Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1071

The compliments made Sasha giggle and proceeded to speak in a breathy tone, "You're a smooth talker, aren't you? I really like that about you. Come on then, let's see what else you've got. I'm sure you have much more to offer than that."

Not a moment later, the sound of clothes being rummaged and discarded filled the house.

Just as they were about to get down to business, Fade was already standing outside the door. He was filled with anger at that moment, his eyes looked as if they were capable of shooting flames. He kicked the door open with no hesitation.

With a loud bang, the hardwood door flew open, breaking upon impact. The deafening sound startled the couple in the room, making them turn their heads towards the commotion.

At this moment, the flustered young man hugged the half-dressed Sasha to him to secure her modesty. He looked up and shouted with rage, "Who are you? Get the hell out!"

Fade's face was devoid of all emotions. He merely ignored the man's demands, stepping into the office as he intended.

At this moment, Sasha, who had been lying on the desk, raised her head out of curiosity to take a look at the intruder.

When she saw who it was, her nonchalant expression immediately morphed into one of panic as she hurriedly stammered, "Mr. Chen! What are you doing here? I..."

Fade glared at Sasha and answered coldly, "If I hadn't been here, I wouldn't have found out that you were planning to go back on your words."

As soon as he said that, Sasha's face fell. This meant that he had already heard what she said just now. Rendered speechless by fright, she eventually started to stammer out, "I, I'm... That's..."

On the other hand, the young man who had been getting frisky with Sasha had no idea what was going on. He went ahead and shouted at Fade, "You b*stard! How dare you speak to her like that! Get out of here! Otherwise, I'll have you kill..."

Before he could even finish his sentence, Fade had stretched his hand out and made a grab for the other man's throat.

It felt like an invisible force had commanded the young man into Fade's grip as he was lifted up by his throat.

As he started to suffocate from the lack of air, he began to panic and choked out in a flurry, "You... Let go! Let go of me!"

Fade ignored the man's struggle, tightening his grip instead, pinching him until he passed out. It was only until then that he decided to let him go, tossing the unconscious body out of the office like a rag doll. Sasha trembled with fright at the scene before her. She took a few involuntary steps back from Fade as she tried to explain, "Mr. Chen, this is all a huge misunderstanding, I..."

Before she could start explaining herself, she was startled into silence by Fade's heavy palm hitting her desk. The force of it left a clear five-finger palm print on it.

Fade spared Sasha a fierce glare and stated in a chilly tone, "I don't care for what explanations you have. All I want is the Fire Blame Plant."

"Hand it over to me right now or bear the consequences."

Fade's ferocity scared the living daylights out of her. She tried to explain as she trembled in fear, "Mr. Chen, please understand. Whatever you heard just now... I was just joking, I was fooling around!" "Don't worry, we'll definitely have the Fire Blame Plant delivered to you as soon as possible. I promise!" She insisted.

"No, that's not good enough. I want it now. Take me to the Li family's house immediately, I'll come with you to get it," Fade answered.

Sasha turned ghastly pale, a look of embarrassment slowly overcoming her features as she said, "Mr. Chen, that would be impossible." "Why not?!" Fade questioned, tone menacing.

Sasha spared a quick glance at Fade's sullen expression and quickly supplied, "It's because the Fire Blame Plant is still in Earlington. It hasn't been shipped back here yet so there's literally no way for us to get it right now."

"I don't believe you!" Fade spat.

"Mr. Chen, please believe me! I'm telling the truth! The Fire Blame Plant really hasn't been shipped yet. Moreover, there are still two days left from the seven days stipulated in the contract. Trust me, we'll definitely have the plant delivered to you within the agreed deadline."

Fade's eyes gleamed a little as he muttered coldly, "Then what did you mean just now?"

Sasha stiffened at that. Her resolve crumbled once she made eye contact with Fade's fiery gaze. Hurriedly, she tried to assuage the situation, "Dr. Chen, you need not worry about that. I was just bragging, please don't take anything to heart, it was all just a joke."

"The Fire Blame Plant is worth 20 billion. Even to my family, that's a lot of money. To be honest, I felt a bit reluctant to give it up so yes, I'll admit that I did think about reneging the debt."

"But even so, my grandfather has told me that I can't ruin the reputation of the family because of that. He has criticized my way of thinking before... Please, I was just bragging a little just now, it was all lies..." "Really?" Fade retorted, looking at Sasha solemnly.

Sasha nodded fervently and even got on her knees before him, "Mr. Chen, what I said is all true. I haven't lied to you at all! My father's doing his best to get the Fire Blame Plant here as soon as possible. Everything has been arranged accordingly."

"I have proof as well! There are some relevant documents and videos I can show you," Sasha hurriedly got back on her feet and dug out a stack of documents and videos as she spoke, showing them to him. Fade looked through them. It seemed like she was telling the truth.

After a long silence, Fade eventually spoke up, "You have two more days. Once your time is up, have the Fire Blame Plant delivered to me immediately." "Otherwise, your family will bear the consequences." Sasha couldn't help a shiver as she listened to Fade's words. She felt an unrelenting chill up her spine, causing her whole body to tremble. The fear he evoked was so prominent that it felt as if it were embedded into her bones.

Satisfied that he had rendered Sasha a trembling mess, Fade turned and left the office.

Watching Fade's retreating back, Sasha felt her body finally relax as she slumped to the ground in a cold sweat.

She hurriedly got up from the ground and took out her phone. She dialled her father's number with shaking fingers, "Dad, something horrible just happened. Fade came by the hospital just now and I..." After returning from The Li's Hospital, Fade felt a little uneasy, as if something was off.

Immediately, he called Director Xu and asked him to help track the Li family's movements so as to avoid any unprecedented accidents.

Two days would pass them by soon enough.

At the moment, it was the last evening of the deadline as agreed in the contract.

Fade had heard from Director Xu that the Li family had indeed flown a special plane back from Earlington to Jade City. It arrived that afternoon.

It was also reported that Sasha and Martin from the Li family were up to their normal daily routines. It didn't seem like they had anything suspicious planned as well.
