Chapter 620

Denise walked out of the laboratory with a small tinted bottle. Inside this bottle were the sample of her newly-created poison. She was on her way to meet with the leader to hand the poison over but she felt the light vibration of her phone.

‘I’m Dr. Eliezer Rivera. I’m a pediatrician and you can look my information in the internet if you want to know what kind of person I am. Send me a message if it’s okay to meet you.’

Denise frowned at the message before deleting it and pocketed her phone once again. ‘Why would a pediatrician contact me? I’m a poison maker. Is he planning to kill his patients? What a weirdo.’

She continued walking to the head office, feeling the bottle inside her coat pocket while eating the lollipop but her mind was still stuck at the message she received no matter how hard she tried to forget it.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

“Come. Ahh!”

She pushed the door open and found her leader making out with his secretary once again. She didn’t really care about it and she was used to it already.

.....

“Here’s the item you want. You can test it on someone to verify.”

The secretary stiffened but continued giving the man a deep throat. She was the fifth secretary and she didn’t know what happened to the other four. She suddenly feel afraid that the man would test the poison on her.

“I’ll make sure your man comes out of that cell. Just continue to do a good job.”

When she left, she looked at the woman kneeling on the floor for one last time before closing the door. ‘Really young.’ She commented to herself before going back to her room.

She pulled out her laptop and checked the name Eliezer Rivera. His information were known to the public given that he’s a doctor. What really bothered her was the fact that he’s a pediatrician who’s contacting her.

She took out her phone and retrieved the deleted message from him.

‘This is not a scam, right? But even if I answer and entertain his concern, it’s not like I can see him. I’d probably get killed if I take a step outside this place.’

Denise knew that she could no longer turn back time and refuse her involvement. She knew that death isn’t even enough to offset her crimes. She has done a lot of crimes and she accepted the fact that she can’t be forgiven. As to why she wanted Simon to come out of jail, it’s because she needed someone to look after their daughter. Her mother is already old. She has to rest but Denise can no longer leave to see them.

Lying on her bed, her tears fell as she looked at the latest picture of her daughter that her mother sent her. “If there’s another life, I wish I’d never have this passion with poison. I wish that my daughter will have more caring and kind parents. I wish that my mother will have a great daughter instead of me. I wish that I never met Simon and made that mistake of drugging him. It would be great if I just become a rock.”

Denise didn’t reply to Eliezer’s message and tries to forget it once again.

The next day, another message came from him.

“I am a friend of Simon Summer. He wanted me to find you.”

Denise blinked her eyes several times while reading the message. She knew that he was lying. There’s no way that he’s a friend with the man she fancies. She knew all of the people he interacted and the people he treated as friends and family. He never had anyone named Eliezer among those people.

“Stop contacting me. You got the wrong person. I don’t know anyone named Simon.”

Eliezer received the message and snorted. “She’s denying her connection to him.”

“Let me send her a message.”

“Go ahead.”

Tristan took the phone and typed his reply to Denise. “We have a better way to let Simon out as long as you cooperate with us. We know what kind of person you are and if you choose to continue with your plan, Simon will hate you. The next victim is a very important sister of his niece.”

Denise stiffened at this response and her hands trembled. “Why are you telling me just now?!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Tristan raised his eyebrow and gave her a call instead. However, she rejected his call.

“Do not call me. I can’t take calls from anyone except my boss.”

Tristan hacked her phone and started typing directly using her gadget’s interface while blocking anyone from checking her phone.

“You are safe from any monitoring now. I’m Tristan. I will prevent anyone from checking your phone so, let us know everything before it’s too late. Just so you know, the man you love will hate you for the rest of his life should something happen to Stefan and Cayenne.”

“I don’t know anyone named Stefan and Cayenne. I was only told to create a poison that could help sir Napoleone escape from his cell.”

“So, they’re going to use the poison in the city jail?”

“Yes, that’s what I was told. I didn’t know know it would be used against the people he cared about.”

“Have you completed the product?”

“Yes, I gave it to my boss already.”

Denise told them everything, hoping she was trusting the right person. She was betting on them. If they turned out to be people who was phishing on her, she can only blame it on her unlucky fate.

“I will try my best to stop my boss. This is my way off repenting for all the crimes I did. In exchange, can you help my mother and daughter? I don’t know if Simon will accept our child but I’d be happy if she’ll have someone who can take care of her and my mother properly. I earned enough for them to live in luxury.”

“Wait. Don’t do anything rush. Monitor your boss and stop him from leaving the country first. Do something in your end to prevent him from sending the poisons. We need to take care of few things in our end. Your daughter is waiting for you to come home.”

While communicating with her, Tristan was also calling Travis and Stefan, relaying everything that Denise stated. Who would’ve thought that the misunderstanding would lead them to prevent a huge tragedy from happening?
