Chapter 323
Chapter 323 Did He Come Out Unscathed?
Taking a deep breath, Kate slowly suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
George looked at Kate, hesitant to speak. After a while, he finally said, “Madam, did Boss… come out unscathed?”
Kate thought of Eric’s cold demeanour towards Erica and shook her head.
Not only did he come out unscathed, but he also gave Erica a hard time.
He was truly worthy of being her husband.
As she was thinking about this, Edward hurriedly walked in from outside, carrying a laptop. With a serious expression, he said, “There’s new information on the dark web.”
“What information?”
Kate and George immediately crowded over.
Edward placed the laptop on the coffee table and then opened a webpage. “The dark web says that Saltoban has offered a high price and is looking for someone with exceptional medical skills.”
It was still a webpage on the dark web, but it was completely different from the page Y used to contact Herbert. Edward found this page after cracking the dark web’s code to post messages.
The page displayed numerous messages, including international ones, assassination contracts, information exchanges, and so on.
In
any case, the dark web was a place for shady underground transactions.
Kate looked at the dark web page, feeling that familiar sensation rising within her again.
Suppressing that familiar feeling, she asked with some confusion, “What does Saltoban want with someone highly skilled in medicine?”
Edward scrolled and said casually, “It seems like it’s for treating Eric’s leg.”
Kate remained silent.
She froze on the spot, unsure of what to say next.
She had initially thought that Eric might be suffering at their hands, perhaps just receiving treatment to keep him alive. Still, she hadn’t expected the involvement of someone like Erica.
Although Erica had set her sights on Eric and even desired to conquer him, which concerned her deeply, she couldn’t deny that Erica treated Eric quite well. Erica was even willing to pay a high price on the dark web to seek treatment for Eric’s leg.

However, Edward remained silent momentarily and then shook his head with a bitter expression. “I don’t know anyone like that.”
Kate sighed softly, her mind involuntarily drifting back to memories from her past life….
True, if Eric had someone highly skilled in medicine by his side, how could his arm have been affected by illness in her past life?
As they continued the chatter, that message flickered momentarily and disappeared without a
trace.
“How did it disappear?”
Kate asked instinctively.
Edward’s eyes darkened. “Someone took it down.”
They exchanged a glance and quickly stood up, both looking towards the direction of the neighbouring villa.
Since someone had already taken the contract, they would likely arrive at Erica’s villa to treat Eric’s leg.
At this moment, inside the pavilion by the lake.
Eric sat impassively in his wheelchair inside the pavilion by the lake. Despite his inability to stand, his weak body, and his pale complexion, the cold aura of authority that emanated from him made it clear he was not to be underestimated.
Erica sat opposite Eric, smiling in an attempt to please him. ‘Eric, would you like something to eat? Try this steak. It’s delicious and tender!”
As she spoke, raising her fork to step forward, Eric shot her a cold glare. Erica instantly halted in her tracks, sweat breaking out on her back.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes showing a hint of resentment but, more prominently, excitement.
This man fit my tastes perfectly. Just a look, a gesture, could ignite my greatest desire to conquer him!
I’m determined to conquer him!
