Luke's subordinate rushed forward, gripping Mable's chin and sealing her mouth with tape.Mable widened her eyes, staring at Blair. A hoarse roar tried to escape her throat. “No, Blair, don't! Don't listen to him!”"Mabes, don't be afraid. Close your eyes, and it'll be over soon." Blair took the dagger and looked at Mable not far away. Mable shook her head desperately as tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.Luke watched them with a look of amusement. "Truly touching."He looked at Blair, slightly lifting his chin. "My good son, let's begin. I promise to keep my word this time. Once you're dead, I'll let Mable go."Blair looked at the dagger in his hand and laughed. "Aren't you afraid I'll use this dagger to kill you?"Luke raised an eyebrow. "Heh… Unless you want her to die.""Master Blair, you can act now!" At that moment, a voice came through Blair's earpiece.A glint of fierceness flashed in Blair's eyes. "Neither Mable nor I will die today!" As the words fell, B
Blair's face turned pale. “Mabes, what's happening to you?""Boss!" Hugh hurriedly ran over. His face turned terrified as he looked at Mable's condition.Blair suddenly realized what had happened and looked at the fallen Luke. "Luke, what did you do to Mabes?"Luke's hand was still pinned to the ground, a pool of blood beneath him. He looked at Blair with a triumphant posture, laughing heartily. "Blair, didn’t I say you haven't won? How could I let you win over me?!"Even if Luke had to sacrifice his life, Blair would ensure Luke suffered for a lifetime!Hugh rushed to Luke's side, grabbing his hair fiercely. "Tell me, what have you done?"Luke spat out a mouthful of blood, eyes filled with madness. "I'll tell you. It’s poison. Twenty milliliters, enough to end her life."Blair's pupils dilated, holding Mable's icy hand against his face. His eyes filled with endless fear. "Antidote. Where's the antidote?"Hugh squeezed Luke's neck, impatient. "Hand over the antidote!""Antidot
"Master Blair, I’m truly sorry. Despite pumping her stomach and performing a series of emergency measures for your wife, the poisoning has deeply affected her. Currently, her organs are in a state of failure. You need to be mentally prepared. With her current condition, she probably..."Everyone looked at the doctor, waiting for him to complete his sentence.The doctor paused, his face filled with sorrow. "She probably has, at most, one month left to live."As soon as the doctor finished speaking, the entire hallway fell into silence.Blair stared blankly at the doctor, trying to process what he had just heard."At most... one month?"Kyle looked at Blair. At that moment, he only had one thought, ‘If Mable were to die, he would be finished!’Hugh was the first to react. He hurried forward and seized the doctor's collar. "What do you mean? What does 'at most, one month' mean? Since there's still one month, find a way to save her!"The doctor quickly responded. "Sir, please calm
After Fowler Enterprise went bankrupt and Luke was imprisoned, Blair completely eradicated his influence.When Luke escaped from the mental hospital, both the police and Blair’s men searched for him. However, he seemed to have disappeared without a trace, as if he evaporated from the earth.Now, he suddenly reappeared and caused such a disturbance. It was clear that he was not working alone.Who sent the subordinates to him, secretly protecting him from being found?It seemed that there was someone still helping Luke from the shadows. What happened this time proved that all these threats must be eliminated!“Where’s Luke being held?” Kyle asked.“In the basement of a villa in the suburbs.”Kyle said, “I’ll head there now. Call me if anything comes up.”“Okay.”...Tracey arrived at the hospital early and cried outside the ICU for a long time when she learned about Mable’s condition.She could not accept this reality and pleaded with the doctors to do everything possible to s
Mable wanted to say something, but Blair interrupted her. “Your throat is hurt, Mabes. Rest, don’t talk.”The toxicity of the poison was too strong and burned her throat.Mable looked at Blair’s worried expression and nodded.She was too weak at the moment and could not even check her own condition. She did not know whether she could survive or not.Blair used a wet cloth to wipe her dry lips and said gently, “Don’t worry, Mabes. Spike and Nicki are doing well at home. Tracey will take good care of them. All you have to focus on is getting better. I’ll always be with you.”Mable looked at him and moved her lips.In the past, to communicate with Spike, Blair had deliberately learned how to lip-read. Thus, even though Mable did not speak, he could understand what she was saying.“I’ll stay strong,” she mouthed.“I’ll stay strong for you and the children…”Blair gripped her hand and pressed a tender kiss on the back of it, his eyes filled with love.“Thank you, Mabes...”Mable,
Kyle paused and rephrased, “Who did you contact after leaving the mental hospital? Or did anyone contact you?”This time, there was finally a slight movement in Luke’s vacant eyes. “He... contacted me...”“Who is he?”“East Erebar... Stephen...”Kyle’s expression changed as he clenched his fists. “Do you have his number?”“No... number... He... contacted me...”Arthur stood behind Kyle. When he heard Luke mention the words ‘East Erebar’ and ‘Stephen’, he instantly paled.He clenched his fists tightly and stared at Luke as if his eyes could pierce a hole through Luke.Kyle finished his questioning and was ready to leave.Before leaving, he glanced at Arthur and said, “I’ll have to trouble you to keep an eye on him here for now. He’s still useful. Don’t let him die.”“Don’t worry, Mr. Goodman. I know.”After Kyle left, Arthur walked up to Luke with bloodshot eyes. “Luke Fowler, you deserve to die!”Just then, his phone rang.Arthur picked up the phone and saw a number starti
After leaving the basement, Kyle went to the hospital.Mable had been transferred from the ICU to a VIP ward, with Blair guarding her closely.“Luke confessed. Someone from East Erebar contacted him after he escaped from the mental hospital. He mentioned that the person who contacted him was working for Stephen...”Kyle told Blair the information Luke revealed.Blair sat by the bed, carefully holding Mable’s hand. She had only woken up for a short while before falling asleep again.At Kyle’s words, a cold and gloomy aura shrouded Blair’s face. His dark eyes were unfathomable.Stephen of East Erebar again...What grudge did he have against Blair?Blair looked at Kyle and said, “Contact Solomon and tell him to be ready to close the net at any time.”“Got it.”Kyle paused before saying, “Stephen must have people planted in Richworth since he understands Luke’s situation so well. I’ve already sent someone to investigate the clues. We’ll have a lead before long.”Blair nodded and
Zoe was instantly anxious when she heard that Mable was sick. “Mabes is sick? Is it serious? Ky, I want to see Mabes...”Kyle rubbed her head and said, “It’s too late today. We’ll go tomorrow, okay?”With a worried expression, Zoe looked at Kyle and said, “I hope Mabes is okay. With her medical skills, she should be able to heal herself.”Kyle nodded and said nothing.In this world, no matter how good one’s medical skills were, there were still diseases that could not be cured and poisons that could not be detoxified...Zoe saw Kyle’s frown and worried expression and said, “Ky, is Mabes seriously ill?”Kyle looked at her and said, “It’s a bit serious, but we need to be optimistic. You can’t cry when we go to the hospital to see her tomorrow, okay? Mable is already hurting from being sick. She’ll be even more sad if she sees you cry.”Upon hearing this, Zoe felt a sense of unease in her heart.She silently prayed for Mable to be okay....Mable woke up again the next morning.
