waking

Chapter 132 

On the coffee table in front of the man were many photos that Kevin had stealthily taken at the Edwards‘ banquet. Naomi, in a black dress, held a glass of champagne, talking and laughing with Philip Edwards and conversing with other men. 

She was graceful and poised, her long hair cascading over her shoulders, stunningly beautiful with a pair of eyes filled with joy. Her demeanor was proper and elegant, with a subtle sense of distance. However, due to Kevin’s deliberate candid shots, those photos conveyed a sense of flir 

Kevin’s phone had been smashed by Naomi when he threatened her, but he had uploaded the photos to the cloud. After getting a new phone, the photos were still there. Now, he and Bill were shivering on the carpet, watching the man with his well–defined fingers pick up his phone. The cold. piercing voice rang out. “Chop off his fingers and bring them here to unlock it.” 

Kevin Garner shrank back in fear. “No. please don’t!” 

But before he could even scream, the man in black stepped forward, grabbing his hand with a swift and decisive chop 

“Ah–Kevin howled in agony, while Bill Sullivan, beside him, was struck dumb with terror. 

The bloodied fingers were brought over, but the man in black showed his disgust. “That’s dirty. Flush them down the toiler!” 

The man in black took the phone, turned, and entered the bathroom. The next moment, they heard the sound of the toilet flushing 

“Please, mercy! I know I was wrong! I know I was wrong” Kevin could no longer act tough. He kept begging for mercy. “Til never do anything wrong again. I swear I won’t. He had schemed and offended too many people in the past. After being captured, his mind raced through his past misdeeds. He had caused a young female artist to get pregnant and then forced her to have an abortion, 

When the woman’s brother found out about what he had done, he vowed to kill him. But later, he managed to appease the artist, and she let it And now, the biggest issue was with Naomi But he hadn’t even acted against her when he was knocked unconscious and taken away. 

Kevin was pleading for mercy when that deep, husky, and bone–chilling voice sounded again. “So noisy. Make him quiet.” 

“Yes, sir.” One of the men agreed, then stepped forward and began to bear Kevin until he curled up on the carpet, continuously begging for mercy. Once inside the Lunar Bay Club, he was no longer in control of his fate. 

“Bill, save me!” Kevin cried out to Bib, who was trembling all over from fear, Bill had never witnessed such a scene. He was struggling to protect himself and wouldn’t dare to make a sound. 

After a while, the man leaned forward slightly, and his face was revealed under the light 

Kevin was barely alive, and Bill wasn’t in much better shape. They both finally got a clear look at the man–stunningly handsome, yet his eyes were Terrifying 

“Huh…” The main only let out a mocking short, then stood up. He was tall, and when he looked down at them with a sense of superiority, the oppressive feeling seemed to crush them alive. “You did an awful thing, and you must face the consequences. Do you think the rumors of me being Atopan’s Devil are just for show! I’ll keep your lives. We’ll have our fun, slowly? 

netic voice was like the grim reaper’s, and Kevin and Hall could no longer hold on and both fainted 

The deep, sigirtić 

The man ordered, “Clean up” 

“Yes, sir.” After that, the VIP room was quickly tidied up, and Bill and Kevin vanished from Atopan. 

At the Edwards family’s villa. Wilson led Naomi to his newly set up drying room. “Girl, tell me honestly, did you really cure Shawn’s face! And his leg as well 

Willson picked up an herbal medicine and handed it to Naomi. The Fischer family came to me before, I uw the injuries on Shawn, and then I refused” 

Naomi asked, “Why did you refuse? Didn’t the Fischer family offer enough 

money!” 

Wilson poked her head. “That’s why I say you’re silly. Shawn’s face was always fine. His disfigurement was all an act. You still have a lot to learn” 

Naomi was taken aback. “Are you saying Shawn’s face… is fine? 

“Would I lie to your Wilson handed her another dried herb. “You didn’t really think you cured his face, did your” 

Naomi had indeed thought it was her doing 

“But you’re not bad either. Leaming halfway and treating Derek’s burns to this extent. It wouldn’t tarnish my reputation if it got out.” Wilson handed her another herb. “Boil these three herbs and then use them for Derek’s ‘bath” 

Chapter 132 

Naomi asked, “Can you keep Shawn’s face a secret?” 

“Do you think I am someone who meddles in other people’s business! I wish to live longer.” Wilson slapped his disciple’s head. “Why are you so silly? I knew I shouldn’t have told you” 

Naomi was hit, but she didn’t mind at all. She was thinking about what Shawn’s real purpose was. She hadn’t considered it before, just thinking that Shawn’s face got better because he kept applying her ointment. As for his leg, he had been going to Oscar for treatment, so it wasn’t strange that he got better. It seemed it was not that simple. 

“Listen, Naomi, a person like Shawn is not someone you can fantasize about. You can rely on him, but don’t fall for him. He is handsome, well–built, and rich, but also ruthless. Otherwise, how could he be the one in charge of the Fischer Group and the Fischer family at such a young age?” Seeing his disciple’s foolish look, Wilson had to enlighten her. “When I refused the Fischer family before, do you think it was really because 1 didn’t want to make money? It’s because that money is earned at the risk of my life!” 

Naomi finally came to her senses and nodded. “Mr. Walter, I understand. I will act as if I don’t know about this” 

“That’s good.” Wilson looked relieved that his disciple was obedient. You should learn your skills well. In addition to treating scars, you also need to learn to read people and understand their hearts. The richer they are, the more we should keep our distance. Although we are doctors and should treat everyone equally, we cannot treat evil people, understand? Some evil people are suffering from retribution. We cannot treat them. We cannot block the retribution given by God to them, understand?” 

Naomi nodded seriously once again. “Mr. Walier, I understand” 

Wilson said, “Good, go back then.” 

Naomi took the herbs and left the Edwards villa. Having lived through two lifetimes, she now truly understood why her mentor was said to have a peculiar temper and only treat patients based on his preference. It turned out same prople should not be treated. Naomi took the herbs to the hospital. After handing over the herbs to Derek and instructing him on what to do, she left. 

Just outside the hospital, Zoey Allison appeared and strode up to Nani, directly linking arms with her. “Naomi, a very beautiful woman approached me, inquiring about you. My brother is better. The doctor said he can be discharged. That woman pumped me for information about you, but I didn’t tell her a thing” Zory was somewhat incoherent and far too anxious. 

“Let’s find a place to sit down and talk” Naomi Jeil Zoey to a café across from the hospital. Alter ordering two coffers, Zoey took several deep breaths, finally calming down. This woman came to me and offered me 3 million dollars right off the bar, which really scared me? 

Naomi straightened her back involuntarily. Do you remember what the woman looked like“” 

“She’s very beautiful, with a great figure, wearing high heels, and had a tiny mole on her nose. Oh, and she had this really pretty blue hair? 

A sinking feeling hit Naomi: this person wasn’t Jessie, Jessie had brown hair and no mode on her nose. Naomi asked. “She offered you a million for 

Zory looked around cautiously, as if she was up to something illicit. “She wanted me to find an opportunity to slip something into your drink” She pulled out a small glass vial from her pocket. Inside the vial was a tiny bundle of died lavender. “The woman told me to get this lavender into your water for you to drink, and then she’d give me 3 million. 

Zoey also placed a bank card in front of Naumi. “I took the card and the medicine. I was afraid that if I didn’t, this woman might go after other people who are close to you. Let’s keep the money for ourselves!” 

Naomi Laughed. “How do we keep the money for ourselves 

“Stage a play and take the 3 million” Zoey was eager to try. “Why not take the money from such a bad person? It could pay for the orphanage kids. to go to college.” 

“How do you know the woman wasn’t following you when you came to find me!” Naomi took the glass vial, it was tiny, only the size of a finger, and the dried lavender inside was even smaller. This thing seemed more like a decoration. She mused. When it comes to potency, some substances only need a tiny amount to kill an elephant. Others aren’t poisons, but their consequences are equally dire 

Naomi was accustomed to thinking the worst of people and imagining the worst–case scenarios. If someone was willing to spend 3 million to have Zoey drug her, things were not as simple as they seemed. “I didn’t expect my lite to be so valuable. Naomi sneered, recalling her past life where the Edwards family and Freddy had sold her for more than 3 million, trading for the prosperity of both families. The grand wedding of Rosalind and Freddy was held over her grave. 

Freddy was now a vegetable, but Rosalind made Nicolas Quinn, the head of the Quinn Group, her backer. Although the Quinn Group wasn’t asi large as the Fischer Group, it was said that Nicolas was particularly wealthy. If he doted on Rosalind, a million would be nothing to her. A realization struck Naomi: of course, how could she have forgotten Rosalind 

Zoey, keep the item and bank card with you for now. Don’t touch these two things casually. If that woman contacts you again, remember to secretly record her words. Naomi stood up. “Thave to leave for a while, be careful on your own.”
