Chapter 231 Why Don’t You Ask Those Dogs?
My mother explained, “Little Sancher initially thought the same, but the villager said the
persuadris were found in the location of the village that collapsed during the landslide

I pursed my lips, hesitating for a moment. If what my mother said was true, then the
discovery of the remains of those victims could lead to the revelation that the mountain
collapse was related to the mining activities conducted there in the past.
“Yvette, are you listening?” My mother’s voice came from the other end of the phone after
I had been silent for a while
I quickly responded, “Yes, Mom, I’m listening” After a brief pause, I still expressed my
concern. “Regardless, you should come back soon
My mother assured me over the phone, “Alright, Little Sanchez and I will return as soon as
we finish here. By the way, how have you been these past few days? Is everything okay?
Moore hasn’t been causing you any trouble, has she?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI replied, a bit exasperated, “I’m fine, and Moore is in custody. She can’t cause me any
trouble. Just come back soon so I don’t have to worry.”
Still concerned, my mother asked, “And what about the Youngs? You and Idris
Knowing she was about to delve into mundane matters again, I quickly interrupted, “I’m
fine, everything is as usual. Also, Idris and I are already divorced. There’s nothing between
us. Alright, it’s late, you should go to sleep. Remember to come back early.
Seeing that I was being firm, my mother did not press further and hung up the phone.
When Idris came back in, he was carrying a first aid kit. Seeing him, I did not have much
to say and turned to dry my hair and take care of my own business However, just as I
turned around, I unexpectedly heard a hiss
Instinctively, I turned back to see Idris removing the bandage from the back of his head.
He could not see the wound himself and was fumbling to apply medicine.
I quickly walked over and took the medicine from him, frowning as I asked, “Doesn’t the
house have a doctor?” It was astonishing how self–reliant he was, even going so far as to
apply medicine to himself
Seeing that I took the medicine, he snatched it back from my hands and said, “Dr.
Langford doesn’t live in the old manor, and it’s late now. It would be inconvenient to
bother him about this. The wound isn’t serious. I can handle it myself.”
I was speechless. If he could see the wound at the back of his head, I might have turned a
blind eye. However
Seeing him trying to apply the medicine again, I could not hold back any longer and said,
“I’ll help you with it.”
Without further discussion, I took the medicine and went behind him to apply it. The
wound was not large and had already scabbed over As long as it stayed dry, it would heal

After applying the medicine, I did not weary bardages as they were
necessary
Then, handing the medicine back to him, I got up to go about my business but was
suddenly pulled back
“What are you doing?” I asked, frowning in annoyance as I nearly fell over
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe man had handsome features, and seeing them up close like this was rare. He looked
more striking from this angle. “Thank you,” he said simply.
Those were the only two words he managed to say after some time, so I pursed my lips
and pulled my hand back, saying dismissively, “No need for that.”
His lips curved up into a smile. “Grandma asked me how I got this injury. I told her you hit

I was taken aback, staring at him in disbelief. “When did I ever hit you? Idris Young, there’s

Sering me getting upset, he smiled and said, “Wait until I finish before you get angry,

He continued nonchalantly, “Grandma said I deserved it. When she didn’t believe me, I tol
her I got injured by a dog while being a busybody.
Huh?
Looking at him, I had the feeling he was just dragging me into a nonsensical conversation.
He smiled lightly. “But I still don’t believe it. How could being a busybody lead to a dog.
injuring my head? Yvette, why don’t you tell me the details?”
I pursed my lips, replying indifferently, “Didn’t I tell you? When I found you, you were
already injured. How would I know the details? If you’re really curious, why don’t you go
look for those dogs and ask them?”
