Chapter 165
"Bella, it's still very early now, and why are you studying medical books here? You're so smart, but you're still hardworking. Looking at you, I really feel ashamed."
Arabella had read several medical books. Kenneth's condition was now so difficult to deal with that she had to develop a pill. However, she was still puzzled about one kind of herb. As a result, she needed to find a medical book.
"Rebecca, I'm looking for a book."
"What book? Let me help you find it."
Arabella thought for a moment and then said, "I don't know what book I'm looking for. I'm still considering what herbs to use, so you don't have to help me. I'll stay here for a few days and think about it. If I need your help, I won't be polite. Go and take care of your plants."
Rebecca felt that Arabella was a bit mysterious, and she couldn't help but think, "No wonder she's a straight-A student. She's so different from others. The library is as large as a palace, and I always want to sleep when I come here."
Suddenly, Rebecca noticed something with her sharp eyes and then pointed to Arabella's neck. "Bella, what's the mark on your neck? Who bit you so hard?"
Arabella wore a high-necked shirt today to cover her wounds. In fact, she had covered herself well enough, but Rebecca's eyes were too sharp.
Arabella quickly covered her collar with her hand and denied, "Rebecca, don't talk nonsense. I was just bitten by...mosquitoes last night!"
Rebecca pulled Arabella into a corner where there was nobody and whispered, "Bella, I heard that you married the ghost husband of the Floweret Garden. Tell me the truth, is the ghost husband a psychopath? I do not believe a word of what you have just said. It's obviously a human bite, and the teeth have bitten into your flesh. It was caused by blood-sucking, right?"
Arabella smiled lightly and put the medical book down on the shelf. "How could that be? He's not a vampire, okay? Stop it, Rebecca. You're freaking me out!"
"Bella, I'm serious. Are you listening to me? These people are not normal people. They are mentally ill and can't be cured at all!
"I used to have a brother-in-law. He was very kind and took care of my cousin in every way, but he had a problem. He liked domestic violence.
