Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1130 A Trip to the Science Academy

Led by a girl, Nicole arrived at the library of the medical base and started reading books related to the voodoo bug. Back then, White had set up a medical base in Durobrivae and wanted her to inherit it. Unfortunately, she was later pregnant before marriage and was not in the best position to take over. Thankfully, Gina was capable enough to manage the base all these years.

Page by page, she perused the books, but even at the medical base, there were very few guides about voodoo bugs, and she only managed to find a few books after searching for two hours. Voodoo bug was tough to cultivate and could only be raised through careful environmental and temperature control while using blood as the feed. In addition, to break the curse, she had to know which type of bug was used.

While reading the information, she could not help but frown and lower her head, thinking, This is not an easy problem to solve, and only the science academy has the voodoo bug now. Looks like I'll have to think of a way to make a trip to that place.

Two hours later, Colton found her, and the report was out very quickly because the equipment in the base was more sophisticated. At that stage, the bug was right beneath the heart, only inches away before intruding. As Nicole read the report, the frown on her face deepened.

When he lowered his head and saw her face, he patted her head and assured her, "Alright, Nicole. Don't worry. I'm fine."

Biting her lip, she thought for a while before lifting her head at him and said, "Colton, I have to visit the science academy. I suspect that the voodoo bug this time is the brainchild of Ryan Yael. If I want to solve the problem from the root cause, I'll first need to find out the breed of this bug."

"The science academy? Ryan Yael?" It seemed that Colton had heard this name before as his sword-like brows furrowed when she mentioned him, as though he was trying to recall something. A few seconds later, he said solemnly, "Nicole, I've heard of Ryan Yael from the science academy. Word has it that the Yaels are a bunch of talented people, but their talent lies in the making of poison."

The Yaels did not have a pleasant reputation amongst the upper class because they were notorious for poison-making.

Nicole nodded. "I know that, but there's no other way out. If I don't search there, you can only hold on for another two weeks, at the most."

The light in Colton's eyes went out the next second, and he placed a hand on her supple cheek, smiling bitterly. "If the curse can't be lifted from me in two weeks, will I fall in love with Evelyn?"

Although reluctant, she nodded in reply. "Yes."

He felt his heart turning cold because the last thing he wanted was to give up on Nicole. Since he was born, he was the heir to the Gardner Family that was high and above. Never before had he been threatened like this. "Fret not. I'll look for many renowned doctors, and they'll have a cure."
