Chapter 407 Get Rid of Him


    Joseph only received Cyrus and Mnie this time.N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Leo was also present, apanying them for the meal.


    In the York family, such a simple dinner only served to highlight the guests’ nobility.


    After the meal, Mnie took the opportunity to ask Leo, “How’s your injury?”


    “Just a minor injury. All healed now,” Leo smiled. “The medications the doctor prescribed for me were very


    effective. In less than three days, the wound has already healed.”


    As he said thest sentence, Leo looked at Mnie meaningfully. There was a change in his tone, as if


    implying something.


    Mnie blinked. Leo was perceptive, probably noticing that she had taken medicine from his room without


    permission. Yet, since he didn’t make it explicit, it indicated that he tacitly agreed to keep it a secret.


    Mnie smiled and nodded. “That''s good, or | would feel even more guilty.”


    The two chatted for a while, and Leo left to answer a phone call.


    Cyrus''s assistant approached Mnie and said, “Today is the first time I''ve apanied Elder Gibson to


    have a meal at the York family. | noticed that he treats Joseph with both respect and fear. What’s going on?”


    “Joseph is almost a hundred years old, and both in terms of age and experience, he is Elder Gibson’s senior.


    Isn''t it normal?” Mnie exined.


    Cyrus''s assistant shook his head. “You don’t understand. In the fragrance industry, there are a few elders who belong to the


    same generation as Elder Gibson, but he has always been unrestrained in front of them...”


    Mnie thought for a moment before saying, “Well, it''s not difficult to exin. Didn’t you say that Elder Gibson likes Yelena?


    Yelena is Joseph''s eldest daughter. Back then, Joseph almost became Elder Gibson’s father—in-w. Naturally, one would treat


    his father—inw with both respect and fear.”


    Cyrus''s assistant had a realization. “That makes sense.”


    “Speaking of Yelena, she could be considered the most skilled in fragrance blending among several generations of the York


    family. It was said that she and Elder Gibson met in apetition, and they got to know each other better after that.


    Unfortunately, she passed away at a young age...” Cyrus‘ assistant couldn’t


    help but sigh as he brought up the topic.


    Mnie took the opportunity to ask, “How about Harlow and Leo’s father?”


    “I''ve heard from Elder Gibson that their father had a good rtionship with Yelena. He was the healthiest among the siblings,


    although not good at fragrance blending. Still, his family had high expectations for him. Yelena also cared a lot for her younger


    brother. However, for some reason, when he reached middle age, he suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away quickly.”


    Mnie nodded, listening while also paying attention to the surroundings.


    +15 BONOS


    Joseph and Cyrus were having a conversation in the study with the door tightly closed, and others were busy with their own


    affairs. No one paid attention to her. She made an excuse to go to the bathroom and then slipped out of the main building,


    heading straight to Harlow’s courtyard.


    The trash outside the small house in the backyard was gone, and the foul smell had disappeared.


    She walked to the door and knocked lightly. Soon, she heard running footsteps inside, and the boy opened the


    door for her.


    “Prettydy!” The boy recognized Mnie at a nce, and he grinned joyfully.


    Mnie entered, closed the door, and then observed the boy from head to toe. “Does your wound still hurt?”


    “No.” The boy shook his head.


    The wounds on his legs and arms had healed, and he looked much more spirited. While answering her questions, he also


    jumped around the room, proving that children didn’t hide illnesses.


    “Are you the only one here?” Mnie didn’t see the woman who took care of the boy.


    The boy nodded. “She went to get me some food.”


    “Now that you''re not in pain, | can rest assured.” Mnie crouched down, stroking the boy’s wrist. “I have something to tell you. |


    found the person who poisoned those dogs, so now we can prove that you didn’t


    poison them.”


    “H-He’s a bad person!” The boy suddenly frowned, clenching his fists angrily.


    Mnie paused for a second before nodding. “That''s right, the person who poisoned the dogs is a bad person.”


    The thing that the child cared most about was not being wronged, but standing up for those innocent dogs.


    “I came to tell you the truth this time. Don’t worry, the bad person will receive the punishment he deserves.” Mnie smiled and


    stood up, bidding farewell. “However, | came secretly and can’t stay for long. Until next


    time.”


    The boy suddenly pointed to the window and shouted. “Smoke, smoke!”


    Mnie turned to look, and sure enough, thick smoke was rising outside. Soon, the smoke began to pour in, filling the room with


    a pungent smell, making her and the boy cough.


    “Someone set a fire.”


    She rushed to open the door. However, as expected, the door was locked from the outside.


    She ran to the window, thinking that she could break the ss and escape from the window. When she


    reached the window, she saw several masked people holding wooden boards and hammers, nailing shut the only two windows


    in the room.
