Chapter 90 Opening The Box Of Pandora
Genevieve dashed to the door barefoot.
She opened the door and was about to rush out. Unexpectedly, she almost bumped into Timothy who came to help her to do a check-up.
When Timothy was about to collide with Genevieve, he grabbed her arm and held on to her. “Hey, you just woke up. Do you really have the energy to go outside after sleeping for three days?”
Genevieve panicked. When she saw clearly the person in front of her, her tense nerves loosened up.
“Dr. Jensen, why am I here?”
“You don’t remember?” Timothy took her back to the room and asked her to sit on the couch. He then took out a needle and drew some blood from her.
“Well, that kind of drug will erode the human nervous system. That explains why you lost your memory. You were drugged too. That drug is contraband, and it’s extremely strong. I could only prescribe one antidote at that time, and Armand asked me to inject it for Patrick,” he explained.
Genevieve pursed her lower lip, and tears gushed down her cheeks. “I was sexually assaulted, wasn’t I?”
“Huh?” Timothy raised his head to stare at Genevieve with a puzzled look. “I had no choice but to call Armand for help as you were in that condition. Is that called sexual assault?”
Genevieve blinked. “Oh! It was Mando. I thought…” She finally understood.
The last person she saw was Cooper. Hence, she thought she was taken advantage of by Cooper.
Timothy knew what she was worried about. He chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. No one dares to touch Armand’s belongings. Cooper was detained for ten days without bail.”
“What happened?” Genevieve hurriedly asked him.
Then, Timothy told her what happened in the past three days when she was in a comatose state.
The first was that Cooper attempted to sexually assault her. However, due to insufficient surveillance evidence, he was detained by the police for ten days.
All headlines of major media sites were negative news about Cooper. This had a great impact on Specter Corporation. Several companies that had worked closely with Specter Corporation had terminated their contracts with Specter Corporation.
“The other one is about Queenie,” said Timothy while pressing the cotton swab on Genevieve’s finger after drawing some blood. “This kind of illegal drug is extremely hard to be obtained in the market. So we guessed someone gave this to her and instructed her to drug you.”
Timothy added, “At first, Armand wanted to interrogate her when she woke up. But Steven found that she was dead when he broke in to get her.”
He then continued, “That kind of aphrodisiac can easily kill a person, which is why it is prohibited worldwide. She took at least three times of that drug in one night…” Considering that Genevieve might be too embarrassed to listen to the details, Timothy did not say further. “A lot of chat records have been deleted in Queenie’s WhatsApp. Once she died, all the clues were cut off.”
Hearing that, Genevieve was terrified.
She had been in contact with Queenie several times and thought that the latter was rather ignorant. What was more, she made it quite obvious that she was out to get her.
Genevieve immediately realized Queenie’s conspiracy when she arrived at Lovely Heart Hotel for the orientation. She wondered how Queenie could come up with such a ruthless and indiscriminate trick.
Never did she expect that Queenie was actually instructed by someone else.
Noticing that Genevieve’s face turned pale, Timothy said, “Don’t worry too much. Armand will take care of it. Do you feel discomfort anywhere?”
Genevieve shook her head. “When I just woke up, my hands and feet felt weak. But I feel much better now. Thanks, Dr. Jensen.”
“You’re welcome. Armand is paying me after all.”
Timothy put away the tools on the table and stood up. Since you’re all right, I will go back to the hospital now. Steven is still waiting outside. When you’re done, just ask him to send you back.”
“Okay.” Genevieve nodded.
Genevieve walked to the bathroom to take a hot bath after sending Timothy off.
After taking a shower, she felt refreshed, and her mind was completely clear.
Genevieve picked up the new dress that was on the chair and put it on.
When she was rummaging for the hair dryer, she accidentally saw a necklace on the bedside table when she glanced at it.
It seemed like the necklace that was around Armand’s neck all the time.
Genevieve immediately looked away after taking a mere glance and turned around to go to the bathroom. Soon, she found the hairdryer from the cabinet under the sink.
She turned on the hairdryer and blew her hair, but her mind was occupied with what happened on that night not long ago.
That night, she walked out of the bathroom in Armand’s room and helped him to pick up the clothes on the floor. Suddenly, she found that necklace in his clothes.
She felt curious and was about to open the pendant to have a look. However, Armand suddenly came out of the bathroom and snatched the necklace away.
Recalling Armand’s expression that night, Genevieve was even more curious at that moment.
She felt as if the pendant was Pandora’s box, and she wanted to open it so badly.
After drying her hair, she walked out of the bathroom and walked to the bedside table.
She picked up the necklace and hesitated for a few seconds. She could not hold back her curiosity and opened the pendant in the end.
Genevieve was stunned for a moment when she saw what was in the pendant. She lowered her gaze and pursed her lips tightly.
