qIn the middle of the night, Gordon reported, “Eva's drink was drugged. That was why she fell into a coma. The two servants responsible had been caught. One of them ran into a truck when escaping. She's currently in a coma due to her severe injury. The other took a pill and stopped breathing. Both of them were willing to die in order to protect the mastermind. Also, the test results of the poison in the syringe came back. It's a type of poison that can control a person's mind. They probably tried to inject it into Ms. Cece but failed. Thankfully, our people reacted fast and immediately rushed in to prevent that. Otherwise, it would be troublesome.”
“No, our people were sent away. They didn't make it in time,” Sean informed as he observed Danrique's expression carefully. “I saw the marks on the carpet. The coffee table was smashed, and there were traces of blood on it. Perhaps there was already a fight in the room before she went in...”
“That's strange.” Gordon furrowed his eyebrows. “There were only Ms. Cece and Eva inside the room. If Eva fainted, who was doing the fighting?”
Sean silently stared at Danrique.
“Ms. Cece didn't faint, but with how weak she was, she shouldn't be...” Gordon was stunned when he said that. “Oh yeah, Ms. Cece also consumed the drugged drink, but she's fine. What is going on here?”
“It would appear Ms. Cece isn't an ordinary person.” Sean sighed meaningfully.
“What do you mean?” Gordon was confused.
“There's a circus show tomorrow night, right?” Danrique abruptly brought it up. “Book a few seats for us.”
“Roger.” Gordon was going to leave to do that, but Danrique stopped him.
“Call Mylo here.”
“Roger.” Gordon promptly brought Mylo into the room. Mylo was pretty excited because at that moment, as he stood in front of Danrique, he felt as though he was more important than any other bodyguards.
He bowed politely upon arriving in the study room. “Mr. Lindberg!”
Danrique asked, “What does one mean by 'stringing someone along?'“
