Chapter 29 The Backpack
As a businessman, Lincoln was not stupid.
Although the three of them did not mention each other’s identity just now, Yves knew that the man wearing the sunglasses was an Immortal Cultivator, and his strength was probably at the Qi Refining Stage.
Based on Yves‘ assessment, the sunglasses man and Lincoln had also guessed that Yves was an Immortal Cultivator, but they just didn’t know about his Cultivation Base.
Once an Immortal Cultivator entered the Qi Refining Stage, they would be the most exceptional people in the world. If Lincoln had a good relationship with Yves, he could make his own business
more stable.
Most importantly, although he thought Yves was a miracle doctor before, Yves was seemingly an alchemist now!
Alchemists were very rare, even in the cultivation world.
If he could make Yves marry Ruby, it would undoubtedly be a wonderful thing.
Yves coughed awkwardly and said, “Mr. Gomez, I was really blind before, and my eyes have just recovered. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Valentina!
“And…” Yves coughed again and said, “I have also had a wife.”
“You have a wife?” Lincoln asked.
Yves nodded and said, “Yes, Valentina and I went to obtain our marriage license this morning.” Lincoln was stunned. He turned his head while driving and glanced at Yves with an odd expression. As if remembered something, he didn’t ask any more questions and only sighed heavily. “What a pity!”
The car moved ahead, and it wasn’t until more than half an hour later that they arrived in Haven City.
Lincoln dropped Yves at the inn. Before he left, he gave Yves his phone number, while Louis added Yves‘ WhatsApp number.
He planned to have a good relationship with Yves!
If Yves could truly refine a Core Strengthening Pill of better quality than what he had in his possession, it meant that Yves was an alchemist, an alchemist who was inexperienced in life at that.
He must hold on tightly to him.
Yves watched their car leave before walking toward the inn.
Ashley was already asleep, so Yves walked quietly upstairs and returned to his room.
As soon as Yves entered the room, his nose wrinkled slightly. With his All Seven Senses activated, his sense of smell was greatly enhanced. When he entered the room earlier, he had immediately smelled a wisp of another scent inside.
He looked around before his gaze finally landed on the backpack by the windowsill.
Someone had moved his backpack.
Meanwhile, at the Lewis Villa, at the same time as Yves returned to the inn.
Painful whimpers sounded continuously from the second floor.

Matthew was so restless that he paced back and forth in the room. He looked at Theodore sitting in the wheelchair and said, “What should we do? Dad, what should we do now? Zoey seems to be really unable to bear it. She may really die.”
Theodore coldly glanced at him and said, “You brought this upon yourselves. Yves came to Haven City to fulfill his part of the engagement contract. Even if you disagree, you shouldn’t have offended him to such an extent.
“Framing him, beating him, and even throwing him on the roadside!” Theodore let out a long sigh. “I had painstakingly set him up, yet he had forcefully held himself back. Now I really can’t think of other ways!”
“You really can’t blame us for that. You’ve seen how Yves dressed. He’s just a country bumpkin. How could we let Zoey marry such a person?” Matthew retorted. Then he sighed, “Besides, Zoey’s illness is too odd. We really didn’t think of it…”
“It’s not that you didn’t think of it. I’ve told you, you just didn’t believe it!” Theodore let out a long sigh.
As he said that, he looked at them and said, “He is at the inn now. You can go and beg him. Didn’t he tell you? As long as you beg him, or let Zoey beg him, he might give some leeway!”
“Beg to that country bumpkin? Hmph!” Kimberly gritted her teeth.
“Then will you just watch Zoey die?” Theodore asked with a glare.
Suddenly, there was the sound of rapid footsteps at the door, and then a servant walked into the room and said, “Mr. Lewis, Patrick has come to visit. He is outside!”
“Patrick?” Theodore said, his gaze cold, “He was the one who came up with the idea to take the video, and he was also the one who caused Zoey to be like this. How dare he come here? If Zoey dies at the end, I will still kill him, even if the Lopez family is backing him.”
Matthew also shouted angrily, “Tell him to get lost!”
“He…” The servant stammered, “He said he had a way to save Ms. Lewis, and he also had a person coming with him. That person’s name is Mason Lopez!”
“What?” Theodore’s expression instantly changed. He asked, “Is that true?”
“Yes. That person said you will naturally let him in if I tell you this name,” the servant said.
“Hurry up and let them in!” Theodore said hastily.
Matthew had a confused look on his face and asked, “Dad, who is Mason? Is he a great doctor?” “He… is the ancestor of the Lopez family. It seems that the rumors are true. Zoey may really be saved. She can be saved without us having to rely on Yves,” Theodore said.
Of course, Yves wasn’t aware of what was happening in the Lewis Villa.
He had a clear conscience, and Zoey was the one who brought things to the point of no return first.
He was checking his backpack now, but nothing was missing from it. It seemed that the just came in and rummaged around.

Holding the needle bag in his hand, Yves walked to the door, opened the door to the room, and inhaled deeply. Not long after, he smelled a hint of fragrance, then he looked to the side.
There was one corridor on each level of the inn, with many rooms in the corridor.
In Yves‘ line of sight, a woman in a white dress was standing on the balcony, staring blankly

outside.
Yves looked at her for a moment. Although this woman was also emanating a fragrant smell, it smelled different from the residue in his room.
Yves sniffed around, following the trail of the smell.
Soon, he stopped in front of the door to a room.
The fragrance came from that room.
A barrage of voices was heard from inside, talking on the phone.
“Mr. Morris!” An alluring voice rang out. “We’ve found the person you’re looking for, and we’re staying next to his room!
“Okay, haven’t you been clear enough of how my husband and I do things? When have we ever let you down?
“The fee is negotiable. I heard some noises earlier, so he should have returned right now. We will make a move soon!
“Okay, we’re going to find him now. As per the usual rules, we’ll take pictures for you once it’s over, then you can remit the money to us!
“Don’t worry, we’ll make sure to leave no evidence!”
A few moments later, there were sounds of rapid footsteps, and then, the door to the room in front of Yves opened!
When the two saw the person standing at their door, they both took a step back in shock. Before the two of them could speak, Yves smiled and said, “Are you looking for me?”
