Crises in Love novel Chapter 31

"She can't possibly carry this thing around with her all the time! The most logical place for it should be the kitchen... it's easy for her to use." I thought.

I even dissected every single unbrewed herb packet, comparing the ingredients as I went. Indeed, they were all the same.

Defeated but not willing to give up, I ventured into Zora's room. I rarely enter her space, and I was surprised by the amount of stuff she had. Her closet was packed with clothes, but I didn't find any of Jaylan's things.

She's been in this house for too long, she's practically a member of the family now, and she's even audacious enough to want to play the lady of the house!

On her vanity, I saw a collection of luxury makeup, including the same perfume that I use.

I had a hunch these gifts came from Jaylan.

I didn't have time to investigate further. Instead, I meticulously searched her room, but found nothing suspicious. I was so tired I could barely stand, my heart pounding like it was about to explode.

I slumped onto the floor, pondering. Could the drug be gone? Otherwise, why were the drug suddenly missing from the medicine I tested?

They didn't seem to suspect that I was aware of their schemes. I had been careful, hadn't I?

For safety, I trembled as I dialed Jaylan. He finally answered after an eternity. When I asked about Carl, he said Carl had acute pneumonia and was undergoing treatment.

I asked when he would be done and if he needed to stay at the hospital.

Jaylan said the doctor needed to observe Carl, telling me not to worry.

After the call, I knew they wouldn't be back anytime soon. I didn't know whether to feel relieved or worried.
