Chapter 1362 Karma
Juan instantly whipped out his phone to give Nicole a call and inquire whether jabbing someone a few times would result in the person’s death.
But before he could even make the call, a heavy blow unexpectedly landed on the back of his neck.
“A s-sneak… attack!”
Seeing stars, he collapsed onto the ground.
Sally then jumped down from the treatment bed and looked down at Juan, who was lying on the ground. Drawing her leg back, she gave him a hard kick. “You jabbed me four times, so I’ll pay you back twice… No, three times, five times, and even ten times!”
After doing that, she exerted all her strength to haul him up from the ground onto the treatment bed.
When she was done, she even went out to buy a cup of milk tea to replenish her energy. Then, she sat before the treatment bed and sipped her tea languidly.
The moment Juan came to, he was greeted by the sight of her drinking milk tea leisurely.
“You’re awake?”
“H-How dare you sneak up on me?”
Sally blinked her eyes, feigning ignorance. “What do you mean? I don’t get it.”
Oh my God, she’s still putting on a show!
His temper spiking, Juan made to spring up from the bed, only to realize that he couldn’t move at all, his hands and feet bound. At a closer look, he noticed that the rope was thick and the binding secure, so struggling wouldn’t do him any good.
No wonder she dares to drink milk tea so leisurely in front of me!
“Why did you tie me up?” Juan demanded sharply.
“It wasn’t me who tied you up!”
“It wasn’t you who tied me up or sneaked up on me? We’re the only ones here, so was it an apparition if not you? I just knew that you’re not simple, but I didn’t expect you to stoop to this!”
“Since that’s what you think of me, Mr. Juan, I won’t waste my breath defending myself. Now, I’ve got something very important to tell you.”
“What is it?”
At the sight of Sally’s solemn expression, Juan turned somber as well.
“You’ve been poisoned. After you were knocked out earlier, someone fed you poison.”
Juan eyed her dubiously. “Stop making up lies here! You were the one who knocked me out, so it must have been your doing if I’d truly been poisoned!”
“How could I possibly feed you poison? I’d only cure you!”
“Cure?”
As Sally looked at the somewhat nervous Juan, she inwardly jumped for joy.
It’s finally time for me to take my revenge! Just you wait, kid!
Turning, she looked at the exquisite box with silver needles at the side. She then unhurriedly took out two needles from the bunch of neatly arranged silver needles that glinted coldly.
“Mr. Juan, the person who poisoned you told me that only acupuncture will work to cure you. Although I’m not skilled in acupuncture, he taught me a bit, so don’t worry. You’ll be fine after I insert the needles at a few acupoints. Please bear with it, okay?”
Argh! She spouted so much nonsense about me being poisoned and curing me, but her motive is none other than to jab me for revenge! How utterly evil!
“How many times are you going to jab me?”
“I don’t want to jab you, but the poison will remain in your body if I don’t do so. Just bear with it for a bit. I’m only doing this for your own good.”
After saying that, Sally jabbed Juan in the shoulder.
“Ouch! Why does it hurt so much? You’re truly vicious, woman! You’ll damage me. You can’t afford to compensate me if anything happens!”
“This is just the first needle, yet you’re already wailing like a baby. I hope you won’t pass out like me earlier after the dozens to follow.” Sally gazed at Juan with sympathy written all over her face.
Juan grew livid upon hearing that. “Pfft! You were merely faking it just now! If you really jab me dozens of times, I might pass out for real. Not only that, but you might even kill me! Hurry up and untie me!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll untie you after I’m done.”
When she had finished saying that, she brandished the silver needle in front of him and jabbed him on the shoulder again.
With that, Juan let out another howl. I know karma is a b*tch, but I didn’t expect it to come back to bite me so quickly!
