My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 899

Ernest had promised to give him the Book of Herbs, and Theodore also agreed to that, but Theodore didn’t say that he wouldn’t kill Gideon to silent him after he left here with the book.

For the sake of so many treasures stored in the Turner family treasure trove, Theodore had already decided that this was his trajectory of action.

Gideon tried to drop his shocked gaze, and he said obediently, “There’s a mark on the cover of the book. As long as I touch it, I can recognize the mark in an instant.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing that, the murderous intent in Theodore’s eyes slightly diminished.

If it was only the outer cover getting touched, the inner contents of the book wouldn’t be seen. That would also mean that the secret hidden within wouldn’t leak out too.

That made Gideon not so threatening anymore.

Theodore replied, “If that’s the case, you can start looking for it.”

Although he was really curious about the items inside the vault and hoped to browse all those books and documents stored here, but the matter at hand now was to deal with Gideon and make him leave this place.

As for the vault, he had all the time in the world to discover everything within slowly.

Gideon finally got his permission, and began to start to search for the book from the book shelves. He was very purposeful with his find as he ignored all the files and went straight for books that were thick.

It seemed like he was very focused on finding The Book of Herbs.

Theodore didn’t let his guard down as he followed Gideon closely, just inches behind him, to keep watching over him.

Ernest was standing not far away. He had no interest in such books or information.

He was loitering in the area with Florence, and they looked like they were just taking a stroll.

They were relaxed.

Theodore saw the couple strolling around and said nothing about it. It was best if the couple didn’t see this information. In his best interest, he wanted these secrets to be held only within his hands.

The room that housed these book shelves was huge, and around this room there were about seven or eight more rooms.

The whole place looked like a maze, and it was so vast that one could start an adventure in it.

The other rooms contained books of the same kind, and those books were stacked and pressed closely together. There was nothing particularly special about it.

However, in one of the rooms, something caught Ernest’s attention.

There weren’t any books here, but instead there was a moderate sized fountain pond in it. Emitting from it were wisps of warm steam, which made this particular room heated.

What was even more surprising was the fact that on the edge of the pond, in a semi-closed-off place, there were red-colored plants.

The red looked like blood, and it made those plants look bustling with life. The stem soared into the air, and at the end of it there was a budding flower.

The flower was on the verge of blossoming.

“This is…”

Florence stared at the plant wide-eyed with shock. She couldn’t hide her amazement and disbelief to the point that her voice was even trembling slightly, “Is this Yelo?”

They had found the Magolia Lilliflora and Cocos one after another, and they were left with only the last remaining medicine. That medicine was precisely the Yelo.

They couldn’t locate this particular medicine for a long time.

They didn’t expect that it would suddenly appear here when they had scoured everywhere in vain.

Florence almost couldn’t believe her eyes. She jogged towards the fountain and stared at the stalks of reddish, fiery plants with excitement.

They looked exactly the same as the photos of Yelos that Collin had shown her before.

A hint of excitement flashed across Ernest’s face. He walked to where Florence stood, and he too was staring at the plants near his feet, unable to drop his gaze.

His breathing was heavy, as if he was trying his best to restrain the exhilaration in his chest.

He was only able to speak after some time, “This is indeed the Yelo.”

After getting confirmation from Ernest, Florence immediately jumped up in joy, and she wrapped her arms around Ernest’s neck.
