Chapter 1046 Waverly, still reclined in bed, was pale like snow.
The needle in her body would torture immensely for the past few days. It felt horrible everytime.
There was no way to treat it, and her only choice was to apply local anesthetic every time. She could not leave the hospital at all.
Most important of all, the anesthetic had side-effects. She might end up developing paralysis or dementia should she go on using it.
It was then, still in bed, that she heard this important piece of information from the listening device, and she quickly said to Max, "Arrange something for me, Brother. Use this evidence to force Charmine into helping me to take out the needle. If she doesn't agree to it, we will tell this to the Granger family, and they will then stop Guy from helping her."
Max's face eased upon hearing her plan.
He was unable to get to Charmine as of late, but it seemed that there was an opportunity after all!
He took the device from her. "Okay, Iâll do it right away. Wait for my news."
At Violet Villa, late at night...
Even after Charmine had recovered, Anthony looked permanently restless. He was contacting someone with his phone on the balcony.
Choosing against disturbing him, Charmine used her computer to sort out some work.
As she was looking at a document, her phone notification alerted her, and upon clicking on it, she realized it was a voice message sent by Max.
Knowing that Anthony was around, she changed the voice messages into texts.
The texts appeared on her screen.
[You know about your blood type, right?]
[This doesn't stop me from saving her, donât worry.]
Charmine frowned. This conversation was between Guy and someone else, and upon recalling that Nial left with Guy, she realized that it must have been Nial.
Before she could reply, Max sent her another text.
[Charmine, what do you say if I send this recording to the Grangers? How would things turn out?]
Charmine frowned. How would things turn out, he said? Terrible, no doubt!
The Grangers would not let Guy transfuse his blood to her...
Max was threatening her!
Max sent her another text.
[Charmine, help Waverly to get the needle out from her.
Otherwise, you'll suffer with her!]
Charmine's eyes had a glint of violence. Her red lips curled up as she typed, [Max D'Cruz, are you sure you want to threaten me?
Max then replied the following, [You pushed me to do this! I've given the red wolf bone to you, but you didn't keep your word!] 3 Charmine then texted, [I've always kept my word when dealing with people. Unfortunately, you're not a person! If you didn't step in, the situation wouldnât have come to this! If you decided to do what you did, you should've been prepared to endure the consequences!]
[So youâre saying you wonât be treating Waverly? Are you sure you want to go down this road?] came Max's text, followed by another.
[Donât blame me for what happens next! The Grangers will come to you in no time!]
Charmine merely sent him a video along with the text, [If you run your mouth, your video will be leaked, too!]
In the hospital...
Max was about to keep his phone when he suddenly saw the threatening video and text from Charmine.
It was that dreaded video of him sleeping with the older woman.
His face stiffened. Charmine was threatening him!
Charmine was using this video to threaten him again! â
He quickly texted, [Charmine, are you even a human?! How many times have you threatened me with this video!?]
[As long as it works. Your choice!] came Charmineâs reply.
With that, she turned off her phone and shrugged him off entirely.
