may have the antidote”

“Alright. Dr Frankie let’s get going. We’re in for a long night, Dr. Frankie’s mentor said, briskly striding out of the pathology lab. He needed to start formulating a new antidote urgently

Dr Frankie quickly followed him “Right behind you”

The two men exited Magnus room

Left alone inside the room were Natalia and James Noticing the downtrodden look on Natalia’s face, James felt obligated to comfort her “Natalia, don’t worry Magnus will pull through this. But we must find Belle This woman is unimaginably wicked”

With a heavy sigh, Natalia voiced her concerns, ‘We’re at a disadvantage, Belle has the upper hand. She must have planned this well in advance. If she’s decided to hide, it wont be easy finding her”

By now, if she could be found, Marissa and her team would have done it already. The fact that they hadn’t meant that Belle was hiding out of sight. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Natalia, stay here and look after Magnus I refuse to believe that Belle is invincible! Every person leaves traces Even if she’s hiding in a rat hole or a sewer, I will find her!” James declared, before hurrying out of the room. Tll be back soon. I can’t believe Chase and his team can’t find one woman!”

Watching James hurried departure. Natalia couldn’t help but feel desolate. It was true, why was Belle so hard to find? Days had passed, and not a trace of her was found.

Sighing. Natalia walked over to Magnus, wanting to help wipe the sweat off his forehead

She fetched water from the bathroom and used a towel to carefully clean Magnus. As she was meticulously wiping him down, she noticed a small patch of yellowing decaying skin behind his ear

Shocked, Natalia rubbed her eyes and looked again. Sure enough, a yellowish fluid was seeping from the decaying patch behind Magnus ear. Remembering Dr Frankie’s previous warning about the poison causing decaying skin, Natalia quickly checked Magnus‘ arms, chest, and legs for similar symptoms. Thankfully, she found none

However, when she checked his back, she found the same yellow, decaying patches. Overwhelmed by panic and despair, Natalia ran out of the room to the lab, tears streaming down her face

Upon seeing Natalia, Dr Frankie, who was holding a test tube, turned and asked, ‘Mrs. Andersen, what brings you here?”

“Dr. Frankie. Magnus, his skin it’s decaying it’s turning yellow. Could the poison be causing worse symptoms?” Natalia managed to choke out through her tears.

Hearing this, Dr Frankie quickly set down his test tube and headed for the door Just as he reached Natalia, she fainted

“Mrs. Andersen‘ Mrs Andersen! Dr. Frankie managed to catch her before she fell, calling her name in a panic. But Natalia remained unconscious, leaving Dr. Frankie in a state of frantic indecision. He knew that if anything happened to Natalia, an awakened Magnus would never forgive him

Dr Frankie’s mentor ambled over, shot Natalia a glance, and then spoke to Dr. Frankie in a deep, stern voice, “As a physician, I can’t believe you’ve lost even the most basic judgment Shes fine She fainted because she’s overworked and overly anxious. A good night’s sleep will set her right.”

A flush of embarrassment colored Dr. Frankie’s cheeks. Natalia’s fainting had been so abrupt that he’d momentarily forgotten he was a doctor himself Professor, could you please keep an eye on her? I need

to go check on Magnus condition”

“Go ahead Ah, it’s such a shame to see these two lovebirds suffer the professor sighed, shaking his head in pity at Magnus and Natalia’s predicament.

When Natalia woke up, daylight was streaming in through the windows. She rose wearily from the lounge chair in the pathology lab, her eyes still slightly unfocused. She immediately asked. “How’s Magnus? You guys need to

Natalia’s words were cut off as Dr. Frankie, who had been dozing off after a night of work, sprang up at her words

He finally let out a sigh of relief “Mrs Andersen, I examined him last night. What Mr. Magnus is experiencing is an inevitable pathological reaction. I’ve instructed the nurse to administer medication”

Natalia finally relaxed “That’s a relief. But, will those yellow lesions continue to worsen? What will happen to Magnus if they do? And, wasn’t I taking care of Magnus, in his room? How did I end up here?”
