Chapter 262
“I… I… I will give it my all…” Although the doctor’s words held a glimmer of hope, deep down, he felt an overwhelming sense of despair.
However, Yenny completely disregarded the doctor’s pitiful appearance.
After all, earning money from him would prove to be quite challenging.
Upon leaving the hospital, Yenny had his subordinates reach out to all medical experts in the city of Janeborough.
Over the next two days. Yenny sought out every available doctor that he could get in contact with.
However, each and every doctor, whom he consulted, shook their head with a sigh upon seeing his hand, indicating the daunting nature of the problem. They had no solution for his condition.
As time went on, Yenny’s hand condition deteriorated, and soon, he had lost all feeling in his fingertips.
If more time passed, his entire arm might become devoid of sensation.
“We have thoroughly investigated the previous hospital, Mr. Pembroke, and there does not appear to be any issues with the doctors and nurses. We… we also do not know where things went wrong, the assistant expressed with deep regret.
Usually, their cautious approach should have deterred any wrongdoings. But Yenny’s hand did not seem like an accidental occurrence; it was clearly a deliberate act.
“I really want to confront him,” Yenny’s gaze bore into his hand.
Despite his efforts to form a fist, his hand failed to respond accordingly.
“Who are you referring to, Mr. Pembroke?” The assistant struggled to grasp the full meaning behind Yenny’s words.
However, Yenny remained silent, providing no further explanation for his statement
“Are you talking about… Simon Hernandez?!” His assistant exclaimed in astonishment. Amid the ensuing silence, the assistant suddenly comprehended the significance of Yenny’s statement.
“Besides him, who else could possess such capabilities?” Yenny gritted his teeth.
“What steps should we take now?” The assistant’s expression flickered with uncertainty upon being confronted with this question.
“Simon has become Mr. Pembroke’s ultimate nemesis. If Simon truly drugged him, this would be a grave situation,” the assistant pondered.
“Help me get in touch with Simon and inform him that I wish to meet him personally,” Yenny stated, resigning himself after several unsuccessful attempts to make a fist.
Upon hearing this, the assistant raised his gaze in surprise toward Yenny. However, he quickly averted his eyes and nodded, saying, “Certainly.”
That same afternoon, Simon received the news of Yenny’s intention to visit him.
When Gavin delivered the message, Simon was peeling an apple for Marina.
Upon hearing the news of Yenny’s upcoming visit, Marina felt a twinge of disappointment.
Lowering her head, she observed Simon diligently peeling the apple. “You’re right. His vigilance is commendable. He detected something amiss so swiftly. If a few more days had passed, the toxin would have traveled through his arm’s nerves, reaching his brain. After a few additional days, his brain
would have been completely paralyzed. By then, even if he had survived, he would have been reduced to a state of idiocy,” Marina expressed, tinged with regret.
“It’s already quite a feat to accomplish this,” Simon remarked, finishing the peeling and cutting the apple into small pieces. for Marina before offering it to her.
“It seems I should develop a colorless and odorless poison that even machines cannot detect, Marina mused, savoring the apple. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Gavin discreetly glanced at Marina and wondered, “How can Miss Bailey utter such chilling words with such an innocent. expression?”
“Should we agree, Mr. Hernandez?” Gavin inquired once more.
Simon did not directly respond to his question, but instead, he looked directly at Marina, seeking her opinion.
After all, the notion of poisoning had originated from Marina, so she held some decision–making authority in this matter.
“Yes, since he willingly arrived at our doorstep, we should certainly meet him.” Marina stated, taking a bite of the apple.
“Alright, I’ll respond right away,” Gavin replied before turning and exiting.
In the room, only Marina and Simon remained.
This time, Yenny really made a significant mistake. It would be best if you had a sincere conversation with him about the terms and conditions, Simon suggested, his lips parting slightly.
If one listened closely, a hint of pride and arrogance could still be detected in his tone.
After all, it should be noted that there were not many people who could make Yenny look so miserable and pathetic.
“It’s definitely worth a substantial deal. After all, he struck a deep blow to my heart,” Marina expressed, emphasizing her deeply entrenched grudge.
“I hold resentments. Whoever harms me, I will undoubtedly repay them a thousand times over.” Marina fiercely bit into the apple in her mouth as if envisioning it as Yenny.
The following morning, Yenny arrived at the Hernandez Group with his assistant.
Gavin courteously guided them to the reception room, serving them the finest tea.
However, despite consuming cup after cup of tea, Simon remained nowhere to be found.
Of course, Yenny knew that Simon was purposely delaying.
Though aware of the situation, the assistant struggled to control his temper.
He shouted directly at Gavin, “We have been waiting here for so long, and the agreed–upon time has already passed by nearly an hour. Has Mr. Hernandez not finished his work yet?!”
“We cannot do anything about it. Mr. Hernandez is dealing with something truly crucial. If waiting has become tiresome, why not return today and come back another time?” Gavin responded with a smile.
The assistant glared at Gavin, sensing his feigned confusion. He yearned to rip off Gavin’s hypocritical mask. However, before he could act, Yenny, seated on the couch, intervened to halt him.
“What nonsense is this? Have you forgotten the principles I taught you?!” Yenny reprimanded firmly.
Upon hearing Yenny’s admonishing voice, the assistant dared not utter another word despite his anger and reluctance,
“I apologize, Gavin. My assistant lacks an understanding of proper etiquette. Allow me to apologize on his behalf,” Yenny maintained his customary gentle and composed expression, showing no signs of anger from being neglected.
Mr. Pembroke possesses a superior grasp of etiquette,” Gavin silently admired. “No wonder he holds the position of the
Pembroke family head. His ability to endure what most people can’t have already granted him a significant advantage.”
“You can also inform Mr. Hernandez that I have a lot of time on hand, and he can take all the time he needs for his affairs. I’m in no rush.” Yenny calmly conveyed.
“Alright, I will relay Mr. Pembroke’s message.” Gavin nodded at Yenny before turning and leaving the room..
