The Ultimate Reborn Heiress (Scarlett) novel Chapter 303

Chapter 303 Mysterious Cause

Tad’s heart ached just looking at the baby.

The surrounding neighbors were already murmuring among themselves.

“Scarlett really knows medicine?”

“She’s been studying under her grandfather since she was little. It’s not surprising she’d know medical skills.”

Some people even tried to comfort Tad.

‘Tad, your granddaughter getting sick isn’t your fault. You can’t spoil them so much that they stop coming back to visit you. Kids get stronger as they grow up–their immune systems improve.”

Someone even asked, “Shirley, are you feeding the baby formula? Formula isn’t as good. Babies should be breastfed…”

Seeing the neighbors‘ conversation drifting further and further into everyday chatter, Scarlett quickly spoke up to interrupt them.

‘Tad, have you and Priscilla been having a streak of bad luck at home lately?”

After asking the question, Scarlett took the baby from Shirley’s arms.

She slipped her hand inside the baby’s little clothes and gently pressed and massaged several pressure points on the child’s body.

The baby’s tense expression visibly relaxed, and she stopped whimpering.

Dudley and the surrounding neighbors looked surprised.

Shirley, however, wasn’t surprised at all.

She already knew Scarlett’s medical skills were truly impressive.

After massaging the pressure points, Scarlett lifted her hand and lightly waved it above the baby, as if fanning something away.

Shirley glanced at Scarlett with confusion.

She didn’t understand what that gesture meant.

When Tad heard Scarlett’s earlier question, he froze for a moment

Because he and Priscilla really had been having a run of bad luck lately

Tad said, “Yeah, Priscilla and I have been unlucky these past few days. Lots of little accidents. Priscilla keeps slipping or cutting her hand while chopping vegetables–drawing blood more than once. Things like that have been happening a lot lately.

“Same with me. I’ve got a bunch of small injuries all over from bumping into things these past few days. Yesterday, I even slammed my waist into something. Look at this bruise.”

As he spoke, he lifted his shirt to show everyone his back.

There was a dark purple bruise roughly the size of a palm, the color deep and ugly–clearly a hard hit.

But he hadn’t thought it was serious, so he never went to Hendrix to have it checked.

Shirley finally realized that maybe something else was wrong with their family.

Maybe it wasn’t just the baby being sick.

“Scarlett… did something happen to our family?”

Scarlett looked at her and said, “When you brought the baby over just now, I looked at her face. I noticed a trace of dark energy on her body–a very faint trace. The baby getting sick was caused by that dark energy. not by any ordinary illness.

“Because dark energy interferes with the life energy inside the body. The reaction shows up immediately as symptoms like high fever and indigestion.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the expressions on the Macks‘ faces changed drastically.

Shirley stammered, “H–how could that be? Why would Bunny have dark energy on her…”

Even people who didn’t understand the occult very well still knew what dark energy meant.

Dark energy usually lingered around the dead–or places thick with death energy.

‘But these past two days, we haven’t even taken the baby outside.”

When they brought Bunny back, Tad and Priscilla knew the baby was still too young.

They had even turned away visits from relatives and friends.\

They were afraid the baby might catch something from visitors.

Yet despite being so careful, how could the baby still end up with dark energy?

Where could it have come from?

Tad and Dudley started to panic as well.

Tad even began to cry, his guilt growing heavier

“This is all my fault… I said I wanted to see Bunny I never should’ve asked you to come back

Scarlett said, “Tad, please don’t blame yourself. I’ve already removed the dark energy from the baby just

now. She’s fine.

“But I need to visit your home and take a look. Because I noticed all three of you also have dark energy on you. Tad, you have the most. Dudley and Shirley have a little less. The baby had only a tiny trace, but she’s

so small that even the slightest amount had a strong and immediate effect on her.”

She continued, “A small amount of dark energy will simply bring bad luck. The dark energy on you right now isn’t very strong, so the worst you’re experiencing is a bit of misfortune. But if that dark energy keeps building up, it won’t stay at bad luck. At best, it can cause disability or serious illness. At worst… it can take someone’s life.”

The moment those words were spoken, the Macks‘ faces went pale.

Shirley instinctively pulled her daughter tighter into her arms.

Scarlett said, “I already checked just now. All three of you carry traces of dark energy. Tad, you said Priscilla has also been unlucky recently. That means your whole family has been affected. So this probably isn’t from accidentally encountering something unclean somewhere outside. Normally, dark energy clings to a single person.

“But all of you have it, which suggests there’s something evil inside your home. Would you mind if I came to your house and took a look?”

Tad didn’t dare refuse.

Just hearing all this had already scared him half to death.

And this was only a mild case.

Even this mild level had already brought them so much bad luck.

If it grew worse in the future… wouldn’t that mean serious illness, disability, or even death?

Tad hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, of course. Thank you, Scarlett. Please come back with us and take a look.”
