Chapter 685
Warner subconsciously wanted to follow, but after hesitating, he listened to Melody and took the elevator down to call for help. But as soon as the elevator door closed, he regretted it.
If anything happened, it should be him, a man, taking the risk and going up, not Melody, a helpless girl, taking the lead while he went down to get reinforcements. ‘It should be the other way around!’ But there was no point in regretting it. The elevator was already descending. He could only hope that Melody had a false alarm.
At the same time, Melody quietly approached the ICU where Sid was. When she passed by an empty room, she saw a bunch of bodyguards lying inside. The clothes on those bodyguards were all printed with the logo of the Quant Group. They were Sebastian’s men. Sure enough, something had happened.
Melody could not care less about those people. She walked hastily towards the ICU. As expected, a voice came from the ICU, “I think you already know Ken already has someone in his heart. That person is Melody. He won’t change his mind easily.”
Melody suddenly stopped in her tracks. It was Sid’s voice. ‘Who is he talking to? And what is he talking about? Ken likes me? How is that possible?’
*****
Ten minutes earlier, Janet arrived with her bodyguards. Because of her identity, The Quant family’s bodyguards were not on guard against her. So, in less than five minutes, she had poisoned everyone on that floor. The assistant beside her took a few steps forward and reported, “Miss, they’re all down and dragged into the empty room. You have to hurry up, or Sebastian will flee.”
“I know.” Janet responded coldly and led her men into the ICU. No one knew how scared she was when she heard that Sid had woken up. Fortunately, Sebastian suddenly had a guest visit, so she could make her move. It was all thanks to Sebastian’s guest.
In the ICU. Sid had just woken up. Although he had removed his breathing mask, he still had not fully regained his senses. He would not be able to stand up without someone supporting him. He could only do the simplest actions, such as raising his hand or leg. Hearing the commotion outside, Sid thought his father had brought Nickolas.
However, before he could turn his head to the door, he heard Janet’s voice coming from the door. “Sid, I heard you were awake, so I came to see you.”
Sid’s body instantly stiffened. ‘Janet?’ He ignored the pain in his body and looked at the door alerted. As expected, he saw Janet’s shadow. She was the one who stabbed him.
Nickolas suddenly came to visit. Before Sid could tell his father who the murderer was, his father had already left. At that time, Sid thought that since he was awake, he could talk to Sebastian later. So, he did not stop his dad from leaving. Unexpectedly, before his father returned, the person who waited for him was Satan’s spawn, Janet.
“Damn it!” Sid asked anxiously, “What are you trying to do? This is a hospital!”
Janet appeared from behind the door and smiled.
As she approached Sid, she played with the dagger she brought and said, “Sid, why are you looking so scared? Aren’t we friends who fought side by side? Look at your face. You’re so scared. You’re already in a bad state, and your face looks even worse.”
As Janet spoke, she touched Sid’s chin. The stubble on it stung her hand. However, it was as if she did not feel any pain. She continued to touch as if she was doting on her severely injured good friend.
“Don’t touch me!” Sid looked away in disgust.
Janet looked disappointed and sighed. “You don’t have to resist me so much. I’m just trying to get what I want in life. What’s wrong with that?”
“Heh!” Sid laughed coldly. “I’ve never seen anyone more shameless than you. If you have the guts, say those words to Ken. He’s not dumb. Do you think he won’t suspect you?”
“So what if he suspects me? Does he have proof? Once you’re dead, he’ll gradually forget about you over time. And eventually, I’ll be the only woman standing by his side.”
Sid looked at her in disgust as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
“I think you already know Ken already has someone in his heart. That person is Melody. He won’t change his mind easily.”
Janet was neither angry nor annoyed. To a dead person, there was nothing to be angry about.
“Melody will end up like you. Do you think Ken can love a dead person for the rest of his life? I’d like to know the answer. Sid, you’re hard to kill like a cockroach. So, unfortunately, I have to kill you again. I’m sorry for being too gentle last time. You have to suffer again.” Janet sighed and added, “Do you have anything to say before you die? I promise I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Get lost. If you want to kill me, hurry up! Your existence disgusts me.”
Janet raised her eyebrows and tightened the grip on her dagger. “Since you’re so eager to die, I’ll fulfill your wish.” Her gaze turned sharp. She picked up the dagger and pointed it at Sid’s heart.
However, a phone suddenly flew over from the door. It sent the dagger in Janet’s hand flying. With a crisp bang, the dagger fell to the floor.
“What the f*ck?” Janet instantly became alert. Sid also looked at the door in shock. A slender woman with a powerful presence appeared before him against the corridor’s light.
After seeing that person’s face clearly, Sid’s eyes instantly lit up. ‘Melody!’
Janet’s face quickly turned stiff. “Well, if it isn’t the cheap sl*t!”
Back then, it was Melody who saved Sid. She was in the same ambulance as Sid, so he knew that if not for Melody’s video call, Sid would have died in the ambulance, let alone survived until that point.
Melody’s cold face didn’t change as she entered the ICU. After reassuring Sid, she looked at Janet lightly. “Janet, Sid has been your friend for many years. How could you bear to hurt him a second time?”
Janet narrowed her eyes coldly and did not refute Melody. She raised her chin and said, “Coincidentally, you and Sid are both here. That’s great! I can kill two birds with one stone. You can gossip on your way to hell so you won’t be lonely.”
Melody smirked mockingly. “That depends on whether you have the skill.”
“F*ck you. Let’s see how long you can keep that arrogant face!” Janet ordered her men, “Go, kill her!”
