"Okay!" Dina let out a deep chuckle. "If you want to save him, you can do it yourself! I don't want to be involved in any of this."
Nora frowned and stayed silent for a moment. She didn't want to give up yet but swept a determined gaze at Dina, trying her best to persuade the latter. "Dina Li, you must know what kind of place Jingshi City is. Without power, you can do nothing in such a dark city. I left Jingshi City long ago. I used to have connections in the past, but now, it's useless. I can't ask them for help anymore."
Dina snorted. "So what does it have to do with me?" When Nora stayed silent for a long time, Dina cast a disdainful glance at the girl and could feel her blood rising due to anger. Nora thought she could use Dina just as a puppet any time. She was wrong. Dina wasn't going to fall in her trap easily. Dina's lips curled in disgust, and she decided to raise her voice at the girl. "Let me tell you, Nora Mo, don't think that we are in the same boat because I cooperated with you in F Country. I am not under Darren's control in Jingshi City, and I won't work for him anymore!"
"But can you really escape?" Nora retorted and gazed at Dina with her cold eyes. It momentarily stunned Dina, who was standing frozen after she heard Nora's words. At one point, Nora was so angry that her face went red. She continued to stare at Dina with her cold eyes. Dina had been speaking nonsense without even giving Nora a chance to explain herself. Nora just couldn't stand it anymore! Before Dina could open her mouth, Nora interrupted her. "Darren Xu is not only a devil, but also a killer who can take your life any time!"
"What do you mean?"
Dina narrowed her eyes at Nora. It was true in a way that Darren had her life in his grasp. When she had come back from F Country, she had discovered that she was surrounded by Darren's people all the time. They had never attacked her, even when Dina had tried to disobey Darren's order time and again.
At that time, she had thought that the reason why Darren didn't dare to hurt her was because of his lower influence in Jingshi City. Dina was a movie queen, and Darren wouldn't dare to go against her just like that.
Now that Dina was in trouble, she couldn't help but ponder deeply over Nora's words. 'Was I wrong from the beginning? Or else, what does Nora mean by saying that?' Dina thought to herself. Her throat went dry at the thought itself. If Nora was right, Dina would probably die soon enough.
When Nora saw a panicked expression on Dina's face, her mouth curved up to form a satisfied smile. She decided to add more fuel to the already kindled fire. "Because of your identity as a movie queen, Darren really didn't have a good reason to deal with you before. But now..."
Dina's eyes widened at Nora's words. "He still doesn't dare to hurt me now!" At this point, Dina could only interrupt Nora hastily. Truthfully, Dina was terrified, but she couldn't let Nora see he
r Nora, the antidote for Carlos was the most important thing. She was only reaching out to Dina because of this simple reason. Nora wanted the cure as soon as possible to free Carlos, and Dina could help in this. In such a situation, Nora was bound to do anything.
Nora didn't know the type of poison Darren had used on Carlos. It was so powerful that no one had been able to trace the contents in it. It could even give Carlos an endless headache that had the capability to make anyone go mad. The situation was also out of her hand at the present date.
Later, when Nora had planned to sneak off and see the contents, Darren had ruined her plans. It was almost like he was a step ahead of her. Except him, no one else in the world knew the prescription.
Clearly, Darren wasn't lying. If Nora was able to join hands with Dina, they could try to prepare an antidote and work for Darren at the same time. It would be a better idea than to wait for the doctor, who didn't have a single idea of what poison Darren had given Carlos.
Nora didn't care about what Dina was going to do. She was only concerned about the poison hidden in Carlos's body.
As for helping Dina prove her innocence, Nora would somehow find a way out. If not, Nora would surely build a bridge out of the ruins to try and make sure that Dina's reputation was positive. Nora didn't care about the dead ends anymore.
They quickly reached an agreement and began to discuss countermeasures.
What they were facing was the issue of morality in society. The public undoubtedly had their doubts about Dina concerning this matter. If this doubt wasn't removed, people would not side with Dina anymore. Her ruined reputation would remain the same for years. At this time, if they could turn Dina's behavior into something more acceptable to the public's morality, it could work too. The public could even clap in unison for Dina!
The solution seemed to be almost perfect for both Dina and Nora.
