Betrayal At The Altar

Chapter 659 

Professor Bowes shook his head. “According to the data analysis, the structure of a substance in the potion is quite similar to that of an unknown substance we tested before.”

“Continue your research then,” Lucas said coldly. “Start with the molecular formula.”

“You make it sound so easy!” Professor Bowes picked up the cup and took a sip of the thick coffee. His mustache moved as he spoke. “In order to analyze the two substances before, the entire research and development team spent three whole years. Hundreds of people went through thousands of extraction experiments. How can we get the data so easily as you said? You should put yourself in our shoes.”

Lucas looked up at him, saying, “Tell me, how much money do you want this time?”

Every time Professor Bowes complained about how many difficulties he was facing in his research, he was about to ask for a huge amount of money.

“Well, you know that this kind of test cost a lot. Without money, we can’t get any data. As for the research and development fee… the more, the better.” Professor Bowes chuckled and stretched out a finger. “How about you give us 10 million dollars first?”

Lucas glanced at him and then took out his phone to call the bank. “It’s me. Help me transfer 20 million dollars. Yes, to the same account as the last time.”

Hearing that, Professor Bowes was super pumped.

However, there was a trace of regret amidst his excitement.

If he had known that Lucas would agree so easily, he would have asked more earlier.

Lucas casually spun the phone on the table. “I’ll give yoù enough funds. But you’ll have to figure out what the unknown substances are.”

Professor Bowes poured a cup of coffee for him and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll do our best.”

There were still two substances that they hadn’t had the analytical data yet.

Every time, the extraction experiment ended in failure. Having no choice, they could only use the st*pidest method, which was to screen and compare tens of thousands of herbal medicines.

This method was also the most expensive.

Lucas glanced at him and said in a cold voice, “Report to me at any time if there’s any progress.”

“Got it.” Professor Bowes replied.

Standing on where he was, Professor Bowes watched Lucas leave, the flattering smile on his face fading

away.

He lowered his head and stared at the box that Lucas had just given him, his eyes flickered with an unfathomable light.

Lucas walked out of the research institute and said to his henchman, “Bring all the experts from the blood institute here.”

Previously, they had no idea where to start, and could only conduct experiments on Rachel’s blood. Now that they had the potion as a reference, he was certain that the experts would find out something

soon.

After a long drive, David’s car finally stopped at a dock.

The wind from the sea ruffled Rachel’s long hair. She unwittingly reached out to tuck her it behind her ears. She looked around and asked, “What are we doing here?”

“To complete the ritual, of course,” David said as he took out a soft ribbon from his pocket. “You want me to help you with it?”

As the ribbon fell, everything in front of her was replaced by darkness.

David held her hand and walked forward slowly.

Rachel could not see her destination, but she vaguely smelled a strong floral fragrance.

She had her speculations about where they were going.

However, when the ribbon that blocked her vision was untied and she saw the flowers all over the mountain, her beautiful eyes widened in shock..

The roses of various colors looked especially charming and bright under the sunlight.

Set off by the roses, the dull rocky crags showed a hint of tenderness.

The road in front of Rachel was carpeted with fresh flowers.

Before the shock that lingered in her heart faded away, she was filled with joy, and it took her a long time

to calm down.
