Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1442

“What happened to Mrs. Landry?“ asked Joshua as he drove Christopher and Jim back home, glancing at Christopher through the rearview mirror.

“Mrs. Landry is a very skilled chemist, and she’s been trying to formulate the most powerful drug in the world for many years, but sometimes, when she needs to test the potency of the drug, she’d ingest it herself.“

Joshua’s hands, which were gripping the steering wheel, stiffened when he heard this.

At the mention of the Landry family’s drug…he could not help recalling Granny Lynch.

He had yet to come to terms with Granny Lynch’s death. This was the vengeance between him and the Landry family.

However, because Jim was also in the backseat with Christopher, Joshua had no choice but to suppress his rage and asked, “So did this happen because she was experimenting on herself again?“

“My father, Larry, was trained under the same teacher as Mrs. Landry, so he’s very familiar with her formulations. Every time she produced a new drug, he’d be able to formulate a corresponding antidote.

“However, my father passed away a few years ago, and ever since then, Mrs. Landry had never tried any of her formulations on herself anymore.“

As he said this, Christopher looked through some information on his phone. “Even though I’ve inherited my father’s talent in drug-making, I’m still young and inexperienced, so I need more time to formulate the corresponding antidote for her.

“Mrs. Landry knew this, so she never dared to try her own drugs on herself anymore. Therefore, I don’t think she did this to herself. On the contrary, I think she was poisoned.“

Jim leaned against the backseat and let out a deep sigh. “Can you try to make the antidote before her condition worsens?“

“I should be able to, but I need a very rare ingredient for this. It’s an herb called the Clinging Root that usually grows at the edge of steep cliffs. However…it can’t be found in Merchant City.“

Jim closed his eyes in frustration. “Then I’ll send my men to search for this root all over the world. I won’t stop until we find it.“

Christopher nodded, then lifted his head to glance at Joshua. He seemed as though he wanted to say something but ultimately decided against it and lowered his head to continue reading instead.

After sending the two of them back to Swan Lake Chalet, Joshua returned to his room.

That night, he had a dream that he was standing on the edge of a cliff searching for the Clinging Root and ended up falling off and dying instantaneously.
