Chapter 751 Beat You Until You Focus on Her
Zephyr returned to the dining table, and they continued eating.
During this time, Jane received a call from the bureau.
"Dr. Smith, Dr. Wright, thank you for the lunch. I have some matters to attend to at the department, so I have to leave first."
Nora didn't insist. "Alright, see you next time."
"Bye, enjoy your meal," Jane said.
Watching Jane's heroic figure, Nora sincerely commented, "She's so cool."
Zephyr glanced at Jane's figure, said nothing, and elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth with two napkins.
Nora turned her head back, thought of something, and added, "Jane not only has a handsome side but also a beautiful side. Dr. Wright, you haven't seen her with long hair and wearing a dress. She looks really beautiful, more beautiful than she is now!"
She was silly; she shouldn't have said Jane was cool.
She should have said she was beautiful!
That way, she could help Jane leave a good impression on Zephyr.
Zephyr glanced at Nora. "When did you see her with long hair and wearing a dress?"
"I saw it with my own eyes last night!" Nora said, "Last night, she had a task at the Hilton, but she didn't tell me what task she was on. But she really looked gorgeous. I regret not taking a picture of her at that time."
So Nora was also at the Hilton last night.
Indeed, Jane last night looked like a completely different person when dressed up.
Thinking of Jane's charming appearance and her excessive behavior last night, Zephyr felt a bit hot inexplicably.
He coughed lightly as a cover. "That's why they say clothes make the man."
Nora smiled. "Yes, Dr. Wright, think about it; Jane is really nice."
Zephyr smiled. "Dr. Smith, are you starting to play matchmaker now? You are promoting so hard."
Nora said, "Dr. Wright, I'm considering for you. You probably don't want to be forced by your father to go on blind dates all the time."
Zephyr remained silent.
Nora paused, her expression becoming more serious. "Dr. Wright, you're a good man. The best way to forget about one relationship is to move on; I sincerely hope you can find happiness."
Stop thinking about someone who was not meant to be with you.
Start a new relationship!
Zephyr's smile faded a bit.
"But if you enter into a new relationship while still having feelings for someone else, that's also unfair to the other person."
Nora rested her chin on her hands, looking thoughtful. "I don't think that's a problem."
"Why?" Zephyr asked.
"Because if you really end up with Jane, if you hesitate, she will definitely beat you until you focus on her!" Nora replied.
Zephyr was speechless.
In Zephyr's mind, a scene from a cartoon inexplicably appeared where Jane beat him with a broom.
Zephyr found it somewhat amusing and frustrating.
"Dr. Smith, are you truly suited for the role of a matchmaker?"
Who dared to marry a violent girl?
Zephyr was not a masochist.
"No, I'm sincerely introducing you to a handsome and beautiful female officer," Nora said.
"Thank you, I'll go pay!" Zephyr stood up with a smile, clearly not wanting to say more.
Nora also got up. "Dr. Wright, shall I treat you today?"
Zephyr joked, "No need; being a matchmaker is quite a tough job for you."
Nora blinked. "But it didn't work out."
Zephyr replied, "I still appreciate your efforts."
Nora was speechless. Zephyr and she seemed to understand each other well!
The two exchanged a few words, and Zephyr went to pay the bill.
After leaving, they went their separate ways.
Zephyr got into his car, hands on the steering wheel, staring into the void for a while.
Thinking about Nora's words, he hesitated for a moment, picked up his phone, and found Jane's number that he had just added.
'Should I give it a try with her? Why not? Just give it a shot.'
'But what if Jane rejected me?'
'After all, Jane and I were originally unrelated.'
'That would be embarrassing.'
'Forget it!'
Zephyr ultimately abandoned the idea, tossed his phone aside, and drove away.
Nora returned to Whispering Pines Manor and went straight to the underground lab to continue developing the antidote for Joseph.
Although the antidote was difficult to develop, Nora's dedicated research paid off. Five days later, she had preliminarily developed a drug that could suppress the toxicity in Joseph's body.
With further treatment, she believed she could completely eliminate the toxins from Joseph's body soon.
Nora was delighted; she put the developed pills in a small bottle and then had Frederick take her to Richard's apartment.
At that moment, Joseph had just had an outburst. The apartment was a mess as if a battle had taken place.
Evella was tightly hugging Joseph, not letting him move. Richard's arm was scratched, blood dripping steadily.
Howard had a clear blood mark on his face, his chest rising and falling as he stared fixedly at Evella, hugging Joseph.
Unexpectedly, it was a hug that calmed Joseph's inner turmoil in the end!
And it was Evella's hug.
It was glaringly obvious.
Howard stepped forward. "Evella, step aside and get the medicine."
Without hesitation, he pulled Evella away and took over, hugging Joseph.
Evella was stunned for a moment, not questioning why Howard did that, and quickly complied, running to Joseph's room to get the medicine.
Joseph's inner turmoil had initially subsided.
Howard suddenly pulled Evella away, his breathing becoming rapid again.
Sensing that Joseph was about to have another outburst, Howard quickly held him tight. "Joseph, don't be choosy; you should be grateful that I'm willing to hug you."
In fact, what Howard wanted to say was, don't take advantage of my girlfriend.
But he didn't want things to get awkward between them, so he chose a different wording.
"Let go of me!" Joseph's eyes turned red, roaring.
"I won't!" Howard held him even tighter.
Joseph's eyes flashed with a strong sense of anger, and he leaned down and bit Howard's shoulder.
Howard winced in pain. "Joseph, don't be disgusting; what are you doing? Leaving marks on me? Are you interested in me? Don't tell me you are gay!"
Joseph loosened his grip, shouting, "What did you say? Say it again?"
"Joseph, calm down." Richard quickly stepped forward.
At that moment, Evella brought out the bottle of medicine. "Joseph, please take the medicine."
"I won't!" Joseph shouted.
"Please, Joseph, take the medicine!"
Evella pleaded with Joseph with a look of desperation.
Howard, unable to bear it, said to her, "Evella, listen to me; when I count to three, you shove the medicine into his mouth."
"Okay."
"One, two, three!"
Howard bit down on Joseph's shoulder.
