“Mr. Yonce, what's wrong with my son? What on earth is going on?” Jermaine questioned Boris loudly.
“Mr. Cadden, please remain calm. I'll check on him now to find out what's happening!” Boris tried to appease him.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands and smacked Josiah on the back. With every slap, clouds of black mist were expelled out of his mouth.
“Ah!” Josiah never stopped letting out blood-curdling yowls.
At that moment, he resembled a ferocious beast with his blood-red eyes. The way he stared at Boris fixedly felt as though he intended to stab him to death with his horrifying gaze.
His menacing glower made the latter’s hair stand on end.
Boris could not fathom how such a horrendous twist occurred. However, he could only leave no stones unturned to expel the toxin from Josiah's body for the time being. His forehead beaded with cold sweat from concentration and fear.
In the living room, Theodore pricked up his ears when he seemed to overhear strange noises from Josiah's bedroom. “Mr. Chance, what is going on inside the room?” he asked warily, paling a little.
“It's fine! Just sit back and relax!” Jared continued to savor his cup of tea, laid-back as ever.
“Mr. Chance, we mustn't let anything happen to Mr. Cadden! If not, we'll be in big trouble!” Theodore said anxiously when he saw Jared was not the least bit concerned.
As the general of the Department of Justice in Jadeborough, he bore the responsibility to ensure the peace of Jadeborough and the security of all the leaders, such as Jermaine. Thus, he had to shield the latter against any threats by hook or by crook.
If anything happened to Jermaine, Theodore would be held accountable for it as he was at the scene. It might be considered a capital offense!
“Don't worry. Nothing will happen to Mr. Cadden. I'm sure they'll step out of the room within three minutes!” Jared commented after catching a glimpse of his watch.
Since he seemed highly confident, Theodore could not find it in himself to say anything else. Hence, he could only look in the direction of Josiah's bedroom, anxiousness coloring his features.
