Chapter 670 You Owe Me a Favor


    Meanwhile, the people nearby overheard Frank and Raque''s conversation and chose not to


    intervene this time, and some of them even smirked secretly.


    "Hello, Elspeth? Something happened at thepany. A few people arrived outside, causing a


    Nheless, Elspeth was surprised to hear that and asked, "What did they do?"


    "They''re holding banners, spraying paint on the walls, and shouting. They even brought a dead body


    with them. At this instant, they''re disturbing the employees at work, and they specifically demanded to


    see you. If they don''t see you, they won''t stop causing trouble."


    After hearing this, she felt a headache creeping in and said, "Alright. I got it. Just give me a moment. I''ll


    Since herpany was not far from Winthrop Residence, she drove alone and arrived in just over half


    an hour. While standing at the entrance, she took in the scene and, despite finding it difficult, stifled her


    anger at what those people had done.


    When Frank saw her, he approached her with a troubled expression. "These people are going too far!


    I''ve secretly contacted the police, and they''ll be here shortly."


    "It''s useless. Even if you call the police and have these people taken away, they''ll just reflect on their


    actions at most. Judging from their tone, they''re not likely to give up easily," Elspeth remarked as she


    sized up the situation. Then, she walked toward them and asked, "I am Elspeth Lynwood. Who wanted


    to see me?" Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.


    Meanwhile, the leader of the group halted his actions upon seeing her. "Oh, so you''re Elspeth


    Lynwood, huh? What a prettydy," the manmented as his lewd gaze freely scanned her body,


    making her feel disgusted and nauseous.


    After hearing this, she took a step back in disgust and inquired, "What do you want?"


    "I came to find you today to settle a score," the man said while leaning to the side and pointing at the


    body covered with a white cloth on the ground. "My mother had poor health to begin with. She died


    overnight after contracting the virus and taking your research medicine. Is there something wrong with


    your medicine?"


    Then, Elspeth exined calmly, "The medicine we produced was not only sold to your family. Many


    others have taken it without any issues. If you''re the only one encountering a problem, perhaps you


    should reflect on whether the problem lies with you."


    Obviously, the man wasn''t satisfied with her answer and instantly raged, "What do you mean by that?


    My mother died after taking your medicine! Shouldn''t there be a problem with your medicine?!" As the


    man spoke, he became emotionally unstable and started smashing things.


    On the other hand, Elspeth carefully observed his expressions. Although he appears irate, there are no


    telltale signs of rage in his eyes or in the fluctuations in his voice. It seems to me that he is acting.


    Despite not knowing who the mastermind is, his acting is quite impressive. Then, she queried, "If your


    mother has passed away, why are you disrespecting her by transporting her body here instead of


    giving her a proper burial? I honestly wonder if you are a filial son and whether the body on the ground


    is your mother or not."


    A hint of hesitation appeared in the man''s eyes upon hearing this. "Obviously, she is! Why else would I


    Elspeth smirked at his reply. "In that case, may I check the body?"


    He instantly became upset and stood in front of the body while warning her sternly, "My mother has


    already passed away, and she passed away after taking your medicine. I won''t allow you to touch her!"


    "What can I possibly do to a corpse in front of everyone? Besides, everyone knows I''m a doctor here. If


    you refuse to let me have a look, does that mean you have something to hide?" Elspeth couldn''t help


    but nce behind him, and when she did, she saw that the cloth covering the body had been moved


    ever-so-slightly. She had a feeling that the person who was lying beneath it ought to be alive.


    "What are you even talking about? My mother is dead! Shouldn''t you give me an exnation? Rather


    than fixating on the corpse, why don''t you consider how you canpensate me? Do you think I would


    deceive you?" While saying this, the man became infuriated and kicked a box near him. "Let me tell


    you. I''ll keep waiting here until you give me an answer. If anyone dares to touch my mother''s body, I''ll


    fight them!"


    Elspeth frowned, thinking she could handle the man before her, but she hesitated due to her


    pregnancy. Nheless, she had been trying not to provoke him, fearing the uncontroble


    consequences that might follow.


    At this moment, someone unexpectedly arrived at the scene just as she felt somewhat befuddled and


    was someone she hadn''t expected.


    "A grown man can''t solve his own problems and insteades here to confront a woman. How


    interesting."


    When Elspeth looked up at the source of that familiar andforting voice, she was filled with doubts.


    "What brings you here, Slevin?"


    He smiled as he approached her. "Did you forget our previous agreement? The time hase, so I''m


    here to discuss our cooperation. I wasn''t expecting to see you in this situation, though. How


    unfortunate." After saying this, he lowered his voice and continued, "I think… he''s not genuinely here to


    seek justice but rather to look for trouble."


    Her lips curled up, and she said, "I know." She had already realized that the man had impure intentions


    and disliked her for no apparent reason.


    "I know you''re carrying a baby right now, so you''re extra cautious. Why don''t you let me handle this


    matter instead?" Slevin''s smile grew wider as he looked at Elspeth.


    She didn''t even hesitate before rejecting him. "No, thanks. I don''t want to owe you a favor."


    "That''s a coincidence. I intended to make you owe me a favor. Otherwise, how could I get you willingly


    to cooperate with me?" he replied with a smirk. After saying that, he stopped negotiating with Elspeth


    and walked directly toward the man.


    "Who are you? Are you one of her toy boys?" At the sight of Slevin''s friendly face, the man thought he


    would be an easy target, so he didn''t hold back with his words.


    On the other hand, Slevin burst outughing upon hearing that. Never before have those three words


    been used to describe me. Even though he maintained a smile on his face, his aura changed.


    The man clicked his tongue in disdain and mocked, "You''re a disgrace among men, embarrassing


    yourself by constantly following behind a woman like apdog." Once the man was done speaking, he


    grew even more impatient with Slevin''s intense gaze. "What are you looking at? Haven''t you ever seen


    —"


    Before he could finish his sentence, Slevin threw a punch right into his face!
