After leaving the hospital, Janet immediately called Bernie and Fiona. But neither of them answered, She had no choice but to go to the Lind family’s house again. "Are you insane? Why are you constantly ringing the doorbell?”. Minutes later, the maid opened the door and yawned. She seemed annoyed that Janet had disturbed her sleep. "Let me in! I’m looking for Bernie and Fiona!". "The entire family is on a vacation to the Maldives. They’re not at home. "When will they come back?" Janet asked anxiously. Fiona said she didn’t have the money to pay the agreed money. How could they go on vacation to the Maldives?. "I don't know. Go ask them!" The maid slammed the door. Janet stared at the door and kicked it. Her body trembled with rage. "You lying bastards! All of you will rot in hell!". The Lind family had gone to the Maldives. Regardless of whether it was true or not, Janet couldn’t get in touch with them. She had to think of a way to pay Hannah's. medical bills. Perhaps God had sensed that Janet needed money. As soon as Janet opened her browser, she saw an advertisement about a hospital looking for volunteers for clinical trials to. come up with tumor drugs. They were paying the subjects a thousand dollars for staying in the hospital for a few days and trying out the medicines

In case the drug had repercussions on the subject's body, they would get about ten to forty thousand dollars as compensation, . depending on the seriousness of the problem. It seemed like th e perfect opportunity for Janet. She was young and healthy. Even if the medicines had any side effects, they wo uldn’t harm her that much. Janet went to the hospital, filled out the r egistration form, and went straight to get a physical examination. She planned to try the . medicine s the ne xt week. Delicious smell of food w afted in the air as soon a s Ethan entered the house. "Why did you come back e arly today?" . Janet cast a sidelong glanc e at him and continued to to ss the spaghetti in the pan. The apron acce ntuated her al luring figure. One could grasp her slender wais t with one hand. Her curvy bum bobbed as she moved around. The bowtie on her back seemed to tease Ethan — as if hinting at him to open i t and peek at the tempting gift inside. Ethan's eyes dark ened as he felt h ot in his throat. He unbuttoned his collar and went to the fridge to get a bottle of water. "I was off duty earlier today,” he said after gulping down the water He looked a t her floral apron and tugged at the hem. "Is this an apron? I t’s pink. It can’t eve n cover your thighs. It was more like a sex y lingerie. "Stop pulling my apron. I got it at a discou nt. Pink is a beautiful color, is it not? Ta ke the spaghetti to the table

I'll make some . sa la d. Janet glared at him and continued to cut t he vegetables without uttering a word Etha n grinned and put the spaghetti bowl on the . dini ng t able. Several design sk etches were scatt ered on the table. Just as Ethan sorted the papers an d was about to keep them aside, a piece of paper fell from his hands. I was the physical examination report Eth an looked at it and felt something was wro ng. He couldn't understand why there was a . nico tine test. Janet put the salad on the table and realize d that Ethan didn’t seem to be interested in the food tonight "You don't like the food?" . "No, I was t hinking abou t something. The fork in Ethan's hand s ulled, he turned lo look at her met his piercing gaze. "What's it?’ sh e asked. "Have you voluntee r to do drug trials ?" he asked coldly. Janet’s hand trembled, and her fork fell. She didn’t know why she was flu stered, but she tried to remain calm. “Yes. The hospital conducts regular trials like these. Moreover, the trial is legal. Do n’t look at me as if I have done something . hor rif ic. Ethan put down his f ork, pursed his lips , and looked at her. "Don't go. Don’t you know t hat the drug trial could c ause serious side effects?"
