His Versatile Gorgeous Wife novel Chapter 844

The sudden news left Cornelius in a daze. It wasn't until Arielle's reminder that he finally regained his senses. “Francis is my younger brother. Occasionally, he would drop by the shop to help out,” he explained.

In truth, Arielle didn't want to involve herself with the Mills' family matters.

“Her uncontrollable convulsions and the red welts on her skin are clear signs of tick paralysis. Was it possible that your brother brought in ticks when he visited Jennie?” Arielle asked.

Cornelius' eyes lit up. “My brother is an avid hiker.”

“An avid hiker...” Arielle mumbled before she turned to Jennie's parents and said, “Can the two of you wait outside? I want to give her a thorough examination.”

The couple trusted Cornelius immensely.

Naturally, they listened to Arielle as she was a fellow doctor introduced by Cornelius.

After they vacated the room, only Arielle, Cornelius, and Jennie were left.

“Did you and Francis sleep together?” Arielle asked without beating around the bush.

Jennie's face flushed with embarrassment as she glanced at Cornelius, unsure if she should tell the truth.

“Jennie, please don't lie. Although I'm Francis' elder brother, I am also your doctor. There is nothing that you can’t share with me,” Cornelius said with a frown.

“Yes,” Jennie murmured as she hung her head in embarrassment.

“Okay.” Arielle nodded. “I'll get Dr. Mill to give us some privacy before I check your body. Is that all right?”

Okay.”

Upon hearing Arielle's words, Cornelius left the room.

Although Jennie was mortified and scared, she allowed Arielle to remove her pants and inspect her body.

After all, they had checked every part of Jennie's body except for her private areas.

Since Jennie and Francis had just engaged in sexual intercourse, the tick must be somewhere here.
