Forrest’s logical breakdown was a wake-up call for Hank, whose expression grew complicated again. “Then there’s only one possibility left, and it’s the most unbelievable one of all.”
That their little sister was the most famous and mysterious healer on the Dark Web, the legendary ‘SaintHealer’—an elusive figure sought after by every wealthy person with a terminal illness.
“Underneath that stunningly beautiful and youthful face?” Morris added in his gentle voice. “Don’t forget, she’s only twenty. Is that even normal?”
Forrest replied, “I heard from Grandpa that she’s already preparing for graduate school. She skipped grades in college after publishing a medical report that apparently had a huge impact on the professors at her university.”
Hank interjected again, “Regarding Gavin’s death these past couple of days, not much information has been released from the sea, but I learned that Somali pirates were involved. I don’t believe for a second that those pirates just happened to show up and raid a dilapidated ship that looked completely penniless.”
His implication was that the Somali pirates might have some intricate connection to their sister, but so far, not a shred of evidence linked her to the incident. The fact that Lucian had cleaned everything up so perfectly only made them more suspicious that there was a hidden story.
Morris understood Hank’s meaning and sighed, his voice low and soft. “I don’t deny that geniuses exist in this world, but this… this is beyond genius.”
It was monstrous.
“Regardless, she’s our sister,” Forrest stated firmly. “If she doesn’t want to tell us the truth, we’ll pretend we don’t know. After all we’ve put her through over the years, it’s only natural for Loyce to still be wary and guarded around us. All we can do is love her even more.”
