He stared in disbelief. Except for the scar on the right side of her face, she looked identical to Cynthia,

“How could there be two people in the world who look so alike? Evan wondered inwardly.

Hunk, sensing something unusual from their conversation, stepped forward respectfully and asked. “Mr. Buckley, are you saying that Cynthia looks exactly like Ms. Davis?”

Evan glanced at Hunk, who interrupted him with displeasure, That’s none of your business!”

Surprised by Evan’s bluntness, Hunk’s expression stiffened momentarily. Nonetheless, he forced a polite smile and said, “Mr. Clara is very close to Ms. Larson, and we also know Mr. Sullivan. Please, for their sake, make an exception and save Mr. Clara.”

Hunk spoke calmly, willing to say anything to get Evan to save Anthony.

Evan, now less agitated, looked at them with suspicion, pondering. If they c

can mention Liam’s name, they must know Cynthia.

Regardless of their connection. Evan decided to wait for Cynthia’s return to make a final decision. He didn’t want to risk aiding someone potentially dangerous.

Pulling out a vial of medicine, he placed it in front of Hunk. I can’t compromise my principles based solely on your words. If you are friends of Cynthia, I will save him. This medicine can sustain his life temporarily. We’ll discuss further when Cynthia returns.”

Hunk felt overwhelmed with gratitude. For now, we’ll take it one step at a time. Even if our relationship isn’t perfect. I believe Ms. Larson wouldn’t let someone die without trying, he thought.

Evan gave Isabella one last deep look before leaving the courtyard.

Meanwhile, Cynthia and her companions finally began their ascent up the mountain..

Cynthia walked side by side with Liam, while Queena followed along with Hallet.

Everyone else walked solemnly, except for Hallet, who was leaping and jumping around in the woods, startling everyone. Queena had already rolled her eyes countless times,

Liam

held Cynthia’s hand and chuckled. “Hallet is so interesting.”

From behind, there came another scream from Hallet Cynthia turned around impatiently and said, “Hallet, could you please restrain yourself? The girl didn’t even scream like you do.”

Hallet was utterly defeated, repeatedly begging Queena, “I was wrong. Please don’t scare me like that

again.”

If Queena hadn’t dangled a worm in front of him, he wouldn’t have screamed so loudly.

Cynthia shook her head, turned back, and continued walking with Liam.

In a hushed tone, Cynthia shared, “You wouldn’t believe it, but when he was young, he was such a troublemaker, not afraid of anything. If Master Garten said something, he’d argue back 20 times. But those little chubby things without legs scared him to death. Master Garien had to use crawlies to keep him in line. Whenever he heard crawlies back then, he’d instinctively look around.”

Thinking of Hallet’s antics, Cynthia couldn’t help but laugh

They finally reached the mountaintop, where the trees ahead bore the medicinal herbs they were searching for. The fragrant leaves of those trees attracted snakes, insects, rats, and ants from the surrounding area.

Hallet remained at a distance, adamant that nothing would convince him to approach, leaving Queens with no option but to stand beside him. Nonetheless, she found contentment in the pleasant scenery surrounding them

Hand in hand, Cynthia and Liam walked over, always attentive to the sounds beneath their feet.

In reality, she wasn’t afraid of insects, just venomous snakes. The venomous snakes in the rainforest were highly toxic, and if they weren’t careful, they could perish before replaceing an antidote.

There were only two of those trees, both growing on the edge of the cliff. They were tall trees. likely quite old.

Just as Cynthia was about to climb, she suddenly felt a force on her neck, pushing her back to a spot more than six feet away from the cliff edge. Immediately, a commanding voice sounded in her ear. “Step aside. I’ll do it, Liam said,

Liam hadn’t eaten properly for two days, and his stamina was undoubtedly lacking. Worried, Cynthia tried to step forward.

“Let me do it. I’m good at climbing trees. Co stand over there,” Liam asserted, turning to her with a serious tone. “Even the most skilled can make mistakes. I’ve got this. With a quick, agile movement, he swiftly climbed the tree.

Upon hearing that, Queena’s eyes lit up with admiration, while Cynthia, feeling joyful and touched, smiled sweetly.

Although Liam grew up in the city, as the heir of the Sullivan family, he had received professional training, so climbing trees was effortless for him

men were captivated by Liam, but Hallet was not in the mood because he heard a hissing sound around him.

Roth women were

The eerie hissing of snakes became even more terrifying due to its ambiguous direction, hinting at the presence of multiple snakes.

Hallet was terrified, and he pulled Queen’s hand toward Cynthia’s direction.

Queena, carefree and oblivious, looked at him disdainfully. “What are you doing?”

Cynthia also looked at him in confusion.

“There are snakes.” Hallet pointed to the spot where they had j

I just stood.

Just as he finished speaking, something cold hit him on the head. He reflexively caught it and almost passed out when he saw what it was.

The snake had originally been in the tree. Liam’s climbing had disturbed it, causing it to fall from the tree. Hallet happened to be standing in that spot and accurately caught it.

And in return for its gratitude, it naturally bit Hallet. “Ah, it bit me.”

Hallet was stunned, forcefully shaking off the snake in his hand. Eventually, he managed to shake off the snake, but in his excitement, he didn’t notice the stone under his foot. He lost his balance and began to stumble toward the edge of the cliff,

Cynthia was greatly alarmed and instinctively reached out to grab him.

However, she completely underestimated how much Haller had eaten recently. He was as heavy as a pig. After pulling him up, she lost her own balance and umbled down herself

Everything happened so fast. Liam, perched in the tree, could only watch helplessly as Cynthia vanished into the dense bushes.

“Cynthial” he shouted, his heart racing with fear and panic. Without a second thought, he jumped down from the tree and chased after her, leaping through the undergrowth.

“Cynthia, Liam Seeing them disappear right before her, Queena was frightened, and her face turned pale

Hallet snapped out of his shock and hurried to the edge of the cliff, shouting, “Cynthia!”

After a tense wait, a voice finally echoed from below “Hallet, we’re okay.”

Fortunately, the cliff was densely vegetated, not completely vertical, and there was a ledge where the two had landed, preventing them from falling

to the bottom

“Wait there. I’ll replace something to rescue you” Haller was fully committed to rescuing them, pushing aside his fear of the crawlies.

However, he felt dizzy at times, and the spot where the snake had bitten him was starting to tingle. He had a bad feeling and thought. Is that snake poisonous!”

Cynthia spoke again. “Hallet, don’t worry about us for now. I’ve encountered that snake before with Master Garten while gathering herbs, It’s venomous. Go back and have her treat you first, then come back to rescue us.”
