“Drinks?”
The woman was stunned. She looked at her glass and asked Oliver, “Do you know what kind of drink I’m drinking?”
“Human blood, the fresh blood of teenagers,” Oliver said calmly.
The woman was stunned again and stared at Oliver in surprise.
The woman thought, ‘Most people would run away if they knew I wasn’t drinking wine or drinks, but blood.
But why doesn’t this Clusian man show any fear at all?’
In fact, Oliver had already identified the blood in her cup, so the shock in his heart had subsided long ago, thinking that she just had a special hobby as a rich person.
The woman asked Oliver again after a while, “If you know what I’m drinking, why aren’t you scared?”
Oliver spread out his hands and said, “Everyone has their own freedom and hobbies. Why would I care about anyone else’s business?”
The woman tried to calm herself down for a moment before she asked Oliver, “So how do you know that? How do you know it’s not wine but blood?”
Oliver said indifferently, “Well… I can tell you that I have a special skill, which is to recognize the essence of something at a glance.”
The woman was a little curious. After thinking for a while, she said, “Since you are also a doctor, do you know the reason why I am not feeling well?”
“Yes, I do,” Oliver nodded and said. “The blood you drink has a high concentration of lead. This man has lead poisoning. I assume your body is very sensitive to lead, so you immediately react to your discomfort, and you need to go to the hospital and get your stomach pumped and fluids to dilute the lead in your blood.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Lead?” The woman was stunned again, and then thought about it carefully. Then she suddenly understood something.
She thought, “My body has the same symptoms as lead poisoning, but my family is so prominent, so who would dare to poison me?”
Only the older members of her family had experienced lead poisoning, and she hadn’t, so she didn’t think of it before.
Oliver’s words made her realize that her body’s symptoms were indeed similar to those of lead poisoning, as the older generation had said.
After a moment’s thought, the woman took a silver paper-like object from her bag, placed the object on the tabletop, and then turned the mouth of the glass upside down, pouring the blood remaining in the glass onto the silver paper-like object.
There were only seven or eight drops of blood in the glass, which fell on the silver paper one by one. Oliver also stared closely at the blood dripping on the silver paper. Suddenly, it seemed that there was some chemical reaction. It suddenly exploded and turned into a cloud of smoke.
“It’s really lead poison!”
The woman was surprised and looked at Oliver blankly. She thought, ‘Is this young man with a Clusian face really a brilliant doctor?
He knew I was poisoned by lead just by touching my wrist, and he knew it was the cup of blood that contained lead.
Was he sent here by some enemy of my family?
Are they trying to set a trap for me?’
The woman blankly stared at Oliver with surprise and suspicion in her eyes, and she clearly seemed
afraid of him. Seeing this, Oliver suddenly frowned and said, “Do you think I’m up to something? In that case, bye. Go to the hospital yourself.”
After saying that, Oliver got up and went out.
The clubhouse was so big, and he could find another place to pass the time.
Oliver thought, “This woman is weird. She’s gorgeous, but she’s so weird, and I hate her taste for blood. Does she really think she’s a vampire?”
The woman stared at him and didn’t say anything to stop him.
She still believed that this Clusian man who suddenly appeared had some ulterior motive towards her. She wanted to see what tricks the man had up his sleeve.
But Oliver left without looking back.
The woman stayed for a while, but she didn’t see Oliver come back after more than ten minutes. Thinking about the amazing medical skills Oliver had just demonstrated, she couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.
Oliver didn’t think too much. He watched the videos online to kill time until thirty or forty minutes later, when Shark called and asked him if he had a good time.
Oliver replied Shark with a smile. When Oliver met the other pals, Wayne and Simon blushed.
Shark proudly showed off his ability to conquer, patted Oliver again, and asked him what he had chosen,
Oliver said, “Not bad.”
Oliver didn’t explain or mention the woman who drank blood. Oliver didn’t want to get into trouble or pursue the foreign girl, so Oliver wasn’t interested in her, no matter how beautiful she was.
Shark laughed all the way and said that he would take Shark to some other more unique clubhouse in the future.
The bodyguard drove them to the hotel, and as soon as they stepped out of the car, two tall, strong men in black suits came over and said, “Mr. Oliver Eastwood, our boss wants to have a talk with you. Here’s the invitation.”
The strong man handed over an envelope.
Oliver glanced at Shark. As Oliver opened the envelope, he wondered if the two men were accomplices of the gang of kidnappers.
Inside the envelope was not a letter, but a check from a Quesdia bank with the figure of 10 million Oros written on it.
Oliver didn’t understand the signature, but the seal had a strange pattern.
Oliver wondered, “They’re offering me 10 million Oros just to talk to me? What do they mean?”
When Shark next to Oliver saw the signature pattern on the check, Shark’s face changed and he couldn’t help saying, “Prince Fermin?”
The man in the black suit bowed and said, “Yes.”
Oliver frowned and said to Shark, “I don’t know any prince. Why did he invite me?”
Shark pondered for a moment and said to Oliver, “Well… Prince Fermin is very, very influential across Oropa and… his family is the richest family in the world. Those so-called super-rich people in the world are nothing in front of the Dellas family, but… I’m not sure why he wants to see you. Well, I’ll go with you.”
Shark had a wide network of contacts, which resulted from his high status. He was one of the top people in his circle.
But Shark was a nobody compared to the Dellas family, one of Oropa’s most powerful and wealthy superfamilies.
Shark thought, ‘Are Leighton and other jerks sheltered by the Dellas family, and now they want revenge?
If Prince Fermin stands up for Leighton, Oliver will have a hard time getting away with it.
As Oliver’s partner, Shark didn’t want to see Oliver get involved in trouble, so he wanted to go together with Oliver and help him resolve the issue.
Oliver wanted to refuse, but he didn’t say anything when he saw Shark winking at him quietly.
The two men in black suits immediately asked Oliver and Shark to get into the car. The cars they drove were two Rolls-Royce Phantoms.
