---- Chapter 2691 Andrew immediately said, "It''s just a guess, so it might not be urate. I noticed the first day I arrived at the Advanced Medical Institute that Mika was already meeting Lennox in secret, and she was clearly using him. She just didn''t say what she wanted yet." He added, "Come on, we''re going to Bluewater Cliff right now, because there''s a good chance they''re plotting there again tonight." Eric nodded quickly. "Follow me.
I know exactly where Bluewater Cliff is." A few minutester, the two of them slipped silently through the moonlit forest and reached the deep valley behind the Advanced Medical Institute. A beautiful spring flowed from the mountains and rushed down steep slopes until it formed a fast-moving stream. Above the rushing waters, a natural stone arch bridge rose over a massive drop into a bottomless-looking gorge. This ce was Bluewater Cliff. Andrew and Eric circled around to higher ground and looked down.
Sure enough, they spotted two figures standing on the arch bridge at that very moment: Lennox and Mika ---- Lennox spoke with deep affection. "Mika, after tomorrow, you''ll be my wife, right?" Mika responded shyly, "Oh, stop it, Lennox. I don''t want to talk about that right now. You did promise me you''d do onest thing for me." Lennox replied eagerly, "Tell me, please, just tell me already. Whatever it is, I can make it happen." Mika pouted, looking absolutely adorable. "Okay, but you said it. Tomorrow, my father is going to help the Grand Elder seize the director''s position.
With the Grand Elder''s current Martial Emperor strength, killing Koda will definitely be a piece of cake. After that, he''ll be the director of the Advanced Medical Institute, the real person in charge." Lennox said proudly, "That''s right. My father is about to be the director of the Advanced Medical Institute. And the next director after him will be me. Mika, as my wife, you''ll enjoy the highest status and honor imaginable." Mika looked pitiful and vulnerable. "But that''s not what I want to see.
Lennox, you probably don''t know this yet, but our family has helped the Grand Elder tremendously. But today, when they were negotiating terms, the Grand Elder refused to meet my father''s conditions. Honestly, it really hurt my feelings." ---- Lennox frowned. "Seriously? As far as I know, my father has been very amodating to Mr. Owens Senior." Mika forced a smile. "That''s just what you see on the surface. I only found out by ident when I overheard them talking... They were even arguing. Lennox, I can marry you, but first and foremost, I''m a member of the Owens family.
I can''t let our family give so much and get nothing in return." Lennox immediately reassured her, "Mika, don''t worry. I''ll convince my father to give the Owens family 100 times the benefits and rewards." Mika shook her head. "You''d better not say anything. If you do, the Grand Elder will get angry. And if he gets angry, he''ll know I''m the one whispering things to you behind his back. I don''t want him thinking I''m maniptive or scheming." Lennox panicked and soothed her quickly. "Okay, I won''t say anything. I won''t mention a word.
Then, tell me what I''m supposed to do." Andrew and Eric, both locked in on Mika''s performance, leaned in with sharp concentration. Finally, the maniptive bitch was about to reveal her real motive. Mika tugged Lennox''s cor and spoke in a soft, sweet voice. "Lennox, after everything seeds tomorrow, I need you to help ---- the Grand Elder... take a nap for a while. That way, my dad can get what he deserves, and everything will turn out perfectly." Lennox blinked in confusion. "Make my dad take a nap? You mean... drug him?"<style>
