LUNA THE CAPTIVE HEALER novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45

Hazel’s POV:

The Omega maid’s mouth gaped wide enough to fit an egg.

When she came up just now, there was clearly only Miss Caroline alone in the bathroom…

And right now, I was practically sprawled all over Vincent..

As soon as I looked up, I met two pairs of eyes at the doorway that were clearly enjoying the drama.

Vincent’s brow furrowed tightly–he must have hit hard–but the next second, when he saw Xander Wentworth and the maid’s shocked expressions, he immediately tried to explain:

“It’s not what it looks like, Grandpa… Don’t misunderstand…”

My face was also somewhat flushed as I tried to speak as calmly as possible: “The bathroom is a bit slippery…”

Xander coughed and immediately turned around, muttering: “Oh my, I didn’t see anything, didn’t see anything at all.”

I climbed off Vincent, stood up, patted the dust off my clothes, and straightened them up.

Seeing Vincent’s “I’m so innocent” expression from the corner of my eye, I immediately got angry and kicked him.

He didn’t make a sound after I kicked him, instead looking at me pitifully, making my teeth itch with annoyance.

This man really knew how to act.

Ten minutes later.

I sat in the reception hall, Vincent had also changed clothes and sat across from me.

The atmosphere… it would be a lie to say it wasn’t awkward.

Vincent coughed lightly, touched his nose, using the back of his hand to hide the smile he couldn’t suppress at the corner of his lips.

I was mentally calculating–should I explain or not?

Should I say I went to use the bathroom, ran into him showering, and saw everything? Who would believe that?

No, that wasn’t the point.

I pressed my lips together, looked at Xander Wentworth in front of me, and finally spoke.

“About your condition, I collected some samples when you had your last episode and did some research.”

I paused.

Both Xander and Vincent looked at me seriously, waiting for me to continue.

Your illness…“I looked at Xander, lips curving slightly, “I can cure it.”

I saw Vincent’s expression change, his eyes immediately lighting up.

Xander Wentworth also sat up straight with excitement: “Really? You can really cure it?”

I nodded.

“However, the treatment process might be somewhat uncomfortable, requiring your endurance. And you must strictly follow medical orders–if you violate them, I’ll immediately terminate treatment. This illness can’t be cured in a day or two; it needs a period of treatment. So during treatment, you must stay in Moon Shadow City.”

Xander said excitedly: “Don’t worry, I’m retired anyway, so I can stay put peacefully.”

I hummed softly in acknowledgment, hesitated briefly, then asked:

“This illness–you’re not the only one who has it, right?”

The two exchanged glances.

Xander nodded and sighed: “I’m fortunate… at least, I’m still alive.”

I smiled faintly, but my heart already understood.

“What about the unfortunate ones?”

“They died horribly.” Xander’s eyes darkened, his tone low: “I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”

“If it’s a communicable disease, that means it’s related to the environment.” I said softly, “But that’s not the most important thing right now. For now, let’s cure your illness first.”

As for more details… I didn’t want to know for the time being.

Vincent looked at me quietly, something unreadable flickering in his eyes.

Xander also examined me with a complex gaze.

I ignored them, taking tools from my portable case and laying them out on the table one by one.

“Draw the curtains. The treatment process cannot be exposed to light.”
