The three of them stood facing each other for a long time. Roxanna looked at Chloe and then at Zachary beside her before letting out a sigh.
"As for the specifics, we don't know either. We only know that Nicole went out a few days ago and came back with a voodoo bug in her. It's not an ordinary voodoo bug," Roxanna said, closing her eyes tightly as if summoning great courage.
Zachary looked at Roxanna in shock. He knew what a voodoo bug was, but he hadn't expected such a potent voodoo bug to be in Nicole.
"I remember this voodoo bug can be eliminated. Aren't you both skilled in medicine? Can't you help?" Zachary pondered and asked after suddenly having an idea.
Chloe shook her head in despair. "It's impossible. The voodoo bug in Nicole is a supreme voodoo bug, the most domineering type. There's no known cure for it, and a person can only survive for a month, but..."
"But what?" Zachary frowned.
Roxanna sighed. "Yes, because of various reasons, Nicole won't live beyond a month, and it's even more likely that she won't make it through a week."
Zachary gasped at the revelation. Why had things suddenly taken such a dire turn? He had only gone abroad for a short while, and so much had happened to Nicole in his absence.
Only earlier in the day, she had brimmed with vitality. Zachary remembered Nicole's radiant complexion when Colton paid a visit.
"Could the reason for the sudden decrease in time be related to her rosy complexion today? Did she use some kind of special medicine so that Colton would believe that her feelings for me are genuine? So that she can successfully deceive him?" Zachary blurted out his speculation.
Roxanna paused for a moment and then nodded as she was surprised by his insight.
However, it was also true that given how much Nicole loved Colton, these possibilities could very well manifest in her actions. It wasn't that hard to guess.
Now that his suspicion was confirmed, Zachary brushed past Roxanna and Chloe and left in a daze.
