Chapter 60: Test subject– seduced
"Mav, how did your wife get to know about ATOM and the Xu family? Only the Xu family has such a virus in the whole world, so how did she get in contact with it?"
"How long has the virus been in her body?"
"Around eleven years." Matt cautiously looked at Maverick before he continued, "she shouldn’t have been able to survive this long unless she’s being given a suppression pill. She might be a test subject... like Va–"
"Shut up!" The air around Maverick suddenly turned cold and his face changed.
Matt sighed and took a step towards Maverick. He stared him in the eyes and said with caution. "How about we test the treatment on her? If it works, Valen will get well too–"
Maverick turned his back to Matt in silence.
After a long silence in the room, Matt shook his head and continued, "she’s a nobody to you. Why are you caring for her? Rex told me how you two got entangled in this marriage. Since it’s for a year, you should take advantage of the opportunity in front of you. Let’s use her to test out the treatments I came up with–"
"Matt..." silence dominated the room after Maverick spoke. "Take your eyes... off her. Or else, I’ll rip your sister apart."
His words were unhurried. Drawing the words to make Matt understand his meaning which Matt didn’t fail to comprehend.
