Chapter 1326 She Was Blind
Devin was a little astounded as he looked at the apartment area. He remained stunned for a moment before following the people who came with him to Solomon’s apartment.
Ding dong…
“Mr. Akiyama, Mr. Jadeson is here to see you.” After pressing the doorbell, the person who led Devin to the apartment mentioned Devin’s name. He was concerned that Solomon would refuse to open the door even though he was inside the apartment.
There was no response at first. After some time, someone finally came to open the door.
“Good evening, Solomon,” Devin greeted immediately when the door opened.
Overall, he doesn’t look out of the ordinary. However, I can’t rule out the possibility that he cleaned up his appearance before opening the door.
Devin quietly glanced at Solomon’s wet sleeves.
“Good evening. When did you reach here? Is Jaena all right?” Solomon avoided Devin’s gaze and went into the apartment to get him a glass of water.
Devin entered the apartment.
“Oh, she’s all right. The kidnapper only gave her a little sleeping pill. Since the dosage was small, there wasn’t much effect,” Devin explained and tried his best to assuage Solomon’s fear.
Devin was still a little puzzled over this matter.
If the middle-aged woman wanted to abduct Jaena to sell her, she would have given her a higher dosage to make sure that Jaena remained quiet.
However, when he arrived at Frontier Bay this evening, Sabrina had recovered their daughter and told him that Jaena was awake and crying when she found her.
Devin found it strange.
Furthermore, if the woman had abducted Jaena to sell her, why didn’t she leave the city immediately with Jaena? It had been more than six hours between the abduction and when they found Jaena.
The woman even stayed at home and waited for people to catch her.
However, Devin could not bear to continue with his explanation.
He saw Solomon’s initially calm expression suddenly turn furious and threatening right after he finished explaining.
Furthermore, he could see a deep hatred in Solomon’s expression.
“Solomon?” Devin asked carefully.
Solomon did not answer, but he recovered a few seconds later.
Then, he began to panic and tried to hide his momentary relapse. “Erm, have you had dinner? Would you like to have something to eat?”
“No need. I’ve had dinner. I came here to thank you. Jaena is lucky to have you as her uncle. You brought her back home safely.” Devin pretended not to see Solomon’s strange expression just now.
He took the glass of water Solomon gave him and went to sit down on the couch as he explained the reason for his visit.
He was not a doctor, but he had years of experience in war. That enabled him to develop keen observation and analytical skills.
Therefore, he was sure that there was something wrong with Solomon’s expression just now.
However, he was uncertain about what it was.
Therefore, Devin decided to consider this further after he returned.
“Don’t worry about it. It’s something that I should do. You should console Sabrina later. She must have been frightened badly today,” Solomon said calmly. He appeared to have returned to normal.
Devin nodded. “I understand. That’s why I’m planning to bring her and Jaena back to Jadeborough. Truthfully, I still have a lot of questions about this incident. I suspect that Eddie might still have followers around.”
“Eddie?” Solomon was stunned for a moment. He had never thought of that possibility.
Devin nodded. “Yes. I guess you don’t know about this, but Edmund met one such person when he went to Jetroina and nearly died in his hands. At the same time, Sabrina was in some trouble too.”
Solomon did not speak for a moment.
He had never considered this. Then, he recalled the woman he killed in his fit of anger and felt remorseful.
After chatting for a while, Devin decided to leave. Before leaving, he informed Solomon that he would bring Sabrina, Ian, Matteo, and Vivan back to Jadeborough tomorrow.
“The kids are leaving with you too?” Solomon was surprised for a moment.
Devin nodded. “Yes. Their parents are now in Jetroina. If I leave Frontier Bay with Sabrina and Jaena, no one can care for them. You’re too busy to take care of them either.”
Devin smiled at Solomon.
On the other hand, Solomon felt a little awkward.
Devin left soon after. Sabrina had been waiting for him in Frontier Bay all this while. When she saw that he had returned, she quickly asked him what was wrong with Solomon. However, Devin did not answer her and immediately called Grayson in Jadeborough.
He explained the matter to Grayson. After listening to him, Grayson told him that it was a psychological issue. He was a surgical doctor, so it was not his area of expertise.
Psychological issue? Isn’t this Sasha’s area?
Devin recalled this fact and immediately messaged Sasha in Jetroina.
However, he did not know that Sasha had lost her sight. It was Sebastian who was holding her smartphone.
Devin: This is the situation. Can you tell me what is wrong with him?
However, Sasha did not reply.
After a long while, Sebastian finally got up from a bench outside the enclosed ward and went to the medical lab. He threw the smartphone at Haruto, who was busy examining the remains of the fetus.
Haruto was surprised.
He was still holding a pair of tweezers and had no choice but to look down for a moment.
