Chapter 1162 Did You Take It

Tyrael browsed through the medical book with a worried expression, trying his best not to miss a single word. However, after reaching the last page, he still found nothing useful and could only close the book in disappointment.

"I've never heard of Emma's poison before, and there's no record of it in medical texts. It seems I won't be able to help you with this matter, Dr. Jefferson. I'm truly useless." Tyrael stroked his beard, speaking helplessly.

Even though he knew that would be the outcome, Alex still felt upset when he heard it. He could provide the appropriate antidote if he could replace out what kind of poison Emmalyn was afflicted with. But at that moment, he had no clue where to start.

At the hospital, Alex sensed something was off with Kate with his spiritual energy. He even suspected she might be involved. However, when he said he couldn't do anything to save Emmalyn if he didn't know anything about the poison, Kate still didn't seem to have any intention of speaking up.

Therefore, that left him with one last possibility – perhaps Kate really had nothing to do with the poison in Emmalyn's body. After all, as Emmalyn's mother, how could she stand by and watch her own daughter die without saying anything?

Alex understood that Kate wanted to tie him down with their daughter, so he found it even more unlikely Kate would let Emmalyn die just like that.

That was why Alex removed Kate from his list of

suspects.

Suddenly, a possibility crossed Alex's mind, and he murmured to himself, "Could this poison be the result of some dark skill? It feels like the backlash of an evil attack on the body."

At that point, Alex felt as if a current of electricity had passed through his mind, and he suddenly understood something. After defeating Magnus in Jadeborough in the past, I found a book called Insect Codex on him. Since it was about dark skills, I didn't even take a look at it and threw it in my study. I should go and check it out. Perhaps I can replace a way to detoxify Emmalyn.

"Dr. Skyworth, I'll be leaving first!" After saying these words, Alex's figure disappeared from Skyworth Clinic.

Upon witnessing this scene, Tyrael sincerely exclaimed, "Dr. Jefferson's skills have improved once again! To think he manages to reach such a level of expertise at his age. His talent is simply unparalleled and beyond our reach. I'm quite looking forward to seeing what kind of person he will become in the future. I just don't know if I'll be able to live long enough to witness it."

Seeing that his granddaughter had such a master, Tyrael felt relieved and reassured about her limitless. future. The sudden departure of Dr. Jefferson can only mean one thing - he found the cause of his daughter's poisoning. Indeed, there's no illness that can stump the great divine physician.

Upon seeing Alex's return, Kate stood up from the couch and hurriedly approached him. "Why are you back, Alex? Did you replace a way to cure our daughter?"

"Yep!" In response, Alex simply nodded without offering much explanation.

He then headed straight upstairs, found the key to the study, and opened the door. Immediately, he began searching for the Insect Codex that he had previously placed in the study. If I remember correctly. I placed it on the desk, but there's nothing on it. I've searched the entire study and still couldn't replace it. This confirms my theory that the poison in Emmalyn is indeed related to the Insect Codex. Who could have quietly sneaked into the Jefferson

residence, stolen the scripture, and poisoned Emmalyn?

When Kate saw Alex flipping through books in the study, she realized he must be looking for the Insect Codex she stole. Her heart clenched in worry as she wondered if Alex had discovered why Emmalyn was poisoned.

As Kate pondered the matter, she heard Alex questioning, "Did you take the book in my study?"
