Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 537
Emmanuel was reminded of a similar situation he was in. Even though Sarah
was in a bad condition, Claudette had it worse. Snake venom wasn’t that
powerful, but he still needed to clear it as soon as possible. “I’m going to suck
it out right now. Hold it in.” His eyes were clear and innocent. This was a more
suggestive situation than the last, but he didn’t feel awkward at all. At that
moment, he was a doctor, and all he cared about was saving lives.
Sarah hesitated for a while, then she closed her eyes and nodded. Emmanuel
draped his coat on Sarah, covering her skin and keeping the cold out. Even
so, Sarah was still shivering uncontrollably. Even though she didn’t hate men
as her sister did, she still seldom had any contact with members of the
opposite sex, let alone getting kissed.
Emmanuel, ever so dense when it came to matters of romance in this
situation, asked, “Does it hurt, Sarah?” He spat out another mouthful of
poisonous blood. His lips were getting numb.
“I–I’m fine.” Sarah put on a brave smile. “Sorry you had to suck it out,
Emmanuel.”
Hm? Emmanuel froze. Claudette wouldn’t have said something like that. Oh
sh*t, wait. I just sucked on her... He smiled drily. No matter how dense he was,
he still knew he did something intimate. Fortunately, almost all of the venom

had been sucked out, so he changed the subject. “That’s something I must
do.”
“True.” Sarah covered her mouth, giggling. She looked a lot better now.
“I’ll get the suitcase. You get changed and we can keep going. I think the
botany’s right ahead,” Emmanuel quickly said. That was the business they
came here for. Sarah was a lot harder to deal with compared to Claudette,
partly because they were related through Mackenzie, and partly because
Sarah would ask things Claudette wouldn’t.
“Sure.” Sarah did as she was told. She changed into a new set of clothes, and
Emmanuel took her on his back.
Soon, they came face to face with a big and imposing wall. The two of them
heaved a sigh. This place is more than meets the eye.
They were noticed the moment they came to the entrance, A pair of guards
in bizarre attire looked at them in a hostile manner. “Who are you?”
“Might this be the botany? We’re here on a search for a certain person and
herb,” said Emmanuel politely.
“You’re searching for a herb and a certain person?”
The guards narrowed their eyes. One of them snapped in disdain, “You think
you can just waltz in here and make requests, you lowly cur?”
