Sawyer laughed upon hearing Nash's words and said, "You seem surprisingly normal. I guess you got the antidote from Seth? Wait, that's impossible. Seth couldn't have developed a real antidote."
His eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Nash, puzzled. "Haven't you noticed any physical changes?"
Bang!
Nash slammed his hands onto the table, creating a loud noise, and glared at Sawyer with cold, sharp eyes. "Say something useful!"
Sawyer, noticing Nash's bloodshot eyes, smirked. "You didn't get the antidote."
The veins on Nash's arms bulged, and his joints cracked as he clenched his fists in frustration.
Recognizing the tension, Sawyer decided to cooperate. "Pharaoh never shows his true face. Neither Seth nor I have seen it. Those who have probably aren't alive anymore. As for Seth and I turning against each other... that's not really accurate. It was all about our own interests. He wanted a piece of my pie, so I threatened him. When we couldn't come to an agreement, I ended up as a prisoner here."
He spoke nonchalantly.
"Threatened?" Nash stood up, his eyes icy. "What do you know?"
Sawyer tried to stall, smirking as he reached for a glass of water beside him.
Just as he lifted it to his lips, Nash's eyes narrowed with suspicion. He grabbed Sawyer's hand. "Don't move!"
Sawyer looked up at him and said, "This prison is full of your people. The chances of me getting killed here are slim. I've already checked..."
Before he could finish, he felt his throat tighten, his eyes widening in shock as he stared at the glass. The water inside was clear and tasteless but it was enough to make him feel unwell.
"Did you drink it?" Nash noticed the change in his complexion.
Sawyer coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face contorting in pain.
He had not expected this outcome. He had anticipated attempts on his life after being imprisoned and had checked everything meticulously, including the water.

Can you add more chapters per day please...
Don't tell me π€― Is Nina pharaoh's daughter?...
Meanwhile why is Nina playing hard to get? What else does she want from the man? I bet if Nash ever declares to kove the baby unconditionally she might soften up but lady just spill the secret he would be overjoyed!...
I see you increased the number of chapters per day by 2, but please can we have like 20 chapters per day? 7 chapters is too little, the suspense is just crazy...
