Chapter 282: She Is A Victim

"Kasie was drugged? What drug? Who drugged her?" Emmett asked anxiously.

"Er..." Debbie was too embarrassed. "That kind of drug..."

At that moment, Kasie got close to the phone and murmured, "Emmett... I want to have sex with you..."

Debbie was shocked.

Even Emmett didn't know how to respond. It was as though his whole world had just collapsed on top of him. After a long pause, he managed to say, "Tomboy, take her to the hospital. I'm on my way."

"Okay," Debbie answered.

Kasie held Debbie's waist tightly and rested her head on her shoulder. "Emmett, shame on you! Are you a man or not? If I am not gonna make it, you'll regret your decision." Kasie was only half-aware of what she was saying.

Emmett had to be firm with her. He asked Debbie, "Which hospital are you heading for? I'm on the Phoenix Road right now."

Debbie looked out the car window and saw The Third People's Hospital not too far away. "We'll arrive at The Third People's Hospital soon."

"Got it! Please take care of Kasie for me."

He hung up. Kasie whispered in Debbie's ear, "Deb, I feel like... I'm going to explode. Deb, let me kiss you..."

'Oh my God! This drug is so potent. It can turn a straight person gay...' Debbie's eyes widened as Kasie got closer to her.

She shook her head and pushed her down. "Stop it, Kasie! I'm not gonna make out with you. Just lie down on my lap."

Kasie struggled violently in Debbie's arms. She really couldn't take it anymore. "Tomboy, help me. I'd rather die than go through this. Please help me... Call Emmett! Call him. If he refuses to have sex with me... I...I will sleep with..." Kasie paused, and looked at the man in the driver's seat. "I'll sleep with... him!"

The guard was dumbstruck.

Debbie was on the brink of a meltdown when they arrived at the hospital.

About twenty minutes later, she heaved a sigh of relief as she stared at Kasie, who was fast asleep in the ward. She called Emmett again. "Where are you now? Kasie has already been treated. You can take your time."

"I just arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Are you in the inpatient department? Tell me the ward number."

Debbie walked out of the ward and gave him the number. She then added, "Emmett, where is Carlos? Don't lie to me."

There was a pause. Then Debbie heard Emmett shut the car door and say, "I'll tell you in person."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Debbie leaned against the wall and dialed Carlos' number for the thousandth time. As she thought, his phone was still off.

Anxiety flooded her. 'Where is he? Why is his phone always off?'

Before long, Emmett rushed into the ward, running short of breath. He stared at the unconscious Kasie and his face went pale.

Emmett was in a suit and leather shoes as usual. But his tie was loosened and his hair was a mess. He was too anxious to pay any attention to his image.

Debbie told him, "The doctor said that she had inhaled that kind of drug. Luckily, she was brought to the hospital in time. Nothing serious, except that she bit her lips and slightly broke her arm."

Emmett sat on the edge of the bed and took Kasie's hand, kissing it softly.

After a while, he asked in a low voice, "Was she... Was she...?" Kasie's hair was disheveled, and her face was as pale as a ghost'. He couldn't tell whether she had been raped or not.

Debbie was confused at first, but then understood what he meant.

She decided to check Emmett's sincerity towards Kasie. Feigning sadness, she said, "Yes. Emmett, do you mind that Kasie was raped?"

Emmett stood up and clenched his fists, his face livid. "Who did it? I'll kill him!"

"Do you mind it?" she insisted.

'Do I mind it?' Emmett closed his eyes and answered, "Why would I mind it?" He opened his eyes, turned to Debbie and said in a serious tone, "She is a victim. I feel bad for her. I'm angry for her. Who did this? I swear he'll pay."

He was fuming. 'I will kill the asshole with my own hands! I will get justice for her.'

Debbie heaved a sigh of relief. "Good. Actually, she did almost get raped, but..."

"What?" Emmett was confused now. 'So, was Kasie raped or not?'

"Don't worry. I rescued her in time. She's still a virgin. Emmett, do you think premarital sex is immoral or something? Why did you turn her down when she said she wanted to have sex with you?" Debbie patted his stressed shoulder.

Emmett wiped the sweat off his forehead. 'She was just fooling around with me! Thank God!'

Seeing that Emmett was panting, Debbie poured a glass of water and gave it to him. "Oh, by the way, where is Carlos? You said you would tell me in person," she asked.

At the mention of Carlos' name, Emmett's face changed and he seemed very nervous. He drank the water in one gulp.

Debbie raised an eyebrow. She noticed his nervous expression. She took the glass from his hand and poured him another glass of water.

Again, he drank it in one gulp.

Debbie gave him a third glass of water, and Emmett finally broke the awkward silence. "Mrs. Huo, please forgive me. If I sell Mr. Huo out this time, he will surely fire me. So..."

Debbie didn't know how to respond to his helpless words.

"Rest assured, Mr. Huo will be back either today or tomorrow," he added.

Debbie snorted, "Rest assured? What are you all hiding from me? Carlos is still wounded and has been missing for two days. How can I rest easy?" Debbie gnashed her teeth and thought angrily, 'I won't spare Carlos this time.'

Emmett didn't know how to calm her down, and had to change the subject. "Who did this to Kasie?" he asked.

With a sneer, Debbie said, "If you don't tell me Carlos' whereabouts, I will ask Kasie to break up with you. So, do you want to get fired or do you want to break up with Kasie?"

Emmett couldn't believe that she would threaten him like this. 'Seriously? I really can't bear this couple anymore.'

When he didn't respond, Debbie yelled at her friend, "Kasie, wake up! Emmett is breaking up with you— Argh! Don't pull me! Let me go!"

Emmett grabbed Debbie's wrist and pulled her out of the ward.

There were many people passing by outside the ward, so Emmett let go of her hand. After all, people might recognize her.
