Alfred gently lifted her chin, leaning down until their eyes met. His gaze was filled with tenderness and concern. “The good. Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, and you’re already exhausted.” He worried about her health, and her youthful appearance only heightened his concern. “I don’t want our first experience to be rushed. I want it to be a good one for you.”

Lea’s face was flushed, red as a ripe cherry, her breath catching in her throat from embarrassment. She leaned into his embrace, resting her forehead against his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. She murmured a sof “okay” nodding slightly, her voice barely audible.

Alfred was also struggling.

ing. With her obedient and deeply affectionate expression, the soft, delicate person in his arms felt like a fire burning him from within, making him restless. They stayed in that position, slowly calming down together.

Alfred glanced at her computer and asked, “Do you

ok up information?

“Yeah, this matter was too crucial” Lea was determined to finish it as soon as possible, even if it meant staying up all night or for several days and nights.

“Alright, I’ll stay with you.” he said, pulling away from her and sitting nearby. He skillfully took out his laptop to start working as well.

Lea paused momentarily, suddenly understanding why two seats were prepared. They got busy with their work, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

Outside the window, the stars shifted in the sky as time seemed to flow around them. Four o’clock passed. Then five. Six o’clock approached

In the early light of Vaporleon City’s summer morning, the soft glow from the horizon streamed through the windows, casting a gentle radiance over Lea Lea clicked on the newly discovered data on one hand, stifling a yawn with her other hand.

“Take a nap,” Alfred gently commanded, his touch tender as he stroked her head. He understood the importance of what she had to do but couldn’t bear to see her so exhausted.

g his gaze with obedience, “Okay,” she agreed softly

Lea nodded, meeting

Alfred had already lifted her, carrying her over to the opposite couch, where he laid her down gently. His tall frame curled on the couch while Lea nestled in his embrace. In the small space, the two of them were snugly close,

Lea woke up to replace it was already noon, and Alfred was no longer on the couch

Chris brought her lunch and clothes, saying, “Mass Berry, Mr. Alfred just left. He asked you to eat first and wait for him.”

Lea pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Less than half an hour after lunch, she received a call from Alfred. “Come down; I’m waiting for you in the parking garage.”

Lea took the elevator down to the underground parking garage and saw a black SUV already pulled out with Alfred sitting inside, waiting for her. She opened the door and got into the passenger seat.

“Let’s go see Frank,” Alfred said, adjusting the steering wheel and driving forward

Lea smiled at him, feeling particularly content. Just as she had planned, he had already made arrangements. Their tacit understanding and mutual

connection were evident.

military will report directly. You can do whatever you want.” Alfred added.

“Regarding Frank’s situation, the military

“Alfred, thank you, and please extend my gratitude to your military connections, Lea said. She had experienced two different lives; such care was immensely precious. Lea felt grateful that these people had put considerable effort behind the scenes. She knew that nobody should take such help for granted

Alfred gave a sly smile. It’s their honor to be of assistance to you.

Lea’s unile grew wider, a joy from feeling favored.

An hour and a half later, in the basement of an apartment in the suburbs of Vaporleon City, the door creaked open, releasing a walt of foul, decaying odor. Lea wrinkled her nose, stepped inside, and gently closed the door behind her.

The basement had only one vent, allowing a small amount of light to filter in. Though the light was dim, it was enough for Lea to see the scene inside. Frank was lying against the wall, with blood stains covering his cliest and shoulders that were already dried up, and one of his legs was broken. Frank hadn’t been physically tortured by Alfred but was denied medical treatment and food, a form of indirect torment. His wounds hud become infected and were routing, leaving him extremely weak, with a deathlike pallor on his face.

Upon noticing someone entering, Frank struggled to lift his eyelids. His eyes lit up once he recognized who it was, and he seemed instantly revitalized. “It’s your Frank exclaimed. Those he had controlled were effortlessly slaughtered at his mercy to do with as he pleased. But Lea was different–not only had she escaped his grasp, but she had also managed to put him in this dire situation.

Chapter 121

“Frank Conor, have a couple of days of calm helped you clear your head?” Lea askerl

“How are you still able to move? Why don’t those drugs affect you? It has never happened before, why now? Frank was desperate for answers. He tried to get up, but his body barely lifted before collapsing back down with a thud. Yet, despite the pain, he continued questioning. “What makes you different from everyone else?”

Lea’s expression darkened. Of course, she was different, she was unique. “Why? Do you think that after your cruel treatment, I wouldn’t fight back That my body couldn’t resist the effects of your drugs? Ridiculous” Lea said.

Frank paused, acknowledging the logic in her words, yet he couldn’t shake off his doubts, scrutinizing her intently. “It’s a pary. If only your head and heart could be transplanted, the birth of a Floater would be possible.”

Lea laughed mockingly, thinking that after two days in confinement, he hadn’t repented at all. “To be fair, you have exceptional talent in organ transplantation and neural reconstruction. Your research in these fields is far ahead of the curve. But for the floater, your idea of using this concept to achieve tremendous results and capture global attention is pure fantasy! Do you think the public is that naive?”

“Shut up!” he exclaimed in frustration. “You know nothing. I will succeed. The Floater can be created. If cloning is possible, why not this?”

“The fact that you’re so angry and frustrated only shows that deep down you know the truth, she replied. If Frank genuinely had confidence, he wouldn’t be shouting hysterically like this,

After being exposed by Lea, Frank found himself unable to argue back, his mind spinning in turmoil, his wounded and weakened body trembling with pain. “No, it will succeed, given time, it will succeed Frank refused to accept defeat.

“Given time!” Lea book a few steps closer, scrutinizing him anew with a gaze sharp as blades. “With the rapid advancements in modern medical technology. Fraley Medical boasts Al Medical, gaining immense popularity and inflating stock prices. Gradually, your skills in organ transplantation and neural reconstruction will be introduced. In a decade or a few, even if the Floater fails, you will have been revered and standing stop the entire medical community.”

Fraley Medical has been embroiled in organ trafficking scandals in the preexistence. Still, thanks to the combined efforts of Matilda and Nixon, leveraging their online influence and control over public opinion, they managed to suppress them. If she lives long enough, she should be able to witness what she’s talking about.

“Unfortunately for you, you’ve crossed paths with me” Lea’s gue shifted, darkening, exuding an aura of destruction. Til expose all your secrets”
