Chapter 706 No Sign Of Life
“Right, Jefford?” Yara shot Jefford a glance.
“Yes, Ms. Yara,” the latter piped up, nodding at her faithfully.
“How could you…” Kenneth was speechless with sheer disbelief in his eyes. It never came across his mind that Yara would have bribed his butler.
She caught a glimpse of Kenneth’s bowl of medicine that seemed untouched and instructed Jefford, “Jefford, Grandpa hasn’t taken his medicine today, has he? Anyway, he mustn’t skip his medications. Why don’t you let him take it now? It might be less effective if he doesn’t take it on time.”
“Noted, Ms. Yara.” Jefford took the bowl of medicine and advanced toward Kenneth.
“Jefford, what on earth are you doing? What’s the matter with you?” Kenneth snapped in bafflement.
“Old Mr. Bowers, I’m sorry!” Jefford grabbed hold of Kenneth, forcing him to gulp down the medicine.
Kenneth struggled frantically, causing the medicine to spill. Nonetheless, quite a lot of it still flowed into his mouth. Subsequently, he almost choked on it and could not resist coughing.
Pointing at Yara, Kenneth rebuked, “Yara, how could you do this to me? What’s your intention? If anything happens to me, Samuel will only loathe you even more! Initially, I thought of giving you a chance, so you’ll turn over a new leaf. But it seems I have been too naive!”
“Hahaha!” Yara could not help but guffaw as though she had just heard about something ridiculous.
“Grandpa, talking about being naive, you still believe that I was the one saving your life at that time, don’t you?” Yara crossed her arms, gazing at Kenneth haughtily. “Natalie Nichols was actually your savior six years ago. After all, I don’t have any medical knowledge and have been making a fool out of you all this while. If I continue to keep mum about it, you won’t sense anything awry too. Am I right?”
Kenneth’s pupils constricted as he stared unbelievably at Yara, dumbstruck. “What did you say? You’re not the one who saved me six years ago?”
