Chapter 336


    For the time being, thest thing he wanted to hear was Leah’s voice, so he hung up the call.


    When the call ended, Leah was fuming. She was extremely close to hurling her phone away.


    She realized that controlling Elio was no easy feat.


    Furthermore, she had thought that once she had his parents under her thumb, Elio would be putty in


    her hands. But who would’ve thought, for ra, he’d go so far as to disregard his parents’ safety?


    However, things had already gone very far, and she needed to ensure ra was out of the picture for


    Emmett.


    After a brief hesitation, Leah picked up her phone and made a call, which was quickly answered.


    “Why the hell are you calling me?”


    “Guess what? I need a drug that can control people.”


    The person on the other end of the line was taken aback before bursting intoughter


    “Do you take me for some drug guru from a novel? Do you have any idea of the mess you’ve made for


    the Milburn family? You have the nerve to call me after you leaked the Atwood family’s affairs, do you?”


    “Yes, that was me! But I did it for the good of our entire family. If you give me the drug, I’ll remember the


    favor.”


    “I don’t have this drug, nor can I make it! Mrs. Atwood chewed me out! What else do you want? I’m


    clueless!”


    Newell Milburn tly refused her, but Leah justughed and said, “Our family’s secret recipe has been


    passed on to you; how can you not know? Do you think I’ll back down after saying this much?”


    It seemed Leah was hell-bent on getting the recipe.


    Newell started to worry, if he didn’t agree, there would be consequences.


    “If you agree now, I’ll remember the favor. I’ll consider you in the future for any good opportunities. But


    if you don’t cooperate, don’t me me!”


    “What are you going to do to me?”


    “I don’t want to do anything to you; I just want that drug!”


    Time seemed to stand still.

    The voice on the other end of the line disappeared. Just as Leah thought he had hung up, Newell


    suddenly spoke.


    “So, who is this drug for? Let me think about it…”


    “I can’t tell you now, but you’ll know soon.”


    Newell hesitated and quickly said, “No way! If you use this drug to do evil, I’ll be left holding the bag. I


    can’t take on this responsibility!”


    Leah chuckled, “You don’t need to worry about anything else; just give me the drug.”


    “The Milburn family is already down in the dumps; I just want to live a peaceful life! If you use the drug


    to harm someone, the cops wille for me. I don’t want any trouble!”


    “Don’t worry, no one will know you gave me the drug. Only our family knows about the secret recipe. I


    won’t sell you out; who would say anything?”


    “How can I be sure you won’t sell me out? Your n is a mystery to me. You won’t even tell me!”


    “So, name your price, and I’ll buy your drug. How about that?”


    Leah was running out of patience and went straight to discussing the price.


    However, when he heard he could profit, Newell started to show interest, “How much are you willing to


    pay?”


    “I can give you 10% of mypany’s shares; what do you say?”


    “Are you serious?”


    “Of course! Do you think I called you just for fun?”


    However, the more sincere Leah seemed, the more worried Newell became. Unless she was nning


    something nefarious, why would she be willing to pay such a high price?


    But the 10% in shares could secure him a worry-free life after retirement. That was a huge temptation


    for Newell!
