Rahman was delighted. “Really?”
Mable put down her cutleries, looking upset. “Rahman, am I trashy?”
Rahman forced a laugh and casually replied to her, “You finally realized? I’ve been used to your trashy personality for many years.”
“Get lost!” Mable rolled her eyes at him.
Rahman knew what she was struggling with. “Mabes, everything in this world can be solved by money. Don’t feel like you owe Blair anything. At most, I’ll give him two private oil fields and take it as I bought the Ice Jade Flower from him.”
Mable pondered for a while. Blair probably needed oil fields at the moment, so she nodded and said, “Okay, but I’ll pay for them.”
Rahman ruffled his golden bangs and smiled evilly. “Why are you being so polite? I wouldn’t have gotten the two oil fields in the first place if it wasn’t for you.”
Mable wanted to say something else but Rahman cut her off. “Stop talking nonsense. Where’s the Ice Jade Flower? Hurry up and decoct it.”
The sooner she consumed it, the sooner the Necro Poison could be surprised. Then, she would have an easier time.
“It needs to be paired with some other herbs.”
Mable wrote a Chinese medicine prescription on a piece of paper and called for Hugh. “Go to a Chinese medicine store and get these herbs according to the prescription. A few of them are rare, so you might have to go to a few stores.”
“Got it. I’ll go right now.”
Hugh went to all the Chinese medicine stores in Ashdale before finding all the herbs Mable needed.
At night, Mable began to decoct the medicine.
While she was doing that in the kitchen, Rahman sneaked out into the garden and called Blair.
The call went through. Before Blair could say anything, Rahman said, “Mr. Fowler, I’ll send someone to liaise with you for the oil fields another day.”
“No need.”
Blair responded coldly.
Rahman was stunned. “What do you mean?”
‘Is he trying to go back on his word?
‘Hmph, so be it. Mabes is already decocting the medicine anyway.’
While he was thinking, Blair continued, “I didn’t give Mable the Ice Jade Flower for the oil fields.”
Rahman raised his eyebrow. ‘He’s not still trying to pursue Mabes, is he?’
Blair added, “I want her to be safe and sound.”
Rahman was speechless.
‘It’s true.
‘He’s still clinging to Mabes!’
