Chapter 648
Curtis went back to the bedroom and saw Rayna surrounded by the triplets on the bed. The nanny was standing
nearby because she was worried that the kids would fall off the bed.
At the same time, he saw lots of toys lying around the bed.
When Yelena saw Curtis sitting down on the side of the bed, she crawled toward him. Meanwhile, Yosef was minding
his own business while sitting in the center of the bed. Xareni, on the other hand, was sitting next to Rayna and
tugging at her shirt and fingers.
“Has the guest left?” Rayna asked. Although Curtis hadn't said a single word after entering the room, Rayna could
tell that someone had just entered the room, and that person was Curtis.
Yelena was yanking at the buttons on Curtis' sleeves, so he carried her and put her on his lap before putting his arm
around her and letting her continue what she was doing.
“Yes,” Curtis answered in a deep voice.
Rayna merely hummed in acknowledgment upon hearing that. Right then, a housekeeper brought in a plate of
fruits. Curtis saw that and pointed at the bedside table next to Rayna. “Leave it there.”
The housekeeper put the plate of fruits down before leaving the room quietly.
Curtis then carried Yelena to the other side of the bed. Seeing that, the nanny moved a couch nearby toward Curtis
so that he could sit.
As the couple bonded with the kids, Alfred stood outside the bedroom with his cane. He smiled at the heartwarming
sight in front of him before turning around to leave. The butler was right behind him.
Alfred slowly walked toward his bedroom with his cane. “Levi, what do you think about Kelvin's visit?” While walking,
he started conversing with his butler, Levi Coman.
Levi froze momentarily, but he quickly composed himself and answered, “I think Commander Clark was just here to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsee you. After all, he used to stay in Northville.”
“That was more than two decades ago.” Alfred let out a sigh and looked at his cane. A moment later, he
enunciated, “Tell those in Jadeborough to keep an eye out.”
“Okay,” Levi answered before helping Alfred into his room. After settling Alfred down on a recliner, he said, “Old Mr.
Faymon, I'll get someone to make you a new pot of coffee.”
With that, he ordered the housekeeper to make another pot of coffee.
In the first month after returning to Norwal City from Yartran, Rayna never left the Faymon residence.
One of the reasons was that she couldn't see. Besides, Curtis was too busy with work, so he didn't have time to
bring her out. Therefore, she could only spend time in the Faymon residence.
In the meantime, the medical team Curtis employed from Granatano had given Rayna a conservative treatment
plan to remove the blood clot in her brain. She was told to take medicine from both traditional and modern
practitioners.
Milo prescribed Rayna a week's worth of modern medicine while Harvey recommended a traditional medicine
practitioner that he knew. Before the traditional medicine practitioner could prescribe anything, though, he would
have to check Rayna's pulse first.
Sitting at his desk, Harvey handed a note to Curtis, who was opposite him, and said, “Mr. Faymon, this is the
address where the old traditional medicine practitioner lives.”
Curtis took the note and frowned when he saw the address written. “Shvomhid Mountain?”
Curtis lifted his head and shot Harvey a dubious look. “Are you telling me that the old traditional medicine
practitioner you told me about stays here?”
“Yes.” Harvey nodded. Upon meeting Curtis' dubious gaze, Harvey tapped on his tablet before showing the screen
to Curtis. While pointing at the map of Norwal City, Harvey said, “Here.”
“Shvomhid Mountain is an uninhabited area! Dr. Galopin, are you sure about this?” Curtis put the note on the desk
and uttered, “Shvomhid Mountain is currently a protected mountain in Chanaea. If no one is allowed to go there,
how could anyone be staying there?”
“That's something that happened three years ago. Although Shvomhid Mountain is still not open to the public, the
old traditional medicine practitioner isn't an ordinary person. He has been staying in Shvomhid Mountain for years
now with the government's permission.” Harvey turned the note that Curtis had left on the table around and moved
it toward Curtis. “Since you didn't mind spending a fortune to get me to come from Granatano, I don't think you
should question my professional competency.”
Curtis reached out his hand to pick up the note. His expression remained frosty as he stared at the address. “The
roads on Shvomhid Mountain aren't suitable for cars, so we would have to go there on foot...”
Not only could Rayna not see, but Shvomhid Mountain was huge. Finding an old traditional medicine practitioner on
the mountain was an impossible task.
Wanting to get more information out of Harvey, Curtis asked, “Shvomhid Mountain is massive. Is the place the old
traditional medicine practitioner staying at easy to find?”
“I'm sorry, but I don't know the exact spot,” Harvey replied in a helpless tone. At the same time, he looked
conflicted.
Curtis noticed the look on Harvey's face, so he raised his eyebrow and questioned, “Since there are so many
traditional medicine practitioners in Norwal City, why must I look for one that stays on Shvomhid Mountain?”
Harvey smiled when he heard those words. While adjusting his glasses, he answered, “That's because this particular
traditional medicine practitioner has the most effective medicines.”
“Is it because he stays on Shvomhid Mountain?” Curtis finally realized something. Shvomhid Mountain is filled with
all kinds of wild herbs used in traditional medicines, and that's why it's protected by Chanaea.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes.” Harvey nodded. After that, he took out a small pouch from his drawer and gave it to Curtis. “When you guys
are on the mountain, make sure Mrs. Faymon wears this.”
Curtis was utterly baffled as he took the pouch with dandelions printed on it.
“I can't explain it to you, but you have to make sure that Mrs. Faymon is wearing this when you guys are on the
mountain.” As soon as Harvey finished his sentence, someone came knocking on his door.
“Who is it?” Harvey queried.
“It's me, Dr. Galopin,” Lucas replied. “Dr. Lockhart instructed me to remind you that she has taken your car.”
“Got it,” Harvey answered before looking at Curtis and sizing him up.
In response, Curtis took the note and clasped it in his palm before rising to his feet. “I shall leave you to your work,
Dr. Galopin.”
With that, Curtis walked toward the door, pulled it open, and left.
Robin was sitting in the driver's seat and waiting at the entrance of the hospital. He was a little surprised to see
Curtis exiting the building after just half an hour.
“Are we going back to the Faymon residence, Mr. Faymon?” Robin asked after seeing Curtis entering the car
through the rearview mirror.
Curtis opened up the note and ordered, “Go to the research center.”
Robin paused for a while before he recomposed himself and drove to the research center.
Meanwhile, Rayna was walking back into the house after taking a stroll in the courtyard when a housekeeper came
up to her and said, “Mrs. Faymon, Mr. Faymon called to inform you that you'll be having lunch on your own. He has
something to attend to and won't be back in time.”
Hearing that, Rayna nodded and answered, “Okay. Get on with your duties.”
With that, Rayna relied on her memory and her white cane to head straight for the staircase. When the
housekeeper behind her saw that, she quickly went over to provide aid.
