“Help me fetch two sets of clothing and bring a particular person here.”
“Who is this person?”
This person was none other than Wren.
Apart from Wren, Eric couldn’t think of another person who could sneak into their home without anyone knowing and was familiar with a drug like Quinidine. Who else could it be?
He usually turned a blind eye because Emma insisted on dealing with matters on her own. He doted on his own woman, but he wasn’t going to remain quiet and allow others to act immorally.
Wren had made preparations for so long, but she meant absolutely nothing in Eric’s eyes.
…
As night hit, Luke arrived at Hyatt Regency and waited patiently outside Wren and Father Roberts’s home.
As soon as Wren saw Luke, she pretended to be calm, “Assistant Luke, you must be at the wrong place. Eric’s home is elsewhere!”
“Whether I have gone to the wrong place, we will know after you follow me,” Luke said impolitely, “The President is waiting for you.”
“When has Eric been this rude when meeting with his mother?” Father Roberts asked furiously, “Did that woman teach him to be like this?”
Luke was aware that these two people were utterly shameless, so he immediately gestured for his bodyguards to make a move.
Wren’s exp**ssion changed as she looked at Father Roberts for help. But, Luke stopped Father Roberts and said, “In order not to hurt the innocent, it’s best if Professor Roberts waits here.”
“Wren…Wren…”
“Luke, bring her back!”
Luke turned his head and boarded his car before he drove off with Wren. Father Roberts was worried that his wife would suffer, so he immediately boarded his own car and followed behind.
The corridors of the hospital were long and cold and stunk with the strong smell of disinfectant. However, the peaceful corridor was quickly filled with the sounds of Wren’s struggles.
In order not to disturb Emma, Eric walked out of the hospital room when Wren was still a fair distance away. He sat down on a chair and looked at Wren with deep meaning…
Seeing this, Wren couldn’t help but feel scared…
“How did you drug the soup?”
“What drug?” Wren pretended to be oblivious.
“Quinidine,” Eric said in a deep, dangerous, and of course, threatening tone.
Although Wren was frightened by Eric, she forcefully maintained her composure and continued to be in denial, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Eric, is this how you treat your mother?”
“Mother or not, let’s put that aside for now. I simply want to know if you are aware of a drug called Quinidine?”
Wren was forced to look directly into Eric’s eyes. She was paralyzed by his intimidating gaze. In fact, there was a voice in her head that was telling her, if she continued to remain stubborn, she would definitely be sliced to shreds. But, she couldn’t possibly confess to her crime.
“I am involved with biotechnology, of course I know what Quinidine is. Eric, what is the meaning of your question?”
“Did you start the fire in the afternoon?”
“What fire? What are you talking about? Eric, you need to tell me why you are treating me like this?” Wren speculated that Eric had no evidence, so she calmed down a little and questioned him confidently.
“Why are you wearing flat shoes?”
Eric looked down at Wren’s feet with ridicule as he changed the subject.
“Because it’s comfortable,” Wren replied.
“It’s covered in mud because you entered a garden, didn’t you? If I look for mud in my house, I should be able to find your footprints, right?” Eric guessed. “I assume you’re not planning to confess even if you die.”
“I never went to anyone’s back garden.”
“I never said it was a back garden,” Eric latched onto the main flaw in Wren’s words.
“I can never clarify myself in front of you. Since I am already in your hands, do whatever you want,” Wren knew that everything she said was wrong and was aware that Eric was a cautious person. So, she decided to keep her mouth closed. She refused to believe that her footprint could be found in Eric’s home.
Soon, Father Roberts arrived at the hospital. Seeing that Wren was being restrained in front of Eric, he immediately rushed over and gestured for the bodyguards to let her go, “Eric, are you crazy?”
Eric couldn’t be bothered talking to Father Roberts, so he raised his chin at Luke, gesturing for him to drag Father Roberts away.
“Eric, are you a monster? What are you trying to do to your parents?”
“I should be the one asking you that!” Eric refuted. “You may leave, but this woman needs to pay back tenfold for everything she has done to Emma.”
“Are you crazy? That b*tch is being punished for what she’s done. What has that got to do with your mother?”
Hearing his father call Emma a b*tch, Eric’s voice turned colder, “Twenty-fold!”
“What poison has that woman fed you?”
“Thirty-fold…”
“Is that b*tch…”
“Forty-fold.”
Father Roberts finally realized that he couldn’t insult Emma, so he finally changed from calling her a ‘b*tch’ to calling her ‘that woman’, “It seems like you’ve been truly bewitched by that woman. Let your mother go!”
“Luke.” This time, Eric did not want to waste his breath as he gestured for Luke to send the man away.
Seeing this, Wren fell into a panic as her hands began to tremble.
“What do you plan to do to your mother because of that woman? You’re an animal! I’m going to call the police!” Father Roberts pulled out his phone, but Eric made a phone call first.
“Chief Ren? I am Eric. My wife was drugged and almost lost her life. Please organize an investigation.” After hanging up the phone, Eric looked up at Wren and said simply, “How long do you think it would take for the police to solve the case?”
Wren was completely stunned and could not move.
At this time, Eric gestured for the bodyguards to let go of Wren. But, even though Wren was given her freedom…
…she did not move.
She never imagined that Eric would call the police.
She thought, based on their relationship, he would never go public with this incident. But, he ended up being so heartless.
“Wren, let’s go…Why aren’t you moving?” Father Roberts anxiously walked over and grabbed Wren’s hand. But, Wren brushed away his hand and rushed over to Eric.
“Eric, son, I didn’t do this on purpose. Please, spare me this time.”
“I really didn’t do it on purpose. I was momentarily possessed.”
Eric did not react. He simply tilted his head, “I gave you a chance.”
“What kind of chance is this?”
“You were the one that didn’t want it.”
Wren was in a panic. Without caring about her identity, she immediately dropped to her knees in front of Eric, “Please don’t report me to the police. I don’t want to go to prison.”
“Wren?” Father Roberts was surprised by the scene before him. “Are you admitting that the person that drugged that woman was you?”
