Chapter 1117 - 1119: Played for a Fool

A few bodyguards left the room and closed the door behind them.

"Deliberately sending my bodyguards away, what are you two planning to do?" Florence Knight completely disregarded them.

She’s part of the mafia, why would she be afraid of them? She even carries a gun at all times.

"What can we do to you? Anything we do would just dirty our hands," Melody Thorne snorted, stepping towards the sofa where Florence Knight was sitting. Once she was a table’s distance away, she suddenly lunged at Florence Knight.

No matter how fast Florence Knight’s reactions were, she couldn’t evade Melody Thorne jumping down onto her from above!

Chloe Summers quickly cooperated with Melody Thorne, grabbing Florence Knight’s legs.

"What are you doing? What are you two women doing? Get away, get away from me!" Florence Knight screamed, and the three bodyguards who had just left immediately came back in, pulling Melody Thorne and Chloe Summers away.

"Madwoman!" Florence Knight sneered.

"Yes, we’re madwomen. We can’t compare with scum like you. Let’s go," Chloe Summers said, pulling Melody Thorne outside.

Florence Knight watched the two leave, realizing she had been played. Her expression turned darker. These two women were utterly childish. She tried to stand but found she couldn’t move her body.

Her arm that had been pinned down by Melody Thorne was now turning a dark shade, her expression suddenly grim.

"Miss, you’re poisoned," one of the bodyguards said from behind,

Her arm that had been pinned down by Melody Thorne was now turning a dark shade, her expression suddenly grim.

"Miss, you’re poisoned, I’ll go capture those eight women and bring them back!"

"Idiot!" Florence Knight said, "Doesn’t Knight Palace Gate have any kind of medicine? Bringing them back for an antidote? Quickly, take me back!"

"Yes."

A bodyguard had just picked Florence Knight up when her phone rang, she received a text message.

[Florence Knight, what I just injected you with is a newly developed drug with no antidote. You better not appear in front of me and Jared Quinn for a while, or I can’t guarantee your arm won’t start rotting!]

"That wretch!" Florence Knight shouted, angrily throwing her phone away.

Trying to stop her from associating with Jared Quinn by drugging her? Childish!

The drugs inside her body can be neutralized without Knight Palace Gate’s help!

"Send a message to Jared Quinn, tell him Knight Palace Gate is willing to hand over the antidote within the next few days, but I want Jared Quinn to spend a night with me!"

"Yes."

Melody Thorne returned to the Quinn Family, not having drunk much, but was already a bit tipsy. She opened the bedroom door but didn’t find Jared Quinn, and then went to the study.

Jared Quinn had a stack of documents to handle in front of him, Melody Thorne nestled in the sofa, resting her chin, watching him.

"You drank?" Jared Quinn put down the files in his hands, walked over, wrapped his long arms around her waist, and spread her legs to let her sit on his lap.

"Just a little," Melody Thorne truthfully replied.

"I should’ve known not to wean you off so long ago, you’d have shown restraint if Little Cherri was around."

"Didn’t you drink too?" Melody Thorne snorted, slightly drunk, saying whatever she wanted.
