Chapter 722
Her hand trembled as she pulled a plastic-wrapped substance from her pocket, hesitating.
A cold voice spoke from behind her. "You don't have much tleft anyway. Think about your mother in the
hospital. You can't earn enough money for her treatment while you're alive, but after you're dead, someone will
take care of her."
The woman turned around shakily, her face pale as she looked at the woman behind her. "Will you really do what
you promised?"
"Why wouldn't we? Don't forget who you're dealing with. She never breaks her word, and this small amount of
money means nothing to her." The woman behind her said mockingly.
Finally, the thin woman swallowed hard and opened the plastic bag, sprinkling its contents evenly over the steak.
She carefully placed the napkin around her collar and forced a smile.
She had never eaten such fine Western food before. This steak was worth thousands. Who would have thought
she'd enjoy such a meal before dying?
She picked up her phone again and looked at a photo of herself with her mother. Closing her eyes, she
whispered, "Dad, I'm coming."
She set down her phone, poured the wine, and took a small sip.
Taking up the knife and fork, she cut a small piece and put it in her mouth. She spent nearly an hour on this
meal.

The woman behind her showed no impatience, watching quietly.
Until, at last, the woman ate the final piece of drug-laced steak.
In the end, she collapsed onto the table with a smile, the knife and fork falling to the floor with a sharp clatter.
The woman behind her shuddered. With fear in her eyes, she slowly approached and checked for breath beneath
the woman's nose.
"Ah!"
She fell back onto the floor, her face drained of color. Quickly noticing the plastic bag, she grabbed it and flushed
it down the toilet.
When finished, her face was covered in fine beads of sweat.
She didn't bother wiping them away but walked toward the door instead.
The next moment, she threw the door open and let out a piercing scream that echoed down the hallway.
"Help! Is anyone there? Help!"
Her voice was loud and penetrating. Hotel staff appeared immediately, hurrying over to her. "Miss, what
happened?"
"She, she..." She pointed back at the person slumped over the table, her face pale with fright and tears
streaming down her cheeks. "Please save her!"
Several staff members rushed in. The manager checked the woman's pulse, and within minutes, he stopped
someone who was about to move her. "Don't touch her!"
He sensed something was wrong. Moving the body now would destroy the scene. With a grave expression, he
took out his phone and called both an ambulance and the police, while instructing someone to notify Sarah.
