Right after Georgia and Robert entered, Sarah asked in anxiety.
“How is Travis? Is he awake?”
Sarah was handcuffed and chained to prevent her from escaping. She could merely move around in her compartment.
Her face looked rather pale and her eyes looked slightly red.
It seemed she had a tough time here since she was caught. As they expected, what she worried about the most was Travis’s safety.
Georgia sighed faintly and spoke to Sarah.
“He hasn’t woken up yet. The test result shows that he was poisoned by Eric and it affected nerve cells in the brain. Don’t worry. It’s not severe. He will wake up sooner or later.”
Sarah was shedding tears.
“I knew it. Eric is a crazy guy. When he sent me the video, I knew Travis was in a bad situation, so I agreed to cooperate with them to avoid further exacerbation. Even there, still, I couldn’t save him.”
It sounded like Sarah didn’t realize she had made a wrong decision before. In her opinion, Travis’s safety was a matter of prime importance. Georgia couldn’t judger her for it.
Because she couldn’t ask Sarah to put the lives of others above Travis’s. If she declined to work with them, Travis would be in danger and Eric would continue to torture him.
However, what Sarah had done almost harmed the people she loved the most and the people around her. So, she had no choice but to take precautions against Sarah, just like she did.
“Don’t worry. Our research team is working on it, and we will do clinical trials later. Once we make it and confirm that there are few side effects, and it is not harmful to the human body, we will release it. By that time, Travis will get cured really soon.”
“Is that true? Is your team really going to succeed and cure him?”
Sarah asked keenly. Robert came forward and spoke.
“That's certainly true if you want to take our word for it. There is no need for us to lie to you now. We are totally honest with you. But Georgia and I are doubting you now.”
Sarah let out a forced smile and spoke.
“Now I have nothing to hide from you. Yes, I did tell you that I have a scheme with Jayson. That is true, but he told me that he has bribed an insider around you. I don’t know it works or not. He may use me. I tell you this because I hope you can check the people around you. This is the last thing I can do for you."
Georgia and Robert stared appraisingly at her.
This couple actually could not conclude Sarah was telling the truth or not.
“What do you think we should do next to draw Jayson out?”
Finally, Robert got to the point.
