Hypnotizing Love novel Chapter 370

"You said the attacker was a woman?" Jared squinted.

Elias Lansdale nodded, "Yes. Though she covered herself with oversize clothes to hide her figure, from the gesture of how she moved and the wrist of her which occasionally exposed, we could know that it was a woman."

" Makenna Gardner?" Ben guessed, "She is the only enemy of Ms. Reed."

Jared shook his head, "It's not her. She was under the 24-hour surveillance of the police in the hospital. She couldn't leave there."

"You're right. She's definitely not Makenna," Elias pushed his glasses up his nose, "I've checked the cut on Amber's wrist. It showed that it was the first time for the woman to do that. She was overwhelmed by fear and stress when she did that. I can tell it from the messy look of the cut. So, she's definitely not Makenna. I've seen Makenna snapped a cat's neck in a second. If it was Makenna, Amber would have lost her hand then."

Ben took a deep breath and said, "What a psychopath."

Elias bit his lips, "Hey, I like the word 'psychopath'."

Ben twitched his lips. He could not understand why there would be someone liking the dangerous word.

But Ben still got a question to ask, "Maybe Makenna hired someone else to do that?"

"No, she cannot. Firstly, Makenna could not get connected with anyone outside her ward. Secondly, why would she hire someone to hurt Amber's wrist? Why didn't she simply have her killed?"

Indeed, Makenna hated Ms. Reed so much so that she tried several times to murder her.

If it were her men, Ms. Reed would have been dead.

"Ben," Jared called him while he was indulged in his own thoughts.

Ben stared at the rear-view mirror, "What can I do for you, Mr. Farrell?"

"Investigate on Chloe Mendez." Jared squinted.

Ben patted his forehead and said, "I almost forget her. She is also an enemy of Ms. Reed, whom has sent her to the detention center twice. She must be holding strong grudges toward Ms. Reed. I will send someone to investigate her soon, Mr. Farrell."

Jared nodded slightly.

Elias suddenly opened his mouth with his hands supporting his forehead, "Can you give the attacker to me after you have found her?"

"Give her to you?" Jared gazed at him, "What do you want to do?"

A sense of coldness flashed in Elias' eyes. The smile on his face grew more and more terrifying, "It's nothing. I've invented a new kind of medicine. But no volunteers are available for a trial test. You could send the attacker to me and I can do my test on him."

Ben quivered with fear, "Dr. Lansdale, is that medicine a kind of fatal poison?"

"Of course not. It is a cure for a certain disease. But it is bound to have some side effects. So, I haven't found anyone to do a trial test. Now I can have a volunteer," Elias said smilingly.

His smile made his words all the more terrifying.

Jared gave a meaningful look at him, "You would do that for revenge for Amber?"

Elias raised his eyebrows and didn't deny.

Jared bit his lips, "I've been wanting to ask you that question for a long time. Why are you so kind to Amber recently? You love her?"

He gazed at Elias as though he could figure out the shape of his soul.

Yet Elias smiled gently, "You're wrong. I don't love her. Just like my senior fellow apprentice, I have not feelings and emotions. We cannot have any friends, families or eve lovers. I am bound to be an apathetic bachelor. I'm simply curious about Amber and also, I've owed her much."

Hearing his words, Jared let out an unnoticeable sigh of relief.

There were too many wooers of Amber.

He didn't want another love rival.

But the word "curious" confused him.

And he also asked Elias why he would use the word "curiosity".

Elias took off his glasses and wiped it with a piece of cloth, "That's confidential regarding to my research so I'm afraid I could not let you know."
