Wendy saved him two years ago, while his poisoning exploded in his body. She didn’t cure him totally, but she freezes his poisoned parts in one safe point there. That’s the reason why she stopped him drinking strong wine. Just in case his poisoning explodes again!
“You better go back to Edina, before the case here gets more serious.” Wendy persuades him.
“I was joking! I’m not here for you! I’m here for the Queen’s disease… and something else. She doesn’t seem well this year.” John replies. The Queen is the only person he cares in the royal palace! She used to save him from the King, otherwise, he would died earlier before. “For real?” Wendy checks, John nods. “I have been to the royal palace and seen the King and the royal Empress. They asked me back for his catastrophe!”
What catastrophe?” She asks. “The Division said to the King he would have a catastrophe this year. Due to this year is Purple star will cross the sky, and the King will be in danger. So he must have one person who’s his sibling to save him. He also gave me the antidote to cure my disease, but… I didn’t take it.” John sighs. Wendy laughs, “You do believe him after he tried to kill you that time?”
“Whatever, I think this idea not only came from him, but also from Zack. He’s like his devil father, they both bad. They all want to make Sung disappeared.”Wendy feels chilly from behind, she can’t believe Zack is that bad person. “Are you overacting? Prince Zack I used to meet him many times, he doesn’t seem like that bad person. Meanwhile, he and Sung are brother. He can’t be cruel to kill him?!” John laughs at Wendy back, “You are too innocent, Wendy! If he’s not that bad, then why he doesn’t stop his father to eliminate his dear brother? That means he has the same idea, it’s more scary don’t you think?!” Wendy doesn’t respond, she does believe John somehow.
“Then take that antidote, it’s good for you, right?” Wendy suggests. “So you can’t cure me then, good doctor?” John tease her back. “No, you know what I meant.” She replies, rolling her eyes. He takes a pill out of his pocket, then drinks it with his wine. “Why I think so much of it, if he wants me to die, then he would kill me already. By the way, he checked with you before!”
“Why? He knew we were close?” She asks in stun.
John shakes his head, “Nah, he checked all because of you are famous Doctor in town. He’s just being security. He wanted to marry you now, so he must check you well right?” Wendy laughs, “Marry me?! Never!! How could you know all of these here? Do you have someone else here to support you?!” He doesn’t reply, just finished another cup of wine. “And do you think it’s properly to bring me into your stories here?” She keeps asking.
“Fine, fine, I tell you now. That Division is on my side! But I promise you I won’t get you in trouble! About that catastrophe idea came from me. But for the elimination part, it’s all because of Zack! He knew you and Sung were together now. Why you cured his headache? If you don’t help him then nothing would happen.” John explains with laughing. “Are you trying to provoking between Sung and Zack?” John sighs, “That’s why I said you were innocent! How could you confirm that Zack wouldn’t do bad things to Sung?!”
Wendy stares at him, seriously, “I don’t care how you plan your things. But please don’t mess me inside. That’s all.” John feels her anger a little, “Don’t worry. I’m sorry I didn’t manage it well. But I promise you I will get you out this time…” Wendy stands up, she feels cold and betrayed, how John could do that whiteout thinking of her feeling? “Whatever, we are done.” She walks out alone. John finishes his wine, sighs, “I’m sorry, Wendy.”
Wendy goes back home, then she walks to Donkey and Coral. “Guys, lets go! I don’t want to stay here anymore!” Suddenly, a voice runs by, “Are you sure? Won’t you miss Sung?” She looks around, it’s Donkey, she is talking to her!! “Then what’s the point? I will leave him one day anyway. I don’t want to be a tool between them. We better go back and treat more people, which is more worthy.” She talks to her donkey.
“We can leave Wendy, but what about the King? He’s waiting for your answer in the royal palace! If we just leave, then we will put others in trouble…” Donkey says. Wendy thinks for a while, argues back, “Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs.” Donkey sighs, “Remember, he is way much cruel than a tiger.” Wendy sits on the ground, her mind is messed up. Donkey can talk sometimes, when she feels Wendy is in trouble. Donkey is from her master, who saved her last time. After she dies, donkey can keep her soul safe. “Ok, I won’t be the one make troubles for others.” Wendy stands up and makes up her mind. She will stay a bit longer for others here. Donkey nods then keeps quiet again.
Zoe comes to her all of a sudden, “Why you here, Zoe? You can’t move a lot.” Wendy goes to her. Zoe takes a bow then says, “Sister, I’m here to… apologize to you.” Wendy hugs her up then explains, “It’s not your fault, please don’t blame yourself.” Zoe cries on her shoulder, “But if I’m smart enough, then you wouldn’t get hurt this time. I feel so bad, sister.” Wendy comforts her then brings her to sit, “Stop Zoe, it’s not your fault. I know how good you are to me.” Zoe looks at her, “Sister, don’t feel bad okay? I knew that day my brother treated you like Yasmin.” She stops crying, “But she can’t compare to you! She’s so evil…” Zoe’s eyes change to heartless when she mentioned about Yasmin.
Wendy looks her into the eyes, and asks seriously, “Zoe, are you sure Yasmin pushed you that day?” Zoe looks stun after her question, “Well, don’t you believe me, sister?” Wendy shakes her head, “I do believe you, Zoe! It’s just, I knew Yasmin said she didn’t push you, before she died. I don’t think she could still lie before the last minute she died… Do you remember it was her pushed you or her maid pushed you?” Zoe’s face changed to cold, “It was her, pushed me.”
Wendy continues in doubt, “Then why she tried to kill you? Did she say something before she pushed you?” Zoe says with a slight hateful in her eyes, “She said if I were die, then no one would take my brother always from her. She also mentioned she would put this blame to Lacey. There’s no maid near er, just me and her. But the moment I fell, I saw some maids moving behind us from afar. And he still married her, that’s insane!”
Wendy deep in thought, it makes sense if Yasmin chose to remember her good memories, and threw all her bad memories away. “Your brother had no choice that time, Zoe. There’s no evidence, either. That’s why the King pushed him to marry. You can’t blame your brother, Zoe.” Zoe replies, “Then how could he suspect me? I felt like there’s not trust between us after all those years together. Besides, you don’t look like Yasmin, how could he treat you like her?!” Wendy shakes her head, “I don’t know…”
After her talk with Zoe, she confirms that Zoe does get suspect to her identity. She’s here not for apologize, she’s here for checking her. What’s more, Zoe doesn’t look that innocent from her outside appearance.
