Secretary's Secret Lover
Chapter 502 Confrontation

Chapter 502: Chapter 502 Confrontation

The female doctor shook her head and said, "He was rescued too late. He had been injected with too much poison and had been in the sea for one day and one night. The coldness had made the poison work faster."

"Faster?" Marvin frowned. "Didn’t you say that the first stage will last a month?"

"It will be less than a month now." The female doctor shook her head with some regret. "If he doesn’t wake up soon, he will probably go through the first course of treatment in bed."

Marvin’s face suddenly turned pale.

He did not believe it. He grabbed the female doctor’s arm tightly. His knees went soft, and he almost knelt down. But the doctor stopped him.

"Hey, Marvin, don’t be like this..."

Marvin said earnestly, "Do something. He just made up with his wife. His life has just turned for the better. Nothing must happen to him."

"Marvin..." The female doctor looked troubled.

She had known Marvin for many years and knew that he rarely begged others. But now, he was begging her for his good friend.

"You know me," the female doctor said, "If I didn’t want to save him, I wouldn’t have let you send him to my lab."

She looked at Marvin’s face, which had become thin and sunken in just a few days. She frowned and said, "To be honest, we researchers are very interested in rare cases. Even if you don’t beg me, I would like to conquer it. But..."

She paused and said, "Now I have to wait for him to wake up before I take the next step."

Marvin’s eyes lit up.

These words meant that there was still hope.

The next second, the female doctor burst his bubbles. "Don’t hold your hope high. I’ll try my best, but I can’t guarantee success."

Marvin frowned, unable to say a word.

The female doctor sighed heavily. "When he first came, I seemed to hear him say something like Yve. Then he fell into a deep coma."

After the female doctor left, Marvin stayed in the ward.

No one must know that this man was here. Otherwise, not only would this man be in danger, but the female doctor would also be in danger.

Marvin looked at the man, who was frowning even in his coma, and suddenly thought of the female doctor’s words.

Marvin cleared his throat and said, "Hurry and wake up. Yvette is waiting for you to go back."

Fuck!

It was unknown if it was Marvin’s illusion, but the man’s eyelashes moved!

Marvin was instantly excited and chanted, "Yvette is waiting for you. Hang in there. Yvette..."

...

After a while, his mouth got dry, but the man had no reactions at all.

Marvin went out and took off his mask. He gulped some hot water and then glanced at the weak and pale man.

Then he accepted the reality and put on the sterile suit again and returned to the ward.

Then he continued to repeat the words to the man in the bed...

New York.

Yvette caused Colton’s scheme to fall through.

Tanya stayed in the police station and demanded a thorough investigation.

No matter how the Beckford family tried to pull the strings, Tanya didn’t let them.

Juliette thought that she only needed to stay in here for 48 hours anyway. After 48 hours, they would have to release her no matter how Tanya disliked it. So she just sat back and waited.

Unexpectedly, Tanya took out a recording of a phone call before the 48 hours were almost up.

Although Juliette did not say who she wanted to be killed, it proved she wasn’t innocent.

This time, Juliette was stuck in the police station and could not get out.

She hated Tanya to death.

The tape recording could not be used as evidence, but Tanya took out new evidence to prove that Juliette was a suspect of joint murder.

Juliette gnashed her teeth in hatred!

Tanya clearly wanted to keep her in jail for as long as possible.

In the end, Juliette couldn’t stand it any longer and asked to see Tanya.

Tanya agreed.

She wanted to go in and ask Juliette whether she had a heart!

They had known each other for so many years, and Juliette had been sweet.

She was so good to Juliette, yet Juliette poisoned her without batting an eye. She even joined hands with Colton and used Yazmin to kill her only son!

Did these people think that they didn’t have to pay a price because they did not do it themselves?

She, Tanya, would let them know that everyone had to pay for what they did!

In the detention room.

Juliette’s hair was in a mess, and she looked in pain and exhausted. "Mom..."

She said in a broken voice and tried to use "mom" to arouse Tanya’s pity.

However, it only made Tanya want to tear her into pieces!

"Don’t call me mom!" she said fiercely, "Stop pretending. If you have something to say, just say it!"

"Mom, you can’t do this to me..."

Juliette refused to listen to her and continued to cry. "I am pregnant with Lance’s child..."

Tanya suddenly jumped up and slapped Juliette hard.

"Do you really think I don’t know which bastard made you pregnant?"

Juliette’s face was in so much pain!

She hated Tanya so much that she wanted to skin Tanya alive.

The guard stopped Tanya. "Behave! Do you want to continue this meeting or not?"

Juliette nodded in grievance.

The guard said to the two, "This is the first warning."

Juliette was so angry, but she could only swallow her anger and continue to pretend to be pitiful.

"Mom, believe me. That woman lied to you. The one she gave birth to is not Lance’s kid. The child in my belly is definitely Lance’s..."

Tanya said disdainfully, "Juliette, do you really think I’m as stupid as before?"

"Mom, what do you mean?"

Tanya said coldly, "You know what? There are still people alive in Jovanny’s family. I have found Jovanny’s biological sample!"

Juliette’s hand trembled under the table. She pretended to be calm. "Mom, you must be joking. So what if you find it? I have nothing to do with Jovanny!"

She touched her belly. "This child is not his."

She thought that as long as she did not agree to the paternity test, Tanya could do nothing about it.

But Tanya smiled and said, "I got the sample you left in the Beckford family’s private hospital. The paternity test is underway. Now with high technology, I can get the result in 24 hours."

"Juliette!"

Tanya’s eyes were full of pain. "I will definitely make you crazy bitch pay the price!"

After that, Tanya did not stay any longer and left straight away.

Juliette was so frightened that her hands trembled. This was what Tanya wanted to see.

After Tanya left, Juliette stood up and almost fell to the ground!

"Be careful!"

The guard rushed over to support her.

Juliette trembled all over as she returned to the detention room. After lying down, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

She sat up abruptly and muttered to herself, "I can’t just take it lying down!"

Late at night.

The alarm in the quiet detention room suddenly went off.

Then there were the hurried footsteps of the guard. After she opened the door of the detention room, she saw the woman lying in a pool of blood with blood all over her body.

In an instant, the guard turned pale with fright!

She cried out, "The pregnant woman in cell 202 has committed suicide by cutting her wrist. Hurry up and call the ambulance!"

As she spoke, she crouched down and bandaged the woman simply to stop the bleeding.

However, it wasn’t useful at all. The blood kept flowing out. It seemed that the cut was very deep.

Soon, the ambulance crew came in with a stretcher and carried Juliette into the ambulance.

The ambulance left, wailing.

Juliette’s tightly clenched hands finally opened slowly.

Her lips curled into a faint and proud smile...

...

By the time Yvette learned of this news, it was already noon the next day.

However, she had no time to pay any attention to it because the studio was in big trouble.

Every part of the production chain, from the raw materials to the production line, had gone wrong.

A large number of orders could not be delivered on time.

What was more, the finished products that had been made were all destroyed one night by two thieves and couldn’t be repaired.

Many clients hurried them to deliver goods, so Yvette set up a makeshift after-sales department to refund the clients.

However, a refund wasn’t always a satisfactory solution.

Some clients were attending banquets or celebrations. And there was not enough time to make new ones for them.

Even if they doubled the compensation, some customers weren’t willing to accept it.

Yvette had no choice but to split up with Susana and other executives and visit each client to apologize and compensate.

It was to show the sincerity of the studio.

Moreover, she made the decision to triple the compensation fee.

In other words, if it was a 16-million-dollar order, they had to compensate 48 million dollars.

After a rough estimation, the goods that were sold and destroyed were worth about 400 million dollars.

So they had to compensate 1.2 billion dollars!

After Lunarc was established, it made a gross profit of no more than 320 million dollars in total.

There was no way to fill the gap.

The police station told them that the thieves had been caught.

But the two people were so poor that they had no money to compensate at all. So they’d rather go to jail.

In fact, Yvette knew it from the beginning.

These two thieves were just scapegoats, and the real bad guys were Colton and the others.

They naturally would not let her have a good time since she ruined their plan.

Marlon was riled up. He transferred all the available money in the company into Yvette’s account.

But Yvette rejected it. She didn’t want her brother’s company to be in trouble too.

She could only use the money that her mother had left her!

In the afternoon, Yvette had been waiting at the entrance of a media company for almost three hours.

It was the middle of a hot summer, and the person Yvette was about to meet said she was coming out, but she was slow to show up and kept Yvette waiting outside.

Yvette knew that they were deliberately being difficult, but there was nothing she could do about it. Even so, she had to wait with a smile.

She could not allow the reputation that Lunarc had gained with great difficulty to be destroyed!

After Yvette stayed in the sun for a long time, the director finally walked over in small steps.

With a cup of coffee in her hand, she walked over unhurriedly.

"Hi..."

Just after Yvette said this, the cup of coffee was poured onto Yvette’s head and face.

Yvette didn’t believe this was an accident.

This woman was Juliette’s good friend. She had been told by the Beckford family to make things difficult for Yvette.

She covered her mouth and pretended to be surprised. "Ah, I’m really sorry. I didn’t see you..."

Yvette felt that she was full of it!

She had already spoken; how could this woman not see her?

Yvette wiped the coffee off her face carelessly, handed over the document, and said calmly, "Ms. Lynch, please sign this compensation agreement."

Skylar Lynch took it and glanced at it casually. She said unhappily, "Ms. Lynn, I say, you guys are too insincere. I need the products next week, but now you tell me they are destroyed, and the compensation is only three times the order’s worth. Isn’t this too little?"

She wasn’t the first difficult person Yvette met today.

She said sincerely, "Ms. Lynch, we have two plans. We can compensate you or buy substitutes for you."

She took out the tablet and handed it over, saying, "Versace is a world-famous brand. We can buy you finished products from them for your emergency use."

Indeed, Versace was a flawless brand.

It was a hundred times more famous than Lunarc and was an old brand with a long history.

But Skylar intended to make things difficult for her, so she naturally wouldn’t agree.

She flicked her hair and said disdainfully, "So considerate, aren’t you? But we have already made the announcement."

Skylar directly showed her the picture. It was an image of the concept that they had posted online.

Yvette had sharp eyes and immediately saw they posted it this noon.

She frowned. "Ms. Lynch, we have already called you at nine o’clock in the morning and told you the whole thing. Since you knew about the whole thing, why did you post the announcement at noon? What do you mean by this?"

Skylar’s expression changed, and then she said calmly, "I don’t know about it. It wasn’t me that answered your call..."

She was clearly shifting the blame away.

She even started to talk like a shrew.

"What’s wrong with you?"

She said impatiently, "It’s all your fault. But instead of apologizing to me, you are trying to lecture me? Is this how Lunarc does business?"

"I don’t think there is anything wrong with our attitude."

Yvette asked indifferently, "Then, may I ask how Ms. Lynch wants us to resolve this? Please give me an idea. I’ll..."

Before Yvette could finish speaking, Skylar shouted harshly, "Didn’t I tell you to apologize?"

She pushed the hair behind her ear and said smugly, "Then I’ll see if I want to talk with you."

Yvette looked at her. "Ms. Lynch, are you sure you want to make things so difficult for me?"

"When did I make things difficult for you?" Skylar widened her eyes and whispered, "These are the consequences of messing with the Beckford family."

Yvette heard it clearly.

Without hesitation, she put away the contract and said, "Thanks for your time, Ms. Lynch."

After that, she turned around and left!

"Hey!"

Skylar asked anxiously, "What do you mean by leaving like this?"

Yvette said, stopping in her tracks. "You don’t want to talk business with me at all."

Skylar rolled her eyes. "When did I say I don’t? You are so insincere..."

Yvette had one hand in her pocket. Her entire body was covered in filth, but she did not feel self-conscious at all. "I have already shown my sincerity. And Ms. Lynch is obviously making things difficult for me."

Skylar replied, "You are so impatient. Forget it, let’s not talk business then. I will immediately tweet and tell everyone how dishonest Lunarc is!"

Yvette watched her turn around and said coldly, "Ms. Lynch, are you sure you want to make more wrong decisions?"

Skylar turned her head and asked, "What do you mean?"

Yvette laughed. "Don’t tell me you think the Beckford family can rise again!"
