Chapter 380 Kicking the Painkiller Habit

Tiffany wore a look of supreme confidence.

Lucy wanted to ask her what her plan was, but Tiffany wouldn't say, only telling Lucy to trust her.

She also told Lucy she would handle it.

Lucy looked at her and took a deep breath. "Please, don't get me into trouble again. It was hard enough to pay off the debts from the casino. Just promise me you won't gamble anymore." Lucy had struggled to repay a mountain of gambling debts on Tiffany's behalf.

When she was abroad, she knew that if Tiffany hadn't gambled, things wouldn't have spiraled out of control.

Chloe made a phone call to Smith.

All she got in response was a long silence.

After a while, Smith sighed. "Jioleek, I hope you can look after James for me. I can't go there right now. James has been using painkillers for quite some time. Getting off them will be tough." Chloe immediately understood that Smith wanted her to help James kick his painkiller habit.

"Actually, I suggest going through with the surgery."

Chloe had considered it.

"If the bullet isn't removed, James will still be in pain. When the pain becomes unbearable, he'll want to use drugs again, otherwise, he'll just have to endure it. It's beyond his control." People naturally sought to avoid pain and seek pleasure.

James wasn't foolish. Of course, he'd find ways to ease the pain.

Having tasted the relief that painkillers brought, he wouldn't let go easily.

And even if he did kick the habit, what if the wound hurt again later?
