Chapter 1359: Chapter 1358: First Attempt at Drugging and Stealing the Key

...

At midnight, a shadowy figure slipped into Arthur Easton’s room.

"Who?"

The man on the bed opened his bright, clear eyes and looked at the intruder, it was...

Before he could say the rest of the words, he lay motionless. Just as he was speaking, Arthur had sprayed the drug, yet he was prepared and wore a protective mask.

"Eldest Brother, I’m sorry, I know you’re doing this for my sake, but keeping someone locked in the basement isn’t right, is it?"

As he spoke, he reached for the man’s waist, unfastening the basement keys and taking them away.

After he left, the man lying in bed moved his slender fingers and the next second, he opened his eyes to look at the pitch-black ceiling.

Arthur, what audacity!

How dare he attack him like this...

But strangely, the image of Eva Nightingale flashed in his mind. Her stubbornness always infuriated him, yet he hadn’t executed her.

He got up and silently lit a cigarette.

...

At the basement entrance.

Several bodyguards stepped forward: "Second Young Master, you mustn’t go down, the Eldest Young Master has ordered that no one can go without his permission. Besides, the basement keys are with the Eldest Young Master!"

"Hmm?" Arthur Easton’s face didn’t look good as he took out a bunch of keys, "Look, the keys are here with me. My brother sent me."

He was the rightful Second Young Master of the family!

When did he have to look at the bodyguards’ expressions just to go to the basement!

"Alright... alright then. Please, Second Young Master!" Seeing the keys, the bodyguards dared not stop him any further and could only let Arthur Easton go down since the keys were in his hands, presumably really ordered by the Eldest Young Master.

On ordinary days, the Eldest Young Master treated the Second Young Master very well. This time, when the Second Young Master was injured, it made him furiously angry.

It wasn’t that the Eldest Young Master didn’t allow him to go to the basement, it was just because his serious injuries hadn’t healed, and he was still bandaged. Going to such a dark, damp, and bacteria-laden place was really not conducive to recovery.

Originally thinking that getting to the basement could rescue that woman and let her out, who knew there would be no sign of her in the basement?

When Arthur Easton came out, his face changed drastically, not to mention how awful he felt!

"Second Young Master..."

"Where is she?"

"Second Young Master, that woman was taken away by the Eldest Young Master’s people before or after dinner, but the exact arrangements of where she went are unknown."

Arthur Easton: "..."

Damn it, all for nothing.

His mood was extremely bad, and he even offended his elder brother. Just thinking about it made him upset.

"Second Young Master... you should go rest early!" Within the family, everyone knew the Second Young Master was a warm-hearted man, with unparalleled beauty, and a good personality. Many girls liked him, even men couldn’t help but like him.

Even though the Eldest Young Master was more beautiful, no one liked his cold and cruel demeanor...

Now, the Second Young Master has come looking for this woman repeatedly, is it possible there’s something between him and that woman?

Could it be that in the bar before, the Second Young Master had already favored her?

The bodyguards’ thoughts wandered far, only seeing Arthur Easton had already left.

...

When he snuck back into the room, he paused, puzzled!!!

Why was there a smell of smoke in the room?

However, seeing the handsome man remained unmoved, he dismissed the thought. The drug was very potent, and his brother couldn’t possibly be awake.

Therefore, he was just overthinking!

Putting the keys back, Arthur Easton walked out, and the unmoved man secretly opened his eyes...
