NovelEnglishChapter 844 Counterattack Of The Poison
Ever since Luna was in Dellmoor, she had been staying temporarily at the guesthouse adjacent to the
Bowers manor.
Leading a disciplined lifestyle, she was used to waking up early every morning. When Samuel dropped
by and pressed the doorbell, she had already woken up and was saying a prayer for her late
grandfather in the room.
Seconds later, she stepped out to answer the door and was astounded to see Samuel standing outside
the guesthouse.
“Mr. Samuel…” She was caught off guard by the latter’s sudden appearance.
“There’s something I need to ask you.” Samuel cut to the chase.
“Okay! Please come in.” She moved aside to let him in and lead him to the room.
Samuel scanned the room intuitively and was impressed by its cleanliness.

faint refreshing herbal smell. At that moment, there was even a whiff of herbal fragrance in the room.
Samuel caught a glimpse of the baby otter plush on the bed, but he did not even arch his brows.
After serving him a cup of tea, Luna asked courteously, “Mr. Samuel, you mentioned that there’s
something you need to ask me. What’s that?”
Samuel unbuttoned his cufflink and rolled up one of his sleeves before stretching his forearm toward
her. “You’ll be able to detect it from my pulse.”
Luna knitted her brows, placing her index finger and middle finger slightly against Samuel’s wrist. She
then tried to feel the rate and rhythm of his pulse with her eyes closed.
His pulse seemed stable and powerful, but somehow Luna could detect faint unusual pounding rates in
between.
Dumbstruck, she opened her eyes and piped up, “How’s that possible?”
“Between you and your grandpa, who has more expertise in the medical field? Had he ever briefed you
about my condition?” Samuel asked candidly.
There was a drastic change in Luna’s countenance, but she responded nonchalantly, “Even though I
can’t claim to be more skillful than my grandpa in the medical field, I’m familiar with your illness and
well-trained by him. If not for the Bowers family, the Garcia family would have been wiped out a century
ago. As the descendent of the only bloodline who cheated death at that time, I started pursuing
knowledge in the medical field at a young age. On top of that, my grandpa told me I bear the
responsibility to suppress the poison in your body. Thus, I know what happened to you and what your
current pulse reading indicates.”
After pulling back his forearm, Samuel queried placidly, “All right. Can you tell me what my pulse
reading implies?”
After pondering for a while, Luna replied warily, “It implies the poison in your body can’t be suppressed.
In fact, there are symptoms of a counterattack.”
Samuel squinted his eyes and instructed, “Carry on.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“The poison in your body has never been expelled. Grandpa had only come up with a solution to
suppress it for at least a century. Nonetheless, it was good enough to prevent the poison from invading
your body during your lifetime. Most importantly, this method won’t affect your health. However, the
poison seems to have broken free from my grandpa’s suppression. No doubt, it’s still at the early stage,
but I foresee your body systems and functions being affected by it sometime later,” Luna explained
further somberly.
Samuel knew at once that his speculation was proven right. He asked grimly, “Luna, what on earth is
happening?”
Luna furrowed her brows and contemplated for quite a while before something came to her. “It could be
due to the drug that accelerates aging. At that time, your body aged at a rapid rate. Subsequently, the
poison that was supposed to be suppressed underwent rapid fission too. Even though you were
injected with the antidote, it could only restore your body functionality. Nonetheless, the fissioned
poison can’t be eliminated…”
That was the only speculation that could explain the current change in Samuel’s body.
“Luna, try to apply Old Mr. Garcia’s method to suppress it again,” Samuel instructed solemnly.
