Chapter 581


    The flowers in the garden appeared vibrant and lively. To the untrained eye, they might seem like mere


    decorative flowers, but to people like Pearl, who were knowledgeable abrent herts, these were


    medicinal nts.


    Pearl bent down and plucked a white flower, holding it to her nose to take in its fight, herbal scent.


    “This is Orgrutro. It’s used to improve lungs.”


    Damian raised his brows. “Looks like old man Simon taught you a thing or two,”


    “Let’s go in and take a look. This seems to be the most suspicious area we’vee across,” Pearl


    suggested.


    Damian nodded. “Agreed. Let’s proceed.”


    They moved carefully, tiptoeing around and leaping over the wall to enter the inner garden. It looked


    worlds apart from the outer garden. They walked along the wall to avoid any potential hidden traps.


    As they took a few steps, Damian let out a small yelp, then looked down to see a tiny snake next to his


    foot. Fang marks were clearly visible on his calf.


    Pearl kicked the snake aside and saw Damian’s skin turning purple. She frowned, took out a knife, and


    quickly stabbed the snake..


    The snake’s bile,bined with the medication Pearl administered, would temporarily counteract the


    toxins.


    Just as Pearl grabbed the snake, a woman’s voice spoke up. “Please don’t touch my snake. The voice


    had a crisp, almost childlike quality to it.


    Pearl turned to find not a child but a youngdy, around seventeen or eighteen years old. Her skin was


    smooth, and her face possessed a timeless beauty, as if she had been shielded from the harshness of


    the world. However, her voice sounded remarkably like a clueless child’s Pearl felt annoyed and


    replied, “But my friend is injured, and I’m trying to save him.” She meant to convey that the snake had


    harmed her friend, so the girl should hand over the snake to save his life.


    The girl appeared to understand and nodded. She took out a bottle and handed it to Pearl.


    Pearl knelt down beside Damian, applied the substance to his wound, and after a short while, the pain


    began to subside.


    Damian attempted to stand up and thanked the youngdy. “Thank you.”


    The girl blushed, her innocent expression making her look even more adorable. Pearl couldn’t help but


    feel that this girl was harmless, like a timid bunny.


    Damian, noticing the girl’s neat attire, asked, “Do you live here alone?” Curiously, he peered past her


    into the darkened house behind her, but the girl moved to block his view.


    “No.”


    pter


    The girl appeared shy, her fair skin still flushed from embarrassment. “I… live with ady.”


    “Ady?” Pearl grew anxious. “Could you be more specific about that, youngdy?”


    “She’s asleep right now. I couldn’t sleep, so I came out to look at the moon, and that’s when I found


    you,” the girl exined. Her eyes sparkled with innocence.


    “Does thedy’sst name happen to be Jordan?” Damian inquired. N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    The girl nodded. “Everyone here is a Jordan.”


    That was certainly true.


    Pearl struggled to find the right words to ask whether the person inside the house was her


    mother. The girl seemed quite serious and unlikely to make things up.


    “I’d like to know if the woman in there is named Beah Jordan?”
