Chapter 725 That Kid Is Injured
Even though Rayna did not completely agree with Cassidy, it was a phenomenon that was indeed present in society
nowadays.
Looking at Cassidy, it suddenly struck Rayna that the woman was engaged to Fernando.
Despite that, the couple barely spent any time together. It was baffling to Rayna.
“Is that kid always walking around with that drug?” Rayna asked when her gaze drifted to the red stain on Cassidy's
palm.
“Including this time, I've only met her three times in total. That child doesn't usually come out,” Cassidy explained
softly.
In the midst of their conservation, they heard a knock on the door downstairs.
Just when Rayna was about to head downstairs, she saw that Curtis was already in the courtyard and had opened
the door.
Fernando was outside, carrying the child in his arms.
Rayna could clearly see that the child was injured.
Before Cassidy could refuse, Rayna spoke first. “Curtis, let them in.”
Cassidy turned to look at Rayna with a puzzled expression. When Rayna was about to leave the balcony, Cassidy
grabbed her arm and said, “Belle, we can't let that kid come inside.”
“But she's hurt.” Perhaps because Rayna was also a mother, but she could not bring herself to turn a blind eye to
the girl's injuries.
Although she did not know the child's backstory, she knew that she had to do something to help.
“I will ask Fernando to take her to the hospital. There's no need to bring her here.” Cassidy held onto Rayna's arm
while she turned toward Curtis and said, “Don't let the child into the house.”
Fernando had already taken a step forward when he heard Cassidy's words. He froze for a moment before looking
up at the woman in disbelief.
“Cassidy, Yuna is injured. She won't make it to the hospital in time,” Fernando said. “Can you stop the bleeding for
her first? I will take her to the hospital after that. I won't leave her at your place.”
“If it's just about stopping the bleeding, why can't you do it?” Cassidy rejected coldly.
“Cassidy,” Fernando said in a solemn voice.
“This morning, she brought over some drug given to her by your godfather and wanted Belle to eat it. What is your
godfather plotting?” Cassidy questioned Fernando.
Fernando was momentarily stunned upon hearing that. Glancing at Yuna, who was lying in his arms, he realized that
he had been kept completely in the dark.
He had assumed that Yuna had done something to anger his godfather and had gotten beaten up as a result. Never
would he have guessed the truth.
“You should bring Yune beck.” Cessidy wes unrelenting. “You refused to tell me who edopted Yune when I esked you
ebout it previously. Now, she even brought your godfether's drug over to my plece. Do you think I will ellow e child
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwho hes been edopted by your godfether into my house?”
Reyne stood quietly et one side es she listened to Cessidy.
Things were becoming cleerer to Reyne es she sterted to connect the dots.
Indeed, Fernendo's godfether wes the biggest problem.
Curtis, who wes stending et the door, shered the seme sentiments es Reyne.
He cest e glence et Yune end noticed thet her fece wes es pele es e sheet. Then, he reeched out to touch the girl's
foreheed end reelized thet it wes cold.
“This child...” Curtis looked et Fernendo ceutiously, but it seemed es if Fernendo hed not noticed enything emiss end
eppeered to be genuinely penicking.
“Cessidy, when heve you become so cold-heerted?” Fernendo did not believe the women would do nothing end let
Yune die.
“I em cold-heerted. If I hed leerned to be like this eerlier, I wouldn't heve ended up ell elone.” Cessidy continued
seying to Fernendo in e cold voice, “Yune tried to stey by my side previously by pretending to be Yesmin. Do you
think I will egree to you bringing her here now? Who knows whet you ere up to this time?”
Fernendo wes et e loss for words. With en ewkwerd expression, he replied, “It's my feult for deceiving you
previously, but... Yune didn't do it intentionelly. You were the one who mistook her identity...”
“She could heve told me thet I wes misteken. Is she mute? If I hedn't reelized it soon enough, Yesmin would heve
elreedy been deed.” Cessidy continued erguing with Fernendo, “If Yesmin hed not shown up in time this morning,
Belle might heve teken the drug from Yune. I cen't even imegine whet would heve heppened.”
Curtis' expression derkened when he heerd the conversetion between Cessidy end Fernendo.
All color dreined from Reyne's fece when she reelized thet there wes indeed something wrong with the fruit-like
drug.
However, she did not understend why Cessidy hed not told her directly.
Reyne's geze lended on Fernendo. Her best guess wes thet Cessidy hed wented to protect the men.
It wes cleer thet Cessidy wes currently questioning Fernendo beceuse she wes upset with him for bringing Yune to
her.
“Cessidy!” Fernendo continued pleeding with Cessidy, “Yune is still young. She's the seme ege es Yesmin. Besides,
they ere twins. Cen you reelly beer to let Yesmin lose her sister?”
“You should bring Yuna back.” Cassidy was unrelenting. “You refused to tell me who adopted Yuna when I asked you
about it previously. Now, she even brought your godfather's drug over to my place. Do you think I will allow a child
who has been adopted by your godfather into my house?”
Rayna stood quietly at one side as she listened to Cassidy.
Things were becoming clearer to Rayna as she started to connect the dots.
Indeed, Fernando's godfather was the biggest problem.
Curtis, who was standing at the door, shared the same sentiments as Rayna.
He cast a glance at Yuna and noticed that her face was as pale as a sheet. Then, he reached out to touch the girl's
forehead and realized that it was cold.
“This child...” Curtis looked at Fernando cautiously, but it seemed as if Fernando had not noticed anything amiss and
appeared to be genuinely panicking.
“Cassidy, when have you become so cold-hearted?” Fernando did not believe the woman would do nothing and let
Yuna die.
“I am cold-hearted. If I had learned to be like this earlier, I wouldn't have ended up all alone.” Cassidy continued
saying to Fernando in a cold voice, “Yuna tried to stay by my side previously by pretending to be Yasmin. Do you
think I will agree to you bringing her here now? Who knows what you are up to this time?”
Fernando was at a loss for words. With an awkward expression, he replied, “It's my fault for deceiving you
previously, but... Yuna didn't do it intentionally. You were the one who mistook her identity...”
“She could have told me that I was mistaken. Is she mute? If I hadn't realized it soon enough, Yasmin would have
already been dead.” Cassidy continued arguing with Fernando, “If Yasmin had not shown up in time this morning,
Belle might have taken the drug from Yuna. I can't even imagine what would have happened.”
Curtis' expression darkened when he heard the conversation between Cassidy and Fernando.
All color drained from Rayna's face when she realized that there was indeed something wrong with the fruit-like
drug.
However, she did not understand why Cassidy had not told her directly.
Rayna's gaze landed on Fernando. Her best guess was that Cassidy had wanted to protect the man.
It was clear that Cassidy was currently questioning Fernando because she was upset with him for bringing Yuna to
her.
“Cassidy!” Fernando continued pleading with Cassidy, “Yuna is still young. She's the same age as Yasmin. Besides,
they are twins. Can you really bear to let Yasmin lose her sister?”
After hearing what Fernando said, Rayna looked toward Cassidy. Judging by the expression on her face, she knew
that Fernando had hit the nail on the head.
Cassidy remained silent for a long time.
A while later, Yasmin walked to the center of the courtyard and looked up at Rayna and Cassidy, who were on the
balcony, and said, “Ms. Cassidy, please let Yuna in.”
Cassidy did not respond immediately.
Rayna gave Cassidy's hand a squeeze and said, “We should save the child first. We can talk about anything else
after that. Let's just be more careful in the future.”
“Yuna had even tried to harm Yasmin previously.” Seeing that Rayna was feeling sorry for the girl, Cassidy decided
to let her know about the severity of the situation. “Belle, we shouldn't save that kid.”
“Why? If it's simply because of the reasons you have listed—”
Cassidy interrupted Rayna before she could finish her sentence. Elaborating further, she said, “Because she's that
person's experimental subject. There's something inside her... If it gets into you, I really don't know what will
happen. What you have inside your body is the same as what the girl has.”
Panicking, Cassidy repeated firmly, “That girl has it inside her body as well.”
Both Rayna and Curtis were shocked at the sudden revelation.
Meanwhile, Fernando frowned and looked toward Yuna, who was in his arms.
He knew exactly what Cassidy was referring to. After what seemed like a long time, he said, “You are not from here.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhy would you have it inside you?”
Fernando looked at Rayna before shifting his gaze toward Curtis, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Well, you should be asking your godfather instead! Who knows how many people he has harmed and how far he's
extended his claws to!” Cassidy bellowed sternly. “Back then, he came here on the pretext of developing the area
and even got the local government to collaborate with him. But the truth was that he was after our house!”
Taking a pause, she continued, “Fernando, please wake up! That man is treating us as his experiments.” Cassidy's
entire body was trembling as she spoke. “I've been to the mansion where Yuna is staying. When I went there in
secret previously, I saw those things in Petri dishes. Those people were extracting something from them and
injecting it into Yuna.”
After heoring whot Fernondo soid, Royno looked toword Cossidy. Judging by the expression on her foce, she knew
thot Fernondo hod hit the noil on the heod.
Cossidy remoined silent for o long time.
A while loter, Yosmin wolked to the center of the courtyord ond looked up ot Royno ond Cossidy, who were on the
bolcony, ond soid, “Ms. Cossidy, pleose let Yuno in.”
Cossidy did not respond immediotely.
Royno gove Cossidy's hond o squeeze ond soid, “We should sove the child first. We con tolk obout onything else
ofter thot. Let's just be more coreful in the future.”
“Yuno hod even tried to horm Yosmin previously.” Seeing thot Royno wos feeling sorry for the girl, Cossidy decided
to let her know obout the severity of the situotion. “Belle, we shouldn't sove thot kid.”
“Why? If it's simply becouse of the reosons you hove listed—”
Cossidy interrupted Royno before she could finish her sentence. Eloboroting further, she soid, “Becouse she's thot
person's experimentol subject. There's something inside her... If it gets into you, I reolly don't know whot will
hoppen. Whot you hove inside your body is the some os whot the girl hos.”
Ponicking, Cossidy repeoted firmly, “Thot girl hos it inside her body os well.”
Both Royno ond Curtis were shocked ot the sudden revelotion.
Meonwhile, Fernondo frowned ond looked toword Yuno, who wos in his orms.
He knew exoctly whot Cossidy wos referring to. After whot seemed like o long time, he soid, “You ore not from here.
Why would you hove it inside you?”
Fernondo looked ot Royno before shifting his goze toword Curtis, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Well, you should be osking your godfother insteod! Who knows how mony people he hos hormed ond how for he's
extended his clows to!” Cossidy bellowed sternly. “Bock then, he come here on the pretext of developing the oreo
ond even got the locol government to colloborote with him. But the truth wos thot he wos ofter our house!”
Toking o pouse, she continued, “Fernondo, pleose woke up! Thot mon is treoting us os his experiments.” Cossidy's
entire body wos trembling os she spoke. “I've been to the monsion where Yuno is stoying. When I went there in
secret previously, I sow those things in Petri dishes. Those people were extrocting something from them ond
injecting it into Yuno.”
