"That's right, it's a disease of lies."
"It could also be said that this is an incurable disease, a disease that causes genetic lesions, a rash at first, and then my poor Abigail starts peeling... She is now skinny.
Kassandra, who thought of her daughter, instantly changed from a strong woman to a person who felt sorry for her daughter, her tone was a little sad, and tears could not stop flowing out.
"And then?"
"Then there would be high fever, muscle atrophy, coma, and finally death... Few patients make it past the age of ten, and Abigail ... There is still half a year to go.
Mercury's voice trembled and choked a little when he said this.
Lance spread his hands and said a little helplessly: "Sorry Ms. Kassandra, my business skills do not include the option of curing, this is a blind spot of mine.
"No, no, no..." Kassandra shook her head repeatedly.
"I have never given up on Abigail's treatment for more than a year, and the hard work pays off, and I got a news."
"In the Himalayas, a flower called the 'nightmare flower' grows, which cures patients of lies."
"Plus Stark praised you, so... I hope you can help me find a flower like this. After
hearing Kassandra's description, Lance fell into self-doubt, and Tony Stark praised him. There was no such possibility, and he felt that this thing was unreliable.
Himalayas?
It's no ordinary place....
How can there be such a flower here, and it can cure the disease of lies, this is also too nonsense, right?
Lance, who thought about it, felt that Cassandra had no reason to lie to him, after all, there was no conflict of interest between them, could it be that she was coaxed by whom?
"With all due respect Ms. Kassandra, I think you may have misunderstood... There are a lot of charlatans in this world who like... Yes, it's swagger.
"I also don't think the kind of herb you mentioned exists, so I'm sorry, I can't promise you, thank you for the hospitality." Lance very simply refused, then got up and planned to leave the place.
When Kassandra saw Lance get up, she quickly took Lance's arm and said hurriedly: "No, Mr. Lance, this matter is true, I have a record to prove it."
Lance stopped, then turned to look at her.
Kassandra pulled a tablet out of the drawer under the coffee table and clicked on a video.
It seems that she was prepared.
Lance took the tablet and looked at it, the video time was not long, only about ten seconds.
Inside, two people were struggling to move forward in the snow, and in front of them was a pure black flower with white patterns.
Just when the two heavily armed people were overjoyed, a sudden avalanche came, and the two-person team was buried in the vast snow, and the picture became a snowflake screen.
"It's this herb, it's true!" Kassandra's tone was very affirmative.
"Is this really a nightmare flower?" Lance looked at her suspiciously, then at the flower on the screen.
It's very good-looking, I haven't seen it myself.
"Yes, this is the same as what I've seen in the literature, and this flower does grow in the ice and snow."
Kassandra nodded vigorously, indicating that she was definitely not lying.
Lance, who sat down again, frowned and stared at the flower carefully, and after a moment raised his head and said: "Ms. Cassandra, I will try my best to help you find this nightmare flower, if I successfully treat your daughter, I don't need the so-called half of the property, only fifty million dollars, after taxes, and I need to pay half of the deposit first." "
As for half of the property, Lance didn't even think about it, if he didn't find the flowers, forget it, what if he really found it and successfully cured Abigail, and by that time she turned her face and didn't recognize people?
Kaos has to see blood again, not the whole point of the knife is practical, and he can laugh at Stark.
And lo and behold, you don't have a flower worth anything yet.
"No problem!" As expected, Kassandra agreed without hesitation.
Lance stood up and shook her: "Good cooperation."
"Happy cooperation!"
Kassandra also stretched out her right hand and clasped it tightly with Lance.
Lance then walked out of the office, and Slater would send him the specific information.
"Boss, can he really do it?" Slater looked worried, apparently he didn't have much faith in Lance.
Kassandra shook her head: "I don't know, but fifty million, I can still afford it, the previous dozen groups of mercenaries were all destroyed, and now there is no other good way, I can only trust him once, no matter what the result is, we have to try again."
Hearing Cassandra's words, Slater sighed helplessly, knowing that his boss's decision would not change.
Lance, who returned to the casino, was not in the mood to play at this time, and took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Jacqueline, wanting to ask her if she had heard of such a thing as a nightmare flower.
After sending it successfully, Lance looked at the message that Slater had sent him, about the flower and the disease of the lie.
But there is not much content, and it seems that it is only a few hundred words and a picture. It seems that you still have to go to the Himalayas to see if there are any nightmare flowers in that mountain range.
Closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Lance set his gaze on Lorna's enchanting figure not far away, and his brain, which had been thinking about business, began to think about right and wrong again.
It wasn't until after ten o'clock in the evening that Max and Lorna were tired of playing and planned to go back to rest.
After the two returned to their room, Lance carried Tom back to his room and asked if his special potion could cure the condition.
Lance, who didn't have much hope, got the same answer as he thought, that is, no. Similarly, Tom didn't know what this nightmare flower was.
One person and one cat discussed how to deal with this matter.
The result of the discussion was to leave Max and Lorna at the Mercury Casino in Las Vegas, with Tom and Cassandra taking care of them without worrying about any mess.
It's not too late to go back to New York when they want to, but then Lance will have to go to the Himalayas herself.
Lance, who decided everything, slipped into Lorna's room again under Tom's disgusted eyes.
Tom, who had nothing to do, felt that he should also go for a romantic encounter, so he simply opened the window and jumped out, not caring that the location he was in was a twenty-story building.
