Chapter 705


    Chapter 705 I Will Assist Him


    Vance picked up his suitcase and was prepared to leave the warehouse while Cassidy stood


    motionless before the door.


    Vance looked at her, puzzled. “Ms. Cassidy?”


    After ncing at the suitcase in his hand, she kept mum for a moment before opening her mouth. “Are


    you going to run ab test on it?”


    “Sort of, but don''t worry, I''m not using it to run illegal experiments. I want to study the creature''s habits


    and physical characteristics. That''s all,” Vance exined upon noticing the anxious look on Cassidy''s


    face. “I''ve seen Serekos before, but the ones here seemrger. That''s why I''m curious to find out more


    about them. And the residual slime in the courtyard doesn''t seem toe from the bug itself. Ms.


    Cassidy, you should be familiar with this creature, right?”


    Upon hearing that, Cassidy''s expression stiffened. She pursed her lips, nodding slightly in response.


    Seeing that Cassidy still had no intention of letting him leave, Vance calmly stuck his hand into his


    pocket and tapped themunication device twice.


    At that point, James, who was driving, saw that the application on his phone that was connected to the


    communication device was activated.


    A message popped up on the interface: Cassidy is stopping me from leaving. Send help.


    Upon seeing that, James quickly took out another phone from the box, turned it on, and logged onto


    WhatsApp.


    He texted: Cassidy stopped Vance from leaving.


    Meanwhile, Rayna opened her eyes and noticed Curtis was getting ready to leave. “What''s wrong?”


    “Cassidy stopped Vance from leaving.” Curtis put on his coat. “I''m going there to take a look.”


    “Wait. I''ll go with you,” Rayna said, lifting the nket and getting up. “You shouldn''t go there alone.


    Cassidy may be sharp-tongued, but she''s not a bad person.”


    Curtis walked to the bedside, helped Rayna put on her clothes, and put his arm around her as they


    went downstairs.


    As the two came downstairs, they saw Robin controlling a drone, spraying insecticide on the roof and


    outer walls.


    “Did he stay up all night?” Rayna remembered Robin went to the city in the middle of the night to


    purchase the drone.


    “I think so,” Curtis responded. “I''ll assist him after we deal with Cassidy.”


    Rayna hummed in acknowledgment.


    As Rayna followed Curtis to the warehouse door, she saw Cassidy standing directly in the doorway


    with the door partially open, essentially blocking the entrance.


    “Cassidy,” Rayna said softly.


    Upon hearing that, Cassidy turned around to look at Rayna before turning to Curtis. “He''s taking the


    Serekos with him.”


    “Is there any problem with that?” Rayna asked before Curtis could speak.


    “Nope, but...” Cassidy paused.


    “Is something bothering you?” Rayna asked.


    “Not exactly, but if you discover something else, can you keep that a secret?” Cassidy said before


    exining, “these Serekosrvae came from Fernando''s godfather.”


    Rayna and Curtis were both stunned upon hearing that.


    “But you didn''t mention this to us before.” Rayna approached Cassidy and held her hand. “Why didn''t


    you tell us earlier? Is it because you''re worried there might be some negative consequences?”


    Cassidy nodded in agreement.


    “Fernando works for his godfather, and I have never interfered, but I know what they are doing.”


    Cassidy nced at Rayna and sighed lightly. She then looked at Curtis. “I know you''re not an ordinary


    person. But I don''t want more people dragged into this hot mess.”


    Cassidy exined slowly, “Serekos are harmless. They''re a kind of traditional medicine that is not


    widely known. Belle, I don''t know what you''re nning to do with it, but... I don''t want Fernando to get


    into trouble.”


    Rayna held Cassidy''s hand and patted it,forting her. “My brother will be here in a minute, and he''ll


    study the Serekos with Vance. We''re just trying to study and understand them, that''s all. After all, you


    don''t want bugs to keep appearing in your home, do you?”


    “You are studying the Serekos because of me?” Realization dawned on Cassidy.


    “Yes, that''s right. We haven''t been here very long, yet the Serekos have already made two


    appearances. In addition, Curtis also observed an unidentified creature growing within them. Doesn''t


    that frighten you? You''re fortunate because we''re here to help this time, but what if you''re not around


    and Yasmin is alone in the house? And what will you do if more of those bugs appear? You can''t just


    keep spraying insecticides repeatedly, can you? Besides, don''t you want to know why the man named


    Fernando insisted on putting the Serekos near your house?” Rayna tried to make her understand the


    situation in a gentle voice.


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    “But...” Cassidy was bereft of words as she had not thought of that question.


    Simr incidents had urred before, but the bugs that had infested her house were not Serekos. She


    had assumed Fernando was merely ying a prank on her.


    “I don''t know what''s going on between you two, but I believe anyone with a sound mind wouldn''t simply


    release bugs in the house of a girl who lives alone. That doesn''t seem right,” Rayna continued, sensing


    that Cassidy was bing more receptive to her exnation. “Once we identify the source, we can


    make ns to deal with any future bug infestations.”


    “All right then,” Cassidy responded with a nod after hesitating briefly but still appeared somewhat


    uneasy. She reminded Rayna, “Remember to update me if you discover anything.”


    “I will.” Rayna nodded before pulling her aside.


    After stepping out of the warehouse, Vance greeted Rayna and Curtis casually before leaving for the


    lab.


    “Mr. Faymon, I''m almost done spraying the roof and outer walls.” Robin walked into the yard while


    holding the drone.


    Curtis nodded. “Go and rest. I''ll give you a day off today.”


    Robin''s tired face lit up with a smile when Curtis granted him a day off.


    “Here, let me take the drone. If the bugse back, I can handle them myself.” Cassidy felt sorry for


    Robin as she could tell Robin was exhausted and could use a break.


    Robin then handed the remote to Cassidy. After informing Curtis and Rayna, he headed to his


    bedroom.


    “By the way, someone in the chef''s family has just passed away, so I guess she won''t being


    tonight.” Rayna turned to Curtis.


    Curtis reciprocated her gaze before responding in a deep voice, “I''ll prepare tonight''s dinner.”


    “If that''s the case, we''ll have to go to the market to buy the ingredients,” Cassidy added.


    “Sure, it''s not like I have anything else to do. Let''s kill time,” Rayna said with a chuckle.


    “By the way, I didn''t see Furry and Flurry when I woke up. Are they in Robin''s room?” asked Rayna,


    turning to Curtis.


    “Yeah. There''s a cage in his room.” The man sounded indifferent.


    “Does Robin know about it?” While the two creatures were in a deep slumber in the middle of the night,


    Curtis had moved them over to Robin''s room without Rayna''s knowledge.


    “Nope,” the man replied calmly. He lifted his gaze to the bright sky andmented, “The weather''s


    lovely today. I doubt it''ll rain. Let''s go for a walk then.”


    “Are you guys going for a walk? Can I tag along, please?” Rubbing her eyes, Yasmin overheard what


    Curtis had said when walking toward the front yard.


    “Sure. Let''s all go together,” Rayna said, ncing at Yasmin, who was approaching them, before


    turning to Curtis. “Can you drive since you gave Robin a day off?”


    “Sure,” Curtis responded while gently caressing Rayna''s hair.
