"In the Sutton Family, we've been brought up with strict education since childhood; it's impossible for us to produce a traitor!" Ashley's tone was already filled with barely restrained anger.
Evelyn was speechless.
Could it be that she was really going to miss a chance to save Caden Lockwood?
"I'm sorry." Evelyn apologized softly, "It wasn't intentional, it's just... I really wanted to save Caden from the pain of his headaches."
"I know." Ashley replied, "But... I..."
"It's okay." Evelyn forced a smile on her lips, "It's my request that's too much, putting you in a tough spot."
"Don't lose heart." Ashley comforted softly, "Actually, the doctor Caden found is surely very capable too; his poison is not something only people from the Sutton Family can cure, right?"
Evelyn nodded.
But she didn't want to wait any longer.
Every time Caden's head ached more, her heart hurt just as much.
How could she get Ashley to agree to treat Caden?
