Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

Adonis lifted his head, giving the bodyguard a glance. The bodyguard promptly understood, tactfully left, and closed the door behind him.

In the private room, only Freda and Adonis remained.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Adonis appraised Freda from head to toe, his desire undisguised.

Despite feeling uneasy all over, Freda walked over and sat on the sofa. “Adonis, I’m here.”

“Miss Huggins, do you want me to take care of that woman, Jane?” Adonis abruptly stood up, appearing tall and slender due to his thin build.

Dressed in a high-end suit, he couldn’t hide the aura of ruthlessness surrounding him.

“Yes!” Freda gritted her teeth, “I want Jane dead!”

Adonis swayed the wine glass in his hand, gazing through the floor-to-ceiling window at the twisting figures on the dance floor. He squinted and said, “As long as you ask, I guarantee it can be done.”

“Really?” Despite hearing about Adonis’s reputation before coming, Freda still had some doubts. After all, her previous attempts to deal with Jane had all ended in failure.

“Since you came to me, you must have heard about my reputation in the underworld. Do you know how I earned the name Adonis?” Adonis sipped his red wine, lips curling up. “Back then, I climbed up step by step. Someone slashed my face, disfiguring it. Without blinking, I chopped off that person’s head!”

His grim expression sent a chill down Freda’s spine.

Instinctively, she wanted to escape. Her intuition told her that this man was dangerous!

But when she thought about Jane, that wretched woman, she could endure it.

“What are the conditions?” Freda asked, knowing he was negotiating with her.

Seeing Freda cooperating, Adonis, with a satisfied and ruthless glint in his eyes, finished his wine in three words, “Sleep with me.”

Faced with Adonis’s blatant gaze, Freda’s expression faltered.

In fact, she had guessed the result before coming.

As adults, and considering Adonis had pursued her for many years, she knew what to expect from his personality. Wouldn’t he take advantage of the opportunity to force her?

The thought of submitting herself to such a ruthless and ugly man made Freda feel nauseous.

However, for the sake of getting rid of Jane, she agreed!

After all, she had been intimate with people before; one more time wouldn’t make much difference!

Freda clenched her fists tightly, stood up, and approached Adonis.

“I accept this condition.” Freda bit her lip, determined to speak.

As her words fell, Adonis pressed her against the floor-to-ceiling window. His large hand quickly gripped her shoulder, and the collar was swiftly torn off.

“Here? Right here?” Freda gestured below, fully aware that anyone looking up could see her embarrassed state.

After all, she was a young lady from the Huggins family, someone with status and reputation!

“What? Unwilling?” Adonis leaned into her ear, savoring the scent of her body, sniffing her hair. “Don’t forget, you’re the one begging me. You don’t have the right to choose.”

Freda’s pupils contracted; she couldn’t forget that the man pressing her down was Adonis, a ruthless figure in the underworld.

The ship had sailed, and she couldn’t turn back.

Freda closed her eyes, accepting it. Adonis quickly stripped her of all her clothes.

A sense of shame spread through every cell of Freda’s body.

She tightly clenched her fists.

All of this was thanks to that wretched woman, Jane!

Jane stole Osborn, leading to Freda’s humiliation by Adonis!

This debt would be repaid soon!

Jane!

As long as you’re not dead, I, Freda, will not rest until I get my revenge!

After Jane finished work, concerned about Old Pansy’s condition, she went directly to the hospital.

Upon entering the ward, she saw Dr. Pater and several other doctors conducting an examination on Old Pansy.

“Dr. Pater, how is Old Pansy?” Jane walked up, expressing her concern.

Dr. Pater, upon seeing Jane, smiled and said, “Miss North, your timing is perfect. We just finished examining Old Pansy, and there doesn’t seem to be any major issue. Take a look for yourself.”

“Okay.” Jane nodded.

She approached and carefully examined Old Pansy. Following Rory’s instructions, she administered a round of acupuncture to the bedridden Old Pansy.

Her method could only temporarily stabilize his condition and prevent further deterioration.

Jane couldn’t perform the final awakening acupuncture that Rory had mentioned.

While Jane was performing acupuncture on Old Pansy, doctors with decades of experience in medicine gathered around her, observing and learning. They took notes attentively, afraid of missing any details.

If outsiders witnessed this scene, they would surely be surprised, eyes wide open.

Renowned figures in the medical field were now humbly learning from a young girl in her early twenties.

“All right, from now on, check Old Pansy’s whole body every three hours. If anything unusual happens, notify me immediately,” Jane said, looking at Dr. Pater standing beside her.

Dr. Pater promptly agreed, “Certainly, Miss North.”

“Then I’ll be leaving.” Jane turned around.

“Miss North, are you leaving already?” Dr. Polly saw Jane about to leave and felt a slight sense of loss.

He hadn’t learned enough yet.

Jane was right last time; traditional Chinese medicine was profound. His previous arrogance made him realize how much he admired Jane now.

“Yes.” Jane could naturally sense Dr. Polly’s feelings, but she had no time for teaching.

As she exited the hospital, the sky had turned dark.

Dark clouds covered the sky, and a torrential rain poured down. Jane, without an umbrella, was instantly soaked.

Jane furrowed her brow; what lousy weather.

She quickly got into her car, intending to go home and change clothes. She caught a cold the last time she got soaked and couldn’t afford to worsen her condition.

Jane gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands and sped away.

At a red light, Jane subconsciously applied the brakes.

But there was no response to the brakes!

What was going on?!

Jane pressed the brakes harder, but still no response!

Jane’s pupils contracted; someone had sabotaged her brakes!

Someone wanted her dead!

Jane controlled the steering wheel to make a turn in time. She continued trying to brake, but it was futile.

She smelled a conspiracy; someone had long planned to harm her.

“Damn it!” Jane frowned, her strong mentality instantly calming her down.

She opened the navigation, checked the traffic, and tried to avoid red lights, steering the car in a secluded direction.

She needed to force the car to stop.

In a busy area, causing a chain reaction of accidents would be catastrophic!

Jane turned the steering wheel and drove into a deserted alley, filled with abandoned and broken-down trash.

This was it! This was the best spot to force a stop!
