Cameron did not have much strength as he weakly raised his eyes. However, his frigid look was enough to shut Fabian up immediately and even made him subconsciously straighten up. Fabian suddenly had a bad feeling in his gut."It must have been hard on you the past few days that I'm down," Cameron said lightly. His tone was lazy and somewhat tired.Fabian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his brother-in-law’s praises. He said smilingly, "It's nothing! It's what I should do! We are a family, after all. Ron, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable? I think we should go to the hospital. Since you're awake now, we can go to the military hospital.“The hospital there is good, and I'm sure their treatment is also on par. It's better to go there than to be a lab rat for these people," he said as he glanced at Alexander pointedly."Did some animals come into the house when I was asleep?" Cameron turned to Anastasia and asked gently after taking a breath.She frowned. "No. Uncle
"Go now, my a*s! You must be out of your mind!" Cameron's face suddenly changed as he grabbed a pillow and threw it at Fabian."Ron!" Fabian dodged it and yelled tremblingly. It was not the pillow he feared. Cameron had just woken up, so he had no strength, and the pillow barely nudged Fabian.However, Cameron had always been a majestic man, and Fabian had always been terrified of him. Fabian scolded Anastasia before he woke up, and now, Fabian was getting called out. He immediately felt a rush of guilt."You idiot! I was just out for a few days, and you're already pacing around like you own this place. Do you think I’d let you off the hook by putting up this act?“I know about the shady things you did, so you better scurry off and never show yourself before my eyes again. Get out!" Cameron growled unceremoniously without any scruples about how many people were still there.Fabian felt so badly shunned that he dared not show his anger. Despite so, he was still highly dissatisfied.
The atmosphere became much more relaxed with Alexander and Cameron left in the room. They were like old friends who had not seen each other for a long time. Alexander even grabbed a chair and sat down."How are you feeling?" He asked."My chest is still a little stuffy, and my brain is still foggy, but it's better than before," Cameron answered lightly. He stroked his chest with one hand and coughed lightly. It sounded suppressed, but he looked much better after."That's normal. After all, you've been asleep for so many days. Forget the damage to your body. Even a normal person would feel dazed after sleeping for so long," Alexander said.After a pause, he changed the topic. "But you're not completely in the dark about everything, are you?"Cameron did not speak but looked at him with heavy eyes."You know what I'm talking about," Alexander prodded.After a moment of silence, Cameron heaved a long sigh and nodded. "Yeah. Although my body was out of control, I was still occasiona
At that time, he was obviously on guard. Cameron knew he could restrain Rhea if he had to, but he did not expect her to pull such a move on him.Alexander shook his head. "I have no idea. The poison is in Rhea's hands. The organization has occupied itself with studying various new viruses. It should’ve been ongoing for a long time. So many new types of viruses broke out all at once.”Cameron was aware of the previous plague. As a secretary, he knew some confidential information hidden from the public. He had been dealing with it and arresting those involved. However, he did not expect Rhea to be one of them and fall into her trap."Now, the vaccine development project has fallen into their hands!" Cameron exclaimed. That was what he was most worried about.That time, he watched "himself" take back the project and did another bidding just to hand it to Fabian. He wished he could wake himself up, but he could only watch helplessly.Now that he finally had control of himself, he had t
There was a knock on the door, and Anastasia's voice sounded outside, "Dad."Cameron took a breath and said, "Come in."Anastasia opened the door and entered with a tray with a bowl of porridge and a few side dishes."Dad, I got the kitchen to cook some porridge and a few side dishes. You can have it later." After a pause, she continued, "You just woke up, so you can't eat greasy food. These are just very mild dishes.""Okay." He nodded. He was indeed a little hungry. When she put the food down, he immediately straightened up and picked up the porridge before sipping it slowly.Alexander nodded to her slightly and headed out the door to answer his phone."Dad, how are you feeling?" Anastasia sat down next to the bed and looked at Cameron with concern.Cameron nodded with a slight smile. "Much better. It must’ve been a lot for you throughout this time.""No, it's nothing," she sincerely replied, shaking her head. Although tired and worried, she knew her father had it more challe
"Will I die?" Cameron asked after thinking about it."No, that's not what I mean," Alexander hurriedly explained, "It doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll die, but you might see signs of deterioration. You might not be as strong or fit as before, but these aren't the biggest concerns. The scariest thing would be the damage it might have done to your organs or brain."All of these were unanswered questions. Only time could tell. The best approach now would be for Lily to be here and observe Cameron daily, but that was an impossible request as she was in the organization’s lab and could not leave."All is good if I'm not dying soon," Cameron said nonchalantly.He had experienced countless storms over the years. This was nothing to him. On top of that, he had more important things to focus on right now. Only once he had settled his unfinished business would he retire and recuperate."Dad…" Anastasia was distraught as she squeezed her father’s hand. However, he shook his head to indicate t
It was a hot, sunny afternoon when Lily strode into the laboratory building with a hazmat suit on. She appeared to be in a hurry and looked like she was swamped.The hallway was silent, with no one in sight, which she had expected. Usually, most working areas would be packed with people during the day and turned dead silent at night.However, Lily noticed this place was the opposite after observing it for the last two days. Midnight was when this place would be full of people and was its busiest time, while no one would be around during the day.This place was the institute’s rightful property and a legitimate place of business. They could operate normally, but Lily wondered if they worked late at night because they were accustomed to doing things at night or could only do the experiments during that period.Anyhow, this place worked the opposite way as the other working areas. Since that was the case, Lily had to execute her plan during the day. Nonetheless, the different working
Lily subconsciously retracted her hand in an instant. She was shocked as well. The earlier feeling made her think she was under a curse. As Lily had learned about herbal plants, she knew how poisonous the wilfordi root could be.Moreover, this was a mutated plant before her, so she should not touch it. However, she felt she was possessed earlier because she could not help but extend her hand toward it. It was such a strange feeling.When she snapped back to her senses, she looked toward the voice. It was a man in a hazmat suit, and she could only see his eyes. She did not know anyone here, but the man gave her a sense of familiarity.“Who are you?” she asked warily.“You don’t need to know that, but I’d advise you to leave as quickly as possible.” With that, he turned and left the room.Lily was puzzled. She wondered if he had come here just to warn her. Before she could react, the man exited through the door and turned at the corner, disappearing from her sight.She chased behin
