Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1000

"You..." Hank didn't expect that to happen after he gave in. He was furious and he glared at Fade. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Are you kidding us?" Stephen shouted, "I am a public servant of Micovia. If something happens to me in Jade City, do you know what grave consequences it will cause?" Fade acted as if he had been wronged and said, "Mr. Stephen, I don't want that to happen either. It's just that I can't do anything about your conditions." Feeling the pain in his body increase, Stephen didn't want to argue with Fade. He asked, "What's wrong with us?"

"You guys are poisoned," Fade said.

Upon hearing this, Hank suddenly burst out, "You said you didn't poison us. Why are you now..."

"Mr. Hank, I said you are poisoned, but it doesn't mean that I'm the one who poisoned you. You have to understand the difference. It seems that you are having problems with comprehension," Fade said. Stephen questioned with a gloomy face, "How did we get poisoned?"

Fade opened the door, pointed to the dining table in the living room and said, "Well, from the food you just ate."

"You mean, the seafood we just ate is poisoned," Hank said, then shook his head. "No way. I imported the seafood from Micovia so it's impossible for it to be poisoned. You're being absurd," he said. Fade waved his hand and said, "I don't know if the seafood from Micovia is poisonous or not, but your symptoms are very similar to that of the patients of the seafood poisoning incident in Jade City." While speaking, Fade turned on the TV.

On the news channel, the seafood poisoning incident was being reported on. In the news, the description of the patients' symptoms was the same as Hank's and Stephen's. Seeing the news, their faces fell.

Stephen panicked and said, "If we had seafood poisoning, you should be able to treat us. Didn't you say that you've cured some of the patients?" Fade said in a regretful tone, "Mr. Stephen, I did cure some of the patients, but it's a pity that 1 can't determine the composition of the toxin in the other patients. Thus, I am still unable to treat them. Unfortunately, you two are a part of these patients."

"How could that be?" Stephen panicked.

Hank seemed to have realized something. After a pause, he said, "Fade, you're lying to us. You're telling us this because you want me to give you the chemical formula. I see through your intentions. You'd better just give up, I won't tell you the chemical formula."

Fade sighed and said, "You're right, Mr. Hank, I do want to know the medicine's chemical formula. Only when I know the chemical formula can I figure out the composition of the toxin, and come up with a cure for the patients. That, of course, includes you two."

"But, if Mr. Hank insists, then there is nothing I can do," Fade said as he spread out his arms and looked at Stephen.

Stephen looked very ill.

Hank argued, "Mr. Stephen, he's lying to us. Don't be fooled by him. This is a five-star hotel. We couldn't have possibly eaten poisonous seafood."

"Besides, even if we're really poisoned, as long as we return to Micovia, we will be cured."

"Really? Then, I wish you both luck on going back to Micovia as soon as possible," Fade shrugged and was ready to leave.

Hank didn't speak. At that moment, Stephen felt

another spasm of pain. He couldn't bear the intense pain. He felt as if his internal organs were twisted together and the agony was indescribable.

Then, Fade turned around and said, "Oh, I forgot to remind you. Generally, patients poisoned by this special toxin can last a week with my medicine. Without my medicine, I'm afraid they'll survive for two days at most."

"This..." Hearing that, Stephen's face turned sullen.

Fade continued, "However, two days should be enough for you guys to fly back to Micovia for treatment."

"Of course, that is if someone finds you in time. Furthermore, whether the flight will worsen your conditions or not, I can't predict the probability of that. Well, I can only wish you two luck," Fade said as he smiled at the two and was ready to leave.

Hank's face darkened and he fell into silence.

As for Stephen, he was in a dilemma.

Fade, who had walked to the door, opened it and said, "You each have a beauty by your side. It seems that you are going to have a good time. You shouldn't be disturbed by outsiders. I'll help you lock the door."

"By the way, the soundproofing in this room is excellent. No matter how loudly you two enjoy your time, you won't be heard by others."

After that, Fade was about to leave. Just before the door closed, he seemed to have thought of something else. He added, "I forgot something. The router and signal tower near Earlington Royal Hotel is currently under maintenance. Phones and cell phones can't be used for a while. If you want to call someone, please wait for half a day."

"Bye-bye, I hope you two have a good time," Fade said and waved to them as he closed the door.

Finally, Stephen couldn't bear it anymore. He shouted loudly, "Don't leave, Mr. Chen. Don't leave. Save us. We will give you what you want."

Fade, who was about to close the door, smiled. He stopped, turned around to look at Stephen, and said, "Is that true, Mr. Stephen? To treat both of you, I'll need the medicine's chemical formula. Though, Mr. Hank just said that he didn't want to..."

Stephen hurriedly looked at Hank and said, "Hank, hurry up and tell him the formula. Quick."

"Mr. Stephen, this, this..." Hank hesitated, unwilling to comply.

Stephen was really anxious. He shouted, "Hank, if you keep hesitating, we'll both die here."

As a member of the Micovian Embassy, he was unwilling to lose his life for the sake of Hank's so-called business secret.

Hank was put into a tight spot. He said, "Mr. Stephen, what he said may not be true. It's very unlikely that we were poisoned by the seafood, he..."

"I don't care whether it's true or not. I don't want to lose my life here," Stephen was enraged and bellowed, "Hank, if I die here because of your reluctance, do you know what consequences Bald Eagle Pharma will suffer?"
