Chapter 266: The Incident Occurs! (2/2)



"As long as you're happy." Xiliya took Jiang Ning's arm. "I'm going back to my room with Shengbao first. When you go downstairs, remember to tell the hotel housekeeper to bring up some tea and snacks."

“Okay, Miss Ryan.” Jennifer nodded, stepped into the elevator, and pressed the close button.

Jennifer breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Cyria and Jiang Ning's retreating figures.

call--

fine!

Fortunately, Cyril did not notice anything unusual about her.

In the last instant before the door closed, Jiang Ning seemed to sense something, and turned her head slightly to look at Jennifer.

Jennifer was caught off guard by Jiang Ning's sudden turn around and instantly became nervous and guilty.

Her gaze was clearly very faint, yet Jennifer felt as if she were being pricked by thorns.

It's as if some dark, rotten part of your heart has been peeled out and placed under the sunlight, making it hard to breathe.

bite!

Fortunately, the elevator doors closed quickly.

Jennifer felt completely drained and leaned weakly against the elevator wall, panting heavily.

horrible.

Jiang Ning's eyes were terrifying.

Outside the elevator, seeing Jiang Ning turn around, Xiliya asked curiously, "Shengbao, what are you looking at?"

“I didn’t see anything,” Jiang Ning continued, “I just felt that Jennifer was acting a little strange today.”

"Strange, what's strange about it?" Cyria glanced back at the elevator doors and then said, "Isn't Jennifer like this every day?"

She didn't notice anything strange about Jennifer.

Jiang Ning continued, "I think she seems a little guilty."

It's like they've done something wrong.

"Feeling guilty?" Celia didn't take it to heart, and took Jiang Ning's arm. "Shengbao, you must have seen wrong. Come on, let's go inside and chat! I love hearing you talk about the White-haired Wind!"

White-haired Wind, a monster that appears in blizzards.

Jiang Ning only mentioned it to Xilia, but Xilia immediately became very interested in this monster that only existed in legends.

On the other side.

After Jennifer got off the elevator, she immediately took a taxi to the place she had arranged to meet Greta.

Greta has arrived.

Seeing Jennifer approach, she excitedly went to greet her, "Miss Jennifer, have you received the prescription yet?"

“Yes.” Jennifer nodded.

"Give it to me quickly," Gretel said impatiently.

Jennifer took the prescription out of her pocket.

Gretel immediately took it, opened the prescription, and looked at it himself.

If Celia hadn't truly recovered, Gretel would never have believed that a few unassuming doses of traditional Chinese medicine could cure epilepsy!

Very good!

That's wonderful!

She finally got the prescription to cure her epilepsy!

Soon her name will be forever etched in the medical field.

Greta had been studying medicine for over a decade, waiting for this day.

Jennifer looked at Gretel and continued, "Don't forget your promise: once the miracle drug is on the market, my name must be listed as the inventor!"

She took such a huge risk just to gain both fame and fortune and shed the label of bodyguard.

Gret smiled and said, "Miss Jennifer, don't worry, we will definitely keep our promise."

When Jennifer returned, it was already past ten o'clock.

Jiang Ning has already gone home.

Inside the room, Celia was sitting in front of the vanity mirror taking out her jewelry.

After removing all her jewelry, Celia put away a pair of emerald earrings, intending to place them separately in a safe.

These earrings are especially precious, having been around for over two hundred years. They are one of Cyria's most treasured pieces of jewelry, so she habitually puts them in a safe after each pair.

After putting the earrings in, Celia habitually checked the contents of the safe.

"Ah!" The next second, a scream pierced the sky.

As Cyria's bodyguard, Jennifer rushed in from the next room immediately. "Miss Ryan, what happened?"

"The prescription, my prescription is gone!" Siriya said, her face pale.

Jennifer pretended to know nothing and asked in surprise, "How could this happen? Please check quickly, is there anything else missing!"

Cyril immediately rummaged through the safe. "It's gone! The prescription is missing! It seems that person came for the prescription!"

Jennifer's eyes widened. "Who could it be! Miss Ryan, don't panic. Think carefully about when the prescription went missing. Did you see the prescription yesterday?"

“I checked it last night before I went to bed, and the prescription is still there!” Every night before going to sleep, Xilia has a habit of checking the things locked in the safe first.

“That’s what was lost today. I’ll go and notify the hotel right away to check everyone who entered your room today.”

“Okay,” Cyria nodded, “Go quickly!”

After Jennifer left, Celia immediately called Jiang Ning to inform her that the prescription had been lost.

“Shengbao, I suspect it was Smith who sent someone to do it, because he asked me for your prescription before, but I didn’t agree! But I didn’t expect him to be so bold as to reach into my hands!”

Jiang Ning's voice came from the other end of the phone, "The mastermind behind this may be Smith, but I think there is someone close to you who is involved."

"Who?" Cyria asked immediately.

“Jennifer.”
