Chapter 413 A Dead Man Can't Talk
Lisa wanted to keep it a secret from her mother, but her body couldn't resist the drug addiction
withdrawal when it attacked again. She suddenly felt dizzy, and her eyes blurred. Her whole body
began to have a slight convulsion. She was well aware that these were the symptoms of her need for
drugs.
Lisa shook her head heavily to sober up, but it didn't work. Her consciousness was drifting away. The
pain inside her body was becoming stronger, tormenting her so much. She wondered what she should
do now.
"My dear, are you okay? Are you feeling sick?" May Shen asked worriedly when she noticed the
unusual look on Lisa's face.
"No, no, I'm okay. Nothing serious, Mother. I have a little stomachache. I need to go to the toilet now. I
will come back to talk to you later. Just wait for me here!" said Lisa.
Fortunately for Lisa, she had already taken a dose of drug with her before she went there.
As long as she could go to the toilet and have the injection again, she would be fine.
"Are you sure that you are all right? Your face is so pale, " May asked her again with concern. She
didn't think that a simple stomachache could make her daughter's face look as pale as this. Moreover,
May noticed that Lisa was slightly trembling.
It seemed as if she was suffering from an epileptic attack.
A sudden thought came across May's mind. 'Adam Huo, that scumbag! Has he injected any drugs on
Lisa?'
May had seen some drugs at Adam's place before. She also knew that Adam had been engaged in the
drug dealing business. He was a drug trafficker.
With that on her mind, May got worried, and she silently followed Lisa to the toilet. As soon as Lisa
reached the toilet, she couldn't bear it any more and took out an empty syringe and a bottle of drug.
When she saw what was happening in front of her, May couldn't help but burst into tears. She was
right. Lisa was indeed addicted to drugs. What's worse was that she was taking drugs through an
injection, which would cause severe harm to her body. It was purified heroin. Once she absorbed the
highly addictive heroin into her body, it would be difficult for her to get rid of it. Adam was so cruel-
hearted to her daughter!
The injection of drug might also cause a lot of other diseases to Lisa.
May wouldn't let Lisa do it again. How could she be so stupid to take drugs? One false step might
cause everlasting grief. May wasn't sure if there was still a chance for her to help her daughter out. But
Lisa was her beloved daughter. May really hoped that she could stop her from taking drugs.
"Lisa, stop it. That's a drug!"
May said as she pushed the door open.
Lisa had already injected herself the drug, and she felt much better after doing it. She was waiting for
the drug to be absorbed by her body before she would go out to see May. Lisa didn't expect that her
mother would suddenly enter the toilet cubicle. Upon seeing May, Lisa dropped her mouth open with
shock, as if a kid's bad mischief was discovered by her mother all of a sudden. But what she was doing
right now was not a simple naughty act; it was a crime!
"Mother, why did you follow me?" asked Lisa bewilderedly.
"Was it Adam Huo who had injected you with drugs?" May asked, with her tears pouring down her face.
Lisa initially didn't want to bother May with it, but since her mother had seen it with her own eyes, Lisa
couldn't keep it a secret from her mother anymore. She had no choice but to nod her head and answer,
"Yes."
"How could he do that to you!" May helplessly shook her head. She then went on to say, "Stop taking
these drugs. They will only make you more addicted to them. Lisa, you must find ways to destroy your
drug habits. Otherwise, your life will be ruined by it."
Lisa cried and asked, "Mother, it's so difficult to stop doing it once I started. How can I get rid of the
addiction? What should I do to save my life? Mother, you know what? Adam is a cruel demon! He has
done a lot of vicious things to me, and he even forced me to take drugs! He wants to push me to the
brink of death!"
May took a deep breath and held Lisa up from the floor. She said with guilt, "Lisa, I am sorry. It's my Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
fault. I trusted the wrong person."
"Mother, I have an idea. I am under Adam's control because he has a lot of blackmailing material
against me. He threatens me with them, so I couldn't dare escape from him. I have to listen to his
orders. But I am in love with his elder brother, Robert Huo... I want to live together with Robert my
entire life, so..."
May's eyes glimmered with suspicion as she heard her daughter's talking, and she cut in to ask, "Does
Robert also love you?"
Lisa was surprised by her mother's question, but she managed to lie with a nod.
"Are you sure that he really loves you, Lisa Xia? Or does he actually love Linda Xia?"
May was a smart woman. Lisa had the same appearance as Linda now, so she had to ask this in detail.
"Maybe he loves Linda Xia... But mother, I really love him very much, and I want to live with him. If
Adam is dead, no one would be able to threaten me anymore. Robert has promised me that he will quit
his business here and migrate abroad with me. If we settle down abroad, no one will know that I am the
fake Linda, " said Lisa.
"It's about your lifelong happiness. Have you considered it thoroughly? Do you really want to do it this
way? If Robert finds out that you are not the real Linda Xia one day, your relationship with him may
suffer."
May felt sympathetic toward Lisa. Long ago, Lisa loved Charles very much. But when she thought she
could marry to Charles, Linda showed up all of a sudden, crushing Lisa's fantasies. Now, Lisa was in
love with another man, but that man only loved her because she had the same face as Linda. May felt
so distressed at the thought of it.
She wondered what wrong deeds she had done in her previous life for her to be punished by the god in
her present life. She also couldn't understand why Linda was the bane of her existence.
However, Linda didn't do anything directly to her. May just blamed all her misfortune on Linda. She
always assumed that Linda deliberately hurt her and took possession of everything in her life, which
was why she was in such a bad situation now.
But May thought her revenge on Linda was less urgent at the moment. It was more important for her to
root out Adam. Sometimes, when May was alone in her jail cell, she would recall the exciting and tense
days when she had an affair with Adam. She had actually missed him.
Those days, as a middle-aged woman, May had a strong desire for sex. But Johnson Xia wasn't able to
satisfy her desire, and Adam came into her life by coincidence. Adam could satisfy her in every aspect.
He could easily trigger her thrill with the help of all kinds of sex products. May completely fell for Adam
and was willing to be his mistress. She was even willing to address him as "Master", but of course, she
only said it in bed for the purpose of spicing things up and increasing the excitement between them.
Johnson Xia was a very traditional man, so he had sex with her in a very conservative way.
May never felt excited to do it with Johnson. If a woman had an affair with another man, it probably was
either for the reason that her husband couldn't satisfy her desire, or for the reason that her husband
treated her badly. Johnson had always treated May very well, so obviously, May had an affair because
of her dissatisfied lust.
"Mother, only a dead man can't talk, " Lisa said as she looked at May with a determined look in her
eyes.
