CEO Broke Down and Cried After I Divorced Him novel Chapter 760

"Mentor, I’m not blaming you. I just need you to know—if it’s not you helping me, I’d rather let my body give out completely. That’s why I’m staying."

"That’s nonsense!" Suzy couldn’t hold back her temper any longer.

"Elliot, why do you always have to be so stubborn? This isn’t about forcing me; it’s about you not valuing your own life.

"Can’t you see there’s more to your life than me? Stop wasting time and come with me. I’ll find a way to help you detoxify the poison. I promise."

"There’s no need—"

Before Elliot could finish, the woman trapped in his hold interrupted.

"If you don’t want to leave, then stay. If she won’t help you with the poison, I will."

The woman leaned in and, right in front of Suzy, pressed her lips to Elliot’s.

But before the kiss could linger, Elliot shoved her away with a forceful "Get lost."

The woman smirked and raised an eyebrow. "We’re both women. What difference does it make? Just pretend I’m Suzy."

Her smile turned coy as she added, "But since you’re not interested, I won’t meddle anymore. Let’s call it a day. I’ll come back to play with you all some other time!"

With that, she pulled a packet of white powder from her pocket and flung it at them.

"Cover your mouths!" Suzy shouted, her voice cutting through the chaos.

Everyone quickly obeyed, giving the woman just enough time to escape.

When the dust settled, Suzy realized the white powder wasn’t poison but simple flour.

Furious, she dashed after the woman, only to find herself too late.

Outside, the path was split into three directions, and there was no telling which one the woman took.

It was clear the woman had planned her escape meticulously.

Holding the antidote, she went to find Elliot, only to discover his room was empty.

Panicking, she rushed to find Allen and ran into him just as he was coming inside.

"Where’s Elliot?" Suzy asked, her tone sharp. "Didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on him? Why is he gone again?"

"I don’t know!" Allen looked equally baffled.

"He said he was hungry and asked me to get him something to eat, so I went…"

"Why didn’t you have one of the staff do it?" Suzy’s brow furrowed deeply.

"It’s just like what happened at the hospital! And now this? Allen, can’t you even keep track of one person?"

Allen looked aggrieved. "I thought, since we’re at home, nothing would happen. How was I supposed to know…

"That brat! He must’ve sent me away on purpose. What is he up to now?"
