Chapter 278:
Karina, desperate, spat in Conleyâs face.
As the others rushed to subdue her, she yelled, âI agree! Iâll handle Mr. Shakicaâs task!â
âDonât try any tricks!â Conley snapped, pressing his foot forcefully against Karinaâs face, pinning it to the floor.
Meanwhile, Aldrich, engrossed in watching the surveillance footage, copied the video and forwarded it to Harlee.
âHarlee, this is quite the spectacle. Want to watch?â
He continued, âHarlee, how about something thrilling? What if we made this woman one of us?â A woman who had been held captive by Benedict for over three days and still asked if she was willing to take on a task was definitely no ordinary person.
Harlee responded with an okay emoji.
She had reviewed Karinaâs profile and recognized her potential as a valuable asset worth cultivating.
The following day, Aldrich, having learned that Karina had been taken to a hospital owned by Benedictâs mistress, set off immediately. Upon arrival, Aldrich skillfully evaded numerous security systems and slipped into a lounge to change into doctorâs clothes.
He then confidently entered Karinaâs hospital room.
As soon as Aldrich appeared, two bodyguards dressed in black stopped him.
âDidnât she just receive a check-up?â one asked.
âWe overlooked a test earlier,â Aldrich replied smoothly, showing no signs of anxiety.

âSkipping meals can lead to health complications. We need to conduct a thorough examination to avoid any serious issues.â
The guards, convinced by his reasonable explanation, allowed him to proceed.
Aldrich nodded to them and steadily walked into the room.
Approaching Karina, he quickly covered her mouth.
âShall we negotiate a business deal?â
Karina, initially dazed, suddenly became alert. She scrutinized Aldrich from head to toe and only relaxed slightly when she felt he wasnât an immediate danger.
Karina had made it this far due to her ability to discern a personâs strengths just by looking into their eyes. This was the very reason Benedict had kept her alive.
Right now, with just one single look, Karina knew Aldrich was no ordinary man. Should she scream, he wouldnât hesitate to kill her and then escape without leaving a trace behind.
âWhat sort of deal?â Karina asked in a low voice, her eyes flickering.
Aldrich casually hopped onto the window sill.
Benedict favored one-way glass for privacy, which allowed him to observe without being seen.
Hence, his mistressâs hospital utilized this type of glass.
Aldrich wasnât concerned about being observed.
More crucially, this room was custom-designed by Benedict for his private encounters with his lover, making it both luxurious and secure.
