Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

551 Drop the Gun Now!

It was late in the evening. The wind blew through the unfinished building, rustling the white plastic bags on the ground

Maria frowned and said to the man, "I've shown you the plans, and I'm sure there's nothing you can do here. My cousin and her husband are watching my every move, so | can't do anything too obvious."

The man was standing in the shadows. He had a cigarette in his hand, and the butt glowed red. Then he opened his mouth and uttered, "Do you think you'll be able to stay in the Carousel Group after this?"

"What do you mean? What else do you want to do? Are you trying to put all the blames on me? Do you realize the gravity of the situation if someone dies here?" Panicked, Maria snapped

"| wouldn't have done it when no one was present if | wanted to frame you."

The full moon was visible in the sky. Neither of these two realized that two other people had been lying on their backs behind the rubble pile eavesdropping on them

At the Fleosil border medical station, Patrick was administering medications to the sick

"Sorry. You can't get in." Suddenly, he heard someone outside arguing. Then Patrick cast a glance at the door. He told the patient to lie down and rest after quickly injecting him with medication

At that point, several people from outside the door burst in. The man in front was a medic from the United States Medical Corps. He was dressed

in an earthy camouflage military uniform and appeared oppressive. "What are you doing?" he asked, looking around vigilantly with his icy blue eyes

Patrick shook his head and asked, "What do you think I'm doing? I'm keeping track of the patient's vital signs. Do you want to take care of that as well? How about letting our medical team leave and leaving the place completely in your hands?"

Smith asked indifferently, "Are you collecting the patient’s information? | learned from a confidential source that you privately administered medications to patients. And we suspect that your country planned this epidemic."

Frowning, Patrick said, "What? Do you have any evidence? Do you realize that if | report what you said to the media, it will cause serious diplomatic problems between three countries?"

"We'll get the answer after we search the place. We'll find out if the rumors are true." With that, Smith waved a hand. Then his men held Patrick down

"Hey! What are you doing?!"Struggling to break free, Patrick snarled

"We're going to search the place," Smith said coldly. Several other men then started rummaging around the room

"Hands off our instruments! All of them are super expensive! Don't touch that! Keep your hands off them!"

"Shut the f**k up!" Annoyed, Smith aimed his gun at Patrick's temple

Feeling the coldness of the gun, Patrick was shocked, then he swallowed hard nervously
