Chapter 121
Monafett.
Rahman was extremely anxious once he finished talking to Mable.
After some thought, he decided he could not take it anymore and picked up his phone to call Blair.
"Hey, Mr. Fowler."
Rahman spoke after the call went through.
The person on the other end said nothing, but Rahman was not in a hurry. He said leisurely, "I have a business I'd like to discuss with you. Are you interested?" Blair responded after a moment of silence, "Go on."
"I know Fowler Enterprise is preparing to expand its market in Eastern Erebar. Coincidentally, I happen to have two unused private oil fields. I wonder if you're interested." Rahman's heart was heavy when he made the offer.
He was going all out for Mable by offering his most valuable private property.
The two oil fields were simply priceless. He did not believe Blair would not unmoved.
Sure enough, Blair asked, "What do you want?”
Rahman cut to the chase. "I want the Ice Jade Flower."
Richworth.
Blair was in his study. He held his phone in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Beneath the smoke, his defined yet cold face shone through.
Rahman was offering two private oil fields for the Ice Jade Flower.
No matter what, it was a deal Blair would only benefit from.
Nonetheless, Rahman's offer made Blair suddenly realize something he had been neglecting.
The Ice Jade Flower was a Chinese herb that could cure various poisons.
Did Mable want it for herself or someone else?
What was the old illness that was causing her so much pain?
Why did she need such a strong analgesic?
"Mr. Fowler, do we have a deal?"
Rahman urged Blair after not hearing an answer from him after a long time.
Blair asked in a deep voice, "What does Mable want the Ice Jade Flower for?"
Rahman snorted. "Don't you know what it does?"
Blair recalled Mable's painful appearance yesterday and felt his heart tighten. "Was she poisoned?" Rahman did not say anything.
He could not reveal Mable's biggest secret. It was a scar she did not want to face in her life.
That said, his silence made Blair even more certain of his suspicion.
"I can give her the Ice Jade Flower, but you must answer my question."
Rahman was surprised. He did not expect

"Who's the person Mable likes?"
Rahman was confused.
'Who does Mable like?
'How would I know?
'I only know that many people like her. As for who she likes...'
Rahman asked playfully, "Mabes likes many people. Who are you referring to?"
Blair almost wanted to crush his phone. His eyes darkened.
"Who does she like the most?"
"The person she likes the most..."
Rahman wanted to say that Mable liked him the most. However, Blair

He changed his answer after some thought and said, "The person Mabes likes the most is... Rory Hammond."
'Rory Hammond?'
It was an unfamiliar name.
"Mr. Fowler, I answered your question. You-"
"I'm a man of my word!"
Blair hung up and finished his cigarette. Afterward, he put it out, looking like he was about to kill someone.
In the nursing home.
Mable learned about her grandpa's situation from the attending doctor and checked him out of the hospital. Before 6:00 pm, Hugh arrived on a private jet.
The ambulance took Mable's
grandpa to the airport. They were et
about to board the plane whene several black sports cars sped in their direction.
The car in the lead was a Maybach Landaulet.
'It's him!
'He still came after all!'
