Last night, Horace had only left his cell number, so when Steward reached out, he was taken aback. Had the boss been right? Were

they really coming to them?

After that, he hurriedly called his boss, "Boss, they've set up a meeting at Polanski Hospital for ten o'clock this morning."

Polanski Hospital was a well-known private medical center in Belloria, where every tick of the clock cost a pretty penny.

"Tell them, I'll take that island for 5 million."

"5 million?" Horace was stunned by the boss's hard bargaining. They had originally agreed to 40 million, and now they were down

by 35 million. Would he get his head chopped off when he relayed this?

"Don't worry, just say it."

It was hard for Horace not to worry; after all, they were dealing with Sean, the infamous Sean of Belloria. In the end, he conveyed

the message, and they only agreed to discuss it at the hospital.

On the drive to the hospital with Arabella, Horace was still anxious, "Boss, do you think they might set a trap for us, snatchup

as a hostage, and then threaten you to buy the island for 70 or 80 million to save me?"

After all, it wasn't just about Sean; no ordinary person would discount an island by 5 million. At the very least, it would be 10 or 20

million.

"Scared?" Arabella teased with a playful smirk, looking at his wimpy demeanor.

"Scared? Not me." Horace said with a lack of confidence as he drove, "My life isn't worth much anyway, Boss. Your herbs can save

many more lives. When the tcomes, don't worry about me; even if they put a knife to my throat, you must not give in. You

have to secure that island."

"Okay."

Seeing how readily Arabella agreed left Horace bewildered. Had he heard wrong? Was the boss really planning to give him up??

At that moment, he saw Arabella’s lips curl into a smile, and he knew the boss was just joking around. The boss had changed,

becoming more and more playful.

"Don't worry; his life is in my hands. Until the surgery is done, they won't dare touch you."

Horace knew he could count on the boss, "And after the surgery?"

"I'll get you out."

Horace was moved once again. With such a great boss, he would lay down his life in any emergency to ensure the boss got away

first.

They arrived at the hospital. Sean was already waiting in the VIP ward.

As Horace followed his boss into the room, he saw Steward and a dozen of his men on high alert, wary of their every move.

"You really are full of surprises, daring to pull a fast one right in front of me," Sean said from his hospital bed, exuding an air of

menacing nonchalance despite his pale lips.

Arabella remained cool and collected, "You're naturally suspicious. | had no choice but to slip the drug into my own drink."

"You were sure I'd swap with you?"

"Yes."

Steward, who was standing aside, was utterly shocked. He hadn't expected it was really this girl who had tampered with the drink.

How had she dared to do that? Despite the many eyes watching last night, she had uncorked and poured the drink in one fluid

motion, and even upon reflection, Steward couldn't pinpoint when she had slipped the drug into the drink.

This young lady was truly inscrutable. Sean smirked roguishly, intrigued by her, "Weren't you afraid of drinking that glass

yourself?"

"I have the antidote."

Sean chuckled again, impressed by the young woman's audacity.

"So, now you want to buy the island fromfor 5 million?" Sean's gaze settled on her.
