Chapter 650

‘'You've been there with your sister?” Theodore was surprised to discover that bit of information. “Was it just you and Rayna who've been there before or the entire family?”

“It was just Rayna and me, and we kept it a secret from our family.” James slowly opened up and told Theodore everything. “Back then, our family didn't have enough money to send my mother for treatment when she was sick. Later on, we heard some elders mention the expensive herbs on Shvomliid Mountain. However, the regulation in Chanaea specifically states that Shvomliid Mountain isn't open to the public to protect its natural environment.”

“So, the two of you sneaked up the mountain?” Theodore was shocked to hear James' side of the story. Yet, he knew it was a terrific opportunity to chat further because Curtis had told him that an old traditional medicine practitioner who could cure Rayna's sickness lived on Shvomliid Mountain.

“Well, not really. Someone led us there.” James shook liis head and continued. “I was really young back then, so I can barely recall anything. On the contrary, Rayna would remember everything. It's just that she's lost her memory now.”

“You said that someone brought you there. Was it someone you knew?” Theodore latched on to that important bit of information and pursued it further.

“I'm not sure if it was someone familiar, but I recalled him staring at Rayna in a very weird manner. Anyhow, he led us up the mountain, and we managed to get some herbs. I have no recollection of anything else that happened thereafter.” James tried his best to think back, but he could not remember all the details, considering how young he was back then. “I know I pestered Rayna to bring me along in hopes of having fun at the mountain.”

Hearing so, Theodore knew James did not have much impression about the details. Ironically, the one who used to have a memory like an elephant now suffered from amnesia. He sighed and muttered, “Tilings would be easier if Rayna hadn't lost her memory.”

Meanwhile, at the Faymon residence. Rayna was resting on the couch.

She lay there for a long time until the throbbing pain in her head stopped. Then, she slowly propped herself up and bent down to search the floor for her cane.
