Crises in Love novel Chapter 36

Around noon, Catherine gave me a call, told me that Dr. Edmond had received the antidote sent from overseas. She asked me to text her when it was safe, and she would bring it to me.

Without any hesitation, I told Catherine, "Let's meet up somewhere! I'd love to see you and chat."

" Can you?" She seemed surprised by my proposal, questioning, "Are you well enough?"

"I need some fresh air, I'm going stir-crazy here." I said in a half-joking manner. "Jaylan has been spreading chaos, why can't I step out for a bit?"

Catherine laughed heartily in agreement. "He's gotten too comfortable!"

I informed Catherine, "Jaylan has explicitly ordered me to stop taking my medicine!"

"What's going on? What's he up to now?" Catherine asked, "Is he trying to create a diversion? You need to be careful."

"You're always spot on. He's definitely up to something. He must have sensed my suspicions, so he had Zora stop my medication! But something feels off, it's not just that!"

Truth be told, this feeling was strong, but I couldn't pinpoint what it was. If he's already decided to turn against me, why stop now when he's so close?

"Okay, let's meet and talk. Let me know where you want to meet, I'll come pick you up! But isn't it a bit too soon?" Catherine was somewhat worried about my safety.

"No, it's not!" I said cryptically. "I will make her fall asleep, and make it a habit. Somewhere near our community would be fine, it's convenient to get back."

"You mean, it's her turn to sleep now?" Catherine teased, she of course knew how I dealt with Zora.

I smiled knowingly.

After lunch, Carl went to nap early, probably due to not feeling well. So, I added a little something to Zora's meal, making her join Carl for the nap.
