Her Precious Baby

No wonder I’ve never seen such unusual-looking plants before. Turns out those are medicinal herbs.

At that thought, Angeline was confused. “But why are they planted in your house?”

“It’s just some nonsensical logic from Roger, claiming that my backyard is an auspicious place in terms of geomancy.”

Upon hearing that, Angeline couldn’t help but chuckle softly as she spoke wryly. “I suppose he chose your backyard because your house is relatively safe.”

She was smart enough to guess it right away.

Evander’s mood improved significantly when he saw her smile. He then leaned against the couch and explained in a low voice, “Yes. Roger’s father raided a lot of the medicinal herbs developed by Roger and confiscated them all. Thus, it’s safest to leave the herbs with me.”

Evander, of course, would never engage in any business that would result in a loss.

Roger’s medical skills were exceptional. He had treated many people acquainted with Evander that suffered from unusual and complex conditions throughout the years.

All of a sudden, a thin layer of cold sweat beaded Angeline’s forehead, and terror flashed across her eyes.

If Evander hadn’t stopped her in time previously, she would’ve been poisoned.

As the two of them were chatting, Roger’s solemn voice was heard from upstairs.

“Could you bring Mrs. Golding upstairs now, Evander?”

Roger was dressed in a black protective suit and gloves, but they had no idea what he had been up to upstairs. A strong aroma of medicinal herbs wafted from the room.

Evander took Angeline up to the third floor. It was originally a small rooftop but had since been turned into a laboratory by Roger.

There were rows of cabinets lined up in the large space. They were either filled with books or different kinds of rare and precious medicinal herbs.

Even though Angeline had prepared herself for the unexpected, she was still taken aback by what she saw in front of her.
