Chapter 318 Clear Liquid
Chapter 318 Clear Liquid
Joshua almost agreed with excitement to that considerable number in his mind. Then on second
thought, he realized the lady in front of him might not just simply request an answer with such a huge
payment.
He lowered his upper body, sat back and felt the handle of his swivel chair. Then he asked smilingly,
“Not sure what Miss Angie wants me to do.”
“You are catching on, Dr. Lee.” Angie raised the corner of her mouth. She made no attempt to disguise
her malevolent stare, “I know you are hired by John. I can offer the same as what John brings up to Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
you.”
She paused, with her approachable face turning cold, “I won’t force you. But I can’t promise that this
will not affect your career.”
Joshua was frightened by Angie’s venomous eyes. He didn’t understand how a four-year-old kid would
displease her. He was not a sympathetic people either. He suddenly thought of the woman with the kid,
and John’s identity. Could it be that Angie was John’s mistress?
It seemed to be impossible for a woman like Angie to be a mistress. However, it all depended.
Angie shouted out sneeringly when Joshua was filling his head with nonsense, “Stop your wild guess or
I promise you cannot get out of here intact today.”
“I won’t.”
As soon as Joshua remembered the two horrible guys outside, he sat straight. He almost forgot how
arrogant she was. How could Angie be unworldly with her blossom at the upper class?
Angie didn’t want to deal with this sleazy and greedy old man anymore. She spoke the purpose of her
visit out, “I know that bastard will come to see you tomorrow. All you need to do is to send my small gift
to him.”
Angie then pulled out a sealed tiny bottle with white liquid inside. It looked just like plain water.
Joshua stared at the bottle with his heart beating fast. He wasn’t that foolish as to believe the bottle
was filled with water. This was not “gift” at all. It was a lethal toxin.
“Trust me Miss Angie. I will forward this to him for sure.”
Angie’s eyes sunk. Her bright red lips grew into a thread, just as a flashing bloody blade from a
distance, “My patience is not endless, and I think you know what you should do, Dr. Lee.”
She got this medicine bottle from Lyle, for that bastard to suffer a terrible death in front of Vivian.
There was no way that Vivian could enjoy John’s love and stayed happily with him while she wandered
around the edge of love and pain miserably.
That bitch didn’t deserve any happiness at all.
“Please, Miss Angie, it is impossible for me to do such things.” Joshua said with scared face. If he
injected it to the kid, he would not only lose his job, but also his own life.
Though he loved money, he didn’t want to get involved into the struggle between rich families.
Angie stretched her gloomy face and watched his reaction calmly, “Do you think you are allowed to
refuse me if I find you?”
She had a strong love of red. Under the reflection of a pale light overhead, her bright red lips and the
scarlet nail made her a ghost with loose hair and painted nails.
This shook Joshua with fear, “Please let me off, Miss Angie. If I follow your requirements, I won’t be
able to get out of here alive or I can no longer work as a doctor.”
Angie flipped her nail in mock and looked carelessly towards him, “What are you afraid of? This is
imported drug. All you need to do is to mix the medicine with it and then give him an injection. You
won’t get into any troubles.”
“But...” here was the thing. Joshua didn’t dare to take risks. If he were exposed, he would go to jail.
Angie saw how constantly Joshua rubbed his fingers. She smiled ironically, grabbed the pen and wrote
something down. She then threw the ripped check to Joshua, “Is it enough for you?”
Joshua got a sneak peek at the number on the check. He was deeply impressed. In addition to the one
million he just received, it was three million in total.
“I will offer you an extra five million dollars when you finish. It will be enough for you for a while.”
The reason why Angie was so generous was because she never thought Joshua would live to cash it
the money. It wasn’t that Angie was reluctant to pay the money, but she had just learned something
from Lyle in the past few days.
Only the dead would keep the secret in this world and only they could reassure her.
It would be totally eight million. Even if he worked for the rest of his life, he wouldn’t have earned such
a huge amount of money, not to mention that he had to flatter the rich.
He was also fed up with his life. Joshua felt worried still and asked again, “Can you guarantee that I
can get out of it?
“Sure.” Angie replied with confidence.
Joshua looked at the bottle, as well as the megabucks of 3 million in front of him. He then put the bottle
into his drawer, “Trust me Miss Angie. I promise to accomplish the task.”
Watching Joshua’s move, Angie got a broader smile, “Just so you know.”
“I understand. As long as I get your support.” Joshua repeated worriedly.
Angie smiled and said nothing. She then got up from the chair with Joshua followed to see her out.
Joshua had not yet lifted his foot when Angie suddenly stopped. She leaned slightly and said to him, “I
bet you know what confidentiality means. I’ve heard that you have lovely twin sons in other provinces”
She then left, regardless of how Joshua felt.
Joshua’s excitement got dampened by Angie’s words. No wonder she was confident that Joshua would
agree to her request. It was not just because of her offer, but also because she had already done a
thorough investigation about him.
It was also a subtle way of telling him that if he dared to betray her abruptly or talk nonsense, his
children would for sure be threatened.
He was such a wisenheimer. Joshua squeezed his palms with no more flatter in his eyes. Luckily he
also prepared more than this...
Soon after Angie gave the medicine to Joshua, she felt much better. She would no longer give Vivian a
second chance to escape. This time, she would kill that bastard for sure.
All she had to do was to wait for the good news tomorrow.
Angie hadn’t seen William since yesterday. She should at least go and visit him, and arrange for the
following move.
