After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 964

Sylvia didn't expect Franklin's RAP to be so good. She looked at him with a bright smile in her eyes.

Franklin gazed at her with unwavering intensity, "Good."

The first stop of the show ended with barely any fruit left to sell.

The production team immediately turned off the live broadcast, as the guests also needed to rest.

"We will continue the live broadcast when the second stop begins tomorrow. Stay tuned." These big lines appeared on the screen of the live stream.

The online viewers were left wanting more and were quite reluctant to leave.

"I want to watch Poppy up close 24 hours a day."

"Romeo and James make my gay-dar go off; I ship this CP."

"Honey is too sexy."

"Terry is so well-mannered."

"And that... Jacky, the little handsome guy, I like him."

"I love the Maskelynes couple the most the most the most."

Reading the continuous stream of comments, Darnell couldn't help but laugh, "You two have so many CP fans. If you don't appear in the next stop, they will be sorely disappointed."

"The show is so popular now, Franklin and I have things to do, so we won't be going with you to Go Everywhere." Sylvia had packed her luggage, "Aren't the special guests already decided?"

"Yes." Darnell nodded, "We got Simeon first, and Eden for the next time."

"That's fine. You handle it. If you run into any problems, contact me." Sylvia glanced at Franklin who was carrying the luggage and said, "We need to be off."

"Safe travels." Darnell and the other guests reluctantly bid farewell to Sylvia and Franklin, who also began preparing their luggage to head to the beach.

The show released some teaser clips on Twitter, which caused quite a stir.

"What? Simeon is coming?" This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

"No way, the Maskelynes aren't participating anymore?"

"I don't want them to leave."

"Come on, they're busy people; they can't stay on a reality show all the time."

"Looking forward to seeing Simeon."

Meanwhile, Sylvia and Franklin were already seated on their return flight.

After four hours in the air, they landed smoothly.

By the time they got back home from the airport, it was past midnight.

Even at such a late hour, Jasper reported the findings of the past two days, "Those men in black were foreign mercenaries. We are still investigating who hired them. Their mercenary group

disbanded recently after their leader was assassinated, so they've been scrambling to make money."

Sylvia's eyes flashed with sharpness before calming down, "Looks like whoever wants us dead paid a good sum!"

After all, cross-border assignments don't come cheap.

"I will find out who hired them. Please give me a bit more time." Jasper bowed his head low.

"It's late; you should rest too." Franklin waved him off, and Jasper quickly withdrew.

The room fell silent. Franklin suddenly stood up, hands on the table, lowering his body to get closer to Sylvia.

The two could almost feel each other's warm breaths; this was an exceptionally intimate posture.

"How about... we try again?" The man's lips lightly brushed against the woman's earlobe.

The magnetic sound of his voice in her ear made Sylvia's ears flush red, "Mm, let me?"

Franklin's eyes narrowed, his thin lips finding their way to her red ones with precision, "Okay."

She seldom took the initiative; the suggestion this time certainly stirred his anticipation.

Sylvia pushed him down onto the bed, "Mr. Maskelyne, are you ready?"

She smiled seductively like a fairy, her pale fingers lightly tapping on his chest, her alluring gaze making her even more incredibly beautiful.

Franklin's sexy Adam's apple moved involuntarily up and down, but...

Ten minutes later, his body was still disappointingly unresponsive.

Twenty minutes later, his hoarse voice carried a hint of frustration, "Forget it, it's not working."

Speaking of his failure made his throat dry. He looked away in suffering, not daring to meet her gaze.

Sylvia wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her face on his chest, listening to his speeding heartbeat, softly comforting him, "It's okay, first thing in the morning, we'll go to the hospital."

Franklin's body froze, then he heard her soft voice again, "I've already arranged for Jasper to notify all the doctors and nurses in the andrology department to take a half-day off."

"I will personally help you with the examination," Sylvia whispered, "No one else will know."

Franklin felt deeply pained, very agitated, yet had nothing to say.

As a man, being impotent… if word got out, it would be a huge joke in the city.

More than just losing face, what mattered most was losing the ability to make his woman happy in the future. He wouldn't even be considered a man anymore.

He took a deep breath; he knew that going to the doctor was the only way out, but the psychological barrier was hard to overcome.

He never expected a day would come when he had to get an andrological examination…

Because he couldn't perform!

His pride was utterly trampled by the poison called "Countless Love Ties."

"Let's sleep." He lay down on the bed first and closed his eyes.

Sylvia watched his dejected face, feeling a twinge of pain in her heart.

She wanted to say something comforting but ultimately said nothing.

Speaking too much could be counterproductive; the most important thing now was to see a doctor and get treatment.

The next early morning, misty rain drizzled and made the roads slick.

Without breakfast, Franklin and Sylvia arrived at the city's First People's Hospital.

Jasper, curious and observing them both, thought they looked fine. Why did they need to go to the hospital?

While he was pondering, Sylvia and Franklin entered the elevator, and Sylvia pressed the button for the andrology floor, 5th floor.

Jasper furrowed his eyebrows. The 5th floor? Isn't that the andrology department?

Why would they go to the 5th floor? Could it be that the young master has an issue with his manhood?

His mind raced, but he dared not voice anything.

On the other hand, his curiosity peaked.

When the elevator doors opened, the trio stepped out.

Jasper looked around and was shocked to find the entire 5th floor deserted, without a single medical staff member.

What's going on?

He was still puzzled when he saw Sylvia leading Franklin to the examination room. She calmly instructed, "Watch over this place. Don't let anyone come in."

Jasper instinctively responded, "Oh, okay."

His eyes widened, focusing on Franklin's straight-backed figure. No way, no way?

The young master actually has a problem?

So they need an examination?

This… is just too cruel.

Though shocked, he dared not make a sound.

His mind ran wild. Was it because of the young master's sperm quality that they haven't conceived all these years?

Such a notion made Jasper's heartbeat quicken.

Otherwise, how would one explain the lady's constant inability to get pregnant… If it were the lady's problem, they would be at the gynecology department right now, not andrology!

Jasper sat in a chair, lost in thoughts, not knowing how much time had passed when the examination room door opened.

Franklin walked out, with Sylvia following behind, holding a report – was it the examination result?

Getting up quickly, Jasper dared not ask anything, silently following them.

He heard Sylvia's cool voice, "Let's go draw some blood for a test. Physically, you seem fine; I want to check if there's residual poison in your blood. My biggest fear is…"

"What?" Franklin's long, narrow eyes fixed on her.

"The Countless Love Ties poison is hard to counteract. I fear it might cause gradual degradation of your bodily functions, ultimately leading to organ failure. Starting with this particular dysfunction, then perhaps blindness or deafness, followed by the loss of all senses, and eventually complete bodily breakdown, similar to an infection."

Sylvia sighed, "I hope it doesn't come to that."

Jasper gaped at Franklin, almost popping his eyes out, his voice tinged with tears, "Young master!"

"You're poisoned? You could die?"

Franklin frowned, tightly pursing his lips into a line, speaking slowly, "I'm not dead yet! Stop talking about it!"

Jasper shelved his gloomy expression but still looked worriedly at Sylvia, "Madam, is there really no cure?"

Sylvia shook her head, "No antidote for now. Some of the poison was neutralized; these are the aftereffects."

Even the Blood Medical Sect couldn't completely neutralize the Countless Love Ties poison for now, neither could she.

Countless Love Ties was indeed as troublesome as its name suggested, hard to handle.

She couldn't just watch Franklin deteriorate bit by bit.

"Countless Love Ties is allegedly one of the three major poisons developed by the ZZ organization. There's a master behind their group who creates poisons with exceedingly low chances of being

antidoted. So… we can't yet conclude with certainty that those who attacked us were from the ZZ organization without evidence. Guessing based solely on this poison is too hasty."

Sylvia spoke as she and Franklin entered the elevator, with Jasper following.

"Let's test for residual poison levels in the blood first."

After spending the morning in the hospital, the three finally left.

"There's still 20% residual poison, but this 20% is lethal enough."

They were now at a restaurant near the hospital, but Sylvia had no appetite.

The Countless Love Ties poison loomed over her like a mountain.

Franklin clasped her small hand with his large one, "It's okay, at least we know the cause of my dysfunction. Detoxification has to be gradual."

But Sylvia wasn't as optimistic. Countless Love Ties would slowly erode a person's body and heart until all organs failed.

She couldn't just watch Franklin disappear bit by bit, eaten away by poison. It was too cruel! The thought of that scene made her heartache unbearable.
