Chapter 668 Antidote
Henry was driving while Susan sitting next to him leaned against the window silently.
She couldn't get Manuel and his distant back out of her mind.
In some way, she could feel the anger in him.
"Henry," Susan called him.
Henry was driving seriously. On hearing Susan's voice, he turned his head to look at her. "What's wrong, Susan? Do you want to vomit? I will stop right now."
"No,"
"Then what's wrong?"
"I think we..." Susan looked at him.
Henry held the steering wheel tightly.
"We can't go back to where we were." The words she didn't say were finally uttered.
"Do you like Manuel?" Henry asked.
Susan interlocked her fingers. She didn't want to hurt Henry. But she was afraid they wouldn't be happy if she didn't make it clear.
"I thought you knew it," Susan answered.
It was pretty straightforward.
"I thought you would come back to me as long as I worked hard."
"I have tried. But I found that the more time we spent together, the more I want to escape..." Susan didn't know how to say it, "Let's do this. I can make up for you whatever you want. My father gave you 20% of the company at the beginning, and you said that Manuel took it away. Now I will help you get it back, or give you more, 25 or 30? Do you think it is OK?"
"Am I that unbearable in your mind?" Henry asked her painfully.
"No. I just don't know how to make you feel better, and I just..."
"Susan," Henry interrupted her.
Susan bit her lips. Every time she broke up with Henry, she always felt she was bad.
"Didn't we agree one month?"
Susan was stunned.
"When I proposed, you promised me you would give me an answer in one month." Henry said, "Give me another month, OK? If you still decide to leave in a month, I will let you go."
Susan saw the sadness and humble attitude in his eyes. She thought a month would pass pretty fast. However, she would rather do nothing to harm him.
"OK." Susan nodded.
Henry feigned a smile. Although he was painful inside, he was grateful.
Susan averted her eyes from Henry and gazed out of the window, feeling deeply remorseful.
On the same night, Manuel sat in the car with a frigid face.
The driver didn't know what was wrong with him and he even dared to speak with him due to his horrible expression, although he did want to remind Manuel of Susan who was left in the club. When they arrived, Manuel opened the door and left.
The driver felt Manuel was a bit weird tonight, compared to what he was usually like when he was drunk.
His inner desire had not been out of control until he went back home and sat down on the couch. The drug finally took effect.
Gritting his teeth, Manuel picked up the phone to call Theodore.
Theodore answer, "Manuel, can't you sleep?"
"You have the antidote to x drug?" Manuel tried to calm down.
"What?"
"I was drugged. Ask someone to bring me the antidote. I'm waiting at my house."
"Well..."
Before Theodore finished his words, Manuel hung up the phone. He thought there was an antidote and Theodore who was well acquainted with those clubs could replace it for him.
Since his physical reaction was more and more obvious, he couldn't talk to others rationally.
Theodore held the phone and was stunned.
Unfortunately, as far as he knew, there was no such antidote but the only way to relieve the drugged person was through women.
Theodore reacted to it quickly.
He took out his phone and was about to replace a woman he had bedded before for Manuel.
But thinking of the fact that Manuel had a passion for cleanliness, he dared not to send him a whore. Meanwhile, Susan's name came across his mind. Although he didn't want Susan to be close to his buddy, he had to admit that Manuel still loved her. Otherwise, Manuel wouldn't have given 10 billion to Phillips Bank and agreed to the conditions given by his venture capital that he should subsidize with his private money.
After thinking for a while, Theodore called Susan.
Susan just got home and felt bad after parting with Henry.
She lay in the bathtub and was shocked to receive the call from Theodore.
"Are you sleepwalking?" Susan was unkind to Theodore.
"You are sleepwalking!" Theodore was not friendly to her either.
"Then why are you calling me, you freak?" She was in a bad mood.
"If it weren't for Manuel, I wouldn't call you."
"What do you want?" She and Theodore never got along if they were not drunk.
"Something happened to Manuel."
"What?" Susan stood up from the bathtub, "Car accident?"
"What the hell are you talking about?" Theodore covered his ears.
"Didn't you mean that?"
"If I meant that, would I be so fucking calm? And what could you do even if there was a car accident?"
"
." Susan sat back in the bathtub.
"No car accident. But there was a physical problem. Now you go to his home to see him."
"What physical problem?"
"You'll know when you get there!" Theodore was not patient.
