Mr. Finn’s Spoiled Wife Plan

“That’s right.” Ruby nodded, “By using this so-called antidote, which was actually a poison, Wyon could keep controlling Raphael, thus using him to hold me in check, this was his ultimate goal. The reason why he was willing to give Raphael to me with confidence was that he thought, I must not be able to solve these three poisons, and also determined that even if I did, I would not be able to escape his hold.”

After hearing these words, Layton’s face suddenly turned pale.

He stood in place for a moment, then sat down again, his hand balled into a fist and slammed it hard on the coffee table.

“It’s his own son, how can he do that!”

Ruby had thoroughly appreciated Wyon’s ruthlessness and was now able to accept it quite calmly.

“That man sees only his own interests, his relatives or lovers are stepping stones to his ends, he can use them however he wants, family is a worthless scrap in front of him.”

When she thought that Raphael could still have such a sunny personality in that kind of family environment, Ruby felt incredulous.

“So what do we do? Should we keep dragging it out like this? With his current state, how long can he last?” Layton gritted his teeth, his face full of worry.

Ruby pursed the corners of her lips and said in a deep voice: “For the time being, it will not be life-threatening, because these three poisons cannot be solved at the same time, I can only take it one step at a time, one of the poisons is more troublesome to connect. I have sent someone to collect the potion, but this kind of potion is rarely seen on the market, even the number of times it appears on the black market is rare, and I don’t know if I can receive it, if not ……”

She paused and narrowed her eyes, thinking that it looked like there was a possibility that she would have to borrow the grounds of Laboratory Seven again.

Layton was alarmed just by listening to it like that.

“What about Wyon? Didn’t he only give you three days, and if you don’t give him the information by tomorrow, he definitely won’t let you off the hook.”

“I know.” Ruby did not care, sneers floating between her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth stuck a cold arc, “However, I don’t think he will come to me tomorrow.”

Layton froze again, “What do you mean?”

This time, however, Ruby did not explain.

She glanced at her phone, pondered and said, “It’s time for Raphael to drink his medicine, go feed him, I need to make a call.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“…… Okay.” Layton understood that she was not willing to talk about it, so he did not ask any more questions and immediately got up to go to the kitchen to bring the medicine.

Ruby watched him go upstairs, walked to the balcony and called Levi.

The call was soon answered.

“How’s it going?” Levi’s voice came over the next second, his low tone interspersed with the slightest hint of concern.

Ruby exhaled heavily, “There is nothing serious for the time being, but the exact cure depends on whether Josie can find H1 reagent, if so, there will be salvation.”

Levi couldn’t help but ask, “And what if there isn’t?”

“Then I can only prepare it now, that reagent is very troublesome to prepare, I guess it will take quite a lot of time, so I have to stay in the capital for some time.”

Hearing her say this, Levi was immediately uneasy: “I’d better go to you, there are Evans and Chester keeping an eye on this side, it’s fine, you’re over there alone with so much pressure, I feel uneasy.”

This time, Ruby did not refuse and, after half a moment of thought, agreed.

“Okay, if there is still no news from Josie tomorrow morning, I must immediately rush to Laboratory Seven, and I estimate that I will have to stay in there for three or four days. If you stay in Jin Yuan to keep an eye on it during these days, I can feel more at ease.”

“Okay.” Levi breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, “But it’s been two days, can Raphael’s body still hold up for that long?”

“Yeah, I’ve reduced the poison in his system by a lot, another injection in the morning to stabilize it and he’ll be fine for another week.”

“Well then, I’ll pack up and set off right away.”

……

What Ruby did not expect that Levi would be so fast.

But in just two hours, before dark, he appeared in Jin Yuan.

“How did you get here so fast?” She couldn’t help but be surprised.

It would take an hour and a half by plane from Sea City to the capital, plus the time to get on and off the plane and on the way, wouldn’t he be rushing to the airport as soon as he hung up?

Levi looked at her surprised look and smiled faintly, “I didn’t take a plane, I drove straight here, I drove fast on the way.”

At that, Ruby’s brow furrowed slightly, “Did you overspeed?”

Levi only smiled, “I’m worried about you being here alone.”

Just then, suddenly, a somewhat sultry voice came over: “What, I’m not human?”

Levi raised his head and glanced behind Ruby, only then did he realize that Layton was also here.

“Layton, it’s been a long time.” He smiled and greeted politely.

Layton nodded in response, “It’s been a long time, Mr. Finn, you are really fast.”

Ruby blushed when she heard that.

But right now was not the time to talk about such nonsense, she cleared her throat and turned her head to ask Levi, “Where is Olivia?”

Levi reassured her, “Don’t worry, Evans is with her, she will be fine.”

Having not seen Olivia for so many days, Ruby missed her.

“What about Josie, any news?” Levi took the initiative to ask.

Ruby looked serious and shook her head, “Not yet.”

Levi sighed, “Just be patient.”

……

Meanwhile, F Country.

Benjamin’s side also got the message.

“Did Raphael really get poisoned by Wyon? Just to get her hands on something?”

Lewis nodded, “Yeah.”

Benjamin narrowed his eyes, and shrewdness came out from under his eyes, “It seems that I misunderstood, Ruby went to Z Country, not for her grandmother’s relics, but for her grandfather’s relics.”

Lewis was stunned, “President, how do you know ……”

“The Williamson family and the Henderson family have never had any dealings, but the relationship with the Grant family is more subtle. Wyon and Logan developed infrasonic weapon before, which was well known by the whole city. But later, they separated, so it seems that Wyon wants to steal the things developed by Logan!”
