Sebastian Brenand’s smile gradually widened. “It’s true… Dr. Batton’s traditional medicine, coupled with conventional chemotherapy, really does work effectively.”“Does that mean I have a chance at survival?” Rachel Wood asked.“As long as you persist, you really might be able to…” Sebastian said.“Alright.”“For me, you must be a good girl and receive the treatment, okay?” Sebastian asked.“Alright.”Now, Sebastian’s words had filled Rachel with confidence. She believed that, as long as she tried hard enough, she would be able to survive.***As Rachel was doing better, Xyla Quest brought Ron Batton back to Atlantis.At the same time, Sebastian also dismissed the specialists he had found, leaving only three of the top-notch ones behind.In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.After a comprehensive examination, the doctors were certain that her cancer cells had been thoroughly removed. Rachel was discharged from the hospital right away.On the same day, Sebastian brough

Following Sebastian Brenand’s footsteps, Rachel Wood made her way into the house.The house was of typical European style.It had a grand, courtly style with gold and jade embellishment. There was also her favorite type of tasseled crystal chandelier that dangled from the ceiling.On top of that, there were also her favorite European-style furniture and her favorite rose-scented fragrance in the air.Everything was prepared exactly the way she liked.“I like everything here…” Rachel said.Sebastian instantly reached out with his and naturally pulled her into his arms. “Yeah… I had it decorated to your liking.”“I like it a lot…” Rachel said.“Hmm, as long as you like it…” With that, Sebastian reluctantly released her. He then walked to the coffee table before opening a drawer under it. He retrieved a kraft paper bag and handed it over to Rachel directly. “These are for you…” He said.The bag was heavy. Rachel looked at Sebastian with a bewildered look on her face. After that,
Chapter 1035
After having dinner at Dream Garden, Stanley Batton, Xyla Quest, and Ron Batton returned home together.As soon as they arrived home, Ron went upstairs.Stanley took Xyla’s hand and walked her to the sofa in the living room. He then extended his arms and pulled her into his embrace.Xyla obediently snuggled up to him like a kitten. “Have you not found the person who killed Emily and May yet?” she asked.“No…” Stanley said.“Apart from the cause of death, we’ve not found anything. I’ve already looked for other detectives to assist Carson’s investigation,” he added.Xyla nodded wearily. “What about Zack? He brought some people to look for Yaksha. It’s been a month and a half now… Logically, we should’ve received news by now.”“Not for now…” As soon as Stanley said that, he received a call from Zack Cassidy.He then answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker.“Mr. Batton… I found traces of Yaksha on a nameless island in a cloudless part of the sea…” Zack said.Once Xyla hea
Chapter 1036
Two hours later, a black helicopter with Dragon Group’s logo on it arrived at the nameless island where Zack Cassidy was located…The helicopter was only twenty meters above the ground.From the co-pilot’s seat, Xyla Quest could clearly observe the situation below.A lush forest covered the large island, and she couldn’t see what was beneath at all.At first, she thought she’d be able to see Zack and the others from up there and that she’d be able to determine where exactly someone could live on the island…However, she didn’t expect to be unable to see anything.After checking out the situation below, Stanley Batton repeatedly flew the helicopter in circles around the island….Ultimately, they still couldn’t see what was inside the island.There was lush greenery all over the island, covering everything below it completely.Xyla tried her best to see what was beneath all the lush greenery, but she still couldn’tIt was the same case for Stanley.“It looks like… We’ll just h

As soon as Stanley Batton stepped off the helicopter, he quickly went to Xyla Quest’s side.Noticing that Xyla was lost in thought, Stanley ruffled her hair. “What’s wrong with you? Hmm?” He asked.When Xyla heard him, she immediately grabbed Stanley’s hand tightly, seemingly stunned. “My pendant fell to the ground and shattered. After that, it turned into spots of light that flew into my eyes. Would you believe that?”Stanley couldn’t resist laughing a little. “Why are you saying such silly things? Hmm? Are you so tired that you’re hallucinating?”Xyla gently tugged at the empty white chain around her neck. “I’m telling the truth…”Stanley looked blandly at the chain around her neck. After that, he looked down and searched the ground…Indeed, there was nothing on the ground, and her pendant had also indeed disappeared.“Could it have dropped in the helicopter?” Stanley said. He completely disregarded what she said and was about to turn around to look for her pendant on the heli
Chapter 1038
At this moment, Zack Cassidy and the others were like headless chickens constantly looking for a way out.Everyone seemed exhausted, and despair was written all over their faces.When they saw Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton arriving with help, light was suddenly restored to their eyes.“Mr. Batton! Madam!” Everyone said in unison.After that, Zack brought a dozen bodyguards with him and ran to Xyla and Stanley.“Hmm… Are you all okay? Did you get hurt?” Xyla asked concernedly. After that, she carefully scanned.“We didn’t get hurt,” Zack said.“That’s good.” Xyla finally felt relieved.After saying that, she waved at the bodyguards behind her.Soon, the bodyguards brought mineral water to Zack and the others in an organized manner.Zack and the rest directly opened the bottled mineral water and emptied half of the bottles in their hands.“Here, the conventional compass and geomantic compass don’t work… Mr. Batton, Madam, we really couldn’t find a way out… We’ve been going aro

Xyla Quest shook her head again.At this moment, she still felt a coolness in her eyes.This feeling was very comfortable and refreshing.“Why does this stone look so unique?” Behind them, a bodyguard was holding a white rock the size of his palm as he carefully examined it.When Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton heard this, they instantly stopped walking and looked at the person who spoke.The large rock in his hand caught Xyla’s eye…It seemed to be an original jade rock.“I didn’t expect to find an original jade rock in a place like this,” Stanley said blandly.“I wonder what can be found inside the rock…” Xyla felt very curious about the rock…As soon as she said that, the white rock in the bodyguard’s hand started to expand infinitely before her eyes.At that moment, Xyla felt as if her eyes were like a camera that could easily adjust its focal distance.After the rock was magnified countless times, her sight quickly penetrated the surface of the rock, allowing her to see i

In the next second, however, Xyla Quest’s gaze penetrated through Stanley Batton’s clothes.She was able to see his muscular body.She tried to keep seeing through him, but she realized that she couldn’t…Her gaze could only penetrate his clothes, but not his body.Immediately after that, she tried again to look at a large tree next to her.This time, her gaze was also unable to penetrate the tree.Then, she shifted her gaze to Stanley’s watch.This time, her gaze could easily penetrate the watch and see everything inside.In the next second, she observed the accessories on the bodyguards and the porcelain bottles discarded by the road.Likewise, her gaze could penetrate through all of those objects.She noticed a large, white bug on a large tree beside her.Xyla instantly fixed her gaze on the bug and tried to see through it.This time, it still didn’t work.Xyla was now certain that her eyes could penetrate rocks, accessories, and some other inanimate objects, but she co
