After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 671 Who Did It

Chloe had always been wary of taking medication in public. With the internet being what it is, she dreaded the thought of being caught on camera while taking her meds. She would find herself trending on social media.

In the cramped bathroom, Chloe finally pulled out the medication from her bag. She swallowed one pill before handing the bottle to Candy.

Candy eyed the bottle with a puzzled look. "What's this for?"

Chloe sighed and handed over the packaging and instructions she hadn't had a chance to discard.

Candy read through it with growing disbelief until she reached a particular line.

Her eyes widened, nearly making her fumble the bottle.

"Chloe, you..."

She thought, "How can this be? How can she actually be infected with HIV?"

Chloe took the bottle back. "Now you know why I've been so adamant about keeping you away. I didn't want you to get infected." Candy's mind was racing, barely able to process the news.

"No, no, wait. That medication you took-it's for post-exposure prophylaxis, right? So you're not confirmed positive yet, right?"

Chloe nodded. "Yes, I need to take it for twenty-eight days, then we'll see."

Candy's relief was palpable. "That's a relief! You're going to be fine. Don't freak yourself out. Just keep taking the meds, and we'll get checked again in twenty-eight days. Everything will be okay..." Seeing Candy's frantic but supportive demeanor, Chloe felt a pang of guilt.

"I'm sorry. I didn't want to burden you with this. I was trying to protect you from worrying."

"What are you talking about? You can't keep something like this from me!"

Though Candy was clearly shaken and unsure how best to comforte Chloe, her biggest concern was Chloe's secrecy. She looked at Chloe with determination as they left the bathroom.

"Who did this?" Candy demanded.

There was no way Chloe could have contracted this disease by herself. Someone had to be behind it.

"William's brother," Chloe replied.

Candy's anger was palpable.

"Again, it's him! I'm going to have Wesley track him down immediately. If Wesley can't find him, I'll get Quinn and Jessica on it."

Chloe quickly interrupted, "No, please. I don't want Jessica and the others to know."

There were already too many people aware of the situation. Since Jessica and Quinn were currently in the home country, it was better not to involve them.

"I just need a location, and I won't tell them what happened."

Meanwhile, James and Michael had arrived at a remote villa on the outskirts of town.

The area was desolate, with no one around.

The villa was the only building for miles, making it easy to dispose of someone without anyone noticing.

They approached the door and rang the bell, Aman in a suit and

sunglasses answered. Seeing.

Michael, he opened the door with a

respectful nod. "Mr. Shawn."

The interior of the villa was surprisingly bright, a stark contrast to the typical dark and menacing atmosphere of a kidnapping scenario.

On the first floor of the villa, there

was only a single sofa. In front of the

sofa stood a wooden chair, and on

that chair was a man with a black hood over his head, bound and helpless. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Michael and James took their seats and gave a subtle nod, signaling to the bodyguards to remove the hood.

As the bag was pulled away, the man squinted against the harsh light, his eyes struggling to adjust.

Once his vision cleared, he recognized Michael and James sitting across from him.

In that instant, he knew exactly why he had been kidnapped.
