Chapter 665
Jensen's gaze kept darting between the window and Rayna. The traditional medicine practitioner caught Jensen's movement but didn't comment on it.
Wlien the car slowly stopped in front of the beachfront mansion. Jensen carried the still-unconscious Rayna from the car into the house.
The traditional medicine practitioner was stunned when he saw the white. Epean style structure by the beach. A memory of Jensen requesting an advance payment from Andrew a few months ago flashed across his mind. Realization crossed his eyes. Yet. he wanted a direct answer from Jensen himself, so he asked. "Wlien did you And this house?”
"This is my personal matter and not part of your job scope."’ Jensen unlocked the front door with a retina scanner and carried Rayna up the stairs. Before he made a turn down the hallway, he warned. "Don't touch anything in this house. Also, you're not allowed to go into the house in the backyard. You can choose anywhere else to be your workplace."’ Wlien he finished, he continued making his way to a room on the left on the second floor and carefully laid Rayna down on the bed. He reached for the covers on the side and pulled them over her. Wlien he tucked the covers over Rayna's shoulders, he unknowingly saw something red crawling along her neck. His expression turned solemn as he reached out his fingers to gently stroke Rayna's neck until he felt something moving beneath her skin.
"A parasite."’ Jensen narrowed liis eyes at that knowledge before uttering the exact species of the parasite. "Blood parasite.*’
Jensen shot a glance at Rayna before turning around and leaving the room. He came down the stairs back to the living room. The minute he was standing behind the traditional medicine practitioner, he clasped onto the older man's shoulder tightly. The practitioner paled at the sharp pain coming from his shoulder. "Jensen, w-what do you think you're doing?”
"The tiling that's moving inside Rayna's body. That's the source of your extracts, right?” Jensen cast an icy look at the older man. "Can that thing really be made into skincare products?”
The traditional medicine practitioner didn't expect Jensen's question. Feeling the firm grip on his nape, he didn't dare to move, nor piss Jensen off. so he merely nodded. "It can."’
He wasn't dumb. He knew Jensen must've seen the tiling under Rayna's skin when he carried her to the room upstairs earlier.
However, he didn't understand why Jensen would be agitated by that. Hence, he carefully probed. "Jensen, we're just working for Mr. Zeller. There's no need for you to act like this."*
Jensen slowly released the grip on his nape at liis comment. "How did you find out about that thing in Mrs. Faymon's body?”
"You... release me first, then I'll tell you.** The traditional medicine practitioner tried to use that as a bargaining chip, hoping Jensen would free him.
However, it didn't cause the desired effect. Instead of freeing the practitioner. Jensen's grip tightened around the older man's nape. He threatened the practitioner with a growl. "I'm asking you a question!”
"Jensen, y-you... Can't we talk nicely? Why must you resort to violence?” Wlien the traditional medicine practitioner once again felt the iron grip squeezing liis nape, the gentleness in liis eyes slowly shifted into something vicious. "Jensen, don't tell me you know what it is?”
"Stop spewing nonsense! I want you to say it!” Jensen raised liis leg and kicked the old man’s calf, sending the old man kneeling on the ground. “Are you going to tell me?”
