Chapter 288: Night Visit

She pried open the man's mouth and found his teeth covered in poison. Cole Lyon had taken the poison from his mouth as soon as he caught him to prevent suicide. However, he hadn't expected the man to be so well-prepared, leaving no chance for survival. Tina fed him a pill and inserted a silver needle into his acupuncture point, saying coldly, "Cole, keep an eye on him. I'll work on an antidote."

The poison he took was extremely potent, comparable to the Shadow she had created. She could neutralize it but needed some herbs, which she currently lacked. Although the man had just died, she had given him a pill and sealed his heart with a silver needle, making death not so immediate. Extracting information from him would take some time.

Thinking of this, Tina's face darkened. "It's okay," Jared Farrell comforted her, holding her shoulder. "At least we know their target is me." Tina's face remained gloomy. "These people are reaching too far." Jared Farrell saw her anger and smiled rarely, "Are you worried about me? It seems like Tina wants to protect me."

"You are my fiancé," Tina pulled him close by the collar, "If anyone bullies you, it must be me." Her serious demeanor made Jared Farrell smile and pull her into his arms. "Tina is right, but I can't always be just a fiancé. When will you make it official?" He had already half-coerced Hugo into agreeing; as soon as Tina agreed to marry, he could register immediately.

"We'll see," Tina said noncommittally, playing with the silver needle hidden in her sleeve. "If I'm not satisfied with you, one needle will solve the problem." Jared Farrell whispered in her ear, "Tina, are you planning to murder your husband?" Cole Lyon stood aside, understanding Hayden Cohen's usual feelings of being a third wheel.

"Serena," he coughed lightly to signal his presence, "Should we continue investigating this matter?" Tina came back to her senses and pushed Jared Farrell away. "Yes." Since they had made a move, they wouldn't stop until they achieved their goal. They needed to act first and remove unnecessary obstacles.

"I'll have the brothers cooperate with you," Tina said, quickly sending several messages on her phone. "This villa will be your temporary base here. Without my orders, don't act rashly." Cole Lyon nodded in agreement. "Yes." "What about the Farrell family?" Tina looked at Jared Farrell with deep meaning in her eyes. Jared Farrell smiled coldly, making people fear him. "It seems someone can't wait." His legs had just "recovered," and they moved against him so quickly; they underestimated his abilities.
