Titus didn't want to talk more about his past, but looked at Yank nervously. "Mr. Wood, could you tell me whether my father's illness can be cured?"
Yank was not a gossiper. He nodded and said, "Yes, I will make a complete treatment plan as soon as possible. I can do acupuncture for the first time soon, but..."
Seeing Yank's hesitation, Titus felt nervous again and asked, "Mr. Wood, you can tell me everything. No matter what, I can accept it."
Hearing this, Yank was a little hesitant and didn't know how to explain. Just then in Ryan's room, he smelled a special smell. It was not the smell of traditional medicine, but the smell of two kinds of poisonous herbs.
Yank had been trained by his master since he was a child, so all his senses were much more sensitive than ordinary people. Furthermore, he had a very detailed grasp of medicinal materials.
As the same as what happened to Garret Chad, Mr. Old Chapman had the same illness as him. It seemed that someone had done it on purpose. The chronic toxin slowly seeped into their body. If it weren't for the money of the two families, the two old men would have died a long time ago.
"Titus, I'll tell you something important now. Do you believe me?" After thinking for a while, Yank looked at Titus seriously. He knew how unbelievable his next words would be, so he wanted to see his attitude.
Titus had been struggling in Bayland for so many years. Of course, he understood what Yank meant. He nodded without hesitation and said, "I believe. Although I had doubts about you before, now I completely trust you."
Hearing his words, Yank no longer hid anything and said honestly, "Titus, listen. I'm afraid that your father's illness is the same as Garret's. They are all poisoned by the same slow-stage poison which was hard for others to notice."
Titus was shocked. He frowned and said in shock, "That's impossible, isn't it? At my father and Garret's age, it's not strange for them to have heart disease.
Isn't this a little too incredible?"
Yank had already expected this question, so he explained, "I know it sounds incredible, but think about it in another way, maybe that's what the person who poisoned them wants you to believe."
"But there is another possibility. Your father really has heart disease, but not as sick as they are now. Someone secretly did something to make his condition worse."
Titus was more willing to believe the latter, but he was still quite surprised. He asked in an excited voice. "Mr. Wood, are you serious? Who is so hateful?"
"Titus, calm down first. The reason why I have this guess is that I smelled some toxic medicinal materials in Ryan's room. This drug is mixed with others in the prescription. Although it can't kill people immediately, it will also slow down the recovery of the disease." Yank comforted him.
Titus calmed down and understood what Yank meant. Someone had secretly harmed his father and let him die in pain unaware. In this way, no one would think that it was murder.
"The other reason why I think it was made by someone is that it is always a little cold in Mr. Chapman's room even if the heat was turned on, as if a wind blew in from the outside." Yank continued.
Titus was a little confused and looked at Yank with a puzzled face.
