Chapter 385
Chris contacted Toxic Hive again. He thought that they would reject communication after Mariña’s incident. Unexpectedly, they told him to go to the agreed place on time.
He didn’t know what Toxic Hive was thinking. Since they were bold enough to say that, he would be brave enough to meet them as well.
After planning their strategy, Ethan had to go back and get ready. When he left, he noticed that Otto was in a daze. Otto seemed to be very out of it.
After leaving the Carlton residence, Ethan gave an order. “Investigate what Mr. Carlton Senior has been doing and the people he met.”
Brent knew what he meant right away. “Mr. Miller, are you suspecting Mr. Carlton Senior?”
“If no one is hiding the Toxic Hive, we would’ve found traces of them by now. Few people in
Aldenvine can do that. There was something off about Mr. Carlton Senior today.”
Brent frowned, saying, “With a status like that, Mr. Carlton Senior won’t get involved with those scum, will he?”
“Do you know why scammers who sell health products always target old people? Is it because old people are stupid? No, it’s because the older people get, the wiser they become.
“The scammers keep succeeding because old people all have a critical weakness.”
Brent asked, “What is it?”
“They’re afraid of death. The more powerful they are, the more they fear death. The officials of other countries started contacting Toxic Hive for medicine.
“After all, their medicine is far better than the ones available on the market.”
Brent concluded, “So you think that Mr. Carlton Senior shares the same thought.”
“A few years ago, Mr. Carlton Senior’s legs started getting weak. He’s much better now compared to before. So, he might have made a deal with Toxic Hive.
“That’s why he was in disbelief when he learned that Toxic Hive had something to do with
Marina’s accident.”
Ethan scoffed. “He probably thinks of Toxic Hive as his business partner. He even thinks that
the Toxic Hive can only depend on him to survive.
“He didn’t realize how much the Toxic Hive has evolved all these years.”
Brent fell silent for a moment. Then, he sighed. “Mr. Carlton Senior has gotten old, after all.
