Chapter 13 Looking for Culprit
After being discharged from the hospital, Joanna followed Saya back to her house with two bedrooms.
Saya cooked a meal, and the two dined while chatting. Time passed by quickly.
At night, the two girls slept together. The night was cold, and the room was so quiet that only their faint breaths could be heard.
Joanna looked at the night sky and slowly opened her mouth.
"That afternoon, I received a call from an unfamiliar number. I was told that Lukas was waiting for me at the Grand Court Hotel and then went there."
"I was too careless to fall into the trap."
"Who was that man?" Saya ground her teeth.
"I don't know. The room was dark for the two nights." Joanna gnashed her teeth.
She was frustrated to think about the sinister air of the man.
"That man doesn't matter. It's all in the past. I just take it as a dog bite!"
At that, Joanna's eyes glittered cold light.
"But I won't let the schemer go!"
"Jo, you're right! Let's go to the hotel tomorrow, find that front desk staff, and figure out everything." Saya nodded.
The next day, Saya and Joanna went to the Grand Court Hotel, searched the whole place, but failed to find the waitress.
They went to check the name of the customer who checked in that suite, but she couldn't remember the room number. Moreover, there were too many suites to investigate.
Angry and resentful, Joanna had to bide her time.
She believed that the schemer would act again.
It didn't matter. She would wait for it!
Since she could give up the engagement with Lukas, what else was she afraid of?
...
At Brown's house, Jane was sitting in the bedroom.
"That old fool Kane had a heart attack?"
"Around 6 p.m. the night before, he was sent to the Third People's Hospital in Imperial City. After the rescue, he was out of danger." Her son-in-law, Eugene Jefferson nodded.
"He was rescued!" Jane gritted her teeth.
He was in luck!
When her plan worked, Chris, the son of Kane and Lilah Stone, should have slept with his uncle's daughter, Emmy Stone. The thought of it alone cheered her up.
He was rescued, so what?
Something outrageous happened. It was incest that Chris slept with Emmy.
Even though Chris was impotent, the aphrodisiacs were so potent that the scene should be fervent.
She believed that when Kane woke up and saw the pictures, he would have another heart attack.
The consecutive attacks would render the doctors helpless.
Eugene was upset and took a cautious look at his mother-in-law.
"Mom, Emmy went to the wrong room."
"What?" The smile on Jane's face froze.
"Emmy took too much of that drug to make it to Chris's room." Eugene hung his head.
He saw Jane's pale face and added immediately, "But we're sure that Chris did take the drug, and... there was a delirious woman in the room. The noise was loud, but... but we failed to take any pictures."
He didn't dare to tell her that the poisoner had been caught.
He only rejoiced about his cautious action when he contacted those people. Afraid of Chris, he didn't show up in person nor leave any traces.
Before Jane could curse in her rage, her cell phone suddenly rang.
"What? Jade had a car accident? Where is she? I'm on my way!"
Before she could hang up the phone, Eugene heard the anxious voice of his wife's assistant.
"Chairman, our company... the big order we signed is facing a problem. The other party insists on withdrawing the capital at the cost of paying a penalty for the breach of contract. If our project can't be delivered on time, we'll have to pay a large amount of compensation."
"How dare they!"
After Jane finished her speech, her body began to twitch. Eugene's heart gave a physical lurch.
"Mom!"
