Chapter 1107 Hattie’s Illness
“Miss-”
Dominique wanted to interject, but her deep respect for Hattie kept her silent. So, she could only
anxiously pace in ce.

Emmanuel didn’t bother to respond as he turned to leave.
He had no reason to spare Magnus. So, there was nothing to discuss.
“Miss, what’s wrong with you? If Mr. Magnus finds out about your conversation with this man today,
he’ll be furious!”
Dominique finally blurted out what had been on the tip of her tongue, “Besides, a man as exceptional
as Mr. Magnus doesn’t need anyone’s forgiveness. It’s others who should be begging for hist
forgiveness!”
“No, Dominique. You don’t understand.”
Hattie’s eyes were filled withyers of worry as she confided, “My brother can defeat anyone in the
world, except perhaps the man who has just left. Magnus has failed several times in a row. So, I’m
genuinely concerned that his next failure might put his life in danger!”
“What?!”
Dominique was shocked to hear this. Sure enough, this piece of information had turned her worldview
upside down.
Was that man truly that formidable?
She couldn’t believe it! He didn’t look all that amazing at all!
“Miss, are we returning to Zovince?” Dominique asked once they left the hotel and got back into the
Rolls-Royce.
Hattie nodded slightly.
Dominique nodded in return. However, she was secretly stewing in anger. Ms. Zelinsky had taken a
special trip to Yeringham by ne just to have a chat with Emmanuel,
Yet, Emmanuel didn’t even show Ms. Zelinsky the respect she deserved!
The convoy had to make a trip to the Lenoir Residence, a suburban vi, before they could return to
Zovince. Hattie would then take a private helicopter back from the Lenoir Residence.
s, there was a surprise visit waiting for her. As soon as she left the Rolls-Royce, she was met with
an unattractive man at the entrance of the vi.
“Ms. Hattie, Magnus is waiting for you in the study. He asked me to lead you there once you return.”
Hattie hesitated when she heard the man’s words.
She knew very well that her brother had to be hopping mad if he was looking for her right now.
Dominique wasn’t the least bit worried. Even though she knew Magnus was extremely intelligent, the
man couldn’t possibly guess the contents of the conversation between Ms. Zelinsky and Emmanuel,
right?
“Miss, please don’t make things difficult for me!”
The man said earnestly, “Magnus is still my Young Master at the moment. So, I have to obey his words.
I am a principled yet handsome man.”
Dominique rolled her eyes at the man as she thought disparagingly, Shameless!
Hattie nodded slightly and followed the in-looking man into the study.
Naturally, she walked in alone.
Magnus, who was reading in the study, immediately ced his thick book aside, adjusted his sses,
and walked over with a smile.
“Hattie, why didn’t you tell me you were visiting Yeringham?”
“Well, I wanted to give my dear brother a surprise.” Hattie beamed.
It was clear that the two siblings had a very close rtionship.
“This is not a surprise. If anything, it’s an awful shock!”
Magnus feigned displeasure as he said sternly, “Your health has always been poor. Don’t tire yourself
out and worry me further! Just tell me what you need. There’s no need for you to go through all this
trouble!”
Hattie smiled bitterly and said, “Magnus, I know my limits. Besides, it’s inconvenient for you to move
around in Yeringham, right?”
“There’s nothing of the sort. The Yeringham police can’t do anything to me because I haven’t done
anything wrong!” Magnus said without even flinching.
Then, he sighed wearily. “I know you’re aware of your limits, but you are my dearest sister. If anything
were to happen to you, I would be absolutely devastated!”
Once Magnus said that, he gently helped Hattie sit.
“Hattie, you have been in poor health since you were young. Unfortunately, none of the famous doctors
have been able to cure you. That’s why I came to Yeringham. I’m here to find a cure for you.”
“I know,” Hattie nodded. “You’ve always wanted to cure my strange illness. That’s the thing. I really
don’t want you to stain your hands red all because of this. Maybe you should just give up?”
Magnus was slightly caught off guard upon hearing Hattie say these words. After a while, his features
gradually twisted slightly into one of pain and anger.
“Give up? How could I possibly give up?” Magnus rarely showed such emotion. This was a side of him
that he had never once revealed in front of others.
Then, he started ranting, “After Mom passed away, you became the most important person in my life!
It’s because of you that I came to Yeringham to marry udette Lenoir. The Ghost Doctor said that
your illness and hers are intertwined. So, as long as both of you continue to live, you can survive this
despicable hand Fate has dealt you!”
