"Carver, what did you do to me?"
Kolt, who endured the severe pain in his limbs and was helped up by his bodyguards, roared ferociously.
Carver spread his hands, "I have never been close to you, so don't accuse me wrongly. As for you, it is most likely retribution. You've done so many unjust things."
Kolt didn't believe it at all.
But the severe pain made him unable to investigate the cause, "Send me to the hospital quickly."
Watching Kolt leave in embarrassment, murderous intent flashed in Carver's eyes.
He could kill Kolt directly, but that would be too good for him.
He wants Kolt to despair in pain and torture, and finally agree to the conditions he just proposed.
But even if Kolt agreed, Carver would not let him and the Clement family go. It just gave him a little hope, and then it was dashed in the end, making him even more desperate.
Adela asked, "Carver, does Kolt really have nothing to do with you?"
She was really scared after being oppressed by Kolt.
For fear of encountering Kolt's revenge again, the family would not be able to survive.
In order to prevent their parents from worrying, Carver expression remained unchanged and he promised that it had nothing to do with him. Only then did Adela and Brett feel relaxed.
Cecilia knew that it must be related to Carver, but she was smart enough not to reveal it.
"Carver, these are the medicinal ingredients you asked for. My dad has prepared them for you, right?"
Carver reached out to take the medicinal materials and accidentally touched Cecilia's finger. The latter retracted reflexively and his face turned red.
Are you so sensitive?
Carver secretly thought to himself and smelled it through the packaging bag, and immediately judged that it was the medicinal material he wanted, and the quantity was sufficient, "That's right!"
Cecilia eyes flashed with surprise. She had never seen anyone smell medicinal materials through the packaging bag.
"Miss Yates, sit down. If you have nothing to do today, have lunch here."
Adela had become very familiar with Cecilia over the past five years, so Adela pulled her to sit next to her. He also greeted Carver, "Get Miss Yates a glass of water."
Cecilia hurriedly said, "Carver, please sit down too, I'm not thirsty."
"I won't sit down anymore. I should deal with the medicinal materials first."
In response, Carver walked into the room, which made Cecilia stunned for a while.
As one of the four beauties in Jefpombert City, there are many men who want to find a chance to sit with her. Now Carver entered the room without even looking at her, which made Cecilia, who had always been confident in his charm, feel a little frustrated.
Moreover, she came to see Carver today and had something to say.
But it was embarrassed to follow up in front of Brett and his wife, so she had to sit there and chat with them.
…
At noon, Cecilia stayed at Larsen's house for lunch, and Carver also came out of the room.
As soon as he sat down, Adela greeted him happily, "Carver, Miss Yates just said that you can go to Prosperous Group to work as an assistant for her. You usually drive for her and organize information, and your monthly salary is 15,000 dollars."
Brett said, "You should thank Miss Yates quickly, otherwise with your academic qualifications, you won't be able to work as a clerk in Prosperous Group."
Cecilia looked at Carver expectantly.
In addition to wanting to repay Carver, she also had a shameful reason for making this decision, but she was too embarrassed to tell Brett and his wife.
Carver refused without hesitation, "Mom and Dad, don't worry about me. I plan to run a small clinic in a while. Miss Yates don't feel any pressure. I don't have any intention of saving you and you've done enough in the past few years, and you're all settled!”
"Carver, that's not what I meant, I just wanted to…"
In the middle of her words, Cecilia stopped with her face flushed. She was embarrassed to say the other reason.
Adela slapped Carver, "Carver, why don't you know what's good and what's bad? You didn't agree when Cornely said I would introduce you to a girlfriend, and now Miss Yates doesn't agree when she arranges a job for you. Are you trying to piss me and your dad off?"
The couple has been looking forward to their children's success all their lives.
Especially Carver, after what happened five years ago, they hoped that he would live a better life, start a family, and have a career.
Now Carver is not actively looking for a wife, nor is he actively looking for a job.
Carver smiled bitterly, "Mom, I have saved some money over the years to treat patients. I really plan to run a small clinic and don't want to find another job. As for my girlfriend, I am only twenty-three now, so don't worry!"
"You're not in a hurry, your father and I are."
Brett also advised, "I won't talk about it you if you have any ideas about work. But your girlfriend still has to worry. After all, young people now have to fall in love before they can get married. Now if you find someone to date for two years, you're almost old."
He knows his parents won't give up if he doesn't express my opinion.
Carver said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about work. As for finding a girlfriend, let Cornely arrange it, but you can't blame me if she doesn't like me."
Adela smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you agree to meet."
Cecilia smiled helplessly, "Carver, are you really not going to work for me as an assistant at Prosperous Group?"
"Miss. Yates, I appreciate your kindness. I still want to run a small clinic."
Feeling helpless, Cecilia couldn't say anything else, "Okay. But you have to agree to one thing. My parents want to treat you to dinner tomorrow night to express their gratitude."
Having already refused once, Carver couldn't refuse a second time. What's more, his parents rejected Cecilia many times, "Then I'll go there tomorrow night."
…
After the meal, Cecilia sat for a while and prepared to go back to the company. Adela asked Carver to see him off.
Arriving at the car, Cecilia asked Carver, "what did you do to Kolt?"
In Kolt's case, Carver used hidden silver needles to stimulate acupuncture points on his limbs, causing them to become distorted and painful for ten minutes every hour,24hours a day. And no matter how sophisticated the medical equipment is, it cannot detect the cause.
However, Carver had no intention of admitting it, "This is his retribution!"
"Do you think I believe it?"
Cecilia put her hands behind her back, tilted her head and blinked playfully.
Coupled with her charming face, this playful and cute look made Carver stunned for a moment and forgot to react.
How could she be so changeable?
Gentle and ethereal, there is no lack of fierceness and strength, and behind the fierceness, there is also a playful and cute side.
Cecilia seemed to realize that she was being a little intimate like this, and her blush returned to normal, "If you don't want to say it, just forget it. I'll go back to the company first, and I'll wait for you to be my guest tomorrow."
Carver came to his senses and expressed his gratitude.
After opening the car door and getting in, Cecilia called out to Carver who had already turned around, "Are you really going on a blind date tomorrow?"
Carver had a headache when he mentioned this matter, "My parents no longer care about my work. It would be bad if I still don't listen to them."
"Then you shouldn't have sex with that girl, right?"
"What?"
Cecilia face turned even redder, and she started the car in messy, "Nothing, I'm leaving. If Kolt is looking for trouble, just call me."
Looking at the car leaving, Carver wondered, "Why she was talking so inexplicably?"
"But...it's quite cute!"
