Chapter 1358
When Mango saw this man, she felt that he was familiar.
"Hey, you! Have we met somewhere before?"
After Mango asked that, she felt that her words were not appropriate and hurriedly said, "Sorry, I just felt that you were familiar. Don't think too much about it, alright?"
"Do you want me to think too much?"
As the man said this, he let out a bright smile that showed off his dimples.
When Prisca saw them, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Alright, let's save her first."
"Yes, yes. I'll be troubling you then."
Mango hurriedly moved out of the way as she replied.
Then, the man walked over and touched Henry's forehead before frowning slightly.
"The wounds on his body are already infected, and this lead to inflammation, so he ended up getting a fever. If I'm right, the other parts of his body have also been infected as well. Alas! How much did this poor man go through? Is he one of your subordinates?"
Mango felt as if her heart had leaped to her throat when she heard what the man said. Thus, she couldn't help but nod her head at his last question, "Yes, he is. Can he be cured?"
"Well, other people probably can't cure him, but I can do it!"
"I'll leave it to you then."
The man paused when he saw how concerned Mango was towards Henry. After that, he started curing Henry without saying anything else.
On the other hand, Prisca had already walked out at some point, and she had closed the door as well.
Hence, Mango, the man, and Henry, who was still unconscious, were the only people left in the room.
All three of them were silent. Mango was extremely worried, but the man looked confident. On the other hand, Henry didn't know what was going on at all.
Finally, after the man had cured Henry for about ten minutes, the latter's fever had subsided.
"Wow! You're really amazing. His fever has gone down!"
When Mango touched Henry's forehead and realised that his temperature was back to normal, she finally let out a sigh of relief.
On the other hand, the man packed up his first aid kit and whispered, "Look, we shouldn't be too relieved because I just temporarily suppressed his inflammation. Tomorrow, I will send someone to take him away so that I can treat him better. Alas! Even the most talented doctor can't heal him at a place like this!"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Mango immediately realized that something was wrong when she heard what the man had said.
The man looked at Mango and replied with mixed emotions on his face, "This is a palace. Well, you probably don't need to know how the people here would play dirty tricks to get what they want." "What? Are you telling me that someone tried to kill him after he had been saved?"
Mango's heart skipped a beat as she asked this question.
Did Priscilla do this?
If she was the culprit behind this, Mango would never forgive her!
Then, the man replied softly, "I don't think the person who took care of him did this. You can see the wounds on his body because they are obvious, but I'm telling you that he has been poisoned." "What? Is that true?"
Mango was extremely shocked when she heard this.
The man nodded and continued, "Yes, this kind of poison is colourless and tasteless, and it can only be inhaled. Furthermore, this poison can only be found in Lebanon's palace. I've heard that this was used by his mother, the seventh wife of the king. Prince Lebanon missed his mother, so he went to her palace and lighted this incense himself. Thus, I think that this toxin appeared in your subordinate's body after he inhaled his incense. He won't die because of this toxin immediately, but it will continue to torture him as it will spread throughout his body day by day. In the end, he will finally pass away because of it."
When Mango heard what the man had said, he immediately knew who had attacked Henry.
"Urgh! It's Bernard."
It seemed that Bernard already knew that Henry was a spy that was working for her. He also knew that Lebanon was somehow related to Henry. That was why he had beaten Henry up and deliberately allowed Lebanon to take him away!
Hence, Henry had been poisoned because of the incense in Lebanon Palace, but they had known nothing about this all along.
In fact, if she hadn't met this man today, Henry
would have died at such a young age!
"Thank you, doctor. May I ask for your name?"
Well, Mango knew that her words were very abrupt. However, this matter was important as Henry's life was involved in this. Hence, she wanted to know who this man was.
However, the man laughed and said, "Haha! You will find out about that sooner or later. I won't tell you today."
Since he had already said so, Mango didn't continue to force him. Then, she asked worriedly, "Is my subordinate alright now?"
"If I found out this poison early, it would not be difficult to detoxify it. That's why I said that I would take him out for treatment. After all, there are many people here. Therefore, anyone can take action and get rid
of him easily before I can detoxify this poison. Alas! If that happens, I'm afraid that no matter how good my medical skills are, everything I do will be useless!"
When Mango heard what this man had said, she knew that this was the best solution as well. However, this man was a stranger to her, so could she really trust him?
"Can I trust you?"
Mango asked directly.
After all, this man had concluded all this on his own. Hence, Mango didn't know whether Henry had been poisoned. If this man was lying, this meant that Henry was in great danger!
"Do you think you can trust me?"
The man smiled lightly as he asked this. His eyes were bright, so Mango couldn't help but open up to him.
At this thought, Mango hesitated a little as she felt that this man was familiar again.
Well, she had definitely seen this man somewhere before!
Thus, she trembled when she felt that this man was extremely familiar. Thus, she couldn't help but reply, "I believe you."
In fact, Mango was stunned when she heard herself saying these three words. On the other hand, the man was surprised as well.
Perhaps he was surprised because he didn't expect Mango to trust him this easily.
"Why do you trust me?"
"Hmm... I can't put this feeling into words. I think that you're pretty familiar, and I feel that we've met somewhere before. I know that this might come as a surprise to you, and I can't believe this is happening too, but this is how I feel."
Mango's words stunned the man again, and then a trace of emotion quickly flashed across his eyes, but it soon disappeared quickly.
Was he someone familiar to her?
Ah, so this was what Mango thought about him!
At this thought, the man smiled happily.
"Don't worry, I'm someone that you can definitely trust."
"If that is so, please take him away and treat himm today."
Mango couldn't bear to part with Henry, but she knew that it was useless for Henry to stay here. On the contrary, staying here would delay his treatment.
"Yes, you can come to see him at any time. Here, this is my address."
The man gave Mango an address and a call after saying this. Then, he clapped his hands, and Prisca walked in.
"Get two people to carry him away."
The man did not sound like a doctor when he said these words. In fact, he was ordering Prisca around like she was his servant.
"All right."
However, Prisca was not upset about it, and she immediately went to get someone to carry out his orders.
Mango had a keen eye, so she had noticed this immediately, but she didn't point it out.
After that, the man looked at Mango and asked with a smile, "Are you not going to ask what our relationship is?"
"Well, I only want to know about things that I'm supposed to know. So, I'm not interested in things that you don't want to say."
When the man heard Mango's answer, he couldn't help but look up to her.
"Well, I'm leaving now. See you later then."
"See you."
Mango watched the man and Henry leave Prisca's palace with an upset expression.
Once she had sent Mckenzie away, she would definitely get rid of Bernard!
After all, he owed too much to her, the Ye family, and Henry. Hence, she would make sure he paid his dues!
However, there was another reason why Mango was upset.
After all, the man said that this incense was only used by Lebanon. So if Bernard wanted to target Lebanon, was Lebanon also poisoned?
Also, what about Magnolia?
Magnolia had used this incense for so many years. How did Bernard know that there would be toxins when the incense came into contact with some sort of smell?
This meant that someone had used it before!
This thought caused Mango's entire body to tremble.
Alas! The palace was indeed a scary place.
At this thought, she quickly took out her cell phone and called Magnolia.
"Aunt, when you were in Angolla, did you use some kind of incense? Also, you used it all year round, right?"
"Huh? How did you know about that?"
Magnolia was a little surprised when she heard Mango's question.
Mango's face darkened when she heard what Magnolia had said.
"Hmm... do you feel uncomfortable anywhere then?"
"No. What's wrong?"
Magnolia felt that Mango was acting a little weirdly.
Hence, Mango brought up what had happened today.
After all, Magnolia was someone that was on Mango's side, and she was also in Santell Capital. Hence, Mango trusted her as the latter could not leak this information out to anyone now. After hearing Mango's words, Magnolia's face turned a lot paler.
"After I gave birth to Lebanon, I lost a lot of weight, and I didn't feel too well. I couldn't sleep at night, so Laborn found someone to make this kind of incense to calm me down and lighted it for me. The aroma of this incense was faint, and I liked it very much, so I used it all the time. The incense was provided by Laborn, so I didn't care much about it. Hmm, but now that you brought this up, I think that something is strange indeed."
"Really? What is it?"
Mango immediately became nervous when she heard what Magnolia had said.
Then, Magnolia took a deep breath and said quietly, "I've never had my period since I lit the incense. I went to the doctor for a consultation. He told me that my body was too weak after I gave birth, so my hormones were unbalanced. Furthermore, I didn't manage to recover after giving birth, so my body became weaker. Well, I don't think that my body was weak, after all. That incense must have caused this instead!
Mango was right!
At this thought, she sighed in his heart and asked again, "Aunt, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?"
"Hmm, I think that my body is weighing me down. Sometimes I feel pain in my joints as well."
"Aunt, I think that you could do a check-up because I suspect that you've been poisoned. Furthermore, now that Lebanon took your incense and put it in your palace, I'm afraid that someone will hurt him." Magnolia immediately became nervous after hearing what Mango had said.
"What? Is he alright?"
"I'm not sure. I haven't found him yet."
Mango was very worried when she said this.
Then, Magnolia pondered for a moment before saying softly, "If you are facing difficulties in Angolla, you can look for this person. If you tell him that you're Magnolia's niece, he will definitely help you."
"Who is it?"
Right now, Mango knew that she needed someone to help her desperately.
She was alone here, and she did not have many subordinates that she could rely on. Hence, she felt extremely terrible. After all, even though Priscilla was here, Mango didn't want to ask Priscilla for help as the latter was doing this only because she was in love with Nathaniel.
Therefore, she wouldn't refuse Magnolia's offer if the latter wanted to introduce some of her subordinates.
After that, Magnolia was silent for a moment before she said softly, "Tristan, the new head of the Acker family, is one of my people."
Mango was stunned when she heard these words.
After all, she had heard this name too many times these few days!
Furthermore, Nathaniel said that Tristan was Michael's friend, and the latter was someone that he could trust. Also, Priscilla said that Laborn was trying desperately to get Tristan on his side. Furthermore, now, Magnolia said that Tristan was one of her subordinates!
What on earth was Tristan's identity?
Why would so many people and forces fight over him?
Right now, Mango really wanted to meet this person!
