Looking at it this way, Shannon certainly could not meet her demise


    so soon.


    If she did, Bethany’s days in the Salvador household would indeed be precarious. Also, who else


    would look out for her future then?

    Meanwhile, Simon was alone in the hospital, packing his belongings

    and preparing to leave Savrow temporarily.


    Suddenly, his phone on the table rang.


    Seeing that it was a call from Be, Simon’s face lit up with a smile


    as he promptly answered.


    “Yes, Ms. Thompson.”


    “Dr. Fairchild, are you still in Savrow?”


    “Yes, I’m still here. But I’m about to head to the airport. What’s the


    matter?”


    Be fell into a brief silence, then spoke in a serious tone. “Don’t leave just yet. I’ll help you


    reschedule.”


    “Is something wrong?”


    Simon’s expression turned concerned. “Do you have other ns? In that case, I won’t leave


    Savrow.”


    Actually, he did not want to leave at all. It was not the fear of trouble


    Chaser W


    that held him back, but rather the fear of being unable to assist Be.


    “Bethany will be arriving at your hospital soon. She’s definitely there to see you for Shannon’s


    condition.”


    Meanwhile, Be was in her vi in Savrow, tidying up the clothes left


    behind by Justin.


    Though she carried herself like a dutiful young wife, her words were chillingly cold. “I’ve heard that


    Chairman Salvador had Shannon confined to their house. Without his orders, she won’t be able to


    leave Tideview Manor. These past few days, she hasn’t been able to inject herself with the drugs,


    so I reckon she’s suffering both physically and


    mentally right now.”


    Simon calcted the timeline and nodded slowly. “Indeed, Shannon


    should have been here for her injection the day before yesterday. It’s


    already been two days, so she’s likely experiencing withdrawal


    symptoms.”


    “Yeah, that’s why Bethany’s undoubtedly here to ask you for the


    drugs.”


    Be hummed a tune as she hung up Justin’s robe in the wardrobe.“


    Once she’s here, just hand her everything and let Shannon have them


    all.”


    “Why, Ms. Thompson?”


    Simon was utterly puzzled. “If your intention was to torment Shannon, shouldn’t you cut off her


    supply of drugs and make her endure daily agony? Why hand them all over to her?”


    “Well, I’m not a saint. Why should I help her quit drugs?”


    Be lightly stroked Justin’s robe. Her beautiful eyes shimmered with a hint of softness, but her


    crimson lips curled into a cold smile. “If she wishes to destroy herself, I’m more than willing to assist


    her. Besides, isn’t it true that the more she indulges, the stronger the


    effect?”


    Simon came to a sudden realization


    Indeed, if they cut off Shannon’s ess to drugs now, it would just indirectly help her quit the drugs.


    But if the Salvador family noticed her abnormal behavior, they would surely tighten control over her,


    perhaps even secretly sending her abroad.


    That would risk undoing all the groundwork they hadid before.


    Only by allowing her to continue with her drug injections and letting her guard down could their n


    proceed smoothly.


    Ms. Thompson was truly remarkable, beautiful, intelligent, and


    ruthless!


    Meanwhile, Bethany had parked her sports car at the hospital


    entrance.
