Chapter 836 Looming Danger
J and Draco boarded the ne and settled down in their seats.
After putting their luggage away in the overheadpartment, Draco turned to J. "Do you want
something to drink?"
J had been talking with Brandon before boarding the ne. They had spoken for a long time,
so her throat was indeed a little dry. "Yes, please. Orange juice would be good. Thank you, Mr.
Wesley."
As the two of them fell into a conversation, they didn''t notice the man sitting behind them. He was
wearing a baseball cap, which he pressed down to cover his face. A strange, unsettling smile
appeared on the corners of his mouth.
It was none other than Jorge!
Two days ago.
Jorge was resting on the bed, knowing there was no hope for his broken leg at all. He was damned
to be a cripple for the rest of his miserable days. Only two faces filled his mind when he heard the
prognosis. His hatred for Brandon and J consumed him, keeping him awake.
As hey down, seething in anguish and fury, a message came from a mysterious man. He was the
same person that saved Jorge before.
The man told him that J and her boss, Draco would be on a business trip to Northcliffe. He told
Jorge to tail them.
The man had even sent a vial of poison to Jorge. Once Jorge got on the ne, he should find an
opening to inject it into J.
The poison was extracted from a viper, and it was slow-acting. The symptoms would almost be the
same as being bitten by the snake; the only difference was that the toxin took effect slowly. By the
time it would be detected, the person''s organs would have already failed.
It would be a slow, excruciating death.
Once the ne took off, there would be no professional medical staff or ess to equipment. There
would be no way to save J in time.
Most importantly, the unnamed man had already made calctions. The duration of the flight was
about the same as the time it took for the poison to act. When the nended, Jorge could take
advantage of the chaos and escape safely.
The n was foolproof. Jorge nced at the small syringe in his hand. The green liquid gleamed
inside the tube, giving off a sinister light.
He turned to his crippled leg and gritted his teeth. This was all because of J. If she hadn''t butted
into the matter with Elizabeth, his life would have been so different. He would have already been a
rich man by now from the hundreds of thousands of dors made from the sales of the design drafts
he stole from Elizabeth.
Brandon had gotten involved too—putting a high price on Jorge''s head and even going as far as
freezing his bank ount. Without money, Jorge didn''t have far to run.
The two of them made his life hell.
He would make sure to return the favor.
J had no way of knowing the danger that lurked behind her.
Draco handed J the orange juice he got from the stewardess, and the two of them talked about
the Iridescent Show. J gulped two mouthfuls of orange juice, and then took out the designs and
began to read.
As she checked the details, a thought came up to her. "Do we need to check the venue in advance?
What if your designs don''t fit with the aesthetic?" Draco ndly flipped through the documents in his
hands. "Don''t worry. I already know what the stage would look like, and the pieces I''ve designed
have been sent there in advance. Everything''s been taken care of. We can take it easy. All there''s
left is to show up."
Only then could J let out a relieved breath. The Iridescent Show was of utmost importance to
her. They couldn''t afford for anything to go wrong.

There were still a few minutes left before the ne took off.
J nced at her phone, wondering if she should send a message to Brandon. Before she
boarded the ne, she had sensed that his mood was down.
She put down the documents she had been leafing through and took another sip of orange juice.
Then, she stood up to go to the bathroom. Jorge had never taken his eyes off J since she
appeared. He watched her get up, his blood pumped with excitement. The perfect chance had
presented itself, and she was walking right into his trap. Pushing himself up on his good leg, he left
his seat and limped after J to the bathroom, his mind reeling with eagerness. He could almost
taste his revenge.
