Chapter 36
Hearing a knock on the door, Lexie got up to open it. When she opened the door, she saw Recce standing there. She asked, “Mr. Hill, what brings you here?”
Reece glanced into the room. Tm looking for Phoebe.”
Phoebe walked over. “What’s up?”
Reece said. “Jamar can’t stop vomiting and has diarrhea. He wants to see you.
Phoebe raised her eyebrows. “He’s not dying. Why does he want to see me!”
Jamar is her biological brother, yet she is being so cold: Reece looked shocked. “How can you say that?”
Phoebe replied indifferently. “Why not Im not interested in seeing him. That’s it.” She reached for the door to close it.
Reece quickly pushed the door back open. “Phoebe, no matter what issues you two have, this isn’t the time to be stubborn. Jamar said you could End medicine. He’s really suffering right now. Please help him.”
Phoebe sneered, “It’s already dark. You want me to go up the mountain to find medicinal herbs now! Even if I could see clearly, going up there at this hour? If something happens, are you responsible? In your eyes, is my life that worthless?”
Reece was taken aback by Phoebe’s increasingly cold demeanor. He shook his head quickly. “No, we don’t think that. I know what you’re capable of And I’ll go with you”
That might ease their relationship a bit.
He added, “Phecbs, can you really bear to see hian suffer all night?”
Jamar was on the verge of losing it, wanting to ask Phoebe for help with the medicine, but he couldn’t bring himself to do it. So Reece offered to reach out to Phoebe.
Aside from wanting to help Jamar, he also wanted to see if Phoebe still had feelings for her brother. He was worried and afraid that Phoebe might really be that beardless.
Phoebe said seriously. “What do I have to feel sorry about? 1 have nothing to do with him anymore. If he’s unwell, he should see a doctor, I won’t help. There’s a clinic in the village. You can take him there.
With that, she forcefully shut the door, leaving a stunned Reece outside
Reece hadn’t expected Phoebe to be so indifferent toward Jamar
It was indeed dark, but with Phoebe’s skills, going up the mountain to gather medicinal herbs wouldn’t be a problem at all. Yet she refused.
Reece felt a bit panicked. If she treats her brother like this, how will she treat me, her ex–boyfriend! Has Phoebe really made up her mind to cut ties
with us?”
Reece stood at the door, wanting to knock again, but he knew Phoebe: if she didn’t want to do something, no one could force her. So be turned around and went back to their room.
Jamar lay on the bed, pale and clutching his stomach. Sering Reece come in, he quickly asked, “What did Phoebe say?”
Reece shook his head. “She said she won’t help.
Disappointment spread across Jamar’s face. He took a deep breath. I’m in this condition, and she can just ignore mer
For a moment, he felt truly miserable.
Reece sighed. “I think she’s serious this time. She’s really decided to cut ties with you”
Jamar pressed his lips together. “Is she really that petty over such small matters? We didn’t mistreat her at all.”
He was happy that his sister had been found and brought back.
In the past year or so, he and Phoebe had grown closer. She had been quite indulgent with him, and he knew she cared about them.

Tut now, is she really willing to cut off our sibling bond just like that? How does it come to this thought Jamar.
Sering Jamar’s disappointment and inability to accept it, Reece feh uneasy too. He couldn’t help but wonder. If I were the one vomiting and needed to go gather medicinal herbs, would Phoebe care?
At that moment, Sienna walked in with a cup of hot water. “Yeah, Jamar, I’ll take you to the clinic. She knew Reere had gone to ask Phoebe for help
with medicinal herbs.
Jamar shook his head. “No need. You’ve been working all day. Go rest”
Sienna said worriedly. “Hut I’m not at case
Jamar gave her a reassuring look. There are crew members here. I’ll be fine. You should rest well tonight so you can stream tomorrow.”
