A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 421

During the long wait, Quintis offered a compensation of five thousand dollars to each student whose blood had been collected. It was under the guise of nutritional support.

On the eve of the results announcement, Emily and Quintis made a special trip back to Tarthy City, visiting the most renowned local church to pray devoutly for divine favor. They even donated a staggering 100 million dollars as an offering, hoping to secure the gods' blessings.

They hoped that the gods would intervene, that their dream would come true, and that Emily would once again experience the joy of being reunited with her son.

The next morning, the couple boarded a private jet and hurried back to Alnewgo. The moment they landed, they rushed straight to the testing center.

Despite Emily's efforts to remain composed, Quintis could sense her inner turmoil from her restless movements and the slight tremor in her body.

Emily fantasized about how joyful life would be if she really found her son, but at the same time, she couldn't shake the fear of what would happen if it all turned out to be another dead end.

Quintis gently patted Emily's back, trying to soothe her. But this time, his usual methods of comfort seemed to fall short.

With a trembling voice, Emily asked, "After all these years, do you think we'll ever find our son?"

Quintis answered firmly, "We will."

Even though he knew the odds were slim, he couldn't bear to crush her hope now.

A flicker of joy crossed Emily's face, but it quickly faded. "I know the chances are really really slim."
