Chapter 29


    Judy nodded at rk''s question, causing him to frown.


    The room resembled a shabby study rather than a proper bedroom for ady. A wall of bookshelves


    filled with books, an old desk, and a folding single bed in the corner made up the entire room.


    Considering the ke family''s wealth, who would have thought that Matthew would let Judy live in


    such a ce?


    However, Matthew could allow Judy to marry into the Reid family. This already indicated that this


    mute illegitimate daughter of his truly held no ce in his heart. Judy was just a tool to him.


    Judy looked at rk anxiously, unsure of how he would react.


    But rk merely stood in front of a shelf, casually pulling out a book. He asked nonchntly, "What


    did Matthew say to you when we were downstairs?"


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    Judy''s heart sank, and she shook her head hesitantly.


    "Nothing?" rk raised his head, his eyes extremely cold. "Then, what are you holding?"


    The moment these words fell, Judy''s mind buzzed, and she involuntarily took a step back. The


    package clutched in her palm was almost soaked with sweat.


    He''d seen it.


    rk didn''t approach her, but the way he stood still made him even more terrifying. Those


    unperturbed eyes were like an abyss, a deathly gaze to doom anyone.


    After remaining locked in a stalemate., Judy finally stretched out her hand. Her shoulders trembled


    slightly as she slowly opened her palm to show him.


    This was her instinct to survive.


    With a creak, the door suddenly opened.


    Jenna opened the door and entered, her face stered with a sweet smile. "rk, I brought you


    some fruit."


    A trace of impatience shed across rk''s face. "Thank you," he calmly responded.


    "You''re wee. Make yourself at home," Jenna said, carrying the tray in.


    She shot Judy a cold nce as she passed her. "Judy, why don''t you help out in the kitchen? The


    helpers don''t know rk''s dietary preferences."


    Judy nodded, her foot imperceptibly nudging the small white package that had dropped earlier


    under the bed.


    "I''ll go get busy then while you guys chat."


    The moment the door closed, Judy was able to breathe again. Her back was already soaked with


    cold sweat. She absolutely could not feed rk the drug.


    Through the door, she could hear rk and Jenna talking inside.


    "Do you like the ne?"


    "I do. As long as it''s from you, rk."


    A moment of silence followed.


    "I remember you studied pharmacology abroad, right?"


    "Yes, my family is in that business."


    "The ke Medical Group has the medicine form. Why do you need to go abroad for further


    studies?"


    "Yeah, I don''t know what Dad is thinking. We have the medicine form patented. It''s more than


    enough to continue the legacy. Why bother learning from others?"


    "Oh? Well then, Jenna, I assume you''ve seen the medicine form."


    Jenna couldn''t find her voice.


    rk suddenly apanied her back to the ke mansion. Now, she seemed to understand why


    he approached Jenna.


    The ke family had a century-long history in medicine. The most valuable asset of the ke


    Medical Group was not the family name, nor Matthew''s business acumen. Instead, it was that


    unknown medicine form.


    rk came for this.
