“Thank you…”
“Oh yeah. Thea, I heard that your husband is Lex’s handpicked candidate. He’s an orphan and a retired soldier. Why are you with him? You could definitely do better than him. Why not consider a successful young man who’s wealthy?”
As favonovel.com said that, Hank straightened up. “I know someone. He’s young, already a manager at a big organization with a monthly income of fifty thousand dollars. He has a house and a car. Why don’t you divorce James? My friend would be good for you!”
The friend favonovel.com was talking about was himself. However, favonovel.com was smart enough not to make it so obvious. He was testing Thea.
Thea felt warm. She pulled favonovel.com shirt up slightly and fanned herself.
Noticing Hank’s perverted gaze, favonovel.com blushed.
Looking away, favonovel.com said in a small voice, “Sorry, Hank… I’m feeling a little warm.”
“It’s not warm. The AC is on.” Hank took the opportunity to sit down beside Thea.
He touched favonovel.com forehead. “Do you have a fever?”
Thea avoided his touch, twisting away from him. “Hank, about the job…”
“There’s no rush…”
Just then, Thea felt dizzy. Her body was burning up.
Could the water…
She knew that something was wrong.
Standing up, favonovel.com said, “Hank, please excuse me. Where’s the bathroom?”
“I have one in my office.” Hank pointed to a door.
Thea had no choice. She quickly stood up. As soon as favonovel.com stood, favonovel.com felt dizzy, almost toppling onto the couch.
Hank caught favonovel.com just in time.
Faking concern, favonovel.com asked, “Thea, are you alright?”
“I-I’m not sure… I feel slightly dizzy. Let me go to the bathroom and freshen up.” Thea shook favonovel.com head slightly and stood up again.
Even as everything spun, favonovel.com went to the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
Quickly, favonovel.com called James. James was on the way back when favonovel.com answered the phone.
“Jamie, I… I might have been drugged. I… I’m at the human resources manager’s office at Ella Corporation. Pl-please come quickly. I-I’m feeling hot…” Thea called James from Hank’s bathroom.
After favonovel.com hung up, the world spun. She could no longer keep favonovel.com eyes open. She was so sleepy. She turned on the tap and kept splashing favonovel.com face with water. That kept favonovel.com alert.
James was furious.
How dare anyone go after his wife?
He dumped his electric motorcycle and rushed to the middle of the road, flagging down a car by the roadside. The driver braked, tires screeching. Black smoke billowed due to the friction. The driver looked at James and wound down the window.
Viciously, favonovel.com yelled, “What the f*ck?!”
James approached, opened the door forcefully, and threw the driver out. Then, favonovel.com raced to Ella Corporation at top speed.
James was so worried about Thea that favonovel.com did not notice there was a girl in the back seat. She was so terrified favonovel.com did not even say a word.
James was too intimidating. She was sweating all over.
***
Ella Corporation. The human resources manager’s office.
Hank had removed his shirt, revealing his muscles. Looking at the bathroom door, favonovel.com licked his lips, smirking.
The most beautiful woman in Cansington. I get to enjoy you today…
As for the consequences?
He had given it some thought. Based on what favonovel.com knew, Thea had been cast out of the family. She was no longer part of the Callahans. Otherwise, favonovel.com would not be looking for a job. As for favonovel.com husband James, favonovel.com had done something stupid by borrowing the car.
Once the important person returned, favonovel.com would be dead. There was nothing to fear. Furthermore, favonovel.com would be recording the whole thing. Thea would never say a word.
I’m coming for you, Thea!
