Chapter 456Chapter 456 Mr. Hill’s Passion, Only Two Days?
After massaging her for a few minutes, Jason switched to the other leg and continued the massage.
After about ten minutes, Alta finally felt comfortable.
“That was enough, I didn’t feel uncomfortable anymore,” she said softly, moving her leg gently.
Jason nodded and helped her cover herself with the blanket. Then he got up and went to take a
shower.
Alta was somewhat surprised by his actions. Just a moment ago, she had almost been consumed by
the intense atmosphere, but Jason seemed even more composed than herself. Was he not interested
after just two days? She couldn’t help but lower her gaze and look at herself, even pinching her waist.
Was I too skinny?
After pondering for a while, Jason finished his shower and came out. Coincidentally, Eaton brought the
clothes, and Jason, with only a towel wrapped around his waist, came out to pick them up.
Jason’s hair was still wet, and the bright water droplets slid down his well-defined features. Eaton
approached with the bag and urged Alta, “Go change and avoid catching a cold.”
“Okay,” Alta nodded, changing into her pajamas. When she returned, she laid back in bed.
Jason finished drying his hair, changed into his pajamas, and then turned off the lights, leaving only a
small night light on. He lay down and pulled Alta into his arms, saying, “Go to sleep.”
Alta couldn’t help but raise her gaze and look at him. Was he really no longer interested? Seeing her
expression, Jason playfully rubbed her head and asked, “What’s with that look in your eyes?”Alta hesitated momentarily, then muttered softly into the covers, “Nothing, just curious if Mr. Hill’s
passion only lasted two days.”
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookJason was momentarily taken aback, then somewhat helpless, and he said, “Why do you think about
such things? I’m concerned about your health.” He remembered what President Thomson had said in
the afternoon. Ultimately, he didn’t want to put her through any unnecessary hardships. He feared that
she wouldn’t be able to handle it later on.
“If it weren’t for your health issues, I wouldn’t let you stay in bed for three days!” Jason gently bit her lip
and continued in a low voice, “So, stop provoking me and just go to sleep like a good girl.”
Hearing his words, Alta’s ears turned red. However, seeing him. consider her well-being made her feel
happy. Soon, she nodded and snuggled in the man’s embrace, saying, “Then, please bear with it, Mr.
Hill.”
After saying that, she found a comfortable position and fell asleep.
Jason held her tightly in his arms. Although he couldn’t do much, being by her side was enough to
satisfy him.
At that moment, on an island far away from the Alliance, inside a luxurious castle.
Professor Peter and Eugene, the leader of the Hunters, stood respectfully in the grand hall, looking at
the woman with her back turned to them.
The woman was dressed in a black satin dress, wearing a pair of black lace embroidered gloves on her
hands and a veil hat that partially covered her face. The hat concealed most of her face, making it
difficult to see her appearance, but a slightly pointed. nose and meticulously adorned fiery red lips
could be vaguely glimpsed.The provocative lip color complemented the red liquid in her wine glass, making her all the more
alluring.
Professor Peter, missing one hand, looked unusually pale at the moment. He stood respectfully behind
the woman, speaking in a cautious and humble tone, “Madam, thanks to your help, we could escape
smoothly in this operation. I’m truly grateful.”
After listening to his gratitude, the woman’s attitude didn’t change. much. She took a sip of the swirling
red wine and simply uttered a faint “Hmm.”
Her voice was slightly hoarse, cold, and devoid of warmth.
Professor Peter suddenly felt a wave of pressure he couldn’t explain. At that moment, the woman
turned slowly and glanced at his arm, asking, “Will this injury affect the subsequent research?”
“Naturally, it won’t affect the subsequent research,” Professor Peter quickly replied.
The fear in his eyes left no doubt that he would have met an immediate demise right there on the spot if
he had answered otherwise.
After hearing his response, the woman seemed satisfied and shifted her gaze to Eugene, who was
standing nearby. In a casual tone, she asked, “You won’t blame me for the loss of so many personnel
this time, will you?”
Eugene quickly lowered his head, assuming a submissive attitude, and said, “Of course not. The
Hunters were under your orders, Madame. The fact that those people died indicates their inadequacy.
However, it was useful for them to sacrifice themselves for you!”
Upon hearing his words, the woman curled her lips and said, “That’s good. Although this incident failed,
you shouldn’t blame yourselves. I intentionally delayed providing information from our side, so there’sno need for excessive self-reproach on your part.”
With those words, Professor Peter and Eugene breathed a sigh of relief. Initially, they had worried that
the woman would blame them and suffer dire consequences. They had managed to escape unscathed.
Taking the opportunity, Professor Peter asked, “Madame, what should we do next? The World Medical
Alliance may have already developed a cure. If we continue like this, our plan…”
The woman seemed indifferent and lightly interrupted, “It doesn’t matter. Let them struggle. At present,
we have already seen the feasibility of the experiment through Alta. She’s still alive and has exhibited
some mutations… So, you just need to continue researching along this path.”
Professor Peter furrowed his brow upon hearing her words and said, “It may be possible, but the
viability of this experiment relies on Alta’s unique constitution. Others may not possess this particular
trait.”
The woman dismissed his concerns nonchalantly, “There are so many people in the world; we can try
to find others. I refuse to believe that Alta is the only one with this exceptional trait.”
“Yes, I will do my best,” Professor Peter replied, not daring to say anything more.
With the conversation concluded, the woman seemed tired and sat down slowly on the couch, waving
her hand impatiently at the two men, “Alright, there’s nothing else. You may leave.”
Professor Peter and Eugene didn’t dare to question the woman’s attitude and immediately bid farewell
before exiting.
Once outside, both visibly relaxed, releasing the tension from their bodies. When they exchanged a
glance, they saw a hint of fear in each other’s eyes.To them, the woman inside the room was undoubtedly terrifying.
No one knew her age, but they knew she was the leader of the top- tier dark organization, “Bloods.”
She also controlled the “Devourers ” and the “Hunters.” Furthermore, she had carried the prestigious
code name of “Countess” for several decades.
On Alta’s side, after a peaceful night’s sleep, she woke up the next morning around eight o’clock.
Opening her eyes, she noticed that Jason was no longer beside her. However, there was a faint aroma
of coffee in the air.
She immediately sat up and glanced around the room.
Jason stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, sipping his coffee.
Outside, a fantastic view of the sea stretched before him. The sun had recently risen, and its rays
poured in, casting a golden glow over his figure.
Such a scene made Alta’s heart flutter.
She promptly threw off the covers and padded towards the man. As she reached him from behind, she
wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her face against his back, lazily greeting him, “Good
morning, fiancé!”
