Chapter 1122
Raeleigh tugged at Scarlette. "It''s fine, if there''s nothing, then we can ask Dr. Osteen for help."
Only then did Scarlette turn around. At that time, the other two dragged each other to the hospital,
arguing, "Harica will be yours in the future, but this is mine. I won''t say anything about you beating
me up today. I''ll pay for the medical expenses myself."
"Are you joking? Didn''t you just say that Harica belongs to you? I''m stepping back. It''s my fault in
the past, and I''ll apologize and pay for the medical expenses. I wish you two happiness."
"Are you kidding? You and Harica are a couple. Do you think I don''t know what you guys are up to
going in and out?"
Stuart watched the two walk away. He stood at the door of the medical room and shook his head,
sighing. He might have never been in love before and did not know what it felt like, but nheless,
he felt that what Jepherson had was only love. These two were just as obnoxious and should be
taught a lesson.
However, it was Hadrian''s business whether they should be taught a lesson or not. If he found out,
then it was uncertain whether he might even cripple them.
While Stuart was waiting outside, Raeleigh and Scarlette had already spoken to Xanthus. Scarlette
was lying on the bed, while Xanthus bent down to check on her, and Raeleigh watched him from the
side.
With Scarlette there, Xanthus could not ask too many questions, but after examining her, he
informed, "It''s no big deal, but I think there is still some fluid in your knee. If it doesn''t subside, then
it will be inmed severely in the future, and we''ll have to suck it out with steel needles. It will be
very painful."
"What should we do then?" Raeleigh asked hurriedly. Xanthus took out a needle. "I''ll give her an
injection first. Take the medicine I prescribeter, and I think there should be no problem after that.
But be careful. Scarlett can''t be walking for a long time at the moment. Although she appears fine, it
doesn''t mean that we should rx."
"We haven''t eaten yet. Let''s get the jab after having something." Lying on the bed, Scarlette was
depressed at the thought of getting an injection. She was a martial artist, but her blood vessels were
so narrow that it would take rather long to get the needles into her veins.
She did not want an injection. She wanted to look
for Deanna.
Xanthus took out a bottle of medicine from the side. "If you want to be in a wheelchair for the rest of
your life, then I don''t mind forgoing your treatment entirely the next few days, since there is no need
for it at all."
"Doctor Osteen, you don''t have to mind her. I have the final say. Please proceed with the jab."
Raeleigh also felt it was troublesome to have Xanthus go to their ce every day. It was better to
get it done here and go back in the afternoon.
"Raeleigh, I think you''re crossing the line. I don''t want to get the injection here. Why are you forcing
me?" Scarlettey down, pouting, as Xanthus gave the jab, while Raeleigh sat on one side. "Do you
want to be in a wheelchair the rest of your life?"
The grimness of the question shut Scarlette up, but Raeleigh continued, "Get some sleep. It''s not
cold here. I''ll apany you."
Initially, Scarlette was not sleepy at all. However, as soon as she got the jab, she dozed off as if she
had not slept for days. Raeleigh stared at Xanthus and asked, "Did you put sleeping drugs in it?"
Xanthus looked at her in return without saying anything. Then, he turned around to Stuart, who was
guarding the door. Raeleigh thought for a while and walked towards the door. Although she wasn''t
sure whether Xanthus was trustworthy, she would not be convinced if she did not try.
"Stuart," Raeleigh called out. Stuart turned to her immediately, greeting, "Young Madam."
"You don''t need to call me that in school, it makes me feel a little out of ce."
"Then, I''ll only address you that way when we leave the campus. Do you need anything?"
"Scarlette fell asleep. I''ll stay and watch her. Do get us some food for lunch after this. Her jab will
take a long while, and I think it''ll be done in the afternoon."
"What food do you feel like having?" Stuart immediately asked. He could ask someone to send food
over since it was not necessary for him to go in person. If he left them, then he would not rest
assured.
Raeleigh thought for a moment, "Dr. Osteen too. Maybe he wants to eat with us. You can do as you
like."
After Raeleigh finished, she turned around and went back inside, while Xanthus sat down and
fetched her a chair.
This room was not soundproof, and people outside could hear them clearly if they did not speak in a
low voice. The two did not want to be overheard by others, so Xanthus took two notebooks and
gave one to Raeleigh.
Raeleigh understood what was going on at once, but she did not take it. At present, ying dumb
was more suitable for the situation.
On the other hand, Xanthus acted differently. He took a pen and wrote, "Did youe for the
photo?"
Raeleigh did not answer, but her gaze told him that that was it.
Xanthus continued to write, "I really hope that you''re my sister, but I know that you must have
suffered a lot when you were little. We... My parents and I... are devastated. We haven''t done our
duty to protect you, and you suffered so much."
Raeleigh''s eyes darted between the notebook and Xanthus, still not saying a word.
"Your suspicions are not groundless, and you''re right to suspect me. I am d that I have a very
smart sister. But you''re also very stubborn, which is worrying. This is a very simr trait to Mom''s."

Raeleigh finally picked up a pen, and wrote, "Is your mother in good health now?"
Xanthus chuckled when he read what she wrote. "She can''t walk now due to heartache. She needs
to sit in a wheelchair, but I have already examined her. She can walk, but she just doesn''t want to."
Raeleigh looked at Xanthus and asked, "How can you be sure that I am the sister you''re looking
for?"
"Your birthday, and your features. I had a special feeling the first time I met you, and I believe in
intuition. I believe it''s our siblings'' connection that prompted it. I also have my parents and my own
DNA. Now, I just need yours. As long as you give me time, I can prove it to you."
"I don''t even know which day my real birthday is. How can you know?" Raeleigh let out a helpless
laugh.
Xanthus immediately wrote, "Medicine now is highly developed and advanced. You don''t know a lot
of things. Plus, I am rather sure that you are my sister. It''s just a matter of time. You don''t know how
simr you and Mom are. It''s like you two are the same person."
Raeleigh was silent, and she then wrote, "You still haven''t answered me. How can you be sure that I
am your sister? You said you know the date of my birth, but I did some research myself. I am not
from the local orphanage. Someone else abandoned me, and then I was sent here. At that time, I
was already three or four, or even a little older, so you might be mistaken."
Although Raeleigh did not want to admit it, her investigations were indeed true. She was not sent
from a local orphanage but from an orphanage abroad.
