Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 16

This revelation completely blindsided me. It was absolutely mind-boggling. Could it really be some sort

of supplement? If it was, then why on earth had it transformed me into this state?

I shook my head vehemently at the Catherine in the video call screen, "It's impossible, absolutely

impossible. My cat's condition after taking the medicine is exactly the same as my previous comatose

states. I watched the entire process with my own eyes, how could there be no issue? Catherine..."

I stuttered, my gaze fixed on the Catherine in the video.

Catherine asked impatiently, "What is it, spit it out, you're killing me here!"

"Are... are you sure the person you let in is reliable?" I asked cautiously, after all, the only person who

had handled the tonic when it was out of my sight was the repairman.

"Absolutely! He's Ronan Stewart's cousin!" Catherine replied with certainty.

"Ronan?" My heart skipped a beat.

"Yes!" Catherine chuckled awkwardly, explaining, "Aaliyah, you know how important it is to find

trustworthy people for such tasks, so... he's definitely reliable!"

"That's odd then!" I murmured weakly, not pursuing the matter further.

My head buzzed and my scalp tingled. Had they discovered that I was conscious? Otherwise, how

could there be nothing wrong with the medicine?

The image of Jaylan's wicked grin flashed in my mind, sending chills down my spine.

"Catherine, help me track Jaylan's whereabouts for the past few days, as detailed as possible. Also...

please find a computer technician as soon as possible. I want to access Jaylan's computer. He has

changed his password, and I can't get in!"

"Alright, I'll figure something out. Just stay safe!" Catherine reminded before ending the call.

After hanging up, I reviewed everything in my mind. I had been extremely careful at every step, there

was no way I could have slipped up.

Could it be that I scared Zora when I showed her my injured scalp and she backed off?

No, I can't allow things to spiral out of control. I need to take the initiative.

I pulled out my phone and switched to the live surveillance feed. It was late and only the hallway lights

were on, casting a dim tranquility. It seemed everyone was asleep.

I scrolled back through the surveillance footage and saw Jaylan carrying Carl to the kids' room. After

leaving the kids' room, he went straight to Zora's room.

I had been prepared for this, knowing that Jaylan had cheated. But seeing it with my own eyes, I

couldn't help but clench my fists, my hands trembling with rage.

I forced myself to continue scrolling through the footage. There was no sign of him leaving that room.

I thought to myself, "Jaylan, for all our ten years of marriage, you stooped so low as to get involved with Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

the nanny. That's bad enough, but to harm me the way you did, it's simply unforgivable. I will not let you

get away with this."

With a fierce determination, I threw off the blanket covering me, got out of bed barefoot, and quietly left

the room. I was certain that I would find the evidence I needed in his study.

I paused at the door of the study, listening to the silence. I pushed open the door and quickly stepped

inside. The room was pitch black, but as soon as I stepped inside, the lights flickered on, blinding me.

Shielding my eyes, I saw Jaylan sitting on the couch, watching me with a dark, unreadable gaze. I was

frozen on the spot, as if struck by lightning.

Wasn't he supposed to be in Zora's room?
