In the rest room.
Freya has already fallen into a deep sleep.
The nineteen-hour high-risk surgery has left her completely exhausted, and she was unaware when Bradley carried her to take a shower.
Occasionally, she would murmur in her sleep, clearly still not fully recovered from the surgery.
Bradley lay beside her, his strong hand gently caressing her tired face, leaning down to place a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"When will you be able to prioritize yourself, take a break, and rest?" he whispered.
Since becoming pregnant, she has been on edge.
Various unexpected events prevented her from having a comfortable pregnancy, and even after giving birth, she was still busy with Madeline's affairs. Now, just after giving birth, she went to personally take care of Ella. And now, she has been in the operating room for a full nineteen hours.
Whenever Bradley thinks about the pressure she is under, he deeply feels powerless.
Even though he now holds supreme power, what does it matter?
In the end, he still can't protect his woman!
"Young Master, has Sister-in-law going to sleep? I need to discuss something with her."
Just as he was thinking this, he heard the voice of Hawke from outside.
The man furrowed his brows, sitting up from the bed, and said coldly, "She's already asleep. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
"But the situation is urgent, it must be now..."
Bradley was about to speak to dismiss him, but Freya turned over and then opened her eyes.
She has always been a light sleeper, able to sense any movement outside with just a slight breeze.
When Hawke spoke just now, she had a vague sense of it, but because she was too tired, she couldn't keep her eyelids open.
"Let him in, I just happen to want to ask him about the report."
After a long delay in the chaotic brain, she finally became somewhat clear-headed, but she was too tired, feeling limp and weak all over.
Bradley brought a pillow for her to lean on and gestured for Hawke to come in.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to disturb you at this moment, but the situation is urgent and I had no choice..." explained Hawke after entering.
Before he could finish, Freya interrupted, "It's okay, just tell me what's going on."
Hawke nodded and handed her the report, "The results of the syringe and medicine bottle you brought in for analysis have come back from the Department of Inspection."
Upon hearing this, Freya hurriedly took the report and started reading it.
She scanned through it quickly, but her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
By the time she reached the end, her expression could no longer be described as anything but grim.
"Is it a new type of venom?"
"Yes." Hawke nodded, "However, this venom is different from the poison researched by the Long family in the past. The beastly venom mainly controls the human mind, causing people to become more beast-like. But this venom also has the effect of strengthening the body. Long-term injections can enhance speed and physical fitness, thus maximizing fighting power."
"The laboratory doctor extracted a drop of the liquid and injected it into a white mouse. At first, the mouse was weak and feeble, but gradually became extremely aggressive, attacking and killing its companion."
"I came here mainly to ask my sister-in-law, where did this syringe come from?"
Freya narrowed her eyes and said sternly, "Yesterday, while bandaging Ella's mother's wound, I found it in the trash can in her room."
As expected, there was definitely a problem with this syringe.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a new type of venom.
It's a substance that can enhance physical strength.
So, is the reason why Belle recovered so quickly due to being injected with this liquid?
No wonder she suffered such serious injuries but had no lingering effects from the accident.
Originally, this kind of medication is slowly changing her physique. Freya pursed her lips, thinking of Belle's pulse, which was like a poisonous snake, extremely powerful. At that time, she felt something was wrong, which is why she requested a blood test. But Belle kept evading, clearly trying to conceal something. Later, when Freya checked her pulse again, the pulse had miraculously returned to normal. How can this be explained? Freya looked at Hawke and continued, "By the way, what medicine is in that medicine jar?" Hawke furrowed his brows deeply and handed her a report. "This is a colorless and tasteless chemical reagent, different from sulfuric acid, but it can also have a corrosive effect on the body. However, the specific substance it is made of still needs to be refined." Corrosive effect? So Belle's wound was self-treated with medication to create the illusion of a burn injury?
It seems that this woman is very cunning, trying to deceive Everything through such means.
But she is really ruthless, even willing to be so harsh on herself.
The injury on her calf is especially severe, even if it has been treated, it won't heal in a few days without becoming ulcerated.
Of course, after it heals, it will also leave unsightly scars.
"Tell the people in the lab to hurry up, I want the results before I leave."
Freya put down the report and took a deep breath.
She has almost figured out the whole thing.
In fact, Belle's amnesia has always been faked.
She must be plotting some conspiracy behind the scenes, but Freya is not clear about what it is.
However, it may be related to these new types of toFreyas.
The reason why the secrets of the underground maze cannot be revealed may also be due to Belle's manipulation behind the scenes. Therefore, she must quickly return to Raven Pavilion to help Ella unlock the secrets of the underground maze, uncover Belle's true intentions, and stop her from continuing to do unreasonable things. "Okay, I will have the inspection department expedite the process." Hawke didn't stay long, instructed Freya to rest well, and then left. After he left, Freya lay on the bed, no longer feeling sleepy. Bradley Chen sat beside her, moved her head to rest on his lap, and softly said, "Tell me, have you discovered anything recent at Raven Pavilion?" Freya looked up at him deeply for a long time. After a while, she spoke, "I feel that there is a big secret hidden in Belle. Tan Qiong's inexplicable disappearance may be closely related to Belle." "Hmm."
Bradley brushed away the stray hair on her forehead and said lightly, "When you entered the operating room, Lance also reported to me. The Four Brothers followed Belle to the back mountain of Raven Pavilion, but she disappeared without a trace."
Upon hearing this, Freya's brows furrowed deeper.
She was aware of the skills of the Four Brothers, and they were definitely not easy opponents.
But to lose track of four people chasing ying person was unbelievable!
Just as she was thinking, she heard Bradley continue, "I had the others continue to watch, and sure enough, they saw Belle appear from the same place. If I'm not mistaken, there must be a mechanism on the back mountain."
"Could it be related to the exit of the underground labyrinth?" Freya asked.
For some reason, upon learning that Belle feigned amnesia, Freya faintly felt that Belle was suspicious.
In addition, Ella mentioned that Belle had been appearing at Raven Pavilion recently, staying there for a whole day at a time.
What does she always do at Spirit Pavilion when she's free?
