The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1994

Elias waved his hand nonchalantly. “Mr. Salvador, please don’t say that. Ms. Sasha instructed me to take care of this. It’s really no big deal. Besides, Horace is part of the Southern Star Syndicate, so as their leader, I should step in to sort out this mess. If you want to repay the favor, you should thank Ms. Sasha instead.”

The group entered Elias’ luxurious office, which was so quiet it felt like a different world from outside.

Peter Lang, Horace’s lawyer, immediately recounted every word Horace had said without missing a single detail.

“Medicine?” Justin and Bella exclaimed in surprise.

Ian’s eyes lit up. “Yes, yes! That person asked me if I wanted to buy some medicine when we were talking. Could that have been a code word?”

Peter said, “What’s strange is that Horace insists he was selling medicine, not drugs. It’s a type of banned medication that isn’t approved by the FDA domestically, but it’s popular overseas. It is said to provide pleasure similar to drugs and cannot be detected in urine tests.”

He continued, “This medication has been gaining quite a bit of popularity lately in Savrow’s underground markets. I’ve heard that members of the Southern Star Syndicate, as well as other syndicates, have been using it.”

Justin’s eyes gleamed with a sharp, cold intensity. “Did the member of the Southern Star Syndicate who suddenly died on the street also use this drug?”

Elias’ expression turned serious. “Yes, he not only used it himself but also sold it privately to other members of Southern Star Syndicate.”

“There’s something wrong with that medicine.” Bella remembered the frightening and unusual death of that man, feeling her heart tighten. “Whether it’s a drug or not, it’s clear that taking this stuff is extremely dangerous and life-threatening.”

“What a pity! I just got my hands on that drug, but then I was caught. I failed the task Mr. Salvador assigned to me...” Ian felt remorseful again, sighing in frustration.

Justin reassured him calmly. “It’s alright. Your safety is more important than anything else.”
