Midnight, in the guest room.
Lisa stood by the bed, her voice kept very low.
“Mark, I can’t take it anymore, I quit! Give me a hundred thousand dollars, transfer it to my personal account now!”
Mark frowned. “Are you crazy? Why would I give you so much money?”
Lisa laughed coldly. “The doctor says my rectal nerve damage is irreversible.“[]
She suddenly pulled down her pants, exposing her wound.
Under the light, her wound was festering and oozing pas.
The sight was horrifying
“If it keeps getting worse, I might need a colostomy bag! I’m asking for a hundred thousand–is that too much?“|||
Her voice grew louder, her emotions nearly out of control
“Or would you rather your wife find out about us?
Mark stared at Lisa intently, his voice seething:
w?”
“You… you dare threaten me?
Lisa didn’t back down.
“This isn’t a threat, it’s a transaction. You give me money. I walk away, everyone’s happy. Otherwise…“]
She didn’t finish, but her meaning couldn’t be clearer.
The room fell into dead silence
Mark’s test clenched and unclenched
Finally, he gave in
“Fine, I can give you the money. But a hundred thousand isn’t small change. All my money is with Caroline, I need time to move it around“]
He tried to stall, his tone somewhat pleading
“You leave first. Fl definitely transfer the money to you in a few days.“[]
Lisa laughed coldly, clearly not believing his lies
She pulled out a pre–prepared JOU from her bag and tossed it at Mark:[]
“Words are worthless. Sign this IOU first,““]
Mark looked down at the 100, his expression growing darker
“What? One percom interest per day for late payment? This isn’t even high–interest lending anymore, it’s robbery!“|||
“Then I’ll go tell your wife about our affair tight now..“[
Mark’s voice was practically squeezed from his throat.
Watching his hand trembling as he signed his name to the JOU]
I smirked
Want money?
Dream on!]
I turned and went back to the bedroom, quickly dividing the money in my account into several parts.[]
One part went into long–term investments ||
Another was transferred to an education fund
daccount set up in the baby’s name]
Early the next morning
Lisa hurriedly packed her bags, preparing to leave.
Her movements were light, as if afraid of waking someone.
When she dragged her suitcase to the door, I finally strolled out of the bedroom
“Lisa, where are you going so early?”]
She kept h
her head down, her voice somewhat hollow:
“Miss Evans, there’s an emergency at home, 1… I quit.“[]
I nodded, not asking further, just took out my phone and transferred her this month’s salary.]
This is your salary for the month. Take it. Be careful on the road.”
Her fingers trembled slightly, her eyes evasive, as if wanting to say something.
But in the end, she just hurriedly thanked me and quickly left []
I’m someone who keeps personal and professional matters separate, never withholding wages.]
But debts to be settled wouldn’t be forgotten, not a penny less
Back inside, Mark was still sleeping heavily.
His wound was getting worse
The air was filled with a rutting steach
These days, the frequency of his applying medicine had obviously increased
Even at midnight. F’could hear his suppressed groans from the bathroom
I went into the bathroom and took out the capsaicin 1 had prepared early and injected it into his ointment.[]
Ikume for him to reap what he sows!
I put the ointment back in place, returning to bed in a cheerful mood, quietly waiting for the show to begin]
Not long after, Mark woke up
He dragged his heavy steps into the bathroom, as usual removing his pants to treat the wound
His wound had started to fester
The edges even had some blackened necrotic tissue.
He but down, using cotton swabs dipped in medication to clean the wound, cold savent bending
Takisk tsk…
How did it get so severe?]
Frouldn’t help marveling at how much Mark could endure![]
on his forehead.
He’d roughed it out these few days, quite the strong i
emas indeed[]
Mark took out the ointment, squeezed out a large blobs, and applied it to the wound]
Then the next second, his body suddenly froze
“AHHHHHHH!!!~||
He let out a heart–rending scream
