Chapter 490 Not Eating is Bad for the Body

Then went straight into the bedroom,

I couldn’t close the bedroom door, he had removed all the locks, presumably for fear that I would lock

the door and do something he couldn’t control.

The window wouldn’t open, so I could only stand by it, lost in thought. But in the end, I couldn’t stay

still. I had no way of knowing Walter’s situation at that time, and I was so anxious that sometimes I

even felt like a complete idiot.

The sound of engines came from downstairs, it was two black Mercedes. With the help of the yard light,

I clearly saw the people getting out of the cars, it was Sebastian and a person I didn’t know.

Watching them hurry into the villa. I couldn’t help but walk to the bedroom door, wanting to know why

they were looking for Ezra.

Hearing footsteps, it seemed like a few people had entered the study. I hesitated for a moment, but

decided to go and listen. The villa wasn’t very large, so the study was right next to the master bedroom.

I tried to be as quiet as possible as I approached the study.

The door was locked, the sound inside was not loud, I vaguely only heard a few words, mostly about

delivery, heading north, and safety precautions. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Just as I was preparing to move closer to listen, the study door suddenly swung open. I didn’t have

time to react, so I found myself face to face with Ezra from inside the door.

Caught, I didn’t feel uncomfortable, I was just looking at him.

“Daniel, this…”,

“Ms. Conner,” Sebastian began, turning to the man beside him, “Long time no see.”

Looking at him, I didn’t speak. I just turned around silently and went back to the bedroom.

Ezra had sent the two away and, as he entered the bedroom, he was carrying a portion of crayfish

wrapped in tin foil and a cup of hot drink. He placed the items on the table and said, “Sebastian said

this is the best tasting crayfish in River City, you should like it.”

I thought this person was really crazy. Knowing full well that my saying I wanted to eat crayfish was just

to make things difficult for him, he actually brought some.

Pressing my lips together, I didn’t speak, having made up my mind not to waste another word on him.

After all, I knew he would never tell me the information I wanted to know.

Seeing my indifference, he glanced at the expensive watch on his left wrist and frowned slightly,

“Tabatha, not eating is not good for your health.”

Ha!

A murderer, caring about someone else’s physical well-being, ridiculous.

I pursed my lips, still remaining silent.

Upon seeing this, he raised an eyebrow, said nothing more, and stood up to walk directly towards the

door. When he reached the door, he stopped, turned around and looked at me, saying, “Unless you

have the courage to be buried with him, don’t torment yourself.”

I didn’t understand the meaning of his words, I abruptly pursed my lips and looked at him. He was

expressionless, didn’t say anything more, and directly closed the door and left.

I couldn’t get out, and there was no way to contact anyone outside, so the only thing I could do was to

wait.

The next day.

I hadn’t slept all night, practically waiting for dawn. When I heard some noise outside, I got up and went

out, and sure enough, I saw Ezra. He was holding car keys in his hand, seemingly ready to go out.

Seeing me, he slightly furrowed his brows, “Didn’t sleep all night?”

My mouth was so dry it hurt, I couldn’t speak. I struggled to swallow before I saw him manage to make

a sound, saying, “I can help you.”

His action of adjusting his collar paused slightly, he squinted at me and said, “Help me?”

I nodded, looking at him with almost certainty, “You came to River City not only to find me, but also to

do some business, right?”

He narrowed his eyes, then hooked up the corner of his mouth, looking at me and said, “Tabatha, you

thought about it all night, and this is the plan you came up with?”

“The risk was high this time, wasn’t it?” I began, staring intently at him, “At the same time, it’s enough to

prove that you guys would make a lot of money this time, right? And it would be a considerable income,

wouldn’t it?”

He was not in a hurry to leave. He leaned against the wall, and spoke as if he was watching a play,

“You continue.”

“It’s pure powder, isn’t it?” Looking at his expression, I subtly furrowed

my brow, knowing I had guessed right. I continued, “You must have brought quite a lot with you, and

you should have already arranged a contact person. It should be time for delivery, but the police and

Walter are both watching you. That’s why you couldn’t resist attackin Walter, planning to use me and

him to distract the police. If I’m not. mistaken, the police should find this place today, and you can take

th opportunity to make the deal while the police are focused here, right?
