Emmanuel found himself thoroughly taken aback to hear this.

The truth was, given his precarious situation last night, he had no control over Snake Master’s life or death. If Snake Master wanted him dead, there was no need for him to help detoxify him. Snake Master could have even secretly killed him to regain his freedom.

So, Emmanuel never expected that Snake Master would make a move to save him. Could it be to repay the favor of saving his life previously?

If that’s the case, Snake Master, despite his terrifying appearance, possessed a depth of humanity that surpassed many.

Terence, on the other hand, was indifferent to these details. With the Heart of the Sun acquired safely, and Emmanuel’s life out of jeopardy, his mission for this trip was considered complete.

As he walked out of the ward with Alfred, a lively young girl approached him. “Old Mr. Quillen, are you going back to Yeringham?”

Terence affirmatively nodded. “Yes, Marilyn. We’re going back.”

“In that case, you must take me with you!” Marilyn exclaimed, seizing his hand in excitement.

“You outrageous child!” Alfred reprimanded her directly.

Terrence, however, gestured to Alfred not to be overly alarmed.

He actually had a particular fondness for this young girl, not just because she saved his life. If he had to put his sentiment into words, it might be akin to finding a familiar essence in her.

“Marilyn, it’s not that I don’t want to take you away, but considering your sister is gone, what will happen to your grandmother if you leave the town?”

“Well, Old Mr. Quillen, you can take her along, and I will look after her!” Marilyn asserted with unwavering confidence. Though her relationship with her grandmother was strained, she feared Terence would disagree with taking her if she didn’t say this.

“Then go back and talk to her. If she agrees, I have no problem with it.” Terence smiled kindly. It was no big deal for him to arrange accommodations for two people when they returned to Yeringham.

“Okay! I will certainly go back and persuade her. Old Mr. Quillen, please don’t leave before I give you the news!” Marilyn exclaimed, departing in an excited flurry.
