Chapter 296

Mike was stunned and speechless upon hearing Eddie's words. With his hand on his chest, he had no idea what to say. At that moment, Joaquin, motivated by his anger, asked with a glacial expression on his face, "So, what do you want then?!"

"There is only one thing I want to do—kill Mike to avenge my son!" Eddie responded coldly, staring at Joaquin and Katherine for a moment until he grunted. "But guess what? It seems that I don't have to do it myself. If you want the woman you love to live, you should do what I want you to do, Mr. Levisay. Kill Mike in exchange for the antidote! So, it's Mike's life for her life. What do you say? Deal?"

When Katherine heard that, she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. "What a clever plan you have there!"

"Haha. I was never planning to use the two of you, but since you insisted on sticking your nose into my business, I had no choice but to do what I had to!" Eddie laughed maniacally. "No matter what, I'm taking Mike's life today! Mr. Levisay, if you don't kill him for me, you're going to watch the woman you love die right in front of you. Mind you that she won't last for more than a few hours with the poison attack. By then, the only thing that awaits her is death, so think about it carefully because time isn't on your side."

Stiffening from head to toe, Joaquin was holding Katherine with one hand while his other one was seen clenching. In the meantime, Katherine, who was resting in his arms, could barely keep her eyes open as she fixed them on his chin and shook her head. Deep down, she didn't care about Mike's fate because it wasn't important to her. Instead, it was Eddie whom she had been trying to stop from creating trouble because she still needed him.

As for Joaquin, he didn't want Katherine to get into trouble because of him. After all, no one else was more important than Katherine. Thus, if he had to do it, he would kill Mike to make sure Katherine could survive. At the thought of that, he only knitted his eyebrows, his eyes filled with a strong, indifferent aura.
