But it didn't matter. His men had already tracked down the host's trail deep in the Amazon rainforest, and soon, he'd be able to cultivate his antibiotics.
He slipped on his gloves, drew back his hand, and with a ferocious swing, slapped her across the face. The force of it made her see stars, her nose spouting blood like a broken faucet.
"You think you can still threaten me? No matter how you divide yourself, if you want to stay alive, you'll hand over those antibiotics in exchange for the antidote to Aurelia's poison." His words were sharp, cutting to the core.
Megan's mouth twitched viciously, "As long as I'm alive, | will be Mrs. Stirling. If you want a divorce, I'll take Aurelia with me to the grave." "You think | care? There are plenty of women in the world. If you both die, I'll just have Lana take the title of Mrs.
Stirling." Leopold's thin lips curled into a sinister, cold smile as he dropped the bombshell and turned to leave, the chill in the room lingering in his wake.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the end, Megan agreed to trade two vials of antibiotics for one dose of the antidote.
No matter what, she had bought herself another three months of life. She believed her boss would surely come up with a better plan to detoxify her and keep Leopold at bay.
Aurelia had prepared a lavish dinner to thank Skyler for the medicine he had made for her.
"Skyler, can Geoffrey come up with the antidote?" she asked.
Skyler raised his eyebrows in pride, "Geoffrey's good, but what | know, he may not. This poison is an improved version | developed, with additional ingredients. Without the secret formula, he can't make the antidote." "That's a relief." Aurelia could now rest easy, trusting that even if Geoffrey was indeed another personality of Skyler's, their thoughts were not interconnected, so Geoffrey couldn't possibly know the formula locked in Skyler's mind.
"Skyler, with a genius like you by my side, I've got an ace up my sleeve for the future." Skyler grinned. He loved hearing Aurelia's praise.
Back in Eastwood Heights, everyone treated him like a fool, a nobody. Even with all his degrees, nobody truly believed in him, and he was just seen as a nerd.
Now, Aurelia, William, and Leopold all treated him like a genius, like someone truly remarkable, and it made his heart soar.
"Angel, whatever you need, just ask. | can definitely help you." "Thanks, Skyler. Here, let's raise a toast." Aurelia lifted her glass, the clink of their cheers ringing out, melodious as a silver bell.
Just as they had finished their meal, Tanya arrived.
Aurelia went upstairs with William, who hid around the corner of the staircase to eavesdrop.
Skyler slipped his hand into his pocket, clutching the golden lollipop Aurelia had given him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt symbolized courage and strength, and he carried it with him every day.
Tanya gave him a slight smile, "What have you been up to these past few days?" "Just hanging out with William," Skyler murmured.
"You spend all day playing, and don't you ever think about doing something serious?" "Playing is the serious business for me." Skyler secretly wished she'd hurry back to Eastwood Heights so he could return to his carefree, joyful days.
Tanya had come with a purpose, trying to probe Skyler with indirect questions.
"Skyler, do you like Aurelia a lot?" He nodded vigorously, "Angel is the best person in the world." Tanya frowned slightly, "Better than me?" "By a hundredfold, a thousandfold, a millionfold," Skyler answered in his mind.
"Auntie Tanya, if you don't have anything else, you can go back. I've got more playing to do." Tanya gently cradled his face, whispering, "Remember, I'm the only one in this world who really cares about you.
Everyone else has ulterior motives. They might just be looking to use you."
