Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"What kind of ointment is this? It doesn't even have a pharmaceutical factory or a trademark."

Fanny was obviously worried about the medicine Keira brought.

It's not that she suspects Keira has ulterior motives, but she's worried that Keira has been deceived.

Fanny is Keira's cousin, and her family and growing environment are also very good.

Naturally, the requirements for some things are higher.

For example, it was even more impossible for her to use this kind of medicine with unknown origins casually.

"Can you believe me for once?"

"You put the medicine here, I will apply it myself."

"No, you definitely won't be able to use it."

Fanny couldn't resist Keira, so she could only ask Keila to help her apply the ointment.

After applying the ointment, a cooling feeling came over me.

"Huh..." Fanny felt a lot more relaxed.

Keira carefully helped Fanny apply the ointment to every corner of her palm.

"Okay, remember to wipe it every hour."

"Well, I understand, I want to rest." Fanny said perfunctorily.

"Let me know if anything happens."

"ok, ok, I got it."

Just as Keira left, there was another knock on the door.

Fanny rubbed her forehead. Did something fall down?

But when she opened the door, it wasn't Keira outside.

"Mom? Why are you here?"

The person who came was not Keira, but Fanny’s mother.

There were four bodyguards behind him.

"Why am I here? Can I not come?" Fanny's mother said with a bad face: "If I don't come again, you will die outside."

"Mom, I'm fine..."

"Look at your hands. Is this okay?"

"I……"

"Go back with me, okay?" Fanny's mother's face was still tense, but her tone softened. After all, she was her daughter and her only child.

"No, I won't go back." Fanny said stubbornly.

"What are you doing in Los Angeles?" Fanny's mother advised: "I won't object to you continuing your acting work after you recover from your injuries, but now, you come back with me."

"But, I still have a contract that I haven't completed yet."

"You don't have to worry about this, I will help you solve it." Fanny's mother said.

"Do you have to go?"

"Definitely." Fanny's mother waved her hand: "Help Fanny pack her things."

"Miss Fanny, do you want this?"

"want."

"what about this?"

"want."

"What about this?"

The bodyguard picked up the ointment that Kayla had left earlier.

Fanny hesitated for a moment and shook her head: "No more."

The bottle of ointment was thrown into the trash can by the bodyguard.

…

On the private plane, Fanny began to feel a dull pain again.

"Fanny, what's wrong with you?" Fanny's mother looked at her daughter with concern.

She saw that Fanny's face was not very good.

The pain that had disappeared for more than an hour came back again.

Fanny saw that her palms seemed to be knotted.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Fanny went to the bathroom and rinsed the knot on her hands with water.

But after touching the water, her palms hurt even more.

In fact, when she was discharged from the hospital, the doctor warned her not to touch water in the near future to avoid wound infection.

Fanny left the bathroom, covering her burned hand.

"Fanny, your wound starts to hurt again?"

Fanny's face looked very ugly and she nodded: "Get me some painkillers."

Fanny's mother hurriedly opened her bow and found painkillers.

Fanny's mother watched her take the painkillers and asked, "How are you now?"

Fanny originally thought that it might take a while for the medicine to take effect.

But after a moment, the pain still did not subside and continued to invade her nerves.

Fanny's forehead had begun to break into cold sweat.

Fanny thought of the bottle of ointment that Keira left for her earlier.

"Where's the ointment? Where's the bottle of ointment?"

"What ointment?"

Fanny remembered that the bottle of ointment seemed to have been thrown away in her apartment.

"Mom, I want to go back."

"What? It's about to take off."

"I left my medicine at home."

"What medicine? I'll buy it for you when you get home."

"No, I need that bottle of medicine, the same bottle of ointment from before."

The pain was driving her crazy.

She already regretted it, she shouldn't have been so reckless.

No matter how effective that bottle of ointment is.

At least it has a very good pain relief effect.

Fanny insisted on going back to get the ointment, but her mother could only stop the plane from taking off.

After hurriedly returning to her apartment, Fanny began to rummage through the trash can frantically.

"Where's the medicine? Where's the medicine?"

"Miss, I just threw the garbage into the trash can downstairs." The bodyguard said awkwardly.

"Fanny, what kind of medicine is it? Just buy another one."

"Keira gave it to me. As long as I put it on, I won't feel any pain."

"Did Keira give it to you? Then I'll call her and ask her."

"Don't..." Fanny's face became even more embarrassed.

If Keira knew that the ointment she had worked so hard to deliver was thrown away by her.

I guess Keira will fall out with her, right?

"I'll go look for it in the trash can downstairs."

"Miss Fanny...a garbage truck came by when we were going out," the bodyguard said.

Fanny was stunned. Fanny's mother looked at Fanny like this.

"Hi, Keira, I'm Doreen."

"Hello, Aunt Doreen."

"Did you give Fanny any ointment? I accidentally broke the ointment just now. Do you still have it there? Fanny needs it very much now."

"Huh? I don't have that ointment anymore."

"Can you tell me what brand it is? I'll buy one."

"That's not some brand of ointment. It was privately prepared by a doctor friend of mine."

"Then give me your friend's contact information and I will contact him."

"This...Aunt Doreen, are you in Los Angeles now?"

"Yes, I'm at Fanny's house."

"My friend's status is somewhat special, so I'm afraid I can't give you his contact information unilaterally. How about this, I can ask for you, okay?"

"Okay, no problem." Doreen was not unreasonable. She also knew that some people did have special circumstances.

…

"Hello, Mr. Chen?"

"Is it me, Miss Kayla? What's the matter?"

"I would like to ask, do you sell that ointment of yours?"

"Have you used it all?"

"Yes, I also want to buy a bottle."

"Two hundred thousand dollars a bottle, do you want it?"

Gaia was driving her car and almost rolled over on the road.

Chen Zhao glanced at Gaia, started to talk, and drove hard.

Keira gasped, two hundred thousand dollars.

From this point of view, I used one hundred thousand dollars to buy it from Marianne, but I made a profit.

"Really expensive."

"Since you've used it, you should know how effective that ointment is."

Indeed, that ointment was the most effective ointment she had ever seen.

While typing in front of a smoky computer desk, with the air conditioner turned on, it is simply a paradise on earth... Don't tell me that smoking with the air conditioner on is unhealthy, I have never been healthy.
