Chapter 450 It’s Time to Get May out of Prison
Lisa couldn't stay in constant touch with Vincent for the past several months because she had gone to
Maldives with Robert and she needed to be discreet about things.
Although she had contacted Vincent a few times while she was away, she avoided called Vincent as
possible as she could.
Vincent, too, had called her occasionally to tell Lisa about what had been happening to him. He didn't
want to arouse other people's suspicions.
Despite her evil scheme, Lisa had the greatest time in her life during the past three months when she
was in Maldives with Robert.
"Vincent, how are you doing? Are you feeling any pain right now?" Lisa herself had undergone plastic
surgery, so she knew of the complications that might follow and could put one in so much pain. But as
long as Vincent could get through this, he would soon be fine.
Lisa would never know why Adam hadn't gotten her a better hospital for her surgery. To save herself
from all the worries, she had chosen a reputable one for Vincent, better than where she had her
surgery done.
"No, I am feeling okay. My body didn't reject the surgery. But I'm worried about you. You don't look so
good. What happened? Is there anything wrong?"
They didn't have much time to talk with each other except whenever she went out to buy groceries
alone during her vacation, so she was pretty anxious.
"I'm all right. Vincent, I have to ask you for a favor. Did you know that Adam made me use drugs? I
have to quit my drug addiction, or else I couldn't be able to bear his child..."
Lisa was referring to Robert, of course. She wanted to have his child so badly, yet she dared not to do
so, for she was still battling her drug addiction. Although, she had been trying very hard to fight it. Now,
she was forcing herself to only have four doses each week, but it had been more than difficult for her.
The child she would bore would definitely develop diseases and abnormalities if she got pregnant
under such a poor condition. If that were to happen, she would literally be thrown into a pit of darkness
and guilt. That was not what she had wanted. She wanted to give him a healthy and chubby child who
could inherit the legacy of the Huo's clan in the future.
She could never go back to the Xia clan, not in this lifetime, so the Huo clan was her only salvation.
"Drug rehabilitation can be pretty strenuous. Are you sure you want to do that? It's hard… really hard…
Adam, that son of bitch... How could he make you use drugs? It could have cost you your life. Didn't he
know that?"
Lisa nodded her head and said, "He was indeed an unforgivable bastard. Otherwise, I wouldn't have
consented to kill him and replace him with you. I would not have done that if he had treated me with Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
even just a little kindness."
After hearing Lisa's words, Vincent registered a tinge of evil look on his face.
If only he had known these things earlier, or had an inkling of her sufferings, he would have sliced
Adam into pieces sooner, all by himself and at all costs.
But everything was fine now. Adam was dead for good. His death had solved all of Lisa's problems;
she would never go through that torture again.
"Lisa, you have to know that drug withdrawal is a really difficult thing to go through. Be honest with me.
How deep are you into doing drugs?"
"Not much at the moment… I have been trying very hard to suppress my addiction..."
"Okay, it would be easier, I guess. I know someone in the rehabilitation center. I will ask them to send
you a therapist to help you. How about that? If you're not too addicted to drugs, I think two months
should suffice. After quitting drug use, you must stay away from these things, or you might have a
relapse…"
Vincent told her earnestly.
"I will, Vincent. It was not my intention to use drugs in the first place. Adam had forced me to, so I had
no choice. I am in a pickle now. I don't want Robert to find out that I am a drug user, but I live with him
and I was worrying that someday he would find out about it. I haven't told him the truth. I am very
cautious about injecting drugs whenever he's around. I only do it when he is asleep…"
Sadness began to swell in her heart at the thought of her sufferings.
"All right, let's get started tomorrow. We've got this. For the past few days, I have looked into every
asset of the Huo clan, big or small. I have also checked out Adam's former room, and I found a secret
passage that leads directly outside the house. For the next two months, I will send Robert to the
company to handle business-related affairs for at least two hours each day. During that time, you could
get out through that passage and go to see the therapist I will arrange for you. Don't worry. I will find a
place for him to stay nearby."
Lisa was overwhelmed by a plethora of emotions. She looked into Vincent's eyes as if she had
something to say, but she made no sound. Upon noticing, Vincent told her in a reassuring tone, "It's
okay, I am your brother. You can tell me whatever you want to say."
"Vincent, what if I can't get rid of my drug addiction in two months? I am desperate for a child with
Robert. What's more, I am going to leave China with Robert, and we would move to America or the UK
in two months. We might never come back in the next ten or even twenty years…"
"Lisa, I understand why you're worried. Are you afraid that Linda might find out about you now that she
is back? It's all right, Lisa. I will think of a way to get rid of her. Just bear with it for some time. Once I
succeed in killing her, you could return back home, free of any fears."
Lisa had only heard about the news that the real Linda was back, but she never had the opportunity to
confirm it with her own eyes. After all, she had personally seen the moment when the real Linda was
kidnapped. Since then, she had pretended to be Linda. But now, she was actually shocked that the real
Linda had survived the abduction. It was truly a miracle in Lisa's eyes, for she had thought that the
chance of survival for Linda was literally none.
Yes, it was indeed a miracle that Linda had returned safe and sound. But she wondered why Linda
hadn't taken any action against her, yet. Maybe Linda didn't know that Lisa had stolen her identity?
Lisa considered herself very lucky. Linda didn't like Robert, so she wouldn't contact him. Robert had
always thought that Lisa was the real Linda the whole time, so he was doing everything to make her
happy without paying attention to the outside world. Plus, he had been dragged by Lisa to Maldives,
and they had stayed there for the past three months. While abroad, it was difficult for him to keep up
with what was going on in China.
"Vincent, if you could get rid of Linda, please do so, or else…" Lisa said after reflecting for a while.
"I will, " answered Vincent.
"I have another favor to ask. Our mother has been in prison for the past six months. I am worried about
her. Can you find a way to get her out of there?"
