Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 1355

Trevor waited for a long while but still nothing; not even a hi!

Bummed, he locked his phone in a sulk. Meanwhile, back in Casterwich City, Victoria, who was worn out from the journey, happened to be dead asleep in their bed right then...

As he had frustration bottled up and a second meeting with Mr. Henwick the next day, Trevor could only set private affairs aside for now. And just like that, it was already three days later when he was done with work. Plus, the old holistic doctor had given them the good news, so he hurriedly took Selena to him as soon as he was free.

"Doctor, can she really be cured?"

"I'm afraid the only guarantee I can give you is my best. As they all say, illness comes like a tidal wave but leaves like molasses in January. It's wishful thinking that the results will be evident immediately! But the blend I've mixed for her will help clear the toxins accumulated over the years. It'll definitely help her body recover, but as for how well, it'll depend on her body and how much the medicine has taken effect! I'd like to set her up with a course of treatment; come back for a follow-up in a month. If it's taking effect, I'll adjust the dosage and prescription according to how her sickness progresses. If it doesn't..." The doctor shook his head then, looking all even-l-can't-do-anything.

"Thank you, Doctor! But what on earth caused her illness?"

"Toxin! A peculiar one. Similar to the symptoms I've seen after being bitten by a kind of venomous bat. As they are generally nocturnal creatures, the most evident peculiarity of those who had been bitten by this venomous bat is sensitivity to light. But each body reacts to it differently! It could be that the toxin mutated, evolved, or has to do with the individual's body! But the toxin in her body has evidently affected her blood circulation; it's dire! I can only try my best

now!"

Following that, the doctor explained a few more things, but he was obviously cryptic, especially when he mentioned the blend's ingredients. Trevor, of course, knew each job had its secrets, but hearing that there could possibly be progress, a relative affirmation, it was already groundbreaking good news to him. Sure enough, the best were all hidden amongst society!

He was a humble doctor, not demanding much, only five thousand dollars for a month's blend. That alone had Trevor thinking highly and utterly grateful toward him, leaving after thanking him again.

"It'd be great if I can be fully cured! Trevor, let's celebrate with dinner tonight!"

Selena suggested when they were in the car, seemingly excited.

Trevor's mood had brightened up as well, but after sinking in, his mind had already floated elsewhere before he knew it.

"Maybe next time. I still have other things to deal with! The sooner I get it done, the sooner we can go home. Let's take you back to the hotel first!"

He had been so busy the last few days that he hadn't even had time to check in on the two. He'd be lying if he said he didn't feel guilty or upset!

However, deep down, Selena didn't want them to return to Casterwich City so soon. More than that, she knew he hadn't gone to Victoria and Caroline when he had been tirelessly working the last couple of days. So she had an idea of what was on his mind.

However, Caroline was also in the mix, so even if he said it out loud, it wasn't wise of her to act out of line. So she just went along with it and smiled wryly. "Okay, don't exhaust yourself!"

After dropping her and Nina at the hotel entrance, Trevor ordered the chauffeur to drive away. He called Holger during the ride. He already had people reach out to the printing company to replicate all 99 of the limited edition collector's albums, though he only needed two within the stack and even already took them to Ichi Miyamoto for autographs two days ago.
