"Cassian, didn't you say it was a parasite? Why is it a snake?" Claude asked in confusion."That's the Two-Fanged Venom parasite," Cassian replied while pointing at the little snake. "It was only the size of the tip of a toothpick when it was inside Lord Drakeford's body. It was a very cunning creature. It not only hid itself behind his lungs but could also roam freely along all of his blood vessels.""If that's the case, Dr. York, it should've been discovered during any of the previous tests Lord Drakeford took," Horace remarked. "Why did none of the medical tests ever reveal its existence?""Perhaps you're unfamiliar with the parasitic poisons from the Mogerra territory. These parasites are cultivated from young and fed fresh blood daily. Once it enters a person's body, it will hide itself within the blood vessels and become exceedingly difficult to locate," Cassian explained."Moreover, the parasitic poisons of the Mogerra territory are extremely mysterious. There are ways to en

After Thiago regained consciousness, his condition rapidly improved. He insisted on getting out of bed and even wanted to host a party to thank Cassian, Horace, and the other doctors.Concerned about Thiago's health, Claude urged, "It's already quite late right now, Lord Drakeford. Why don't we treat them to a meal another day?"Alas, Thiago refused to listen to him."Tell the chef to prepare some food that will pair well with alcohol. And bring out that 30-year-old vintage bottle I've been saving. I want to enjoy it with Cassian and the others.""The parasitic poison was only just removed from your body, Lord Drakeford. It's best if you stay away from alcohol for the time being," Claude cautioned once more."A few drinks won't hurt, right, Cassian?" Thiago checked.Chuckling, Cassian replied, "You can't drink too much, but a little bit is fine.""You hear that? Cassian said I can still drink a little. I'll just have one glass today. Hurry up and make the arrangements," Thiago i

After sending everyone else off, Thiago asked Cassian not to leave just yet. Cassian knew this meant that Thiago had something to say to him."Cassian, do you know why I wanted you to take Horace as your mentee?"When Cassian shook his head, Thiago explained, "Horace is a highly skilled doctor, and he's also the chairman of the Rivershire Traditional Medicine Association. Even Dr. Penrose, the president of Rivershire Hospital, has to show him some courtesy. You'll have nothing to lose but everything to gain if you take on a mentee like that."Moreover, I can tell from Horace's attitude that he's sincere about wanting to learn from you. Taking him in as your mentee will do you a lot of good.""So, what you're saying is, I made the right call by agreeing to be Dr. Sunderland's mentor," Cassian said with a smile."Horace has a lot of connections in Rivershire. You'll definitely need him at some point," Thiago said before asking a question. "What did you do to remove the Two-Fanged Ve

Cassian had already made up his mind. No matter who had hired the hitman to go after Serena, as long as he found proof, he wasn't going to go easy on the culprit.Thiago said, "Frederick is one of the Four Elites of Rivershire. He has the Campbells backing him up. If you go after him, you'll be making an enemy out of the entire Campbell family."Not only that, Frederick is good friends with Michael and Jordan. If you kill him, they will definitely avenge him. You'll have two more enemies then."Cassian's brows creased a little. Who would've thought it'd be this troublesome just to kill someone?That being said, he wasn't going to change his mind."If it was really Frederick's doing, I'll take them all out together," he declared, his voice brimming with domineering bloodlust."Very good!" Thiago declared with a beaming smile. "This is precisely the next piece of advice I wanted to give you, Cassian. The moment you decide to kill someone, you must do a clean job of it. Otherwise, y

While Lydia was railing on Cassian, a grim-faced Frederick was over at a high-end private hospital in Rivershire."Why is there still no news?"He was getting a bad feeling about the situation.Just then, the door to the hospital room opened. Jordan and Michael came in.Catching sight of Frederick's stormy expression, Jordan asked sweetly, "What's wrong, Freddy? Are you tired? Shall I give you a massage to help you relax?""Get lost!" Frederick barked.Looking deeply hurt, Jordan wrapped both his arms around Michael's arm and complained with a pout, "Look at Freddy, Mikey! He's being so mean to me again. Boohoo…""Shut up, or I'll shut you up myself!" Frederick roared, his gaze murderous as he glared at Jordan.Shrinking back in fright, Jordan quickly hid behind Michael."What a twink," Frederick snarled.Michael could also see that Frederick was in a foul mood, so he asked tentatively, "What's wrong, Frederick?""I can't get in touch with the hitman I hired," Frederick mutt
