Chapter 178 Panic and Plots
Finished
Sierra stifled her disgust and did not throw away the whip in her hand, managing a forced smile as she suddenly asked, “Do you have any of these drugs that make people more compliant?”
Kasin raised an eyebrow, “Why? Is Mr. Yeager not cooperating?”
“You don’t need to worry about that!”
After thinking for a moment, Kason replied, “I don’t have any here, but I’ll ask around”
Sierra lowered her eyelids, hiding the disappointment in her eyes. Kason was still on guard, even now, not falling into any traps. After that, they stopped talking and walked out together.
Parked at a safe distance, Mateo couldn’t help but look at Jonathan with a gossip–filled gaze. “That whip looks pretty intense; she’s not really going to use it on you, is she?”
Jonathan didn’t respond, just twirled what looked like a ring on his finger. After a long pause, he finally said, “Remind me not jo forget to gouge out his eyes?
Just thinking about Kason looking at Sierra that way made him wish he could gouge Kason’s eyes out right then.
Mateo was left speechless; he dared not speak further. Those close to Jonathan knew he had a fierce temper, and Mateo, having known him for so long, had never seen him this angry before.
Maten silently prayed for Kason.
As they left, Sierra’s eyes were still covered. At that moment, she was glad her face was hidden; it allowed her to conceal her true feelings
Once outside, Kason’s words became less explicit, “Think about what I said today. You can discuss any hesitations with me.”
“Uh–huh!”
Sierra responded, acknowledging him.
Just then, her phone rang. She touched the phone and brought it to her ear; Jonathan’s voice came through, instantly calming her racing heart.
“Why couldn’t I reach your phone? I’ve been trying to call you.”
The signal’s bad overbere, Sierra replied.
“I just finished up here. Want me to pick you up at the hospital?”
The car was quiet, so Kason beard Sierra’s conversation with Jonathan very clearly. Although he couldn’t see Sierra’s face, hearing her speak in such a soft tone with Jonathan made him uneasy again.
Sierra didn’t respond but pushed the door open and stepped out. Then, Kason saw her walk toward another car. Jonathan got out, seeming to say something to Sierra
