“If nothing unexpected happens, the ritual to summon the Gu worms should take place in about two or three days,” Lornell said.
“Ritual?” Tina exclaimed in surprise.
“Let’s call it a ritual, shall we? Do we really have to say surgery? After all, although it involves drawing some blood and performing some procedures on his body, there’s no need for an actual incision. He’ll just have to take the Quentin family’s secret medicine. Whether he can make it through and how many side effects he’ll have, it all depends on his luck,” Lornell said, then turned to Tina.
“You must have failed in your conversation with him. He has already greeted my grandfather. I can escort you out now. The deal you mentioned before can be considered null and void,” Lornell said.
“I don’t want to!” Tina exclaimed. “Now that I’m already in the Quentin family, I want to take Chandler with me when I leave. Don’t forget, you promised to help me with my affairs!”
Tina emphasized the word “assist” on purpose!
Lornell frowned, “If we do this, there’s no turning back. Are you sure you really want to do this?
Chandler doesn’t even believe you have feelings for him now. Is it necessary for you to do this?”
“Do you believe it or not, it’s his business. I’ll just do what I want to do!” Tina said.
No matter what, she didn’t want him to take on such a huge risk.
Lornell looked at Tina with a determined expression. After a moment, he said, “I can give you the medicine, but whether or not you want to drug Chandler is up to you. And remember, you must never mention my name afterward!”
He definitely didn’t want to be chased by Chandler!
I couldn’t stop thinking about him. Every moment, every breath, his face was imprinted in my mind. I longed to see him, to be in his presence once again.
But fate seemed to be playing a cruel game with us. Our paths never seemed to cross, no matter how much I wished for it. It was as if the universe was conspiring to keep us apart.
But I refused to give up. I would do whatever it takes to see him, even if it meant going against all odds.
Because when I’m with him, everything else fades away. He is my world, my everything.
I will find a way to see him, no matter what. Our love will conquer all obstacles, and we will be together, forever.
“Great!” Tina agreed.
Lornell left and after a while, he came back to her with a bottle of medicine.
“Colorless and tasteless liquid, you can pour it on his food or in his drinking water and beverages, just a few drops should do the trick,” said Lornell.
Tina furrowed her brows as she looked at the bottle of medicine in her hand. No matter how she looked at it, there were at least 50 milliliters of liquid inside.
“Why are you giving me so much when all I need is a few drops?”
“Consider it a gift, after all, it’s not like you can get pregnant in just one try,” Lornell said.
“…Tina was speechless. Did he mean for her to use it multiple times?”
“When can I see Chandler again?”
Someone was guarding outside the room, so she couldn’t just move around freely.
“Well, that will depend on your own abilities. If you get into any trouble, I’m sure Chandler will come to see you,” Lornell said.
Tina raised an eyebrow. “Okay, then please tell Chandler that I fainted!”
“…This time, the speechless one was Lornell.”
“Please help me out, otherwise I won’t be able to have another child and you won’t be able to research anything.” Tina pleaded.
Lornell reluctantly said, “Fine, I’ll help you this once.”
“Thanks a lot!” Tina said.
However, to her surprise,, no matter if she fainted or went on a hunger strike, Chandler just didn’t come to see her.
Tina was getting anxious. If things continued like this, she might not even get to see Chandler until the parasite was already out!
In short, we can’t keep waiting like this anymore!
Tina opened the door and walked out without hesitation.
The security guard at the entrance of the Quentin family stopped me and said, “Miss Stephenson, without the owner’s orders, you cannot wander around!”
“I want to see Chandler. If you don’t want me wandering around, just take me to where he is.”
“Sorry!” The other person said as they reached out to grab Tina.
Tina seemed to have anticipated it and immediately pulled open her collar, shouting loudly, “Someone is violating me!”
Suddenly, the security guard’s face turned red and he quickly pulled back his hand, saying, “I didn’t do it!”
Tina took advantage of the opportunity and quickly ran towards the other side. The two security guards immediately noticed and hurriedly chased after her.
Tina looked around for the most crowded place and ran towards it. After all, her ultimate goal was to make a scene and force Chandler to see her!
However, Tina’s body had only recently recovered, and her stamina was still weak. She hadn’t even run for long before being stopped by a group of security personnel.
“Miss Stephenson is so amazing, causing such a commotion in the Quentin family!” A hoarse voice rang out.
Tina looked up and saw an old man walking towards her. Behind him were a few people, including
Lornell.
Although Tina had never met the head of the Quentin family, Lornell’s grandfather, she could easily guess his identity from the way he carried himself.
“I want to see Chandler,” Tina said, lifting her chin to hide any hint of fear.
She was the daughter of the Stephenson family and also the wife of the Hunter family. She had enough status to have a conversation with the head of the Quentin family here!
She had a valid reason for her request: “I am Chandler’s wife, and a wife should be able to see her husband without any problems, right?”
I’ve been through so much, that my body and mind are drained. Every step feels like a heavy burden, and my heart is heavy with exhaustion.
I’ve been fighting for what seems like an eternity, facing countless challenges and obstacles. But I refuse to give up, even though my body is screaming for rest.
I know that I must keep going, for the sake of my loved ones and for my own dreams. But sometimes, I can’t help but wonder if it’s all worth it.
But then I remember the moments of triumph, the small victories that keep me going. And I know that I must push through this fatigue, for there is still so much left to accomplish.
So I take a deep breath and continue on, determined to reach my goals and overcome any obstacles in my way. Because I know that in the end, it will all be worth it.
The elderly Mr. Quentin stared at Tina, “Even if you were to see him again, it wouldn’t change anything.
He doesn’t want to leave with you. We are letting you go from the Quentin family without any cost. The previous deal between Lornell and you is now void, which is already the Quentin family’s kindness towards you.”
“If Chandler really doesn’t want to leave with me, then I’ll stay with him. If he’s really disabled, I’ll take care of him. He can’t get rid of me!” Tina declared.

The elderly Mr. Quentin furrowed his brow and said, “Do y think the Quentin family is a place where we can come and go as we please?”
“Can’t you understand me? This time, I found out about Chandler from the Quentin family, thanks to the
Hunter family. Obviously, the Hunter family wants to solve the problem more safely, without taking any risks. If the Hunter family finds. out that I’m on the Quentin family’s side and can’t even see Chandler, what do you think they will think? And if Chandler ends up disabled or with other serious problems, both of our families might end up in trouble with the Quentin family.”
Mr. Quentin stared at Tina for a while before saying, “The deal between the Quentin family and the
Hunter family won’t be threatened just because you said a few words.”
“I know, that’s why I just want to meet Chandler. I hope the Quentin family won’t restrict my freedom here, at least let me see Chandler. If in the end, I still can’t succeed, then it’s just my own incompetence. I won’t blame the Quentin family.” Tina said.
“Old Mr. Quentin suddenly said, ‘Chandler, you heard it too. Sort out your issues with your spouse before coming to the Quentin family! Although the Quentin family is not afraid of trouble, we also don’t want to invite trouble!””
After saying that, the old Mr. Quentin turned and left!
Tina stared in surprise at Chandler, who had emerged from the shadows.
“Is he still there?”
“Did he hear everything she just said?”
Chandler walked up to Tina and asked, “Why do you have to do this?”
“Because I love you, that’s why I have to do this!” Tina said bluntly.
In an instant, Chandler had a feeling of déjà vu. This Tina was just like the Tina before she lost her memory – honest and straightforward, always expressing her feelings for him with direct words.
At this moment, as she looked into his eyes, they were so clear that he couldn’t help but feel like she had truly fallen in love with him!
But how is that possible?
She still hasn’t regained her memories, the memories they shared together. How could she fall in love with him?
Just pity, that’s all!
And when this pity fades away with time, will she regret it in the future? Will she blame him for taking advantage of her
“You can fall in love with someone in an instant, but you can also fall out of love just as quickly, right?
But how long do you think this kind of love can last?” Chandler said.
“It’s been a long time,” Tina said. “I don’t think I’m someone who falls in love easily, am I? My family and friends have all told me that in all these years, you are the only one I have ever loved. So now that
I love you, it will last for a long time.”
“But Tina, I’m tired. I don’t want to keep giving myself hope, only to end up disappointed again,” he said in a low voice.
This kind of pain, even more unbearable than the pain caused by the gu worms, was too much for him to bear!
Tina couldn’t help but feel a wave of disappointment in her heart, but she also understood that the person responsible for the current situation was none other than herself.
She had always pushed him away back then, insisting on getting a divorce. But when she finally wanted to reconcile with him, she realized that the person who had always stood by her side in the past had finally grown tired.
“But now, the Quentin family has already let us leave here. So even if you’re really tired and don’t want to continue entangling with me, just come out with me first. After we’re out, if you still don’t want to be with me, then I promise to submit the divorce agreement we signed last time. We’ll officially divorce!”
Tina said.
He looked at her for a long time before slowly saying, “Okay!”
Leaving the Quentin family was easy enough. Following the usual protocol, Tina and Chandler drank the special potion provided by the family. When they woke up, they found themselves at the entrance of
