"Vajra, the moment I left, you started plotting how to retaliate against me, didn't you?"
As soon as the call was made, Edmund's cold laughter came through, "Now, you must be enjoying yourself, aren't you?"
"Mr. Dawson, please save me. I shouldn't have harboured bad intentions. I really won't dare to do it again in the future."
Upon hearing this, Vajra immediately knew that his sudden headache was a tactic employed by Edmund.
"Vajra, if I had spared you so easily before, you definitely wouldn't have behaved. Enjoy tonight, and come find me tomorrow. You need to understand one thing, for every wrong action, there's a price to pay. Moreover, you better ensure Brandy is well-protected. Any slight disturbance must be reported to me immediately. If anything happens to my sister, your life won't be enough to compensate."
Edmund hung up the phone right after.
Vajra, being a figure from the underworld, knew that in front of such people, one cannot hesitate or drag their feet. They must be subdued instantly, making them feel fear deep within their souls to avoid endless troubles later.
At this moment, Edmund was not far from Vajra's villa, having just gotten into a taxi.
He called Brandy, who had already returned home. Hence, he decided to go see her.
When he got home, Brandy had bought a watermelon. She cut it and was waiting for him.
"Edmund, I found a summer job. It's a part-time accounting position at an electronics factory, two hundred dollars a month. Aside from weekends, I'll be staying in the factory. There's still over thirty days left of summer break, so I can earn some living expenses."
Brandy was very excited.
Today, she was dressed in white clothes and a white skirt. After her nephritis was cured, her skin became much whiter, making her look very pure.
She wasn't the type of girl who dazzles at first glance, but rather the type who become more enchanting the more you look at her. Besides, she also had a good personality.
"Brandy, you don't have to worry about living expenses anymore. I'll give you two thousand dollars. Keep one thousand dollars for your tuition and the rest for your living expenses. Feel free to buy clothes and food."
After eating a piece of watermelon, Edmund took out his phone and directly transferred two thousand dollars to Brandy.
Two thousand dollars wasn't a lot for him now, but it was quite a sum for Brandy.
"Edmund, where did you get so much money? Did the Conner family give it to you?" Brandy was somewhat surprised.
"I earned it myself. You should be very clear about my medical skills by now. It's not hard to make money."
Edmund said, "Mom has passed away, Dad has disappeared, and over these years, I didn't take good care of you. I even ended up in prison, making you worry. From now on, I won't let you suffer the slightest grievance."
"Edmund, don't say that. You've always taken good care of me diligently. Without your hard work to earn money for my education, I wouldn't have been able to attend university. I will remember everything you've done for me for the rest of my life." Brandy said emotionally.
"Brandy, we've finally come through the hard times." Edmund said, "You don't need to go to the electronics factory anymore. If you need money, just tell me. I'm not short on money now."
"Edmund, going to the electronics factory is also a kind of internship and social experience. I still want to take this summer job to train myself."
Brandy thought for a moment.
Edmund's imprisonment had made her much more independent. Indeed, a child from a poor family becomes the head of the household early.
"Brother supports your decision." Edmund smiled, feeling that his sister had grown up.
That afternoon, the siblings had a great time chatting.
Brandy also bought a lot of groceries, wanting Edmund to stay for dinner before leaving.
After Edmund sent a message to Merlot, he naturally stayed.
"Edmund, when will you take me to meet your wife?" Around 8 p.m., when Edmund was preparing to return to the Conner family, Brandy couldn't help but ask.
"Wait until I cure your sister-in-law's illness. It's not appropriate to go now," Edmund thought for a moment and said.
"Edmund, haven't the people of the Conner family bullied you?" Brandy was somewhat worried.
"Brandy, in prison, there are experts from all walks of life. This year, what I've learned is not only unparalleled medical skills but also martial arts and various strange techniques. It's already good enough that I don't bully others." Edmund said with a smile.
Brandy then felt a bit relieved. She sent Edmund downstairs, waiting until Edmund walked out of the alley and hailed a taxi before she returned to her room.
As Edmund was taking a taxi and almost back to the Conner family, he suddenly received a call.
The call was from " Jade Lady of Medicine" Sauterne.
"What do you want?" Edmund answered the call, indifferently said.
"Mr. Dawson, I've spent the entire afternoon reflecting, and I felt that I should apologize to you. I've been too arrogant and insulted you multiple times, which I shouldn't have. After discussing with my grandfather, we bought a detached villa in Heavenhill City. The villa is fully furnished, and I have already moved in. Do you want to come over tonight? I'm already prepared to be your maid. When you take a bath, I... I can scrub your back. By then, this villa is yours, I... I am also yours..."
Sauterne's voice, unexpectedly was no longer cold but carried tenderness and charm, and a hint of bashfulness.
This was unprecedented!
But Edmund, from this tenderness and charm, heard a bit of reluctance. Although Sauterne hid this emotion very well, he could still feel it.
After all, Sauterne was not a woman who would be gentle in front of a man because she was naturally exuberance and had excessive liver fire, making it difficult for her to do so!
"Sauterne, I like your current attitude."
Edmund pretended not to hear anything and immediately said with a smile, "However, I'm busy tonight. Some other day when I'm free, I'll come to enjoy this big villa and your super service!"
"Please reconsider, how about tonight? This beautiful night should not be wasted. I have prepared for you for a long time." But Sauterne actually persisted.
"Stop it, follow the master's arrangement, and wait obediently. If you're bored, you can practice how to be a maid first. I think, you're quite lacking in this aspect."
Edmund laughed, then hung up the phone.
He was very clear that Sauterne must have listened to that old fox, Dr. Jensen, to take the initiative in front of him, and then let him treat her.
Once he cured Sauterne, this woman would definitely betray him.
However, he still respected Dr. Jensen, the old man, because although Heavenhill City is just a second-tier city in the Land of the Dragon, a villa also starts from hundred thousand dollars, which is not a small investment.
Not long after hanging up, someone added Edmund's WhatsApp.
The request message was, I am your exclusive maid!
Edmund laughed, knowing it was Sauterne who added him, and immediately accepted the request.
He wanted to see what tricks Sauterne would play to get him to treat her.
As soon as the friend request was accepted, Sauterne immediately sent Edmund quite a few provocative pictures.
This "Jade Lady of Medicine" was wearing a semi-transparent maid outfit, kneeling on the ground, holding a rag, posing in various seductive positions, cleaning the floor in a hall. Her gaze was captivating, and her figure was exquisite.
This imagery, just thinking about it could make one's blood boil.
"Mr. Dawson, is my posture professional?"
"Do you want me to change into a few more outfits and take some more provocative photos for you?"
"Do you like me in black stockings?"
"If you come tonight, I'll wait for you no matter how late it is. My grandfather is staying in a hotel, and I'm living alone in this big villa. I am so lonely and scared. I really wish someone could accompany me..."
After the photo bombardment, Sauterne also bombarded him with messages.
These messages and photos alike, were tantalizing.
