Chapter 618

Edward turned to Lara in puzzlement with a completely lost look on his face. Even though he could hear everything

that he was saying, he was unable to understand a single word of it.

Shaking her head out of instinct, she forced herself to calm down, but her face, which was losing its color with

every passing second, had already betrayed her emotions.

She shakily felt that maybe Eugene knew much more than she thought!

"Aren't you coming back to take a seat and listen?" Eugene asked.

Now that he was baffled by Eugene's actions, Edward returned to their seats while holding Lara's hand. Since they

couldn't leave anyway, standing there would just make things more awkward for them.

Also, he would like to know just exactly what Eugene was up to.

Seeing that Edward had taken his seat, Eugene then shifted his gaze to the higher management of the company

and began, "Actually, it's true that I was hospitalized this time because of poisoning. Someone placed an hourglass

on my desk, claiming that it can help with calming the nerves, but the scent emitting from it contains cyanide.

However, because of the scent, we couldn't tell anything unusual about it. As everyone knows at the time, North

was with me every day at the office. Not only that, a candy found in his pocket one day also contained that

component, but with a much higher dose. Luckily, he didn't take the candy, but he was still poisoned and suddenly

passed out a few days ago. After a checkup by Dr. Maxwell, we found out that he's poisoned, and I have symptoms

of poisoning as well after a test. That's why we were hurriedly hospitalized. In spite of that, North's condition is

worse than mine, and the doctor said that he might have lost his life if we were just a little later with the

treatment."

As he spoke, he turned to Lara with a murderous look in his eyes. "I would like to ask, just how much do you hate

me that not only would you want to kill me, you would even involve an innocent child?"

A dumbstruck Edward glanced at Lara out of reflex before he pointed at Eugene and angrily shouted, "What

nonsense are you spouting, Eugene? Why do you say this is Lara's doing? Why would she harm you?"

Casting a glance at Edward, Eugene answered, "You're always speaking up and clarifying for her. Sometimes I really

wonder whether you're really that dumb or it's just a pretense. Otherwise, how can you not know whether the

person sharing a bed with you is a mortal or a devil?"

A stunned Edward gawked at him with doubt in his eyes as he wondered, What does he mean by that?

At this point, Lara feigned anger as well. "What other accusations are you going to throw at me, Eugene? When did

I ever place an hourglass on your desk? Everyone knows that I haven't been to the company for a very long time!"

Eugene sneered. "Do you think I'll stop you two from leaving without any proof? It's true that you didn't do that, but

you ordered Anna Maxwell to place it."

When she heard that, Lara's expression changed. Oh no, he really knows everything, she realized. But how?

After Anna's plastic surgery, even she couldn't recognize Anna, so how did he recognize the woman? If he knows

that Samantha is, in fact, Anna, does he also know that I'm a shareholder of Kanes Corporation? Then, did he

already find out about me and Gerald?

At the thought of this, a chill ran down her spine all the way to her toes and she could distinctively feel her hairs on

her back standing on its end.

However, she couldn't just be a sitting duck, so she turned to him and asked angrily, "I don't know anyone named

Anna Maxwell, so what did I order her to place?"

Eugene gave a cold smile before he uttered, "You haven't even learned, do you?"

Meanwhile, Edward looked from one person to the other with the feeling that he had been left out of the

conversation. Why couldn't he understand a single thing they were speaking about? Who was Anna Maxwell?

"Bring her in!" Eugene ordered.

After he said that, the conference door opened to reveal Anna being brought in by a bodyguard. On the surface,

she appeared to be alright.
