Chapter 365 All His Assets Were Gone

A black BMW sped down a straight asphalt road.

Inside the car, coughing echoed nonstop. Wendy looked at Julia worriedly. "Julia, what are we going to do about your cough?"

Julia coughed violently. Suddenly, she spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Julia, you're coughing up blood!" Wendy panicked. "What do we do now? We don't have any medicine! That wretched Natalie won't let Goodwill Pharmacy sell medicine to us." She patted Julia's back and cursed Natalie out.

Moments later, she suggested, "Let's rob their supplies. It's late and dark. No one will be there. We'll sneak in and steal the medicine. There must be no one at the pharmacy now. Natalie is probably at the hospital with Marcus, waiting on Sophia. If we go now, we'll definitely find the medicine you need."

"Alright... let's give it a try." Julia was tempted. Only the Goodwill Pharmacy's medicine could treat her condition. The unending cough was like torture to her.

"Okay, we'll go now."

"Head to Goodwill Pharmacy," Wendy ordered, then handed Julia a thermos of warm water. "We need to find Ruby. I tried calling her, but she's still not answering. If she goes back to the Sinclair residence and Ivan catches her, it won't end well for us."

Wendy frowned and said, "Julia, call Ruby."

"Okay." Julia took out her phone and dialed Ruby's number.

It rang for a long time before someone answered. "Hello, are you Ruby's mother?"

"Who are you?" Julia's brow furrowed. "Why do you have my daughter's phone?"

"I'm her boyfriend. Why else would I have her phone? Ma'am, it's late. Don't disturb our sleep."
