Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 574

The couple complied and opened the box. Suddenly, a rich medicinal aroma was filled in the air, just exactly as what Walden had smelled in the day.

"It is really the Longevity Pill." Walden's eyes lit up. "Throw it here."

"First, let go of my son!" Scott's daughter-in-law demanded.

Walden frowned. He reached out and picked up the child, pinching his neck. "Lady, my patience is running out."

The woman suddenly took the pill box from her husband's hand, and moved a few steps back near to the big water tank in the courtyard. Pretending to dump the pills into the water tank, she said, "Let my son go, or I'll dump the pills in it. You do know, the pill is going to melt in the water. There is just this one box existing in the whole world."

Walden stepped forward in a hurry. Seeing her son's pale face caused by the pinch, the woman swayed her wrist. A pill fell from the box into the water. It disappeared even without a trace.

Walden understood that if the lady became too anxious, she wouldn't mind dumping all those pills into the water tank. Then he analyzed the situation and considered the fact that the family was way too outnumbered by his men. Even if he were to let the child go, he could still manage to get the pills into his custody. Suddenly, he pinched the boy into a coma and then threw him onto the ground. "Give the pills to me. Here is your child."

Scott's son picked up the boy in a hurry to check on him. Seeing that his son was safe and sound, he nodded at his wife. The woman heaved a sigh of relief, and pulled her hand away from the water tank.

"Lady, I have already released your son as promised. Now, hand over the box to me." Walden kept his eyes glued on the box in the lady's hand, ready to grab it at any time.

The lady sneered and said, "For a box of pills, you didn't even bother about a kid's life. Even if you take the Longevity Pills, you wouldn't have a good ending."

The woman waved her hand and threw the box out. A guard flew forward and caught it immediately. The couple, as well as the child, and Scott, looked at Walden warily. They thought of a way out, but the security alarm in their mansion was damaged by the assailants. Now, the family was left with no other choice but to wait until Walden got what he wanted, hoping that they would leave the place as soon as possible.

Walden took the box from his attendant and opened it. After confirming that they were indeed the Longevity Pills, he closed the box and walked out.

Seeing that Walden was about to leave, Scott's family breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were alive, they could refine the Longevity Pills again, so losing the pills wasn't a big worry for them.
