Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 531
Sometimes, it was hard to tell what was right or wrong.
Sarah then put Amy to sleep. She was approachable, gentle, and patient. âWe
should take it slow with Amy, Emmanuel,â Sarah said.
Emmanuel nodded. He asked, âSo why are you here anyway? I saw your car
when I came, and I thought I was seeing things.â
Sarah smiled. Before she could say anything, Suri hurried over and answered,
âMiss Sarahâs here to find a herb for the madam. Sheâs a good daughter.â
âYouâre here to look for a herb?â Emmanuel was surprised. âI see. So, what kind
of herb are you looking for? And how did you know this place has it?â
A smile curled Sarahâs lip. âI found out from Yeringhamsâ Healersâ Association.
Thereâs botany here in the mountains, and they have a ton of herbs that canât
be found anywhere else. Mom has always been afflicted by coughs and has
a weak constitution, so Iâd like to get a Verdant Bloom for her.â
âVerdant Bloom?â Emmanuel frowned, but not because he hadnât heard of it.
It was precisely for the opposite reason. Verdant Bloom was something
recorded in the medical books his mentor gave him. That plant belonged to a
world hidden from the public eye. In the mortal world, no doctor would have
heard of this plant, no matter which part of the world they were in. The fact
that Sarah found out meant her sources must be special.
Thinking that Emmanuel hadnât heard of it before, Sarah said, âThis isnât
something recorded in most medical books. Itâs alternative medicine. Itâs
normal if you havenât heard of it.â
Emmanuel smiled, but he didnât explain himself. Instead, he asked, âSo, have
you found it?â
âNot yet.â Sarah shook her head. âIâve been here for days, but I have no idea
where the botany is.â
Emmanuel and Eve killed Bugsy off too soon. They shouldâve asked him more
questions before that. Sarah was a gentle and smart girl. She knew what
Emmanuel was thinking, so she suggested, âWe can ask Mrs. Hedge about it.
She has lived here for decades. Maybe she knows something.â
âSure.â Emmanuel nodded.
They came back to Mrs. Hedgeâs house, but she was equally dumbfounded
by the question. âA botany? Iâve been to every inch of these mountains, but
Iâve yet to see a botany.â Mrs. Hedge racked her brains.
Just when Emmanuel and Sarah thought they wouldnât be able to get any
leads, Mrs. Hedge smacked the back of her head. âPerhaps itâs in North Star
Villageâs center area.â
âThe center area?â Emmanuelâs eyes shone. Bugsy stayed in North Star
Village. Itâs possible his masterâs in the same village too.
âSo, what is the center area?â Sarah asked. That was Emmanuelâs question as
well.
Mrs. Hedge quickly answered, âPerhaps Bugsy would know. Villagers arenât
allowed entrance into North Star Village. I hear that thereâs a center area
there, and its path to the mountaintop is through there. I havenât been there
before, so I canât tell you much.â
Emmanuel and Eve exchanged a look. They wanted to go together. The Ghost
Doctor must have gone to the center area. A secret unknown to anyone was
hidden there.
