Chapter 41 Michaels head buzzed as he felt his blood pressure spike.
He could not believe Andrew, whom he deemed a loser, was asking for such an outrageous amount.
While Rhodes Corporation was rich, 15 million dollars was not pocket change.
Fine, Ill give you the 15 million, Michael agreed unexpectedly.
But remember if I find out that you breathed a word of this to Lauren, youll be dead.
After that, Michael rushed back to his office and wrote a massive check, his heart bleeding at all those zeros.

Rhodes, youre so generous.
I swear on my life I wont tell Ms.

May all the poisons in the world strike me if I break this yow! As Andrew left grinning with the check, Michael sneered.
Idiot, youre playing a game you cant win.

Mr.
Garner, its Michael.
I need your men to take care of someone.
I know your prices are steep, but moneys no object.
Im offering 3 million dollars, flat rate.
Hanging up, he smirked and muttered, You thought you could keep my 15 million that easily? I just needed to keep you quiet.
Once Mr.
Garners men finish the job, that money will be right back in my pocket.
Meanwhile, Andrew had no intention of keeping his end of the deal.
He immediately went to Lauren and said, Ms.
Rhodes, this check belongs to you.
Lauren was dumbfounded.
A check from Rhodes Corporation? Dr.
Lloyd, where did you get this? Andrew chuckled and explained everything that had happened with Michael, including his suspicions about the poisoning plot.
That bastard! Im going to kill him! Lauren fumed, shocked that her own family could be behind such a scheme.

Ms.
Rhodes, confronting him now would be useless without concrete.

If I were you, Id wait and watch until we have proof to send him to prison.

Im fine.
I even made a vow to stay silent, or all the poisons in the world strike me.
Lauren gasped.
What? Dr.
Lloyd, how could you do that? I swear, if anything happens to you.
because of that bastard, Ill make sure he suffers hundredfold! Francesca frowned at Laurens fierce protectiveness.
She turned to Andrew and scolded, As a medical professional, you should know better than to make such reckless vows.
Andrew replied dismissively, Honestly, Im not worried.
Theres no poison I cant cure.
Both women suddenly realized Andrew had cleverly tricked Michael.
Nonetheless, that did not stop Francesca from mocking him.
She scoffed and said, Yeah, right.

He could make such oaths all day long because his extraordinary medical skills truly made him immune to any poison.
