Chapter 516 Go And Save Cali


    Hearing the sound of the handbag dropping, Vicente removed her hand from her eyes. She quickly


    squatted down and started sweeping Demi''s stuff back into the handbag.


    "Thank goodness, nothing''s broken. Well, it wouldn''t matter even if something was broken. I''d just


    buy a new one for Demi."


    When Nina saw Vicente shove the sapphire ne in the bag, she muttered, "Wait."


    "What''s wrong?" Vicente stopped and looked up at her.


    Nina got off John, walked over, and squatted down. "Let me see that ne."


    "Well, be careful. Girls value jewelry like crazy." Vicente took the ne out of Demi''s bag. On its


    way out, it tangled around a small bottle of perfume.


    Before the perfume fell back into the bag, Nina reached out and caught it. A rare fragrance floated


    out into the air, captivating and a little sweet.


    "This seems to be especially made. I''ve never seen this kind of perfume on the market," Nina said,


    sniffing the small bottle.


    "Do you like it?" John asked from the sofa.


    "It''s not bad." Nina looked up at him and smelled the perfume once again. Seeing this, John stood


    up, walked over, and reached for the bottle. Nina handed it to him, and he examined it carefully.


    Vicente said, "I''ve heard from Demi that that''s lover perfume, a ssic scent collection made by KK.


    The fragrance is mixed and matched by the customers themselves, so every bottle is unique.


    Demi''s boyfriend made this particr scent for her. I smell it on every dress she wears."


    "Mixing fragrance is a veryplicated and time-consuming process. It requires a lot of patience."


    Nina sighed. "Demi''s boyfriend must love her very much. I can only imagine the time and effort he


    put into making something this excellent just for her."


    Vicente nodded in agreement, "I agree. Well, let''s put it back then. I can''t rece it easily if we


    break it."


    "Fortunately, the impact didn''t shatter it." Nina put the perfume back into Demi''s handbag and began


    to examine the sapphire ne Vicente just handed to her.


    At this time, John was now standing beside her. He deliberately pushed Vicente aside earlier when


    she was not looking and then acted as if nothing happened.


    Vicente could only bite back her retort. This was no time to be petty.


    "What''s wrong with that ne?" John asked.


    "Nothing. Judging from its color, purity, cutting, and weight, I say it''s as expensive as a diamond."


    Nina stared at the ne for a while and frowned when she spotted the unique logo of the


    famous jewelry designer, Thera. "I knew it. I''ve seen this ne before."


    John asked, "Where?"


    Vicente interjected, "You must have seen Demi wear it before, but since the car ident left a scar


    on her neck, she has been wearing a silk scarf in its ce."


    "No." Nina shook her head and gazed ahead thoughtfully. "I''ve seen this very same ne on


    Ruby''s neck."


    "Ruby?" Vicente was displeased to hear Jett''s wife''s name. "So what? Women like jewelry. It''s not


    strange that Demi and Ruby have the same nes."


    "Yes, but the problem is that this ne was designed by Thera. Thera''s designs are known for


    being unique. Every piece is only one of its kind. I remember it clearly. I''ve seen this around Ruby''s


    neck."

    "Then one of them has to be fake," Vicente said calmly. "Demi''s piece has to be the forgery. Ruby


    will never buy herself fake jewelry, and Jett will never give her one as a gift."


    Vicente''sst sentence immediately enlightened Nina. When her eyes met John''s, John understood


    what she was thinking right away.


    The two of them breathed at the same time, "Demi."


    "What is it?" Vicente asked, staring nervously at them.


    Nina whipped her head at her and asked seriously, "Vicente, where did you say Demi was?"


    "She told me she was going to see Cali." Vicente did not understand why Nina suddenly looked


    worried. "What''s wrong?"


    "She was going to see Cali?" Without waiting for Vicente''s answer, Nina cursed under her breath.


    "Damn it! Go, John! You have to go save Cali!"


    "Okay." Without hesitating, John nodded and quickly left the ward.


    Nina was about to run after him when Vicente pulled her arm and asked, "What''s happening?


    What''s Demi going to do? Why did you send John to save Cali?"


    "Demi is Jett''s woman," Nina said affirmatively, following John out of the ward. As she quickened


    her pace, she exined, "Cali must have found Demi out on their way here with the twins, so she


    took Van and Don and ran. Now she''s in aa. Demi''s going to silence her permanently to protect


    her cover. If you hadn''t knocked over the handbag just now, we wouldn''t have realized this."


    "What? Demi''s on Jett''s payroll?" Astonishment branded itself all over Vicente''s face. She trotted


    along with Nina and asked her for more information.


    But Nina did not have much time to exin. She quickly ran to the elevator, fervently praying in her


    heart that it would not be toote to save Cali.


    ''I can''t let anything happen to Cali,'' Nina thought, trying her best to remain calm.


    However, while Nina was examining the sapphire ne earlier, Demi had already found Cali.


    Demi considered strangling her, but looking up at the camera in the ward, she gave up. She needed


    another n, so she turned around and quietly left Cali''s ward.


    In less than ten minutes, a nurse wearing a surgical mask walked into Cali''s ward with a te in


    hands. On the te were a needle, a syringe, and a small medicine bottle filled with a colorless


    liquid called potassium chloride.


    Demi carefully set the te on the table beside Cali''s bed. She thought that spiking her infusion


    bottle with a lethal dose of potassium chloride would be a better way to go than strangling her or


    smothering her with a pillow. Touching her directly would set off rms while poisoning her would


    not.


    Picking up the needle and syringe, she nced at her target''s pale face and said in a low voice,


    "This isn''t my fault, Cali. You can only me yourself for knowing too much. I can''t let you wake up


    and rat me out."


    As soon as she finished her words, she plunged the needle into the medicine bottle and filled the


    syringe with the drug. Then, she held the syringe in the air and gently pushed the plunger, sending


    excess liquid out in a clear arc.


    Demi approached the bed and looked at Cali''s infusion bottle. She picked up the bottle with her left


    hand and inserted the needle into the bottle''s mouth with her right hand. Then, she smiled and


    pressed her thumb on the plunger.


    Before she could start poisoning the infusion bottle, she heard rapid footsteps approaching from


    outside.


    Demi frowned as someone pushed the door open.


    When John pushed the door open, he saw a nurse beside Cali''s bed, hanging up an infusion bottle.


    Cali was okay. Everything was fine.


    At this moment, Cali opened her eyes. Behind the mask, Demi stared at her with wide eyes. She


    lowered her head, picked up the te and turned around.


    The moment her eyelids flew open, Cali saw white walls and a masked nurse hovering over her.


    She immediately knew that she was in the hospital.


    She also saw a tall figure walking toward her. She blinked several times before she recognized who


    it was.


    "Sean?" Cali''s voice was as hoarse as a crow.


    But John did not hear her at all. He was staring after the nurse. He called after her, "You didn''t seem


    surprised that I just rushed in here."
