Chapter 266: May I Ask Who You Are?
"Of course, for the child’s safety, we have specially arranged a VIP hospital room for him, with police protection. I will take you to see him tomorrow," Dean Carter nodded seriously.
Professor Parker looked at Serena Summers and asked, "Serena, we’ve asked you here to inquire about the antidote. After all, this is a matter of life and death, and perhaps many other children are also in danger. Of course, if you have any reservations, we can think of other solutions."
Serena Summers pursed her lips, revealing a hesitation, "Professor Parker, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but the ingredients needed for the antidote are very hard to find, and no alternatives have been discovered thus far, so it’s basically very difficult to replicate another dose."
Serena wasn’t being indifferent to life. But until it was confirmed that the poison in the child was indeed the same as that which Lucas Shaw had encountered, she could not dare to reveal her hand.
Her master had taught her from a young age that the human heart is the most unpredictable, and one should not easily show one’s hand unless absolutely necessary.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know how you died.
There was an indelible sadness in her master’s eyes every time he mentioned this.
He seldom talked about his own past, but Serena could feel the bleakness and pain in his eyes.
And so, she remembered these words through the years.
In fact, there was another reason for her secrecy: the antidote she was able to successfully create this time required blood from Lucas Shaw.
