Chapter 504: The Cost of Getting the Antidote
Shen Heyu came to find Chen Wenzhou today with only one purpose, to obtain the antidote so her daughter could suffer less.
Upon hearing Shen Heyu’s words, Chen Wenzhou laughed, turned around, and leisurely sat down on the nearby sofa, savoring a sip of coffee.
"Miss Shen, would you like to sit down and taste the coffee from my office? My secretary might not be skilled at other tasks, but his coffee brewing is truly exceptional." Chen Wenzhou knew Shen Heyu was desperate, but he deliberately beat around the bush, causing her to become even more anxious.
"What exactly will it take for you to give me the antidote?" Shen Heyu had no time for guessing games; she had only one goal.
Seeing how anxious Shen Heyu was, Chen Wenzhou could guess the seriousness of the matter.
"Miss Shen, coming here bluntly demanding the antidote, you should at least tell me what kind of antidote you expect me to give you. If it’s within my power, I will certainly provide it."
"Don’t play dumb with me. You poisoned Yuexue, didn’t you? Give me the antidote now. Just state your terms, and I will do my utmost to meet them."
Shen Heyu, thinking of her daughter still unconscious in the hospital bed, felt as though her heart was being fried in boiling oil—she had no time for Chen Wenzhou’s evasiveness.
Chen Wenzhou saw the expression on Shen Heyu’s face and smiled. He could tell that today Shen Heyu was genuinely here to discuss this matter because she had no other choice; besides capitulating, she could only wait for her daughter’s death.
"My demand is simple, that your marriage with Lu Yi continues. I don’t care whether your marriage is real or fake, but it must not end."
