The Pinnacle Of Life Chapter 225


    Leanne Graves could not help but feel embarrassed at Alex Rockefeller’s request, as her husband,


    Jack Trent’s face, twitched in difort.


    Although it was perfectly sound for a doctor to check the patient’s body, Alex’s sole reason foring


    over was specifically to treat Leanne’s infertility.


    Noticing the couple’s uneasiness, Alex realized he was a little too blunt. “I would just like to have a


    closer inspection of your belly.”


    “Uhm… Should I leave you two alone?” Jack asked hesitantly.


    Leanne immediately red at her husband. “Where are you going? I don’t see you behaving like this


    when I had on my swimsuit, which exposed even more of my body.”


    She then lifted the bottom of her shirt, revealing her t belly.


    Alex took a closer look and realized something was off.


    “Mr. Rockefeller, did you see something?”


    Seeing Alex’s deep frown, Jack could not help but feel anxious.


    Alex did not answer him but instead, moved his face closer and took a sniff. It was a rather


    embarrassing act, and a flustered Leanne looked toward her husband in resignation.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Even Jack was slightly annoyed. What exactly was Alex trying to do?


    Fortunately, it didn’t take long for Alex to concur. “I know what’s wrong with you,” he said.


    “Am I sick?” asked Leanne anxiously.


    “Hold on, let me show you.” Alex whipped out his phone and turned on the shlight, much to the


    bewilderment of Jack and Leanne.


    He focused his Chi onto his fingertips and lightly tapped Leanne’s belly.


    Leanne’s abdominal muscles contracted in reaction, and suddenly, several silhouettes swiftly darted


    across, under her belly.


    “What the hell is that?” Jack asked, shocked and disturbed.


    Leanne anxiously moved her hands around as she felt the movement of the shadows in her body. “Is


    there something in my body? What is it? What is it? Darling… Mr. Rockefeller? What on earth is that


    thing?”


    Alex tilted his head and looked at Leanne with a strange expression, “Madam, have you ever been to


    Canyond? Or perhaps, have any of your close friends been from the region?”


    “No, I don’t think so.” Leanne shook her head.


    “Mr. Rockefeller, can you just tell us what the heck is that horrible thing? This is really freaking me out,”


    said Jack.


    Alex answered, “Parasites.”


    What he did not mention was that the parasite in Leanne’s body had been nted to stop her from


    getting impregnated by any other man, except by the one who nted it.


    In ancient times, the tribes in Canyond practiced polygamy. Men who were capable enough could


    marry as many women as they wished. That caused a wave of massive problems. With so many wives


    and offspring, how could one know if a child was actually his? To ensure a pure bloodline, this parasite


    was developed. And it could only be nted onto a woman by a man.


    It was weird that Leanne could be the victim of such a parasite.
