Janet and Draco boarded the plane and settled down in their seats.
After putting their luggage away in the overhead compartment, Draco turned to Janet. "Do you want something to drink?"
Janet had been talking with Brandon before boarding the plane. They had spoken for a long time, so her throat was indeed a little dry. "Yes, please. Orange juice would be good. Thank you, Mr. Wesley."
As the two of them fell into a conversation, they didn't notice the man sitting behind them. He was wearing a baseball cap, which he pressed down to cover his face. A strange, unsettling smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
It was none other than Jorge!
Two days ago.
Jorge was resting on the bed, knowing there was no hope for his broken leg at all. He was damned to be a cripple for the rest of his miserable days. Only two faces filled his mind when he heard the prognosis. His hatred for Brandon and Janet consumed him, keeping him awake.
As he lay down, seething in anguish and fury, a message came from a mysterious man. He was the same person that saved Jorge before.
The man told him that Janet and her boss, Draco would be on a business trip to Northcliffe. He told Jorge to tail them.
The man had even sent a vial of poison to Jorge. Once Jorge got on the plane, he should find an opening to inject it into Janet.
The poison was extracted from a viper, and it was slow-acting. The symptoms would almost be the same as being bitten by the snake; the only difference was that the toxin took effect slowly. By the time it would be detected, the person's organs would have already failed.
It would be a slow, excruciating death.
Once the plane took off, there would be no professional medical staff or access to equipment. There would be no way to save Janet in time.
