Chapter 262


    “I… I… I will give it my all…” Although the doctor’s words held a glimmer of hope, deep down, he felt


    an overwhelming sense of despair.


    However, Yennypletely disregarded the doctor’s pitiful appearance.


    After all, earning money from him would prove to be quite challenging.


    Upon leaving the hospital, Yenny had his subordinates reach out to all medical experts in the city of


    Janeborough.


    Over the next two days. Yenny sought out every avable doctor that he could get in contact with.


    However, each and every doctor, whom he consulted, shook their head with a sigh upon seeing his


    hand, indicating the daunting nature of the problem. They had no solution for his condition.


    As time went on, Yenny’s hand condition deteriorated, and soon, he had lost all feeling in his fingertips.


    If more time passed, his entire arm might be devoid of sensation.


    “We have thoroughly investigated the previous hospital, Mr. Pembroke, and there does not appear to


    be any issues with the doctors and nurses. We… we also do not know where things went wrong, the


    assistant expressed with deep regret.


    Usually, their cautious approach should have deterred any wrongdoings. But Yenny’s hand did not


    seem like an idental urrence; it was clearly a deliberate act.


    “I really want to confront him,” Yenny’s gaze bore into his hand.


    Despite his efforts to form a fist, his hand failed to respond ordingly.


    “Who are you referring to, Mr. Pembroke?” The assistant struggled to grasp the full meaning behind


    Yenny’s words.


    However, Yenny remained silent, providing no further exnation for his statement


    “Are you talking about… Simon Hernandez?!” His assistant eximed in astonishment. Amid the


    ensuing silence, the assistant suddenlyprehended the significance of Yenny’s statement.


    “Besides him, who else could possess such capabilities?” Yenny gritted his teeth.


    “What steps should we take now?” The assistant’s expression flickered with uncertainty upon being


    confronted with this question.


    “Simon has be Mr. Pembroke’s ultimate nemesis. If Simon truly drugged him, this would be a


    grave situation,” the assistant pondered.


    “Help me get in touch with Simon and inform him that I wish to meet him personally,” Yenny stated,


    resigning himself after several unsessful attempts to make a fist.


    Upon hearing this, the assistant raised his gaze in surprise toward Yenny. However, he quickly averted


    his eyes and nodded, saying, “Certainly.”


    That same afternoon, Simon received the news of Yenny’s intention to visit him.


    When Gavin delivered the message, Simon was peeling an apple for Marina.


    Upon hearing the news of Yenny’s uing visit, Marina felt a twinge of disappointment.


    Lowering her head, she observed Simon diligently peeling the apple. “You’re right. His vignce is


    commendable. He detected something amiss so swiftly. If a few more days had passed, the toxin


    would have traveled through his arm’s nerves, reaching his brain. After a few additional days, his brain


    would have beenpletely paralyzed. By then, even if he had survived, he would have been reduced


    to a state of idiocy,” Marina expressed, tinged with regret.


    “It’s already quite a feat to aplish this,” Simon remarked, finishing the peeling and cutting the


    apple into small pieces. for Marina before offering it to her.


    “It seems I should develop a colorless and odorless poison that even machines cannot detect, Marina


    mused, savoring the apple.


    Gavin discreetly nced at Marina and wondered, “How can Miss Bailey utter such chilling words with


    such an innocent. expression?”


    “Should we agree, Mr. Hernandez?” Gavin inquired once more.


    Simon did not directly respond to his question, but instead, he looked directly at Marina, seeking her


    opinion.


    After all, the notion of poisoning had originated from Marina, so she held some decision–making


    authority in this matter.


    “Yes, since he willingly arrived at our doorstep, we should certainly meet him.” Marina stated, taking a


    bite of the apple.


    “Alright, I’ll respond right away,” Gavin replied before turning and exiting.


    In the room, only Marina and Simon remained.

    This time, Yenny really made a significant mistake. It would be best if you had a sincere conversation


    with him about the terms and conditions, Simon suggested, his lips parting slightly.


    If one listened closely, a hint of pride and arrogance could still be detected in his tone.


    After all, it should be noted that there were not many people who could make Yenny look so miserable


    and pathetic.


    “It’s definitely worth a substantial deal. After all, he struck a deep blow to my heart,” Marina expressed,


    emphasizing her deeply entrenched grudge.


    “I hold resentments. Whoever harms me, I will undoubtedly repay them a thousand times over.” Marina


    fiercely bit into the apple in her mouth as if envisioning it as Yenny.


    The following morning, Yenny arrived at the Hernandez Group with his assistant.


    Gavin courteously guided them to the reception room, serving them the finest tea.


    However, despite consuming cup after cup of tea, Simon remained nowhere to be found.


    Of course, Yenny knew that Simon was purposely dying.


    Though aware of the situation, the assistant struggled to control his temper.


    He shouted directly at Gavin, “We have been waiting here for so long, and the agreed–upon time has


    already passed by nearly an hour. Has Mr. Hernandez not finished his work yet?!”


    “We cannot do anything about it. Mr. Hernandez is dealing with something truly crucial. If waiting has


    be tiresome, why not return today ande back another time?” Gavin responded with a smile.


    The assistant red at Gavin, sensing his feigned confusion. He yearned to rip off Gavin’s hypocritical


    mask. However, before he could act, Yenny, seated on the couch, intervened to halt him.


    “What nonsense is this? Have you forgotten the principles I taught you?!” Yenny reprimanded firmly.


    Upon hearing Yenny’s admonishing voice, the assistant dared not utter another word despite his anger


    and reluctance,


    “I apologize, Gavin. My assistantcks an understanding of proper etiquette. Allow me to apologize on


    his behalf,” Yenny maintained his customary gentle andposed expression, showing no signs of


    anger from being neglected.


    Mr. Pembroke possesses a superior grasp of etiquette,” Gavin silently admired. “No wonder he holds


    the position of the


    Pembroke family head. His ability to endure what most people can’t have already granted him a


    significant advantage.”


    “You can also inform Mr. Hernandez that I have a lot of time on hand, and he can take all the time he


    needs for his affairs. I’m in no rush.” Yenny calmly conveyed.


    “Alright, I will ry Mr. Pembroke’s message.” Gavin nodded at Yenny before turning and leaving the


    room..
