Leanne Graves could not help but feel embarrassed at Alex Rockefellerâs request, as her husband,
Jack Trentâs face, twitched in discomfort.
Although it was perfectly sound for a doctor to check the patientâs body, Alexâs sole reason for coming
over was specifically to treat Leanneâs infertility.
Noticing the coupleâs uneasiness, Alex realized he was a little too blunt. âI would just like to have a
closer inspection of your belly.â
âUhm⦠Should I leave you two alone?â Jack asked hesitantly.
Leanne immediately glared at her husband. âWhere are you going? I donât see you behaving like this
when I had on my swimsuit, which exposed even more of my body.â
She then lifted the bottom of her shirt, revealing her flat belly.
Alex took a closer look and realized something was off.
âMr. Rockefeller, did you see something?â
Seeing Alexâs 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.
Even Jack was slightly annoyed. What exactly was Alex trying to do?
Fortunately, it didnât take long for Alex to concur. âI know whatâs wrong with you,â he said.
âAm I sick?â asked Leanne anxiously.
âHold on, let me show you.â Alex whipped out his phone and turned on the flashlight, much to the
bewilderment of Jack and Leanne.
He focused his Chi onto his fingertips and lightly tapped Leanneâs belly.
Leanneâs abdominal muscles contracted in reaction, and suddenly, several silhouettes swiftly darted
across, under her belly.
âWhat the hell is that?â Jack asked, shocked and disturbed.
Leanne anxiously moved her hands around as she felt the movement of the shadows in her body. âIs
there something in my body? What is it? What is it? Darling⦠Mr. Rockefeller? What on earth is that
thing?â
Alex tilted his head and looked at Leanne with a strange expression, âMadam, have you ever been to
Canyonland? Or perhaps, have any of your close friends been from the region?â
âNo, I donât think so.â Leanne shook her head.
âMr. Rockefeller, can you just tell us what the heck is that horrible thing? This is really freaking me out,â
said Jack.
Alex answered, âParasites.â
What he did not mention was that the parasite in Leanneâs body had been planted to stop her from
getting impregnated by any other man, except by the one who planted it.
In ancient times, the tribes in Canyonland 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 planted onto a woman by a man.
It was weird that Leanne could become the victim of such a parasite.
