Relentless Pursuit After Divorce
Chapter 1682: 1682. What did he take from her?
Chapter 1682: 1682. What did he take from her?
At that time, the secretaries in the Jones’ Secretary Department were shocked when they saw that she didn’t know the whereabouts of their grand CEO.
Probably thinking their clingy president, who likes to inform his wife wherever he goes, went on a business trip abroad this time, and the lady didn’t know.
Recalling the surprised expressions of the secretaries, Elly Campbell’s heart ached with bitterness.
Yes, her island owner was so good, pampered her, loved her, yet she made him so sad.
Leo Hall looked at her expression and roughly guessed something, smiling somewhat schadenfreudely, “Did you have a quarrel?”
His voice brought Elly Campbell’s thoughts back, she coldly glanced at him, and said:
“It’s none of your business.”
She wasn’t in the mood to discuss her issues with Adam Jones with Leo Hall, instead, she got straight to the point and said:
“I’ve agreed to your terms, whatever you want me to do, I’ll do it, as long as you can develop the medicine for Helen.”
Leo Hall let out a few delighted chuckles, “No problem.”
“Alright, can you now tell me why you want me to stay by your side?”
Leo Hall scooped a small piece of chocolate cake with a spoon, put it into his mouth, chewed a few times, then leaned forward to Elly Campbell, with a faint chocolate aroma still lingering as he said something wild: “To have kids with you.”
Elly Campbell’s sharp gaze swept across coldly, making Leo Hall immediately sit back down in his seat.
He took another bite of chocolate cake, showing no intention of hiding anything from Elly Campbell, and said:
“The other day I had Chloe Turner take something from you, guess what it was?”
Elly Campbell was stunned for a moment. That day she suspected Chloe Turner had done something to her, and later she just thought it was some unknown poison placed on her.
Could she have taken something else from her?
She looked at Leo Hall with suspicion. Based on what Leo Hall said earlier, her face suddenly changed.
Could it be…
Her face instantly darkened, and she looked at Leo Hall.
Leo Hall’s smile became even wider in his eyes, speaking of his misdeeds while delighting in eating a cake only girls usually favor.
“You guessed it right, it’s your egg…”
After saying this, he looked as if he tasted some earthly delicacy, his eyes narrowed with satisfaction.
Elly Campbell’s face darkened, just as she was about to curse, but then she calmed down.
The process of egg retrieval is painful and complex, how could Chloe Turner possibly retrieve eggs just in the short time spent in the Diagnosis and Treatment Room, without her even feeling anything afterward.
If Chloe Turner indeed had such skills, she would definitely be an object of competition in top world-class obstetrics and gynecology departments.
Leo Hall seemed to understand the thoughts playing in her mind, letting out a few low chuckles, with a hint of slight pride.
“Today’s egg retrieval technology certainly won’t do, but that’s others, can the stuff from me, Leo Hall, be the same as theirs?”
He had spent a few months researching medicine that could allow women’s eggs to be automatically separated and extracted, with a simple, convenient, and low-risk process, more importantly, with minimal harm to women, and no pain throughout the procedure.
He proudly and unreservedly told Elly Campbell the whole matter.
After listening, Elly Campbell was dazed for a long time, unable to describe her feelings.
Given that Leo Hall could develop drugs to counter pneumonia viruses in such a short time, and create medicines undetectable by top-tier medical detection equipment worldwide, she had no doubt of his technical prowess.
