Theo laughed. "There's no use acting cute. You have to drink it."

After being with him for so long, | knew he would relentlessly persuadeto drink the ginger juice if | refused to

drink it now. He would only stop after | grew irritated by his persuasion.

Since | would still have to drink it, | might as well drink it now to save our breaths.

| sighed helplessly and took the glass from his hand. After pinching my nose, | downed the contents in a single

gulp.

"Good girl.” Theo stroked my head with a smile.

| smacked his hand away and lay back down on the bed.

He did not disturbthis tand letsleep.

However, as | felt physically and mentally unwell, | slept very soundly this time.

Theo had already gone to the office when | woke up the next morning. | read the note he leftand got out of

bed to go downstairs.

Quinn and Cindy were still sleeping, so | ate my

breakfast before they got up and went back to my room to lie down again.

There was nothing much going on in the company, so | merely sorted out a few documents at home. | was on my

period, so | rested for two days. This was the only way | could get it to stop hurting.

At nine o'clock in the morning, | received a phone call after a video conference but no one spoke. | thought it was

a spam call, so | hung up and ignored it.

After about ten minutes, the sphone number calledagain.

A spam call would not ring twice, so | picked it up this tand asked indifferently, "What do you want?"

"Miss Lane." It was a man, and his voice sounded a little familiar.

| looked down to ponder who it could be. "Lawrence?"

"I'm honored that you still remember me, Miss Lane." Lawrence's voice sounded weary. "Are you free now, Miss

Lane? I'd like to meet up with you."

| frowned. "Are you in Whaldorf City?"

"Yes, | chere just to see you, Miss Lane."

| thought about it and replied, "Sendyour location, then."

| would give Heidi a call to ask about it before | decided if | wanted to go.

After hanging up the call, | called Heidi.

The call was answered and | said, "Lawrence is in Whaldorf City. He wants to see me."

"Okay." Heidi smiled. "I think the police are hot on his trail, so he left Salt City in advance. He's desperate to save

his life but how are Petra and Grayson supposed t o save him when they can’t even take care of themselves?

They might even send him to his doom sooner, so it's inevitable that he'd cto you."

| must admit that Heidi was really clever. She was a woman capable of doing big things.

Heidi continued to say, "In fact, he should have approached you immediately after Benny got into trouble but he

chose to watch from the sidelines and see if things would becserious. That has cost him greatly. Everything

will be over for him once the police find him and take him away."

I chuckled. "If | refuse to meet him, then all he can do i s surrender himself to the authorities."
