Chapter 1362 Karma
Juan instantly whipped out his phone to give Nicole a call and inquire whether jabbing someone a few times would result in the personâs death.
But before he could even make the call, a heavy blow unexpectedly landed on the back of his neck.
âA s-sneak⦠attack!â
Seeing stars, he collapsed onto the ground.
Sally then jumped down from the treatment bed and looked down at Juan, who was lying on the ground. Drawing her leg back, she gave him a hard kick. âYou jabbed me four times, so Iâll pay you back twice⦠No, three times, five times, and even ten times!â
After doing that, she exerted all her strength to haul him up from the ground onto the treatment bed.
When she was done, she even went out to buy a cup of milk tea to replenish her energy. Then, she sat before the treatment bed and sipped her tea languidly.
The moment Juan came to, he was greeted by the sight of her drinking milk tea leisurely.
âYouâre awake?â
âH-How dare you sneak up on me?â
Sally blinked her eyes, feigning ignorance. âWhat do you mean? I donât get it.â
Oh my God, sheâs still putting on a show!
His temper spiking, Juan made to spring up from the bed, only to realize that he couldnât move at all, his hands and feet bound. At a closer look, he noticed that the rope was thick and the binding secure, so struggling wouldnât do him any good.
No wonder she dares to drink milk tea so leisurely in front of me!
âWhy did you tie me up?â Juan demanded sharply.
âIt wasnât me who tied you up!â
âIt wasnât you who tied me up or sneaked up on me? Weâre the only ones here, so was it an apparition if not you? I just knew that youâre not simple, but I didnât expect you to stoop to this!â
âSince thatâs what you think of me, Mr. Juan, I wonât waste my breath defending myself. Now, Iâve got something very important to tell you.â
âWhat is it?â
At the sight of Sallyâs solemn expression, Juan turned somber as well.
âYouâve been poisoned. After you were knocked out earlier, someone fed you poison.â
Juan eyed her dubiously. âStop making up lies here! You were the one who knocked me out, so it must have been your doing if Iâd truly been poisoned!â
âHow could I possibly feed you poison? Iâd only cure you!â
âCure?â
As Sally looked at the somewhat nervous Juan, she inwardly jumped for joy.
Itâs finally time for me to take my revenge! Just you wait, kid!
Turning, she looked at the exquisite box with silver needles at the side. She then unhurriedly took out two needles from the bunch of neatly arranged silver needles that glinted coldly.
âMr. Juan, the person who poisoned you told me that only acupuncture will work to cure you. Although Iâm not skilled in acupuncture, he taught me a bit, so donât worry. Youâll be fine after I insert the needles at a few acupoints. Please bear with it, okay?â
Argh! She spouted so much nonsense about me being poisoned and curing me, but her motive is none other than to jab me for revenge! How utterly evil!
âHow many times are you going to jab me?â
âI donât want to jab you, but the poison will remain in your body if I donât do so. Just bear with it for a bit. Iâm only doing this for your own good.â
After saying that, Sally jabbed Juan in the shoulder.
âOuch! Why does it hurt so much? Youâre truly vicious, woman! Youâll damage me. You canât afford to compensate me if anything happens!â
âThis is just the first needle, yet youâre already wailing like a baby. I hope you wonât pass out like me earlier after the dozens to follow.â Sally gazed at Juan with sympathy written all over her face.
Juan grew livid upon hearing that. âPfft! You were merely faking it just now! If you really jab me dozens of times, I might pass out for real. Not only that, but you might even kill me! Hurry up and untie me!â
âDonât worry. Iâll untie you after Iâm done.â
When she had finished saying that, she brandished the silver needle in front of him and jabbed him on the shoulder again.
With that, Juan let out another howl. I know karma is a b*tch, but I didnât expect it to come back to bite me so quickly!
