Chapter 750
Bella furrowed her brow, "You guys were swimming in the ocean?"
Dailey nodded.
Panic laced Bella's voice, "Were there, like, sea snakes or something? Did one bite her?"
Christine was a strong swimmer, at least that's what Jane had mentioned before.
All Bella could think of was skind of mishap occurring.
Dailey shook his head.
That area of the ocean was safe; he'd checked before letting Christine go swimming. If there was any danger, he
wouldn't have let her in the water.
Seeing the distress in his face, Bella dropped the subject.
They just awaited the doctor's prognosis.
"Mr. Clarkson."

"What's the verdict?"
The female doctor said, "It looks like she got tangled in seaweed, which caused the drowning incident. But Ms.
Jackson must have had an allergic reaction to something, which led to the shock." "Allergic to what?" Dailey
inquired.
The doctor replied, "It's hard to say. The ocean's full of variables; it could be an allergy to the seaweed, for all we
know."
"Has Ms. Jackson swum in the ocean before?"
Dailey didn't know much about Christine's past. He couldn't just investigate her like she was a business deal.
They were in a relationship, not a corporate merger.
"I'll make a call."
He hadn't wanted to bother Jane and Gregory, especially since they had just been through a whirlwind of events
and were finally settling into their honeymoon. But now, he and Christine had disrupted their peace.
If only he hadn't pushed Christine away initially; perhaps staying in Vista Town would have been safer than being
elsewhere.
Too many issues had arisen.
"Greg,"
Once the call connected, Dailey was straightforward, "Quick question, bro. Has Christine ever swum in the ocean
before? And does she have any allergies?"
Gregory stepped out of the room to take the call, not wanting to disturb Jane's rest.
Hearing Dailey's questions, he turned back, gently waking Jane from her slumber.
His voice was soft, "Jane, there's a bit of an issue with Christine."
Jane's eyes flew open, immediately concerned, "What happened? Was the security system not fixed?"
"It's not that," Gregory relayed Dailey's inquiries.
Jane looked confused for a moment, "She's swum in the ocean before, with He..."
She paused, then redirected, "But as for allergies, I've never noticed any. She might not even be aware herself."
Gregory advised her to rest again.
before informing Dailey, "Speople only discover their allergies through direct contact. Like with seafood,
mangoes, or certain medications. And sallergies are sorare, they might never be discovered."
Dailey fell silent for a moment, "Don't worry. | won't let anything happen to Christine. Don't rush back; I'll keep

Gregory agreed, then hung up and reassured Jane.
But Jane couldn't just sit still, "I can't just wait. An allergy, especially an undiscovered one, can be deadly."
Gregory, however, thought differently.
It was too much of a coincidence.
Indeed, life is full of unexpected events.
But the recent ones clearly targeted Christine.
And the suspect was obvious.
"Let's leave it to Dailey."
Gregory hugged her close, sitting on the edge of the bed, "Even if you went back, you'd just be waiting. It's the
sas staying here."

But was it the same?
Being able to see Christine could at least give her speace of mind, unlike now, fraught with worry.
"Let's promise to take another honeymoon later, okay?"
