Frank’s eyes widened, glaring at her as he roared in fury. That’s scientific research! It’s for thebenefit of all humanity. Sacrifices are inevitable in research. So what if it gets exposed“”

Lea scoffed. “You label that as research? It’s simply murder! The military has already closed off theunderground storage unit, your residence, and your properties in rural and suburban areas. Evenyour Floater project stands as evidence against you. Every piece of evidence points to you being aserial killer. The police investigation is nearing completion. Families of the victims are becominginformed, and they will press charges against you. With countless lives lost and your history ofillegal organ transplants, even if you perished repeatedly, it wouldn’t suffice to settle your debt!”

Confronted with such a murderous villain, she longed to inflict upon him a gruesome demise andserve justice. However, she was restrained by the necessity to abide by the law.

Frank’s eyes widened once more, filled with madness. His already distorted demeanor made hisexpression savage, now even more unhinged. “No. no.. you cannot ruin all that I haveaccomplished, the revolutionary medical research of a brilliant mind. It is a crime

Lea’s gaze dripped with contempt and apathy. “You? Worthy? Frank Conor, your pursuit ofmedical success is merely a thirst for recognition to assert your dominance and to satisfy yourvanity. Your enjoyment of slaughter, devoid of empathy, paints you as a serial killer. Your truenature. veiled in darkness, replaces its sole sanctuary in hell”

“Come in.” Lea said. Craig Allen, stationed outside the door, pushed it open and entered.

“Miss Lea, what are your orders?” Craig asked.

“Inform the police and the military that the serial killer has been apprehended. Tell them to comeand take him away” With that, Lea turned and

left.

“No! No, you can’t Frank suddenly hinged forward, grasping her leg. “Lea Berry, you can’t do this.You can’t destroy my achievements in organ transplantation and neural reconstruction! You evensaid I’m gifted. You can’t erase my achievements. L. Frank Conor, am a successful doctor. I amsuccessful and outstanding Frank, in a state of panic and fear, pleaded desperately

Craig was taken aback, watching the scene with astonishment. He had been stationed outside andhadn’t heard much of what was said inside. Frank the deranged killer, with his twisted personalityand abnormal brain functions, had a nervous system that differed from ordinary people, allowinghim to endure extreme pain and fear. That’s why they had been unable to interrogate or coerce him.Graig wondered what Lea had said that had utterly shattered him, reducing him to pleading.

“You don’t want to be remembered as a deranged killer, shocking the world. You want people torecognize your virtues and acknowledge your medical achievements, and that’s not impossible” Leacrouched down, her gaze piercing into his eyes. It all depends on what terms you’re willing

to offer”

Frank trembled as he looked at Lea. She wore a simple white sundress, radiating youthfulinnocence and beauty. Yer, deep down, she possessed a decisive and ruthless nature, alwayscapable of seizing control in an mutant

“Lea Berry, what do you want to gain from me? Frank was not foolish, now calmed down anddiscerned her intentions.

“I can arrange for Riverview Hospital to purchase your research achievements in organtransplantation and neural restructuring. We’ll ensure widespread publicity through news, television,the Internet, and traditional and modern media platforms. It will trend globally, ensuring everyoneknows, Lea said.

Upon hearing Lea’s words, Frank’s eyes gradually lit up with excitement, his gaze filled withanticipation, and a smile spread across his face. He could already envision himself being the centerof attention online, admired, appreciated, and remembered by people everywhere.

Lea grabbed his collar, staring him down. “I want you to turn yourself in. Confess to all the illegalorgan transplant surgeries you’ve conducted under Fraley Medical over the years to the police.”

Ten days later, Jeffrey’s funeral was over, Christian managed to replace time to visit Ewan in thehospital.

Despite his anger and disappointment, Ewan was still his only son–additionally, the guilt of havingneglected him since childhood weighed heavily on him. While Christian appeared distant on thesurface, deep down, he still cared greatly about Ewan During this time, Matilda was constantly byhis side, handling the funeral arrangements, caring for his health, and assisting with the company’saffairs. Lea accompanied them to visit this

“father” of her.

After reaching an agreement with Frank, who also provided numerous clues, she handed them overto Quicksilver and the hacker accompanying Chris for investigation. Meanwhile, she strategicallyappeared before Christian and Matilda, masking her actions behind a facade.

Shannon Yancey also participated in the efforts. Whatever Lea wanted to accomplish, Shannonspared no effort to assist. Chris ensured that she was paid according to the standards of theirtechnical staff.

As for Helen, Lea learned from Matilda’s report to Christian that she had gone abroad for a brandendorsement shoot. She would return a week later, just in time for her interview at ConradUniversity.

Bang! Christian angrily kicked open the door.

“Whoever dares… Ewan’s grumbling voice trailed off as he caught sight of the person at the door,swallowing his words abruptly.

“You’re not dead yet?” Christian entered with a dark expression, scolding angrily. Why don’t you justgo and get yourself to death?”

Ewan’s face flushed with embarrassment, and he lowered his head, burying his phone under thecovers, not daring to make a sound. He was terrified of his father. During his childhood, the role of afather figure was almost absent, and his understanding of him came mainly from these around him.They told him that Christian was someone who wouldn’t bat an eye at killing on the battlefield. AsEwan grew older, his shortcomings only widened the gap between them. Their relationship wastaut

Lea was speechless. It was the first time she had seen Christian scolded someone like this. Hecertainly lived up to bring Ewan’s biological father.

Victor, the secretary, looked sympathetically at Ewan lying on the bed, hoping that his physical andmental strength would grow stronger and that he wouldn’t be further affected by Christian’swords…

“Dad, don’t be angry. Ewan is unwell. Matilda comforted Christian, immediately stepping forward tohelp ridy up the bed.

Ewan was admitted to an executive suite ward with distinct kitchen, living room, and bedroomsections. All were equipped with hospital staff and amenities. Additionally, servants from the Berryfamily were also arranged. But still, the ward was in a mess. The bed was untidied, and even hispatient gown was wrinkled. His hair was unkempt, and he exuded an air of irritability. His mentalstate was also visibly poor.

“How did you let yourself get like this? Where are the servante? Why didn’t you ask them to tidyup? Matilda asked as she reached out to straighten the pillows.

“Don’t touch my stuff Ewan grabbed her hand abruptly, gritting his teeth. Despite suppressing hisirritability in front of Christian, it returned.

Matilda lowered her voice and spoke gently. “Do you have to anger Dad right now! Jeffrey’s passinghas hit him hard, and with his health not being great, his mood is even worse.”

Angering Christian would only bring suffering upon himself in the coil. He understood the unspokenimplications behind her words.
