“It’s said that jealous men cannot think straight. I finally see it for myself.” Anson grins with disdain
because he never expects Alex to say something like that.
“Have I wronged the two of you?” Alex raises his eyebrows again.
“Don’t you know by now what condition your wife is in? Now she is in a state of fear all the time. Every
day she buries her head in her hands and keeps shouting not to touch her. Do you know how torturous
her nights are? She practically relies on sleeping pills to sleep every night, otherwise, she would be
shouting and screaming the entire night.”
“Many methods were used to calm her mood but none were effective. I had gone to numerous
psychiatrists. They told me that there are only a couple of ways left. One is to let her experience the
same trauma and the other is to look for the person closest to her.”
Anson takes great care to tell Alex these in detail.
“Don’t tell me this nonsense here. She can either choose to live or die. She can choose to do what she
wants to. Regardless, I will not bother with her anymore. Don’t ever appear here again. The
consequences of you interrupting my drinking is severe.”
After saying these, Alex walks in large strides to another side and hugs and caresses some women
and kiss them repeatedly on their cheeks.
This man is crazy and he doesn’t even care about his wife.
At this moment, Anson’s phone starts to ring.
As soon as he answers the call, an anxious voice says urgently.
“Something bad had happened. Miya had overdosed on sleeping pills. She is unconscious now.”
As soon as he hears this, Anson walks over to grab Alex’s hand, “Don’t continue to womanize here in
this bar. Do you know that something has happened to Miya? She had taken large amounts of sleeping
pills. Come with me to see her.”
“The music is very loud here. I don’t know what you are talking about.” Alex pretends that he can’t hear
what Anson is saying and grabs another woman to his side.
Anson gives up trying to convince him and rushes back to the hospital.
Anson paces up and down outside the treatment room, “How did this happen?”
How can this happen when he only went out for a short moment?
“We also don’t know how did it happen.” The servants are anxious as well.
In the end, the doctor comes out of the treatment room. Anson rushes forward and asks, “Doctor, is she
alright?”
“The patient took large amounts of sleeping pills but we had already flushed out her stomach. She is
out of any danger.”
His heart aches terribly for her when he sees that her face is as pale as a sheet of paper.
Why did she take so many sleeping pills?
Anson calls the servant over and questions her and finally, she admits. She says that Derrick came to
visit Miya. Then whatever happens next is obvious and it must be he who caused the trouble.
Hence he picks up his phone and calls Derrick.
“What else do you intend to do?” Anson demands furiously.
“Brother, I’m giving you a surprise, is that woman dead?” Derrick says smugly.
“Don’t interfere with this matter.” Anson is furious.
“From the sounds of it, she isn’t dead yet. Brother, you mustn’t blame me. This was ordered by father
and I must do as he instructed.”
“You’re lying!” Anson shouts.
“Brother, why should I lie to you? I mean what I say ever since I was a kid. Although I had been at
loggerheads with you, I have no reason to lie to you. You should know that if father wants to terminate
someone, it’s an easy task for him.”
“Don’t you try anything on her again! If you do, I guarantee that you’ll die a horrible death.” Anson
shouts.
“Brother, are you totally muddle-headed? We are related by blood and she is totally unrelated to you. In
what way is she so good? If father knows that she isn’t dead, he will surely send someone else over to
finish the job.” Derrick intentionally provokes him.
“Don’t you wag your poison tongue! I will not believe the utter nonsense that you are saying. How can
father do such a thing.”
“Bother, don’t be so naive. Normally you are very clear in your thoughts. Why are you so muddle-
headed now? Father had long been impressed with your talents and wanted you to take over his
business. Now this woman has become your stumbling block. How can he not help you remove what is
impeding you?” Derrick changes his tone and approach as he says.
“But rest assured, I will think of a way to help you because father is preparing to go over to the hospital
where you are. So, I advise you to leave the hospital as soon as you can. Otherwise, the
consequences will be dire if father sees you there.
“Do you know how skilled you are at lying? I almost believed you.” Anson suddenly realizes. His father
always loves him so how can his father do something to the woman he loves?
So there remains only one possibility which is these are all caused by Derrick.
“I already agreed to give you everything. What else do you want me to do?” He only wishes for this
woman to remain by his side forever. Is that so difficult?
“I didn’t expect you to be so intelligent and see through my lies. Since this is the case, then forget it. I’ll
look for you some other day.”
He hangs up the call in a hurry after he finishes.
Anson looks ahead furiously and grinds his teeth. He hates that he is helpless because of his own
negligence which is why Miya is currently in this state.
With the way things are, he can’t help but be involved. Derrick is ruthless and is capable of a multitude
of tricks. In the past, he used unscrupulous means to deal with Anson. Now that he is at a dead-end,
he will be even more ruthless. This time he used sleeping pills. Who knows what will he resort to the
next time?
The most dangerous place is the safest place. He wouldn’t dare to do anything under the watchful eyes
of father. So, Anson decided to bring Miya back to the Hunter residence.
