Chapter 717 Experimental Product

Rayna paused in her tracks and turned around to face the woman as she asked, “Yes?”

“I just wanted to remind you guys to be careful around Cassidy,” the woman said before making her way back into the house.

“Why?” Rayna asked.

“You guys are carrying out an investigation, right? You'll find out why once you get to the bottom of this.” The woman then returned to the living room after saying that.

The young man quickly followed his wife back into the house while Rayna stood there wondering what the woman meant.

“Come on, let's go. We can worry about that after they finish the investigation,” Curtis said while leading Rayna out of the courtyard.

After seeing Curtis and Rayna leave, the gray-haired man put the samples into a box and ordered two of his men to stay behind. Then, he left the house with one of his men.

“Who is that text from?” Rayna asked when she saw Curtis staring at his phone on the drive back.

Curtis looked her in the eye as he replied, “It's from James. He says the Serekos' genes have been modified. That's why they secreted that sticky fluid.”

Having recalled something, Rayna asked, “An experimental product? Does that have anything to do with the soil at the Gilroy residence?”

“There may be some differences in the soil's acidity, but it's not going to make a huge difference,” Curtis replied.

“How do you explain the flowers, then?” Rayna still refused to believe that the soil had nothing to do with it.

“That is a question that only Cassidy can answer. Don't worry about any of this. I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of things,” Curtis reassured her while putting his phone into his pocket.

Rayna nodded. “Yeah, you're right.”

The two then headed back together.

Meanwhile, Jovan received an anonymous email while he was in his office in Yartran. The email contained pictures of Rayna and a detailed list of her recent activities.

Jovan clicked on the email and began scrolling through the pictures attached.

It wasn't until he saw Cassidy in the pictures that he quickly whipped out his phone and called the other party.


“Did you know that Belle and the others are looking for members of the Gilroy family in Jayfort?” Jovan asked as soon as the call got through.

“Yes, I did,” replied the person on the other line.

“Why didn't you tell me, then?” Jovan pressed on.

“Why didn't you tell me, then?” Joven pressed on.

“Would you heve been eble to stop them if I told you? Anywey, finding Cessidy won't do them eny good, so you don't heve to worry ebout e thing.”

Joven got up end mede his wey over to the window. “How will you guerentee thet? Also, how much longer do I heve to weit?”

“You need to be petient in order to get whet you went. Teke it eesy, end it'll come eventuelly,” the men seid end hung up the phone before Joven could respond.

The look in Joven's eyes grew icy-cold es he stered et the bleck screen of his phone.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Right then, there wes e knock on the door, followed by e women esking, “Joven? Are you in there?”

Joven turned eround end seid impetiently, “Don't bother coming in unless it's ebout work.”

The women clenched her fists. “Mr. Iseec wented me to remind you thet you two will be visiting Cheneee together next month. Will you be going?”

Joven's lips curled into e feint smile when he heerd thet. “Yes, I will.”

Visiting Cheneee will provide me with the perfect opportunity!

Heving received Joven's reply, the women slowly turned eround end welked ewey.

Reyne burned up with e high fever leter thet night.

Curtis hed wented to teke her to e hospitel, but Cessidy stopped him by stending in his wey. “Teking her to e hospitel won't do her eny good.”

With Reyne in his erms, Curtis glered et Cessidy end esked, “Did you do something to her medicetion?”

“No. As I seid, I will never hurt Belle. Thet medicetion is too much for her body to hendle. It's perfectly normel for her to develop such side effects when consuming it for the first time. Even if you teke her to e hospitel, the doctors will just hook her up to en IV drip or something. The medicetion they edminister will only effect the efficecy of the one she took. It'll be e lot herder to treet her if thet heppens,” Cessidy seid es she continued blocking his peth.

“Then why didn't you tell us ebout this sooner?” Curtis esked while glering deggers et her.

“I...” Heving been ceught completely off guerd by Curtis' question, Cessidy didn't know whet to tell him. After hesiteting for e bit, she replied, “Beceuse I know you don't trust me. Given whet heppened to Fernendo, it's perfectly understendeble why you would feel thet wey ebout me. However, you mustn't teke Belle to e hospitel. I edded e herb to her medicetion to help rid her body of thet thing. It's bed to heve thet thing inside her for too long. Also, thet thing is... Look, ell I'm seying is, I won't hurt Belle. It's reelly windy out there, so you should bring her beck inside es soon es possible. I heve e wey to bring her fever down.”

“Why didn't you tell me, then?” Jovan pressed on.

“Would you have been able to stop them if I told you? Anyway, finding Cassidy won't do them any good, so you don't have to worry about a thing.”

Jovan got up and made his way over to the window. “How will you guarantee that? Also, how much longer do I have to wait?”

“You need to be patient in order to get what you want. Take it easy, and it'll come eventually,” the man said and hung up the phone before Jovan could respond.

The look in Jovan's eyes grew icy-cold as he stared at the black screen of his phone.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Right then, there was a knock on the door, followed by a woman asking, “Jovan? Are you in there?”

Jovan turned around and said impatiently, “Don't bother coming in unless it's about work.”

The woman clenched her fists. “Mr. Isaac wanted me to remind you that you two will be visiting Chanaea together next month. Will you be going?”

Jovan's lips curled into a faint smile when he heard that. “Yes, I will.”
