Martin couldn't help but suggest, "How about we get a few people to take a speedboat or something and buy the medicine I need? It'll temporarily stop the toxins for her. Otherwise, by the time we dock, it might damage her optic nerves. I'm afraid that even if a great immortal shows up then, it might be too late to cure her eyes."
Henri glanced at the map and then turned to Simond. "Boss, if we take a speedboat, we can be back in two or three days."
"You better jot down what to buy and make sure everything I need is there. We still have a long journey ahead, and we can't afford any mishaps along the way. Otherwise, I might as well just toss you overboard to feed the sharks!" Simond threatened Martin with a stern expression.
Martin nodded repeatedly.
Henri accompanied him downstairs.
Martin held Abigail's hand and said gently, "I'll help you down."
Abigail knew that she could only rely on him at this time. Simond had taken care of Larry before, and Larry was familiar with him. She reached out and held Simond's hand. "I'll trust you to take care of Larry."
"Sure, I can treat him like our own child," Simond replied without hesitation.
Abigail was a bit annoyed at this. "Can't you be serious for once?"
"I'm serious. Why? Are you still thinking about Sean, that heartless guy? Even when you were in danger, he still managed to upset you. I'm different. I've been by your side all along," said Simond as he gently took Larry into his arms.
Abigail gripped his clothes tightly. "Simond, please promise me you'll take good care of Larry. He's the child of my dearest friend. I'm begging you."
Since Abigail was living under his roof, she had no choice but to yield to him, especially now that she was blinded and unable to care for Larry.
If Larry annoys him, Simond would just toss him into the sea, and I wouldn't even know.
"Don't worry, I promise to keep my word!" Simond replied as he grew a bit impatient.
She continued to grip his clothes tightly and dared not let go. "You said my friend is still alive. Is it true?"
"I gain nothing from lying to you," he said casually.
She gradually relaxed, but she still held onto his hand. "I want to go back to my room."
He led her downstairs.
Abigail walked slowly and finally returned to the room. She reached out her hand to him. "Let Larry stay with me for a while."
Simond handed the child to her.
She held Larry as she climbed onto the bed. After she lay down, a wave of discomfort washed over her, and she closed her eyes.
Initially, she thought of finding an opportunity to escape, but her blindness made it impossible for her to move even an inch.
Perhaps this is my fate, she pondered.
So many things had happened, and it caused her to lose love. Now, her vision was gone as well.

Sean is not a mind reader, Abigail needs to be explain the whole story starting with Luna’s swearing her to secrecy regarding the child, the genetic issues and Martin’s assistance in stabilizing the child’s genes so he could be genetically tested. Abigail blames Sean for her situation but it’s due to her not being honest. They need to settle this, get married and have a child of their own....
