Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 751

"If Nathan finds out about your lab, we're both in deep shit," Eve hissed at Ouyang. She had not expected this reckless obstinacy from him. To think that he just refused her offer!

This bullheadedness was causing her trouble. Her face was set in tight, angry lines as she met his eyes.

"I'll transfer all the equipment in the lab somewhere else. Don't worry. There's no way it would be found out by anyone, unless… someone saw you the last time you injected the poison into Arian's body." Ouyang drew out the words carefully as he watched Eve's expression.

Eve's frown deepened at his insinuation. "What?" she answered sharply. "That's nonsense. It's absolutely impossible. Besides, you should be worrying about other things. If this gets exposed, you'll also be in deep trouble. It's not too late to leave now."

Ouyang's lips broke into a wicked smile at her words. "We both know that it's not me you're worried about. You're just trying to save your own ass," he said.

With her true intentions found out, Eve's face burned in embarrassment. Damn him. He was sharp.

Ouyang chuckled darkly as color flooded her cheeks. "You're afraid that I will be a burden to you, isn't that right? After begging me for so long in the past, now that you've gotten what you wanted, you're kicking me away?"

Eve had no words to counter his accusation. He hit the bulls' eye and threw the truth to her face without holding back.

"This has been a business relationship from the beginning. I paid you to help me. Nothing more, nothing less," Eve said coldly.

"If that's the way it is, then have it your way," Ouyang replied, putting back his earphones. There was nothing left to discuss, and he was not wasting a single second on Eve.

"What do you mean?" Eve spat angrily. She grabbed at Ouyang's arm tightly, demanding her answers.

Ouyang looked at her with cold eyes and stepped forward. "It's as you said, Miss Su. This is just business. You can do whatever you want, and the same goes for me. I don't want to leave. If you try to force me, then I won't go easy on you either. Call it a conflict of interest. Nothing personal."

He shook her hand off his arm as if the contact repulsed him. Ouyang had known Eve for such a long time, and he could read her like the back of his own hand. She was too ruthless to even have a conscience. She would not think twice about discarding him if it was no longer beneficial to her. From the anger on her face, Ouyang knew that she understood the concealed threat behind his words.

Eve blanched at the cold intensity of his eyes. There was no compromise. "All right. What do you want to do?" Eve asked.

"I have made it clear to you just now. I just want to stay here. This my only condition."
