Chapter 279: Chapter 279

Chapter 279 Cassandra gave Leanna a careful check–up and took her pulse. She found that Leanna had been poisoned for a long time. The doctor was right. Leanna did not have much time to live.

If she didn’t get treatment in time, she would be dead in a few months.

Looking at her solemn face, Hugo asked worriedly, “Ms. Yates, is it a tricky one?”

Cassandra looked serious so he subconsciously thought the problem was very serious.

Cassandra said coldly, “The poison is curable. It’ll be a bit difficult to get rid of it since it has been inside her for so many years.”

The poison was not something very powerful. However, one traditional herb required for the antidote was hard to find.

They were surrounded by modern medicines. It was difficult for modern medicine to solve this poison. If it had been just a virus, modern medicines would have cured Leanna long ago.

They didn’t know this so they had been using modern medicines to keep Leanna alive.

The follow–up treatment would be complicated but it was not a serious problem.

Hugo nodded. He thought, ‘Great!‘

When Darren and the others heard this, they looked happy. Darren was surprised. “Really? Is it really curable?”

This was great news for Darren. The nightmare that had been haunting him for 18 years was finally coming to an end.

Cassandra walked to Harper with dull eyes. She said coldly, “Stretch out your hands.”

Harper was stunned. He didn’t reach out his hands but put them behind his back. He shook his head and said, “Cassie, I don’t want your treatment. Don’t leave us, okay?”

Chapter 279 He couldn’t take Cassandra’s indifferent attitude although she was impatient with him too at school but it was because she thought he was harassing her.

Before she went back to Clusia, she had changed her attitude toward Harper. He even became her friend.

But everything changed in less than two days.

Cassandra gently raised her head and glanced at Harper. “Whether you accept my treatment or not doesn’t matter. Take your life more seriously. If I don’t treat you, I am afraid that Mr. Yates and Ms. Leanna Stark will hunt me down all over the world after you die.”

Harper was stunned. He looked anxious, helpless, and regretful. He turned to Darren, hoping that he could explain it but Darren just moved his lips slightly without making a sound.

Harper shook his head. “Cassie, my life or death is none of your business. I don’t want you to make a deal with Dad.” He couldn’t accept this.

Cassandra suddenly shouted, “Jeremiah!”

She didn’t want to talk with Harper anymore. When Jeremiah heard Cassandra’s voice, he immediately walked to her and put his arm around Harper’s neck. He said with a wicked smile, “My prince, it is a fact now. You can’t change it. Your condition is more complicated. You were born with the poison. So you have to have a careful examination. Don’t let your father down.” Jeremiah took Harper’s hand and extended it to Cassandra.

After taking Harper’s pulse, Cassandra said to the doctor, “Show me the medical records of Harper and Her Majesty.”

The doctor walked out of the room. “I’ll get them.”

Cassandra turned to Leanna, who was lying on the bed, and took out a silver needle from her bag. “I’ll insert one needle into her.

She will wake up in half an hour.

Cassandra said to Darren in a low voice, “Find me a guest room. I’ll have to stay here for a while.”

They were guests here so naturally the host should prepare guest rooms for them.

O He thought, ‘As long as you stay here.’

After the acupuncture treatment, Cassandra turned to Kenneth with a glint of tenderness in her eyes. Kenneth naturally noticed it. He walked to her and. comforted her softly. “Cassie, you must be tired. Let me take you to rest, okay?”

Cassandra just looked at Kenneth in a daze and nodded obediently.

Watching Cassandra behaving so obediently, Jeremiah was jealous. He had never seen her like this before.

Kenneth held Cassandra in his arms and asked Theodore, “Where is the guest room?”

Theodore hesitated. He looked at Cassandra with tenderness in his eyes and said, “Cassie, there is always a room for you in the Queen’s Palace. First a crib and then a bed. It will be replaced with a new one every year and someone will clean it every once in a while.”

Cassandra froze and then she calmed down. “No need. I’m just a doctor.”

Theodore was expectant at first. But hearing Cassandra’s answer, he felt heartbroken.

He thought Cassandra was still so heartless.

He thought, ‘Cassie, what can we do to make you forgive us?”

Kenneth, Jeremiah, and Hugo were all inside the guest room for Cassandra. Cassandra looked at them and said coldly, “Ken, go back home with Jeremiah.”

Kenneth tilted his head to the side to look at her. Although he looked gentle, obviously, he was angry.

Kenneth said, “Wherever you are, I will be. I won’t leave if you don’t.”

Kenneth sounded very firm. He would stay where Cassandra was.

Jeremiah was also displeased. He immediately protested. “I won’t leave either. I will be wherever you are. You can’t get rid of me.”

O 10:15 Tue, 12 Mar GG ·

Chapter 279 Cassandra was speechless.

She thought they had misunderstood something.

She turned to Kenneth and said, “If you don’t go back home, who will be in charge of the Falcon Special Operations Force? Who will give orders to them? How can the leader be absent? This is absenteeism. How can you not respect the military discipline?”

She turned to Jeremiah and said, “If you don’t go back home, who will solve the technical problems that the Falcon Special Operations Force encountered? Hugo is here. Who will be in charge of Whitecrane Hall?”

She glared at them and said, “You have a lot of things to deal with. Why do your insist on staying here with me? I still need you to go back to solve my problems at school. Hurry up and go back home.”

Kenneth was speechless.

So was Jeremiah.

It seemed that what happened just now didn’t affect her at all. She still lectured them like how she used to do.

Kenneth said, “But you...”

Cassandra raised her eyebrow and looked at Kenneth. “Do you think they can give me any trouble?”

Kenneth was speechless.

He thought, ‘No really.

He just thought Cassandra needed someone to be with her so he didn’t want to leave her now.

Cassandra said, “Go back home. It’s not safe here. I can only rest assured after you’re somewhere safe. Hugo has medical skills so he can assist me with the treatment. You guys cannot. So go back where you’re supposed to he She thought, “This is a place where a war can break at any moment. What can they do here anyway?

5/5 10:15 Tue, 12 Mar Chapter 279 ‘The nation needs them. They are supposed to be there for the nation, not here.”

Kenneth said, “Okay, I’ll go back to finish my work and then I’ll come back here for you. Wait for me.”

Kenneth did have received orders earlier but he decided to assign them to Yannick and Kayden.

Now that Cassandra already asked him to go back, he would go back. But he would. come back when everything else was dealt with.

Anyway, Kenneth would follow her anywhere.
