Chapter 137

she felt and crawled over to the poison-filled briefcase.Meanwhile, Xavier came face-to-face with Yulissa’s accomplice, Olivia, who was standing guard outside. “Young man, please save me. That evil woman kidnapped me here too. Please help me get away from here,” she shouted before Xavier could say anything.She was afraid that Xavier would do something terrible to her if he thought that she was an accomplice of Yulissa. That was why she chose to act pitifully.Xavier had no recollection of any memory that involved Olivia and didn’t bother asking her what she had been through. Thus, Xavier said coldly, “If you want to leave, leave now.”Olivia let out of sigh of relief when she knew no danger would befall her.As for Yulissa, she had seen everything that had gone down. She quickly threw the syringe at Olivia. The latter picked it up and pointed in Xavier’s direction before pointing at her feet helplessly.Yulissa understood what she meant immediately. When she saw that Xavier was about to disappear from her line of sight, Yulissa raged, “Xavier! What is the point of you being so good to Winnie? She doesn’t care that you are doing this for her. There are many men around her. There must be something going on between her and the man who helped her take control of Garland Group, and everyone knows about that.” “I don’t believe that you didn’t see the video from earlier tonight. Didn’t you see how close they were? Has she ever been so intimate with you? Xavier, you are much too arrogant. You thought you were so great. Yet, you are nothing in Winnie’s eyes. To her, you are nothing compared to the man who helped her gain control of Garland Group,” Yulissa continued.Recently, anything about Winnie could affect Xavier’s mood quickly. This situation worsened after Xavier became ill from the weird illness, making him lose control of his emotions.Even though Xavier had started to calm down before this, he began to lose his cool again when he heard Yulissa’s words.He stopped in his tracks suddenly.Although he didn’t move, the woman in his embrace shifted slightly.Winnie felt like her head and her eyes were as heavy as lead. Even though she wanted to sit up now, she couldn’t keep her eyes open.However, she could hear the voices around her. She had listened to every part of Xavier and Yulissa’s conversation. The way Olivia tried to gain sympathy from Xavier, the words Yulissa used to ruin her reputation, and what Yulissa said to anger Xavier were all heard.Winnie wanted to tell Xavier that everything he saw wasn’t the truth, that Olivia wasn’t as innocent as she looked, and that what Yulissa said wasn’t true. Nevertheless, in the end, she couldn’t open her eyes nor get a single word out of her mouth.Meanwhile, Olivia had silently crept over to where Xavier was standing after he stopped in his tracks.The man’s blood was boiling, and a buzzing noise filled his ears. On top of their dark surroundings, Xavier didn’t notice that a weak old woman was slowly approaching him.Suddenly, he felt a pain in his neck and a chill on his skin. With that, a syringe of unknown liquid was injected into his body.Xavier turned his head around slowly. He glared at Olivia. “What did you inject into me?”Yulissa chuckled. “What do you think I have injected into you, Xavier? I thought you already knew it very well. What do you think? Isn’t the experience of being unable to control your emotions freeing? Don’t you feel great?”“What do you mean?” Realization dawned on Xavier. “It was you! You are the reason why I’ve been feeling strange. Did you inject this into me last time when you pretended that you were kidnapped?”“Yes. That was the first time, and it had a long incubation period. That’s why it only showed symptoms after so long. The second time I injected this
