Chapter 203
Cynthia helped Liam into the yard. The sun had completely risen, bathing the land in a golden glow.
Liam asked in hesitation, “Cynthia, will Master Buckley and Master Garten be angry if I simply go in!”
Cynthia placed Liam’s arm on her shoulder to support his body and lessen his exertion. Then she looked ahead firmly, replying. “They have already punished you. What else do they want? If they’re still dissatisfied, I’ll stay in the car with you then”
“Okay.” He didn’t want to put his weight on Cynthia but held her in his arms, and his broad figure completely enveloped her.
Just when they opened the door, they bumped into Evan.
Liam bowed slightly and greeted politely, “Master Buckley.”
Feeling unhappy, Cynthia said nothing and helped
Liam to the yard
yard with her head down
Looking at Liam’s pale face, Evan raised his eyebrows slightly and guessed the poison might have begun to attack Liam.
He knew about Delilah’s poisonous magic. He could tell that Liam had suffered a lot last night.
After Cynthia helped Liam to the seat, she checked his body carefully to see what kind of parasite it was.
Evan went to the
e kitchen and came
came out with breakfast
It was the leftover from what Cynthis cooked for Liam a moment ago.
“Oh, now I can only ride on others‘ conttails to enjoy the food cooked by my disciple. Evan said sourly while eating. Seeing that Cynthia ignored him and concentrated on checking Liam’s body, he kindly reminded her, “It’s a newly bred parasite by Master Garten. Only she can solve it.”
Upon hearing that, Cynthia slammed the tools she was holding onto the table, startling both Evan and Liam. She questioned unhappily, “Master Buckley, did you conspire with Master Garten?”
Evan immediately waved his hand. 1 disdain to conspire with her. My medical skills are solely for saving lives. I know it because Master Garten personally poured the coffee that day. Have you ever seen her serving anyone over the years! It’s just that this newcomer isn’t vigilant enough. But don’t worry. It’s not dangerous. He will only feel discomfort for a while.
Cynthia had no choice but to hold Evan’s hand and ask, “Master Buckley, do you know if there’s any way to solve this poison?”
Evan replied, “You can only ask Master Garten for help. But it’s still early, I advise you not to disturb her”
Cynthia couldn’t wait any longer and headed straight to Delilah’s room. But after only a few steps, she turned back to give Evan a meaningful look. Her hint was obvious.
Evan frowned unhappily and said, “You just don’t believe me. Do you think I’m someone who would kick him when he is down? He is already in such a condition. I won’t drive him away”
Only then did Cynthia leave with relief.
Delilah’s room was in the middle of the second floor. Cynthia knocked on the door twice but got no response from inside. She could only knock and shout, “Master Garten! Master Garten!” A few minutes later, there was a noise inside.
The door was finally opened, and Cynthia heard Delilah cursing. “Stop shouting early in the morning. Can’t you let me sleep? Hey! Slow down…. Before Delilah could finish her words, Cynthia pulled her downstairs.
Cynthia pulled Delilah next to Liam and asked, “Master Garten, what poison did you cast on him? Why can’t I identify it!”
Delilah held her forehead exasperatedly and responded indifferently, “I thought something had happened. Don’t worry. He won’t die. Then, she was about to walk upstairs again.
Cynthia hurriedly stopped her. “Master Garten, please detoxify him. Look at his condition. He has been vomiting everything he eats since last night. He can’t hold on for long”
“He can’t stand it anymore? Then, what do you do when a woman is pregnant and has to deal with morning sickness for over two months?” Delilah questioned rhetorically.
Seeing Cynthia blocking the stairs, Delilah didn’t rush to leave but sat down.
She said seriously to Cynthia, This poison is not harmful to the body. It just lets him experience the feeling of a woman’s morning sickness during
1/2
pregnancy. It will be excreted with the stool after three days” She paused and continued earnestly. “Cynthia, there are many men in this world whose affection and love come cheaply, I don’t want you to meet such a person. This poison is a test for him. It can also help him understand the hardship of women getting pregnant so that he will be more considerate to you in the future.”
Cynthia knew Delilah did it for her good, but she didn’t want Liam to suffer anymore.
She sat beside Delilah and persuaded coquerishly. “Master Garten, Liam treats me very well. He’s not an irresponsible man. He has suffered a lot since yesterday because of me. That’s enough, Master Garten. Please detoxify him.”
Delilah shrugged helplessly. “There’s no antidote for this poison. It will naturally be excreted from his body. The vomiting it induces will lessen over time, and the reactions should significantly decrease in the next two days. You don’t have to worry
Cynthia didn’t believe there was no antidote and desperately wanted to ask the truth. But Liam stopped her weakly. “Cynthia, it doesn’t matter. I feel much better now. Since this is what women must go through during pregnancy, I’ll experience it first. So I can be more empathetic when you get pregnant in the future”
Delilah yawned and went upstairs. “Well, I’m going to catch up on my sleep”
Looking at Liam’s condition, Cynthia frowned. Then she thought of something and ran upstairs quickly. A few minutes later, she returned with a bottle. After opening it, she handed it to Liam and said, “This should ease your pain.”
Liam took it and drank it. Instantly, the discomfort in his stomach significantly subsided, and he gradually regained strength. He looked at Cynthia and said with a smile, “I feel much better indeed. What is this?”
When Cynthia was about to explain, a roar suddenly erupted behind her. What did you drink?”
Cynthia was startled and hurriedly blocked Liam behind her back. She smiled at Evan, flattering, “Master Buckley, the savior who saves lives. You’ve got so many bottles, we only drank one, you shouldn’t mind, right?” As Cynthia noticed Evan’s face growing more gloomy, her voice gradually lowered.
Evan rushed over vigorously and grabbed the empty bonde, looking distressed
“My medicinet Do you know how difficult and precious this medicine is to refine?” He pointed at Liam with his trembling hand and looked at Cynthia in disbelief. “I can’t believe you gave this to this strong man. I’m not even reluctant to give it to those who are terminally ill. This is all I have over the years. Evan howled with tears
Liam thought in embarrassment. ‘Did I accidentally drink Master Buckley’s efforts over the years?
He tugged at Cynthia, but before he could say anything, Cynthia covered his mouth. “Shh. Don’t talk now, Master Buckley won’t do anything to me, but it may be different to you. Do you have any money on you now!”
