Chapter 237: Larry's inquiry

"Nnooo… nnnoooo…"

Zi Chen struggled to get away from Larry's grip while crying out loudly for help. But all his efforts failed due to the strong sound barrier.

As time ticked by, the black potion began showing its effects on Zi Chen's body. Larry waited until Zi Chen's eyes turned gray.

First, Larry asked a few basic questions and confirmed that Zi Chen is under his control now. With a relaxed sigh, he sat back beside Zi Chen's bed.

"Larry, what are you doing?" Zi Chen cried out while gritting his teeth. Since swallowing the black liquid, Zi Chen felt like thousands of insects crawling under his skin. If he tried to scratch the itching, the burnt skin tore like paper.

With a proud face, Larry began laughing manically. "Hahaha, you just swallowed the venomous fire worm's secretion. If you don't receive an antidote by the next hour, your entire skin will rot and your bones will wrinkle. You won't be able to talk in this life. Hahaha…" Larry, leaning close to Zi Chen's face, laughed triumphantly.

"Larry, why are you doing this to me? I'm your close friend. Do you forget how much wealth you gained because of me?" Zi Chen questioned in a painful tone.

"Shut up, you bastard." Larry roared angrily. "What happened to your friendship when you tried to subdue my fiancee? Do you think I'm an idiot to guard your door while you fuck my girl? Today, you will pay for treating me as a fool."

Larry placed his wand on Zi Chen's face and poked with a fierce look. Zi Chen squealed with painful cries. Tears began rolling down Zi Chen's cheeks as he tightly gripped the bed to withstand both external and internal pain.

"Larry, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have behaved like that with you, fiancee. Please show mercy." Zi Chen began pleading while trying to hold Larry's hands.

Larry distanced himself and laughed with an evil grin. "You want mercy... hahaha… I will give you mercy. But first, answer my question. Where is Ria? Is she alive or dead?"

Larry showed the glass veil containing green antidote and tempted Zi Chen with a wiggling glass veil.

But Zi Chen's face crumbled when he heard Larry's question. "Larry, what are you talking about? Isn't Ria with you?" Zi Chen asked in a shaky tone.

"Bastard… stop acting. If you don't reveal the truth, I will rip your skin. Tell me, did you kill Ria? Or she died while resisting your rape attempt. SPEAK…!" Larry held Zi Chen's throat and gave him a threatening look.

"Larry, believe me. That day, when you were drunk, Ria left in half way. After that, I sent you home, and I went to practice. I didn't even see Ria after that night. If you don't believe me, ask the Arena servants who stood at the training rooms." Zi Chen spoke sincerely with a pleading look. He did not understand how to prove his innocence to Larry.

Larry didn't believe Zi Chen. He strongly believed that Ria got raped and murdered, and Zi Chen is denying it because he might kill him in anger.

With the passing of time, the poison invaded Zi Chen's body, and he began panting with shaky hands.

"Larry, save me. I will be your slave for the rest of my life. Please, Larry, I beg you." Zi Chen began pleading while twisting and turning on the bed. His internal organs began scorching with corrosive sounds.

"Tell me the truth. Where is Ria?" Larry asked again while flashing the antidote before Zi Chen.

Zi Chen gritted his teeth and tried to deny Larry's claim. But even after a long time, Larry didn't show any mercy.

As he lost patience, Zi Chen became determined to accept the crime for the time being. "Larry… I hid Ria in my personal room at Arena. I still didn't touch her. Now, give me the antidote. I will hand over Ria to you." ZI Chen spoke in a shaky tone while controlling the bone itching.

Larry stared at Zi Chen's face for a long time with a doubtful look. Convinced by the struggling state of Zi Chen, he began walking towards the door without passing antidote to Zi Chen.

"Larry… Larry… Stop… Larry…" Zi Chen cried out with a fierce glare. But only the maniacal laughter of Larry reverberated in the room.

"I'm not an idiot to save my enemy, young master. Don't worry, the poison won't kill you. But you will be in bed for the rest of your life." Larry waved his hand with a smiling face and closed the room door.

On the top of Healing Sun Peak...

Early in the morning, Sophia reached Kent's residence and forcefully pushed the room door. With a loud thud, the room door opened, waking up Kent and Amelia in surprise.

"Hey…" Kent cried out while hurriedly getting up from Amelia's side.

Sophia, who came running, began panting with heavy breathing. While standing before Kent, she spoke in a stuttering tone.

"What? What are you saying? I didn't get a single word." Kent replied annoyingly.

"My… My father contacted me." Sophia paused, taking a long inhale. "He said the documents for property transfer are ready and invited you to treat my brother immediately." Sophia replied with a wide smile.

Kent didn't feel any excitement like Sophia anticipated. He felt more annoyed after hearing what Sophia said. "Did you disturb my sleep for this nonsense?" Kent asked while rubbing his eyes.

"What nonsense…? Isn't it big news? I never thought my father would agree to your condition. But he seemed very happy to transfer the business under my name. Isn't it a miracle?" Sophia asked with a surprised look.

"Tch… If your father had so much love for you, he would have agreed to my condition right away. It seems your father has prepared a plan and is inviting us to play his tactics. Go and get ready. I also have small work in capital." Kent replied while yawning loudly.
