Chapter 445 Twisting Veronica McCarthy''s Wrist


    ke MacNeil drove back to the city and stopped in front of a pharmacy. He bought some gauze,


    hemostatic powder, and alcohol for disinfecting wounds.


    During the short drive back, his wound soaked through the gauze he used earlier.


    ke MacNeil didn''t want to worry Lilly Crawford by heading home immediately, so he decided to


    change the dressing in the car before heading home.


    At that moment, a voice rang out, "Hello, do you need help?"


    ke MacNeil looked up and saw a woman standing in front of him.


    He replied coldly, "No, thank you."


    The woman, however, refused to give up and said with a concerned expression, "My name is Veronica

    McCarthy, I''m a doctor. Your hand seems to be seriously injured, is it from broken ss?"


    Veronica McCarthy maintained a gentle demeanor, appearing professional.


    ke MacNeil coldly replied, "Can''t you understand humannguage?"


    His face was icy cold, and his slightly curled ck hair hung over his eyebrows, making his eyes even


    more menacing and dangerous.


    Veronica McCarthy''s hands and feet turned instantly cold. She had no doubt that if she dared to say


    another word, the man before her would immediately strike her down.


    Taking a step back, she hurried away.


    ke MacNeil stared at Veronica McCarthy''s receding figure.


    The calctions hidden in his eyes were well concealed. Was she deliberately approaching him?


    Interesting. Besides himself, no one knew his whereabouts. A pharmacy visit was also on his way... If


    this woman approached him, how did she know he was here?


    ke MacNeil picked up alcohol and wiped the wound with it directly.


    Indeed, his wound was caused by ss.


    Just a moment ago, inside the abandoned chemical nt, he punched a piece of ss to fight off a


    demon, and the shattered ss embedded into his flesh.


    However, before leaving the chemical nt, he removed the broken ss.


    Alcohol disinfected better than iodine, but was highly irritating. Most people couldn''t tolerate the pain,


    but ke MacNeil remained expressionless throughout the process.


    As soon as the wound had been disinfected, he sprinkled powder on it and violently wrapped it. His


    movements were far from gentle, as if it wasn''t his own hands.


    Once the bandage was secured, ke MacNeil''s phone received video surveince footage of


    Veronica McCarthy being tracked.


    Veronica McCarthy hadn''t left; instead, she secretly observed him from a coffee shop across the street.


    ke MacNeil hacked into the coffee shop''s surveince system.


    Coincidentally, he overheard Veronica McCarthy seemingly talking on the phone. Her voice lowered:


    "As you instructed, I have indeed found the closest person to Lilly Crawford... but I can''t get close!"


    "I have to target Lilly Crawford now..."


    ke MacNeil''s gaze turned cold, not directed at him but at Lilly Crawford?


    In that case, he couldn''t hold back his strength.


    Half a minuteter, ke MacNeil obtained all of Veronica McCarthy''s information and hacked into her


    phone for surveince.


    However, strangely enough, Veronica McCarthy wasn''t actually making a phone call; she was only


    pretending to do so.


    But she was indeed having a real conversation with someone...


    ke MacNeil squinted his eyes. Was there a ghost? But just moments ago, he hadn''t sensed any


    eerie presence.


    After extensive training, he became ustomed to the aura of ghosts and supernatural entities. Even if


    he couldn''t see them, he wouldn''t miss their presence.


    ke MacNeil decisively got out of the car, crossed the street, and entered the coffee shop.


    He disliked twists and turns. Knowing the other party had a conspiracy, he didn''t let them plot first and


    counter it. That was not how he operated.


    He jumped straight for it.


    ke MacNeil sat down in front of Veronica McCarthy.


    As Veronica McCarthy turned her face to take a sip of coffee, shepletely missed ke MacNeil


    getting out of the car. When she looked up, she was startled to see ke MacNeil sitting in front of her,


    nearly jumping out of her skin.


    ke MacNeil tapped his fingers on the table and inquired coldly, "Were you on the phone?"


    Veronica McCarthy quickly pretended to hang up the phone and said, "Ah... yes, but it''s nothing. I just


    finished talking..."


    She quicklyposed herself and looked at ke MacNeil''s hand, asking "What''s wrong? Did the


    bandaging not go well? Do you need my help?"


    "When you get ss shards inside a wound, you have to remove all the ss fragments. Otherwise,


    the wound can easily get infected, and in severe cases, it can develop into an abscess..."


    ke MacNeil stared at her. "How did you know I was bandaging myself? Are you sitting here watching


    me?"


    Veronica McCarthy choked, unable to maintain herposure in the face of ke MacNeil''s powerful


    presence. Her expression showed a hint of panic.


    ke MacNeil asked again, "How do you know that my hand was injured by ss? Did you have


    someone following me?"


    Veronica McCarthy''s heart raced, struggling to withstand the overwhelming weight bearing down on


    her.


    She took a deep breath and shook her head helplessly, "Sir, you''re too suspicious. I happened to be


    waiting here and happened to see you bandaging yourself through the window..."


    "As for the wound, I''m a doctor, I can tell."


    ke MacNeil sneered, "I don''t believe you."


    As he spoke, ke MacNeil looked around calmly, without speaking.


    He held his breath and focused, trying to sense that familiar chilling presence, but couldn''t feel it.


    He arrived toote; whatever non-human entity it was, it escaped.


    ke MacNeil took out his phone again and hacked into Veronica McCarthy''s device, scrolling through


    it. However, he didn''t find any particrly strange files or images.


    He looked up and asked, "Was it directed at my daughter, Lilly Crawford? What is your purpose?"


    Veronica McCarthy was instantly horrified. How did he know?


    She hadn''t told anyone about what she did today!


    ke MacNeil leaned in slightly, gripping Veronica McCarthy''s wrist through her sleeve. "I''m not


    patient. Exin yourself properly or I''ll twist your hand."


    Veronica McCarthy felt her hand about to be twisted and forced a smile. "Sir, you''ve really


    misunderstood. I don''t even know your daughter..."


    Crack!


    ke MacNeil forcefully twisted her left wrist.


    Veronica McCarthy was on the verge of screaming in agony, but ke MacNeil had already grabbed


    the tablecloth from the table and stuffed it into her mouth.


    With only two or three customers on the second floor, and Veronica McCarthy sitting in a secluded


    corner booth, no one noticed anything unusual at the moment.


    Veronica McCarthy broke out in a cold sweat, unable to scream, her broken left hand trembling


    incessantly.


    In this modern society governed by the rule ofw, how could there be suchwless individuals who


    casually twist someone''s wrist without provocation?


    This is still a coffee shop, a public ce!


    This person is terrifying, simply... a criminal!!
