Chapter 604 Megan couldn't stand being cooped up in the camp a second longer. She was itching to find Leopold. She whipped out her phone to call him, but his phone was dead.

Biting her lip in frustration, she roped in a bodyguard to accompany her through the bramble.

The bodyguard, Keen, was less than thrilled, thinking Megan had a knack for stirring up trouble.

"Mrs. Stirling, if you get bit by some venomous critter, don't go pointing fingers at me. | can't be your eyes and ears everywhere; he grumbled.

Megan glared at him coldly. "If something happens to me, it's on your head. Don't even think about shirking responsibility” Keen snorted internally, You're the author of your misery. Who else are you going to blame?" The former Mrs. Stirling was a real gem. She was pretty, kind-hearted, the life of the party, and a whiz in the kitchen. She was the dream girl of any man, head and shoulders above this one.

Keen led the way with a stick in hand to shoo away snakes.

They trudged on for ages but caught no sign of Leopold.

They were barking up the wrong tree. Of course, they couldn't see Leopold.

Megan trailed behind him.

Atiny bug, red with black stripes, stealthily landed on Megan's neck, wiggling its backside as it crawled about.

She felt a tickle and, with a slap, went for the kill. But before the bug died, it sunk its teeth into her skin.

A searing pain shot up from her neck, and she screamed bloody murder, "Oh god! Something poisonous has bitten me!" Keen rushed over to inspect the "damage." Her neck got inflamed with a slight festering wound. The bug was toxic, all right.

“I told you there were nasty bugs around here. You should've listened. We must get back and treat the wound now. Who knows what kind of creepy-crawly it was! If it were something serious, you could be looking at an ICU stay." Megan's face paled, and her knees wobbled. “I can't walk. Help me back, quick." Reluctantly, Keen supported her on the trek back.

At the camp, Melissa was up, leisurely enjoying her breakfast sandwich, which tasted delicious.

When she saw Megan, she asked casually, "Found Leopold?" Megan was on the verge of tears. "I got bitten by something nasty." Melissa felt lucky she hadn't gone along, or she might have been the one bitten.

“I warned you not to go off half-cocked. Now get that treated before it affects the baby, or even God can't help you." “It must be Aurelia's doing. She lured Leopold away to some bug-infested spot, knowing I'd follow and get bitten, Megan hissed through clenched teeth.

Melissa rolled her eyes. "You knew it was a trap, and you walked right into it. That's on you. And it's not like Leopold was alone with Aurelia. William and Skyler were there, too. What, you think they'll get it on in front of them?" Keen brought over hydrogen peroxide and ointment. The wound looked angrier than before.

After cleaning it, he applied the ointment to fight the infection.

"Let's just hope that bug wasn't carrying any germs or viruses, or you're in for it." "Maybe we should head down to the hospital," suggested Melissa.

"It's too late. She's got bitten already. What's done is done. All they'll do is slap some ointment on it anyway." Fear and frustration bubbled up inside Megan, silently cursing Aurelia a hundred times, wishing her a fate worse than hers.

But as luck would have it, the God didn't grant her wish - Aurelia returned unscathed.

Seeing them come from the opposite direction, Megan glared at Keen with cold fury. "You said they went north.

So why are they coming from the south?" She believed she'd been fooled and that Aurelia had Keen lie to her.
