NovelEnglishChapter 525
If Yolanda hadn't pried open the red coral bead bracelet before his eyes, he might have believed that Edna didn't
know anything, based on how innocent she looked.
Vic's birthday was coming up. No matter if he had gotten this bracelet for himself or as a gift for Vic, they would
still fall victim to this five-million-dollar bracelet.
Yolanda mentioned that this poison was slow-acting. If either of them were poisoned six months down the road,
they would have no way of finding out who did it to them. It was practically a way to kill someone off without a
trace.
Edna was the manager of an antique shop and also the troop leader who helped others resell illegal artifacts. If
she claimed that she couldn't tell if something was wrong with the bracelet, Knox wouldn't believe her at all.
Knox felt that Edna had deliberately placed the bracelet in a place where it would easily catch his attention, and
then she strongly recommended him to buy it to achieve her purpose of poisoning him.
"Mr. Knox, you—" Edna widened her eyes, feigning an innocent look that was contradictory to her "girl boss"
image.
She clearly knew what she was doing since she also thought that a lot of men would fall for it.

care at all.
"I'll give you one last chance, Edna Moorley. Spit it out, or I'll expose you to the world. The aftereffects of that
wouldn't just be a destroyed shop."
Edna resumed her haughtiness once she realized it didn't work for her to feign innocence. A silver of solemness
slipped onto her face at the stime.
"If you have something to say, just say it directly, Mr. Knox."
"Since you | don't know what's good for you, sure. I'll fulfill your wishes."
Knox took out a napkin with the red coral bead bracelet in it and slammed it onto the counter.
"Look at this!"
"Oh? The string that holds the bracelet is broken." Edna breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled.
"And here | was wondering what had happened. I'll just restring them for you then
"Open your fucking eyes and look carefully!"
Knox pointed at the red coral bead that Yolanda had pried open and pointed at the remnants of the powder
inside.
"This " Edna's face changed immediately. Coldness emanated from her eyes. "What do you have to say for
yourself? I'm a frequent customer here, Edna. Every t| need to give a gift to my elders, I'll pick out a few
antiques here.
"I've spent hundreds of millions here and this is how you repay me? I've gotten the powder examined. This is a
poison that has no smell or taste.
"Anyone who would wear this bracelet long term would start to have corroded organs in about six months. I've
spent five million dollars to put a ticking tbomb on myself. You're so despicable, Edna!"
A cold gleam flashed in Knox's eyes. He had had his way in Riverdale for so many years only to fall victim to the
puny manager of an antique shop.
If it wasn't for Yolanda, he would have stupidly fallen into the trap. How could he live this down?
"You have to givean explanation today. Who sent you to harm me?" Knox's words shocked the other
customers.
How much courage must Edna have to do such a thing?
How did she even find the courage to harm someone from the Seinfield family in Riverdale?
She just sold him something that could kill him for five million dollars. The audacity!
Edna hesitated for a moment before she forced a smile. "Mr. Knox, | wouldn't dare
to harm you even if you let"
"How dare you still try to weasel your way out?"
