Chapter 722 A Bitter Taste
Isidra couldn’t bear to imagine, without the protection of the suit jacket, what her face would have looked like had it been splashed by the liquid just now.
So, she quickly turned her gaze to Byron again.
She saw that the man was now wearing a smog blue shirt, which seemed to render him even more tall and upright. His side profile was also increasingly charming.
At that moment, Isidra could almost hear her heart beating faster…
On the other side, the private chef’s owner also rushed out after hearing Eliza’s heart–wrenching scream.
“Call the police. This woman has a knife and sulfuric acid. She’s trying to murder my wife.”
The man continued to pin Eliza’s head down, immobilizing her.
His voice was so cold it sent chills down one’s spine, like a demon from hell.
The private chef’s owner was scared and quickly called the police as instructed by Byron.
The police didn’t dare to delay once they received the call and quickly took Eliza away.
“You all think you can get away from me just like this? It’s you who made me like this. If you don’t allow me to return to my previous life, will come back for revenge after I’m out.”
Eliza was still shouting at Cora and Byron as she was taken away.
The cold light in Byron’s eyes remained unchanged. “Okay. I won’t let you come out again.”
Then he called Carter, instructing him to “take care” of Eliza properly.
He added, “Notify everyone in the industry to immediately cut off all collaborations with the Vega family, or else they’re opposing the Hansen Group. Make sure the Vega family goes bankrupt in two days. Let them all meet in prison.”
He had already told the Vega family to handle this problem, but since they didn’t, he couldn’t be blamed for taking matters into his own hands.
After Carter acknowledged the order, Byron hung up the call, went over and carefully examined Cora to ensure she wasn’t injured, then held her in his arms.
“You’re not hurt, are you? I saw that a part of your arm was splashed.”
Cora didn’t dare to let her guard down and quickly checked Byron’s sleeve.
Sure enough, there was an area that had been splashed, and it was starting to bleed.
Cora didn’t delay and quickly began to administer emergency treatment.
“Mr. Hansen, you’re hurt?” Isidra quickly came over to check and when she saw Byron’s wound, she was really worried.
“Oh my God, it’s so serious. Let me get you to the hospital.”
She even stretched out her hand to help Byron, but he rejected her touch. He spoke coldly, “Miss Isidra Wolf, Cora is a doctor.”
“I know that Dr. Lane can handle these, but she doesn’t have enough medication here. It’s safer to go to the hospital.”
For the first time, Isidra didn’t feel hurt by this man’s coldness. She just wanted to get him to the hospital as soon as possible to ensure his safety.
“No need Going to the hospital for such a small injury would be laughable,” Byron continued to keep Isidra at arm’s length.
But Isidra was insistent. “You got injured saving me. How can I not care about your safety?”

“You’re overthinking. I didn’t really want to save you. I was just worried that if you got hurt because of Cora, she would inevitably be implicated.”
Byron’s intentions were very clear.
He didn’t save her because he cared about her safety. He did it to avoid Cora being implicated.
Georgia was quite frightened just now and was only now starting to recover.
Seeing her uncle rejecting Isidra’s offer to take him to the hospital, she tried to reassure Isidra, “Isidra, my uncle has had numerous minor and major injuries before, and he rarely goes to the hospital. Plus, my auntie is here with him. You don’t need to worry.”
In the end, Isidra could only give up.
As she watched Byron and Cora leave after treating his wound, she felt a bitter taste in her heart…
