Chapter 669 Chapter 669 Andrew had Marcus figured out by now .


    If he had to sum him up in one sentence , it would be a closet hedonist , through and through .


    The two were originally nning to head back to Rhodes Corporation together .


    However , before they could leave , Andrews phone rang it was Francesca .


    Andrew , where are you ? Get to Moonlit Apothecary right now Ns in critical condition ! Her voice was trembling , thick with panic and distress .


    Andrews face turned ice cold .


    What happened ? Take a deep breath and tell me everything ! Francesca broke down into sobs .


    That hunchbacked bastard Aspens guy the one she hired ! He hit N , Andrew ! Please , hurry ! The poison is spreading fast I cant save her ! Andrew did not waste another second .


    He hung up , mmed his foot on the gas , and tore through the streets toward Moonlit Apothecary .


    If Francescas description was right , N had been struck by Gordons guebringers Palm .


    Andrew had survived it before because he was immune to toxins .


    However , N was just an ordinary woman .


    Taking a hit from a peak senior grandmaster like Gordon and still being alive was already a miracle .


    Nheless , Gordon had just signed his own death warrant Andrews eyes burned with pure , lethal intent .


    It had been a long time since he wanted to kill someone this badly .


    Aspen was on the list too .


    He had tolerated her games long enough .


    Now that she hade after his people , there was no longer any mercy left for her .


    The moment his G Wagon screeched to a halt outside Moonlit Apothecary , Andrew jumped out and stormed inside .


    1 Francesca was sitting on the floor , cradling N in her arms .


    Her face was streaked with tears , her expression a mix of helplessness and despair .


    She had tried to neutralize the poison , but even touching Ns skin made her hands sting .


    guebringers Palm a poison so deadly that even minor contact could spread it .


    Fran , move ! Andrew quickly took N from Francescas arms and carefullyid her on the bed .


    Pulling her cor aside , he saw the ckened imprint of a palm on her shoulder .


    Tendrils of dark poison had already spread outward , creeping through her veins .


    Her breathing was faint , her eyelids shut tight , and even in unconsciousness , her face was twisted in pain .


    Andrews gaze shifted to the floor where a pool of fresh blood had gathered beneath her .


    His fury roared even hotter as he thought , Gordon … youre a dead man .


    Andrew , can you save her ? If N dies , I swear to God Ill hunt Aspen down myself ! Francescas voice was hoarse from screaming , her eyes red with rage .


    Andrew pulled out a vitality pill and slipped it into Ns mouth , temporarily preserving her life force .


    Then , with swift precision , he began inserting silver needles into her acupuncture points , drawing out the deadly poison thread by thread .


    Calm down .


    As long as Im here , N will not die .


    1/2  Chapter 669 It was only then that he took a second to reassure Francesca The process was grueling , For nearly five hours , Andrew worked tirelessly , extracting everyst trace of poison from Ns body .


    One by one , the silver needles absorbed the toxins , turning ck as ink .


    The moment they touched a bowl of water , the liquid turned pitch dark , swirling with lethal vemom .


    Francesca watched in horror .


    Oh my … if you had been even a littlete , N wouldve … She could not bring herself to finish the sentence .


    Instead , she choked back a sob , overwhelmed with relief .


    The ck palm mark on Ns shoulder had faded significantly .


    To ensure no lingering effects , Andrew fed her a few detox pills , ensuring that everyst remnant of the guebringers Palm was eradicated .


    Finally , he let out a long breath .


    On the bed , N slowly opened her eyes , her voice barely a whisper .


    Dr.


    Aicker … Dr.


    Lloyd … youre all here … Francesca immediately gripped her hands .


    N , dont be scared ! Andrews here youre safe now ! N turned her weak gaze toward Andrew , offering a faint smile .


    Dr.


    Lloyd … thank you … But you need to leave … That hunchbacked man is dangerous .


    He was looking for you … When I said I didnt know where you were , he said … hed make me experience a fate worse than death …
