Chapter 469

Chapter 469 Bewildering “Lamont, please pretend that you didn’t hear me… Please!” Jairo put his palms together and kept begging. “If you want to know anything, you can ask my boss when the time is right. Don’t tell her that I revealed it at this time! Otherwise, I’ll be finished!”

Lamont did not want to make things difficult for him. He just said, ’Tell me, I will definitely keep it a secret. I will not reveal a single word to Paige.”

“Lamont, there are some things that even Martin doesn’t know… Please have mercy and pretend to know nothing! Please.”

If Paige knew that he had a loose tongue again, he would definitely transfer him to the Triangle Area. In that case, he would not be able to protect her all the time! His men were so weak. At this critical moment, he had to protect his boss in person.

At this moment, Paige appeared. “What are you guys talking about?”

Seeing that Jairo was putting its palms together and begging for something, she was a little confused.

“What are you begging Lamont for?”

“Boss, you’re here…’ Jairo felt that it was doomed and quickly lied. “It’s…Lamont who wants to introduce me to a beautiful woman…”

He took out the gif and showed it off. “I’m begging Lamont to give me her contact information…’

“…” Paige was a little speechless. How could he still think about this kind of thing at a time like this?

She said coldly, “Get out of my way.”

“Yes, yes, yes…” Jairo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his boss didn’t doubt it.

“According to the comparison, the blood in the living room and the yard matches Mr. and Mrs. Jacob.”

As soon as Paige finished speaking, Lamont’s attention was instantly diverted.

’You mean, Yana’s parents are injured?”

“Yes,” explained Paige. ’A village woman said a few months ago that a group of people went to Yana’s house at about two or three a.m. They were walking around in the yard in the rain. I think they were looking for her at that time and accidentally disturbed her parents, who were injured in the dispute.”

After a brief pause, she continued her analysis, “That village woman said that in the past four to five days after that group of people appeared. Professor Jacob’s door had never been opened. The bloodstains seemed to have happened in the living room, and then they were moved to the yard. So I guess that the injured Mr. and Mrs. Jacob might have been taken away by that group of people. As for where they went, what they did, and how they were treated are not clear.”

According to the village woman’s words, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob came back four or five days later. Not long after they came back, they went out to find Yana.

Therefore, their disappearance that night was the key to solving the mystery.

“Has the powder been detected?” Lamont looked at his sister with a heavy heart.

His sister had just said that the powder contained a kind of Dragon Herb, which was highly toxic…

“In addition to the Dragon Herb, there are 16 kinds of herbs. Each of them contains toxicity.’

“What if we combine them together?’

“The toxicity is even stronger.’ Paige calmly said, “Just now, one of the mice in the laboratory died.

After consuming it, he immediately died.’ She didn’t even have time to save it…

Lamont’s heart tightened. “You mean, Yana might have already taken thepoison…’

He thought, “Does she disappear for a year because she was forced to take poison and had her body thrown away?

“Therefore, none of the forces could find her…

“Because she is no longer in this world…?”

Thinking of this, Lamont’s heart felt like suffocating.

“Not necessarily.” Paige analysed, “What if this medicine is for someone else?”

“What do you mean?’ Lamont didn’t understand.

“You see, so many people are looking for her. This medicine may also be used for self-protection. In order not to be discovered, it is stored in a bottle of vitamin C. That bottle looks very old. It should have been used for a long time.”

“Boss, according to what you said, how many people will she use this poison to…”

Paige gave him a look, and Jairo immediately shut up.

“Yana is so weak. It’s possible that this medicine is really used for selfprotection…”

Could it be that she had other ways to protect herself besides drugging them? She was so weak, so she shouldn’t have…

“Not necessarily.” Paige dismissed his guess. “Didn’t the four people inside say that Yana is a traitor? If she is also one of them, then her skills are very likely to be similar to theirs.”

It should have nothing to do with “weak”… But as for whether she had any skills or not, further investigation was required.

“No, that’s impossible…” Lamont recalled everything that had happened between him and Yana. He could not tell that she was a skilled fighter. She was probably even afraid of cockroaches…

“We can only continue our investigation.’ Paige looked at the time. “Lamont, it’s getting late. It’s almost 11 o’clock. Let’s go home first.’ It was too late. Her parents would be worried.

“Mom and Dad called me a few times just now. I don’t know if they called you or not.”

Lamont took out his phone and looked. There was not a single call…

“It’s no use worrying now. Let’s go.”

Seeing that his sister was tired, Lamont could not continue to trouble her. He nodded and drove her home.

On the way, Lamont heard his sister’s stomach growling. He realized something and asked, “Paige, are you hungry? Have you had dinner?’

“I’ve eaten it.’ Paige lied. His stomach growled again. Lamont glanced at her. ’You’re still lying to me.”

“Did you not eat for the whole day in order to catch those people?’

“Yes, I had lunch.”

“Then you haven’t eaten anything tonight.” Lamont felt even more guilty.

“Little girl, I will feel bad if you continue like this. No matter what, you have to take good care of your body first.’

“I’m not hungry.”

As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach growled again.

Lamont’s heart ached and he found it funny. “What do you want to eat? I’m hungry too. Shall we buy some supper home?”

“Okay.” After thinking for a while, she blurted out, “Let’s have some snacks.”

It’s late at night. She didn’t want to eat anything else. She had other things to do… It would be bad if she had a stomachache.

“Okay, I know a super delicious shop that specializes in making snacks. Let’s buy more snacks and take them home later.’

“Alright.”

In Larsen Villa.

Patricia looked at the time. It was 11:30 p.m. Why hadn’t Lamont come back yet?

There was still no movement downstairs. She sat in front of the dressing table and waited. She really wanted to know where Lamont and Paige had gone! Why hadn’t they returned after such a long time?

It was not until she heard the sound of a sports car outside the villa that she looked out of the window.

Sure enough, it was Lamont’s car!

She thought, “Lamont is finally back!

“Paige has occupied his time till this time. Is she afraid that Lamont will still have time to accompany me if she returns too early…”
