Unstoppable Unforgiven (Shermaine and Joshua) novel Chapter 391

Early the next morning, Shermaine set off for Horington with the others. Before leaving, she reminded Joshua, “Grandma Bianca sent me some books, and the courier will be arriving soon. Could you take them for me before you head to work?”

Those books were all originally excavated from the ancient tomb of the Cursed Queen. From time to time, Bianca would sort through them and send a

batch over.

Apparently, the batch sent a few days ago contained some overlooked materials found in the underground chamber, so they were all packed up and shipped together.

Joshua fixed her collar. “Got it. Take care,” he said softly. Then, he leaned down, kissed Shermaine on the forehead, and saw her out.

All major hospitals in Horington have received directives from higher authorities that any patient with a persistent high fever and was coughing up blood must be immediately admitted to an isolation ward. So far, no such cases have been reported.

Meanwhile, the local CDC had already launched a covert investigation into the source of the outbreak. But there were frustratingly few leads to go on

with.

The police were helping search for the homeless man, but strangely, it was as if he had vanished into thin air. There wasn’t a single clue about him anywhère.

Two days flew by in a blink.

Shermaine spent most of her time buried in the CDC lab, working around the clock to develop a serum that could counter the virus. But despite her relentless efforts, progress was frustratingly slow.

Meanwhile, Jason–who had been off the grid for what felt like forever–suddenly showed up in Horington. He went straight to visit Jameson. At first, Jameson was genuinely pleased to see him, until he realized Jason had come with two cops.

Jameson froze. “Jason, why did you bring the cops here?”

One of the officers stepped forward. “Your son suspects you may be involved in the death of his mother, Ms. Natalie Keller. Given your medical condition, we’ll be conducting the questioning here at the hospital. We ask for your cooperation.”

Questions were running through Jameson’s mind. ‘I killed Natalie? What happened to Natalie?‘ No matter what happened to Natalie, Jason’s actions left

Jameson bitterly disappointed.

If anyone had been the victim, it was Jameson. Natalie had been slowly poisoning him, and he never even pressed charges. And now, his own son turned

and accused him of murder.

As the police questioned him, Jameson finally pieced together what had happened. To his shock, he learned that Natalie had also come to Horington, and had gone missing after she arrived.

With no one able to reach her, Jason apparently jumped to conclusions and pinned it on Jameson.

Fortunately, Jameson was hospitalized, with doctors and nurses providing solid alibis, which quickly ruled him out as a murder suspect.

Jameson was so enraged that his already frail body was wracked by violent coughing. Glaring at Jason, he choked out, “Get out! I don’t want to see your face ever again!”

Jason gritted his teeth. Moments later, the doctors rushed Jameson into the emergency room.

Shermaine hadn’t known any of this was happening–until Janice called to fill her in and asked if she could check on him. Only then did she leave the CDC and make her way to General Hospital.

In his dazed state, Jameson seemed to catch glimpses of Shermaine talking with the doctor. His fingers twitched slightly, as if he was reaching out–but he didn’t have the strength to say a word.
