“What? The vaccine was snatched?” Adrian grasped the bodyguard’s shoulder, and his expression changed drastically. “Who snatched it from you?”The bodyguard lowered his head. “It’s the prince’s men.”Adrian let go of him, walked back to the desk, gritted his molars, and listened to the bodyguard as he continued to explain how they had gotten stopped when they were on their way back. There were many of them, all of them with guns, and their target was the suitcase.Adrian picked up a cigarette packet and smacked it against his palm, but it was already empty, so he slammed the packet to the floor. “D*mn it!”‘We finally got our hands on Strix’s vaccine for our research, but Roger’s men snatched it!’He knew that Strix had come up with two top-notch antibodies back then, and those two antibodies could control the condition of patients who were infected by the sleeper virus. Of course, it could only help patients in the middle stage of the infection.Those two antibodies contained ge
Nolan lifted his head. “This is Strix’s vaccine. Even if it doesn’t work, at least it won’t kill me.”Quincy was bewildered as if he was guessing which “Strix” Nolan was referring to.“You should’ve prepared for the press conference that’s going to take place in two days, shouldn’t you?” Nolan asked.Quincy returned to his senses. “Yes.”Nolan smiled as he folded the newspaper and then looked out of the window coldly. “That should be very interesting.”At the press conference two days later…The reporters and media outlets that were present were looking forward to this moment.After all, if the vaccine had cured Nolan, it would be a miracle in the history of the medical world.The sleeper virus had swept across Stoslo in the past, causing many deaths. After the fall of the Kents, the news about the fake vaccines had made the public even more exasperated.A man-made disaster had almost dragged the entire Stoslo into hell, and the vaccine that Strix had developed back then, whic
‘I’m the one who brought the vaccine and saved Nolan. Grandpa will only value me more now. As long as Nolan and Grandpa are on my side, I won’t have to be afraid even if Adrian comes through that door!’Nolan, who had been sitting in the wheelchair, stood up slowly, and everyone present was shocked. Everyone had heard that he was originally on the verge of death and could only rely on a wheelchair to move around.‘He can stand up now?‘Could it be that the vaccine really works? Does it actually help a person who’s already dying recover so quickly?’Strix stopped before him while Nolan smiled and stretched out his hand. “It’s nice to see you, Mr. Salazar.”‘Strix Salazar!?’The reporters were all stunned.“Mr. Henry is Strix Salazar?”“Oh my God! This news is too explosive!”Sue was dumbfounded, and her gaze was fixed on Nolan.‘How does he know that Mr. Henry is Strix!?’Strix shook hands with Nolan. “I’ve heard a lot about you, Mr. Goldmann, and I’ve always wanted to meet y
Adrian snorted. “Strix gave me that vaccine for research purposes. It can’t cure Nolan Goldmann as he’s infected with a new type of sleeper virus, which has no incubation period.“Plus, the vaccine I got from Strix is the one that was developed more than ten years ago, and it would only be useful to people who are infected with the ordinary sleeper virus. You know nothing about the virus nor the vaccine, and you have the guts to use it on him?”Sue shuddered, and the people around them seemed to have frozen, and even half of their voices had disappeared.Adrian then looked at the group of reporters. “Why are we studying antibodies? The vaccine developed by the Kents aimed to achieve an anti-cancer effect and improve human genes through the virus to prevent certain diseases.“It’s an idea that has a glorious objective, but unfortunately, the Kents had failed, causing the worst catastrophe that the human population has ever faced back then. The things we study are the same as those t
‘What’s going on? The bodyguards actually let them through!?’Strix came out of the Intensive Care Unit in protective clothing. “Have you brought it?”Erwin handed the silver suitcase to Strix, and Titus stood up slowly and looked at them. “Can… Can this save Nolan?”Strix took the suitcase. “As long as Elder Master Goldmann is willing to believe in it.”Titus did not say anything. After all, the vaccine he had allowed Sue to administer to Nolan had almost killed Nolan once. However, at this point, he had to believe in him even if he did not want to.Strix went into the Intensive Care Unit with the suitcase.Sue, who the bodyguards stopped, shouted at Maisie and Erwin, “This is a scheme that you’ve set up, isn’t it!?”‘It must be their scheme! I’ve snatched the vaccine! How could there still be an identical thing!? This must be their scheme!’Maisie turned around slowly and glanced at Sue. A smile then appeared on the corners of her lips. “What scheme are you talking about?”S
“To be exact, there’s isn’t a huge effect.”Strix turned around. “This was a mere side effect from the rejection. The sleeper virus has a relatively stubborn cell. When the vaccine is injected into the body, those cells that spread will start to become active and accelerate the metabolism. His body cannot bear it, but he won’t die. "Maisie paused and pressed her lips together. If she knew that the vaccine would cause such a huge reaction to rejection, she might not have taken the chance.Strix consoled her, “You don’t need to feel bad. I initially planned to let Adrian use that vaccine for research. Even if you didn’t inform Erwin to make him take precautions, he would still have two vaccines with him at that time.”No matter which type it was, they didn’t affect Nolan negatively, but it just didn’t let Sue and Roger get their way. After Strix left, Maisie stood there alone until someone said, “I wasn’t expecting you to be behind the vaccine issue.”Maisie didn’t turn around, b
Something came to Quincy’s mind. “By the way, Sue has been coming to see you for the past few days. I’m not sure how she found out that Mr. Vanderbilt framed her about the vaccine, and she told Elder Master Goldmann about this. He believes her and blames Ms. Vanderbilt for it.”Nolan paused what he was doing and turned sideways, his eyes looking dark and lonely. …A silver-white car slowly drove into the yellow poplar forest. The wide lawn and the rows of tall poplar trees looked like an oil painting under the bright blue sky.This beautiful yet secluded area was where Adrian lived.Saydie parked the car outside a three-story tall villa with its own lawn. The doors were tightly shut.Maisie got out of the car, Saydie rang the doorbell, and someone came to the door after a long time. The man looked out from behind the door and asked, “Who are you?”“Is Mr. Kestner in?”“No.” Saydie suddenly kicked the door as the man was about to close it. The man took out a gun to defend h
As to why they had only tied up Jones, it was probably because of his family background. He was the only son in his family, unlike Adrian.The doctor walked out of the ward when Maisie asked, “How’s Mr. Smith?”The doctor smiled. “He was lucky to get here in time, and he didn’t go into hemorrhagic shock. I gave him stitches, and he just needs to rest for a few days.”Maisie walked into the room. Jones was lying in bed as he looked back at her. “Thanks.”“Don’t mention it.” Maisie stood next to the bed. “When we met back in Luxella, I asked about Ms. Reynolds and your uncle. Were you trying to help your uncle keep a secret?”He had avoided the topic because he wanted to keep it a secret. Jones paused and smiled, looking pale. “My uncle didn’t work with Roger. He was a fan of experiments. How do I put this? He had been obsessed with his own experiments and ignored the outside world and the objections of his family.”“So he left your family?” Maisie had heard Nolan mention that so
