayed by her bedside and monitored her body temperature. Half an hour later, her body temperature, which had just decreased slightly, increased once again. Jacob immediately fetched a basin of water, wrung the towel, and put it on Ellen’s forehead. After that, he went to look for some medicine to cool her down physically.It took several hours, along with the medication, for Ellen’s body temperature to finally return to normal. However, she still seemed weak and had no signs of waking up.Jacob called the doctor to check on her again.

If she were to get hurt because of this matter, she and Zivon would feel guilty for the rest of their lives. Ellen calmly said, “It's better to have as many people helping as possible. I'm also better at extracting useful information through hypnosis. As long as we find specific clues, Young Master Burton can find Fabiola and reunite her with you. I’m very excited to see that happen!” Jacob frowned and said, “If that’s the case, I’ll go with you.” Ellen gave him an astonished look, and as she was going to say something, he explained. “Since you’re trying to help, The Frankstons should be responsible for your safety.” Xavia quickly nodded her head. “That’s right, let's do that. Otherwise, I’d be worried about you being alone.” Ellen pursed her lips exasperatedly. “Fine.” The next day, Ellen and Jacob headed to the Golden Bay pier. Once they disembarked from the boat, they went directly to an old man's home.Upon arriving, Ellen learned that the old man lived by the dock, an

...As if she was even talking about that! In the end, she simply grumbled, “…At least in your case, I’m pretty sure you only think with your dick, now shut up already!” …This lady really had anger issues. Shaking his head, he then sighed before turning the other side and trying to get some rest, prompting Ellen to do the same… Despite how tiny the bed was, the two somehow managed to refrain from touching each other… and though Jacob was eventually able to drift off to sleep, Ellen herself began having a raging headache, to the point where even breathing became a little difficult. It didn’t help that she began coughing erratically as well, and in the end, all that coughing woke Jacob up. Raising a slight brow, he took some medicine and a bottle of water out of his backpack before handing them to her and saying, “Here…” Naturally, Ellen was startled to see this. Was he truly a considerate man deep down…? Regardless of whether he was or wasn’t, she slowly sat up to take the medici

“A-alley… Um… W-what happened next?” “She… never came out again…” “…What about the arm that grabbed her? Any details? Please think carefully.” “…Large arm… Scorpion tattoo…” Though Ellen and Jacob both wondered if that was even enough information to go with, the frowning Zivon took out Joseph’s photo… and sure enough, there was a scorpion tattoo there! Now frowning as well, Jacob was prompted to say, “…Yeah, it fits the bill. Let’s get the cops to capture him-” “Negative. Remember, he’s evaded capture for ages, so calling the cops won’t be much help. What’s more, if he gets alerted by our actions, we could completely lose track of him,” interrupted Zivon who had actively been lying low this entire time specifically so that Joseph wouldn’t learn about his search efforts. Desperate criminals like him were near fearless, and since Zivon had promised to bring Fabiola home safely, he was going to make sure that he kept to his word! Either way, now that Jacob understood Zivon

They found themselves having sacks slipped over their heads! It was clear that Joseph didn’t want them to see where they were going… and when they finally had their sacks removed, they found themselves standing before a lonely house surrounded by desolation… Without knowing this place properly, it was evident that escape was nigh impossible… No wonder he had been able to remain hidden for so long! Either way, when Joseph finally began inspecting Jacob’s body, Ellen couldn’t help but gulp a little. After all, she had simply applied some allergen drugs on Jacob’s skin, and if Joseph was a competent doctor, then they’d surely be found out in no time! As expected, it didn’t take long for him to ask, “…You’re saying the doctor only gave him ten days left to live?” Nodding in response, Ellen retained her calm façade as she replied, “Yeah… The doctor living on the bridge in town said it, and everyone says he’s a great doctor… However…” “…Go on.” “…Well… Brother was honestly a fit ma
