Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 999

"Given by someone important?"

Sophie nodded, "William said it was from Ms. Elodie."

Gordon turned away, his voice flat, "The medicine might be valuable, but if it's from her... I won't take it."

Outside the door, Rick was carrying a bowl of chicken soup. As he pushed the door open, he saw Sophie and Gordon talking.

Seeing Rick about to leave, Sophie said, "I came to visit Mr. Gordon, and now that I have, I'll take my leave."

She glanced at Gordon one more time, "Mr. Gordon, please rest well. I won't disturb you any further."

Gordon stayed silent until Sophie left, then Rick closed the bedroom door.

"Sir, there's nothing wrong with the medicine. William's already checked it out and said it could be replicated exactly."

"No need," Gordon said, tossing the medicine from the table into the trash can. "From now on, don't bother showing me anything from Elodie."

"But sir, Ms. Elodie meant well..."

"What her goodwill means, do I need to explain?"

Rick fell silent.

Gordon's eyes were as emotionless as a frozen lake: "Whether in the past, present, or future, my decisions are final. Even if I'm on my deathbed, no one decides for me."

"Yes, sir."

Rick bowed his head.

It was a choice between life and death.

Accepting the lifesaving medicine meant aligning with Elodie.

Rejecting it left no escape.

Elodie aimed to win his heart, letting him decide his own fate.
