Before he could finish talking, Venus smiled and said, already know what happened. Just take me to the hospital to see Sophia.”

Darcy was shocked.

Ms. Oracle really lived up to her name… Wait, no, she was just one step ahead, as always!

At the hospital.

Neil was checking Sophia’s condition.

Lucas Jynn was worried sick. “Neil, it’s been a whole night! Why isn’t my daughter awake yet?”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Jynn,” Neil explained calmly. “Sophia’s fine. She just inhaled river water and developed pneumonia. Letting her rest for a while will do her good.”

Lucas asked again, “Then what about those black handprints on her body? Can they go away?”

Neil said, “Her skin’s delicate. Maybe she got scratched when people were trying to save her. It’s nothing serious. I’ve got a special scar cream I developed myself. I’ll bring her two jars. Apply it for a few days, and she’ll be fine.”

Lucas sighed in relief and shook his hand gratefully. “Thank goodness you’re here, Neil! I still don’t get how something like this happened. The yacht event was supposed to be a big night, and we were even planning to announce that Rayne would become the new global ambassador. Now this…

Neil comforted him. “Mr. Jynn, Sophia’s safety is what matters most. Rayne told me himself that we need to focus on treating her. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she fully recovers.”

While they were talking, Darcy walked in with Venus.

“Mr. Jynn,” Darcy greeted politely.

Lucas managed a tired smile. “Darcy, you’re here.”

Neil’s expression changed the moment he saw Venus. “ou again? Why is it that you show up everywhere?”

Venus calmly glanced at Sophia on the hospital bed.

Her neck, wrists, and ankles were covered with dark handprints. Her face was pale, her body weak.

Lucas frowned, confused as to why Darcy had brought his adopted Burn girl along.

Since Neil already knew about Venus’s identity, Darcy did not bother hiding it anymore. “Mr. Jynn, I was worried something might happen to Sophia, so I brought Ms. Oracle here to take a look.”

“Ms. Oracle?” Lucas’s tone instantly turned serious as he gave Venus a once-over. “Darcy, are you joking right now? She’s the girl Neil’s family adopted from the countryside. Since when did she become some kind of master?”

Neil sneered, “Mr. Jynn, you’re right. Venus is just a country girl who barely went to school. She only learned some energy therapy from a village doctor, and now she thinks she’s an amazing healer.”

Lucas understood what he meant and looked a bit uncomfortable. Still, since Darcy meant well, he didn’t

“Darcy, Neil is already taking good care of Sophia. She needs rest, and too many people here might disturb her. Why don’t you take your friend and head out first?

The meaning was clear; he was politely asking them to leave.

Darcy understood, but he also remembered what Venus had said earlier: Sophia was not just a drowning victim; she was being haunted by a water ghost.

He glanced at Neil, whose smug face said it all-this guy was not going to help.

“Dr. Burn, could you give us a moment? I have something to discuss with Mr. Jynn.”

Instead of leaving, Neil made things worse.

“Mr. Jynn, please don’t believe a word from her. I know exactly what kind of person she is. Sophia already has professional medical care, so there’s no need for any random outsider to interfere.”
