Craig bowed politely. “Have a safe journey, Mr. Jenson.”
Standing at the side of the gate, he watched Cedrick enter a vehicle and leave.
Once the automobiles vanished from his view, he kicked a large pot in the garden in a fit of fury.
“Cedrick Jenson!” exclaimed Craig with resentment.
Gritting his teeth, he suddenly recalled something. Oh, cr*p! Jennifer has been staying at the Jenson
residence for almost a week now. I guess I’IL…
Upon composing himself, he returned to the villa and summoned Jasmine to the study.
“What’s the matter, Craig?” she asked.
Irritated, Craig smoked and ordered, “Remember to visit Jennifer in the Jenson residence in these two
days. You must bring the bodyguards protecting you into the bedroom.”
“Eh?” Jasmine was confounded. “Gwendolyn’s always the one leading me to the room. I don’t think
she’ll allow the bodyguards to enter because there are too many people-”
Smashing his hand on the table, Craig demanded, “I don’t care what you do. Just ensure you can
spend time in Jennifer’s room alone with the bodyguards.”
“Mr. Treyton and the doctor never leaves Jennifer’s room, Craig. What you’re asking me to do is
impossible. They won’t allow me-”
Again, Craig slapped the table with a violent look. “Why are you saying it’s impossible before you even
try it? How can you hope to succeed when you’re already diminishing your confidence?”
Jasmine was startled by the slam and teared up. Weakly, she bit her lip aggrievedly.
Annoyed, Craig scowled instead of comforting her. “You’re twenty-one years old already. You are an
adult, so you need to be capable of handling things independently. Consider this an opportunity to train
your adaptability.”
His finger tapped on the table repeatedly. “I don’t care what you need to do to accomplish your mission.
Within two days, you will find a way to meet with Jasmine alone with the bodyguards without anyone
else present in the room.”
“What if I can’t do it?” inquired Jasmine with teary eyes.
“Then you’ll have a first-hand experience of what Charles went through last night.”
Jasmine was astonished by her brother’s cruelty. “Why, Craig? Why are you threatening me with a
heavy punishment over such a small matter? Am I still your favorite sister?”
“Loving you doesn’t mean I’ll spoil you. I’m asking you to complete this mission on your own to train
you,” spat Craig with a grave expression.
“You’ve changed, Craig. You seem so unfamiliar to me now.” Jasmine couldn’t help but feel her
understanding of him was slipping, so much so that she found him ridiculous.
In response, he released a mouthful of smoke. “I didn’t change. It’s just that I’ve spoiled you too much
in the past, and that has prevented you from truly understanding me.”
Staring at him, she was rendered speechless as her body turned cold.
She shook her head and dashed out of the study in tears.
A scowl was still visible on Craig’s face as he thought about how useless his younger siblings were.
Then, he called the captain of Team Nine. “I want you to investigate the secret interrogation room Mr.
Jenson brought Charles to. Also, pay attention to his arrangements for Charles.”
Meanwhile, in the car, the dizzy Charles was given a shot of antibiotics.
As he gradually lifted his heavy eyelids, he noticed his surroundings shaking.
Nico, who was skillfully treating the wound on his arm while sitting next to Charles, glanced at the latter.
“You’re finally awake. I can’t believe you managed to bite my arm until it bled, despite how weak you
are. Were you intentionally taking revenge on me?”
The edges of Charles’ pale lips curved upward. “If I didn’t bite you for real, how can I express my
genuine despair and anger? Craig’s a very sharp man. If I didn’t act earnestly, he would’ve seen
through my
Displeased, Nico snorted. “If I knew, I would’ve slapped you harder.”
Hearing that, Charles chuckled and slowly sat up.
Meanwhile, Cedrick sat opposite him and was focusing on a document.
Guiltily, Charles asked, “How did you know what was happening to me? You came really quick.”
“Jasmine sent a text message to Gwenny asking for help. She wants Gwenny to return the stolen
object in exchange for your safety,” answered Cedrick.
A warm feeling surfaced in Charles’ heart when he heard that. “Jasmine is a very innocent girl. She
doesn’t know anything
If I do return the serum, it means I admit I was the culprit. Not only will the efforts invested in
Gwendolyn’s matter be for naught, but Craig will definitely find a way to kill me. The only way I can
survive is by hiding the truth, no matter the cost. Upon ending his train of thought there, he turned to
Cedrick. “Where’s the serum? How’s the analysis? Craig said it’s something important.”
“No substantial progress yet. Joshua needs time to compare the analysis result with the database.
We’ll hear something from him around noon at the earliest.” Nonchalantly, Cedrick glanced at Charles.
Composedly, he joked, “If I did, I wouldn’t be apprehending you at the Newton residence earlier.”
That’s true. Charles smiled.
A brief silence ensued in the vehicle.
After Nico finished treating his wound, he eyed Charles bloody shirt. “I noticed plenty of wounds were
on your body when I applied medicine to them earlier. How many hits did you take?”
Charles lowered his head and stared at his blood-drenched shirt. “I didn’t count, though I remember
two
Two? Water-soaked cane is incredibly tough. To have snapped two must’ve meant he endured
hundreds of whips. Even I can’t help but think that Craig’s too cruel. Even though he only suspected
Charles was the one who stole the serum, he still abused his own little brother. Despite Nico’s
sympathy for Charles, because of their past grudges, he intentionally jested,
“You’re just as stubborn as the last time I interrogated you, Mr. Newton. It took me a day and a night to
pry the truth out of your mouth.”
That was back when Charles stole the S404 RNA virus.
It was a dark history, which was why Charles immediately frowned.
Without hesitation, he rebuked, “As if you are any better. You didn’t relent even after I whipped you in
the Erihal dungeon for a night.”
“You!”
Both of them tortured each other deeply in the past.
Therefore, the moment they mentioned their past treatment in each other’s hands, the atmosphere in
the car grew tense.
Meanwhile, Cedrick eyed them both. you both are relatively healthy, how an see both of you still hold
grudges against each other. Since
I whip you two in the interrogation room once we reach there?
Then, both of you can recuperate together and mend your relationship. Sounds fair, no?”
Nico paled. “Don’t. I don’t want to reconcile with him. He should be glad I didn’t punch him now seeing
that he’s helping you and Gwendolyn…”
The more he spoke, the smaller his voice
Charles snickered with disdain in his blue eyes.
Once the atmosphere between the duo turned harmonious, Cedrick spoke. “I doubt Craig will stop he
squeezes the truth about the stolen serum out of you. He’ll no doubt send someone to monitor the
investigation progress, so you’ll have to stay in the secret interrogation room for now. I’ve already
asked someone to prepare a bed for you there. It’ll only take a few days at most to wrap up this matter.
As for your injuries, I’ll send an army doctor to treat them.”
