"Strange?" Justin frowned.

"It's not surprising for your older brother to be able to access the medicine, considering he was deeply involved in Meridan for many years. The Reeds were willing to work with the Salvador family because of him."

Bella's beautiful face darkened. "But how did Christopher manage to get it?"

This question left Justin puzzled.

"He's the abandoned son of the Iverson family who has been living in Sentania. How could he possibly have connections in Meridan?"

The more Bella thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She said, "I've got this eerie feeling that perhaps Christopher might know your older brother."

Justin blurted out, "How is that possible?"
