Chapter 70
With a sharp snap, Tyrone slapped Quintessa’s hand away.
“What are you touching for? You scared of catching something?”
Quintessa, rolling her eyes, pulled out a syringe from her pocket and handed it to Tyrone: “Get going.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
Tyrone paused, “What’s this?”
He knew all too well that the syringe was meant for Matthew, but whatever was inside was definitely no candy.
Quintessa shot him a look: “That’s none of your business. It’s not lethal, let’s just say he won’t be waking up anytime soon.”
Matthew was a linchpin for the Young family, so his downfall would be a devastating blow.
Her vendetta started with Matthew. Now that she had set the wheels in motion, there was no turning back.
Tyrone saw the icy coldness in Quintessa’s eyes, devoid of any emotion or any warmth.
He pulled her into his embrace: “Dragging me down with you?”
Both were masked, with only eyes revealing, and they saw the reflection of each other. Quintessa suddenly smiled, wrapping her arms around Tyrone’s neck: “What else did you expect? You in?”
Tyrone’s slender fingers toyed with the syringe, “If I do it, what’s in it for me tonight?”
Quintessa raised an eyebrow: “How about I keep you company in bed?”
Tyrone suddenly leaned in, kissing Quintessa’s lips through the mask, as if he could feel the burning heat.
He let go of her: “Deal.”
Quintessa watched Tyrone injecting the liquid into Matthew’s arm. A sinister smile grew in her eyes.
Tyrone pulled out the needle: “There, now I’m an accomplice to… whatever this is. Are you satisfied now?”
Quintessa leaned in towards Matthew: “Dear brother, farewell! May you sleep forever.”
Tyrone frowned, grabbed Quintessa’s arm, and dragged her out.
“We’ve done the deed, and it’s time to make a run for it. You’ve never been one for subtlety. Without me, you’d
have been behind bars long ago.”
Quintessa snickered.
Clashing with him was exactly why she always got caught.
They reached the exit. Hearing the nurse’s footsteps. Tyrone pulled Quintessa into an adjacent room to hide.
Once the nurse passed, they slipped out.
After dodging their way to the staff room, they found it empty, so they quickly changed back into their own
clothes.
Leaving the hospital, Quintessa glanced at Tyrone: “You seem pretty adept at this. Not your first rodeo, huh?”
Tyrone drove with one hand, while holding Quintessa’s with the other: “Yep, and I can get even worse. Wanna try?”
“If you’re looking to dig your own grave, I won’t stop you.”
Quintessa had no more reservations about Tyrone. Reporting him, threatening him, what for? He was an

accomplice now, what did she have to fear?
As dawn broke, they arrived at Tyrone’s private house. Once indoor, he couldn’t wait to devour this seductive
siren.
He couldn’t believe he’d help a woman with such a deed!
Quintessa blocked Tyrone’s kiss with her hand, and gave him a radiant smile: “I said I’d stay the night, but look, it’s already morning. No more staying now, huh?”
