Chapter 82: Mr. Zamora is Sly
Now that they had identified what type of snake had bitten him, everything else would be easier -they just needed to get him the corresponding antivenom as soon as possible.
During the infusion, a delicate nurse originally came to administer the injection to Mr. Foley. Eddietook off his gloves and approached voluntarily.
Taking the syringe and medicine, he smiled warmly and said, "Mr. Foley has an esteemed status. It'sbetter to let me handle this."
The young nurse blushed and stepped back. Lacking the experience that Eddie possessed, she stoodon the side and observed.
Eddie squinted, injecting the potion into the syringe. Only after that did he grasp Kelvin's arm andfeel the veins.
As his large hand held the man's arm, his other hand exerted force. The sharp needle instantlypierced into his muscle.
"Apologies... Mr. Foley, it seems you were a bit tense, and I administered the wrong injection.”
If this medicine were injected into the muscles, it could trigger a tumor. Therefore, Eddie hurriedlywithdrew the needle, deliberately switching to a larger needle size.
"Mr. Zamora, this needle...” The young nurse's voice trailed off as she was unable to finish hersentence about the slightly larger needle.
Eddie gave her a gentle smile, as tender as the April breeze sweeping over the earth.
She blushed and stammered as she suddenly forgot what she wanted to say.
Chris stood at the doorway, his dark and deep-set eyes gazing at this young and promising doctor.Just now, the director said that Dr. Zamora was someone who had studied abroad and returned,and had even become a professor at the national biomedical institute.
How was it possible to make such a fundamental mistake?
If even Chris was suspicious, how could Kelvin not have any feeling about it?
In fact, his sharp gaze was fixed on the man, while the latter had a faint smile and his gaze wasgentle and harmless.
He was like a typical weak and scholarly person.
“Never mind, I won't bother with him," Kelvin thought to himself.
After finishing his IV treatment, he glanced at the clock on the wall and realized it was already afterthree in the afternoon. He had gone to visit the Todd family early that day and hadn't made it intowork yet.
Dressed in his attire, he disappeared with his assistant by his side.
Meanwhile, Eddie slowly collected all of the medical waste while muttering under his breath. "Whydoes Cheyenne like him? He's so icy."
Later that evening, lights shone brightly throughout the Todd mansion, making it as bright as day.The European-style wallpaper featured natural floral patterns embossed upon them along withluxurious furniture reminiscent of Louis XV era decor.
Kai wore a black checkered bathrobe, revealing well-defined muscles across his chest and armswhich exuded an aura of strength.
He sat under the light, thick reading glasses perched on his nose, engrossed in the documents in hishands.
Suddenly, a striking figure in a vibrant red silk slip dress entered the study.
Her hair fell in loose curls around her shoulders, and with an air of elegance, she walked up behindhim.
Her delicate arms wound around Kai's sturdy neck, and she playfully nuzzled against him.
The scent of her perfume was intoxicating, a warm and inviting aroma that filled the air.
Kai found it impossible to focus on the papers before him any longer. With a swift motion, hegrabbed her petite hand and pulled her into his embrace, locking eyes with hers.
She giggled sweetly, "Honey, what are you looking at?"
The man rubbed his throbbing temples and sighed helplessly. "What else? It's just something fromthis morning.”
Miss Lawrence came to deliver medicine as a guest to Iker but ended up getting bitten by a snake atthe Todd mansion. The Todds were clearly at fault in this matter, so Kai was trying to replace a way tocompensate Miss Lawrence.
Erica's eyes gleamed with malice when the incident from earlier that day was mentioned.
She deliberately blew hot air into his ear and said, "Honey, it's really strange how that snakemanaged to escape its box. Don't you think?"
"We already discussed this; it was because the servants weren't paying attention.” Kai felt uneasyabout continuing this conversation.
But Erica wasn't done yet; she had another shocking piece of news for him. "You probably don'tknow yet but yesterday Miss Lawrence caught one of the maids trying to poison Iker's food."
Kai slammed his hand on the table in anger; the loud noise caused even the lamp on top of it toshake violently. The light flickered dimly before returning back to normal.
In that momentary darkness, Erica's stunning face became obscured by shadows, making it difficultfor him to see her clearly.
"What! That maid is so bold!" Kai growled through gritted teeth with fury evident in his expression."Honey, don't be angry. I don't know why the maid was so bold, but think about it, who benefits themost from the death of Iker?"
"Miss Lawrence, perhaps she offended some people and that's why she was targeted,” she saidsarcastically, almost pointing out that "some people” referred to Kai's second wife and second son.Kai furrowed his eyebrows. He knew his little wife didn't get along with his second wife, but he hadbeen married to Thalia for many years and knew her personality well. He didn't want Erica to getinvolved because her previous way of speaking wasn't as sharp as this.
In his memory, Erica was a crybaby and obedient little girl, which was why he loved her more thanusual.
But that impression was based on her being young and innocent rather than backstabbing othersbehind their backs like now.
Kai's thoughts of making out with Erica were quickly extinguished.
He withdrew his hand and looked at Erica seriously, "I have something else to do. If you don't haveanything else, then go check on our children.”
Erica understood that she had likely angered him, so she held back any words left unsaid with agentle smile on her face,"Okay then, honey, you should rest early too.”
Mm.
Feeling angry inside herself when returning to her bedroom, Erica sat at edge of bed while crossingarms over chest without noticing when the nanny brought in her child.
"What's wrong?" The nanny handed Master Lewis to Erica, her voice trembling. "Madam Erica, Idon't know what happened, but Master Lewis suddenly developed a high fever and won't stopcrying.”
The child was over a year old and had some weight to him. Suddenly being handed over to Ericamade the crying worse, causing her frustration.
"What's the point of crying? Does it solve anything?"
"If the child has a fever, shouldn't you take him to the hospital? What good does it do for you togive him to me? I'm not a doctor!"
Erica angrily covered the child's mouth with her hand, which quieted his cries somewhat. But he washaving trouble breathing and his face turned red.
Kai watched this scene with anger boiling inside of him.
