Chapter 644
Noah placed the hanger on the bedside table, silently turned around, and returned to the vanity table to continue preparing the medication.
Howard approached Noah and whispered, “Noah, do you really want to drug him? The three of us ganging up on a sick guy isn’t going to look good if it gets out. Shouldn’t we reconsider?”
Noah remained silent, focused on the meticulous steps of preparing the medicine.
Unable to sway Noah, Howard turned to persuade Corey instead.
“Corey, you know better than anyone how twisted Noah’s ideas can be. Think about Nana; she holds grudges, and if she comes back to find out we’ve been tormenting Elliot in various ways, she won’t be pleased!”
Corey scoffed and said, “Just keep it from Nana.”
“But Elliot can talk. What if he complains? Nana will find out.”
Noah chimed in, “I’ll make him mute.”
Corey agreed, “Good. We can explain to Nana that he can’t speak due to a virus, problem solved.”
“But…” Howard sighed, sympathetically glancing at Elliot, “But he has hands. He can write to tell
Nana!”
Noah replied indifferently, “Then I’ll paralyze him.”
Corey nodded in approval. “Taking care of a paralyzed person can get annoying over time. Nana will completely detest him, and it’s a perfect opportunity for a new brother–in–law!”
Howard was utterly defeated and glanced at Elliot, silently wishing him good luck.
Elliot was still seemingly dazed and unresponsive, weakened by illness.
Suppressing his cough, he peeled off the fever patch from his forehead, enveloping himself tightly in the blankets.
After a brief pause, he weakly uttered, “I want to sleep for a while. You guys can leave.”
Noah had just prepared tiny medicine pills, placing them into a capsule using tweezers. Then, he
handed them to Howard.
Observing the capsule in his palm and then glancing at Noah’s expression, Howard hesitated.
“Noah?”
“Watch him take it. Administer the medicine from yesterday after half an hour.”
Noah spoke coldly and turned away, leaving the master bedroom indifferently.
Howard immediately understood and reluctantly sighed. He fetched a glass of water for Elliot and

approached the bedside.
“Take the medicine first. After you finish, sleep. I’ll wake you in half an hour.”
Elliot frowned, instinctively covering his mouth with the blanket, decisively refusing, “I won’t take it.
Corey, sitting nearby, watched with contemptuous laughter.
He was just acting tough a moment ago, and now he was afraid to take medicine?
As Corey prepared to mock Elliot again, officials from the National Investigation Bureau arrived. They were waiting at the entrance of E&S Haven, stating they needed to report on the mission’s progress to Elliot.

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
