    Chapter 1143


    She quickly entered her room to receive the call in private. “Hello?”


    “How are youtely?”


    A cold, modted voice could be heard from the other end of the call. The voice that was clearly a


    result of a voice changer was still always as cold and ufortable to hear. Still, Beryl had gotten


    used to it by now.


    Every time she received his call, she would feel a rush of excitement. Even though she had not met this


    man behind that voice changer before, he had given her a great sense of security.


    After all, her son had be so submissive and docile to her in thest five years. And it was all


    thanks to him!


    “Thank you, master. Your drug is really effective. My son has not recovered his memories since.”


    “It’s my honor to be able to assist you,” the man said with a grin.


    “When will you be giving me the next dose? I’ve increased his dose so I’m running out soon.”


    “Sure, I can give you the next dose soon. But it depends on what you can do for me.”


    Beryl hung up the phone, satisfied, before transferring a few assets and some funds she had acquired


    from her son over to the


    man


    She had done this numerous times in the past five years and she had gotten used to it. So long as she


    could control Conrad, Beryl did not mind giving up anything under her name to the man. After all, she


    could always earn anything of mary value from her son.


    “Sir, I need to tell you something.”


    After having lunch at Maxwell Corporation’s canteen, Ss brought his boss’s lunch over to the CEO’s


    office and spoke to Conrad warily.


    “Yes?” Conrad responded in a daze. His mind had been absent all morning from thinking about that


    bad-tempered woman.


    “It’s the old Mrs. Maxwell. Your mother, sir.” Ss said as he looked at his boss cautiously, careful to not


    provoke him, “I need to talk about her.”


    “What is it?” Conrad asked coldly, “Are you asking me to doubt her?”


    Then, he pinched his brows and said, “Ss, you’re too paranoid. She and I have been getting along


    fine in the past five years. She’s a good mother.”


    Due to Beryl’s threat, Ss could not spill the beans about the whole truth to Conrad. Still, he had to


    say something. “No matter how great a mother she is, you still need to be wary, sir. You need to be


    wary of everyone, and this includes us and her.”


    “1


    Conrad was getting impatient. Still, thinking about that woman, he did not interrupt Ss this time.


    “Are you always this tired once a month?” Ss asked warily.


    “Yes.” Conrad answered coldly, “What? You want me to go for another checkup?”


    Ss felt so frustrated. His boss had be so cautious and untrusting toward the people around him


    in the past five years. Instead, Beryl became the one he trusted most.


    “I told you I’m fine. Yet, you still want to force me to go for a checkup! Don’t you know I have a lot of


    work to do?!” Conrad finally lost his temper.


    Ss shook his head and said, “No, I’m just worried for your health, sir. It never hurts to be careful.”


    “Careful this, careful that! Ss Whitley! What you are doing right now is suspecting my mother is


    poisoning me! If she


    wanted to, she could have killed me so many times in the past five years!”


    “Sir, but this could just mean that she hasn’t taken enough from you!” Ss raised his voice in


    frustration. “You have given up so much for her in the past five years…”


    “She’s my mother! Is it so wrong to take care of her?!” Conrad tossed a folder at Ss furiously.

    Ss felt so wronged and frustrated. He was doing this for his boss’s own good! Yet, without his


    memories, Conrad would not listen to a word.


    “If it weren’t for you being such an excellent employee and that you haven’t screwed up anything, I


    would have fired you for suspecting my mother like this!”


    Ss lowered his head and said, “Alright, I won’t do this again. But I still hope that you’ll go for a


    checkup after work.”


    “I’m not going to!” Conrad tossed another folder at him.


    Ss stood there and said, “Then I’ll contact Ms. Parker and ask her to bring you to a hospital for a


    checkup.”


    “Are you threatening me again, Ss?! If you go to her, my mother will definitely learn of this!”


    Conrad was pissed that he had thought about killing this nosy assistant of his! How could he keep


    nagging him to go get a checkup every single month?!


    “Please, sir. I’m just worried for you,” Ss said as he kneeled at his boss sincerely.


    Conrad red at Ss impatiently. This again! This Ss would always kneel in front of him whenever


    he refused to listen to him! He would always do this to guilt trip him so he could bring him for a


    checkup!
