Chapter 32. The Super Hearing Headset

Nolan stepped into Matt's lab.
Though Matt had already been injected with the Phoenix Serum, the compound still wasn't perfect. So when it came to surgery, Nolan was careful.
"You're here," Matt said quietly.
He already understood his fate.
He didn't know exactly what Nolan's endgame was, but he knew this much—he wasn't walking out of here until Nolan had dissected every secret from his body.
Nolan pulled on a fresh lab coat, his smile calm. "How does it feel to see the light again?"
The Phoenix Serum's regenerative effect was powerful. It had even reversed the chemical damage that had rendered Matt blind.
"It's... different," Matt admitted.
"Good. Consider it my version of a peace offering."
Nolan pressed a button. His assistants moved into place.
