Chapter 122
Frank’s eyes widened, glaring at her as he roared in fury. That’s scientific research! It’s for the benefit of all humanity. Sacrifices are inevitable in research. So what if it gets exposed“”
Lea scoffed. “You label that as research? It’s simply murder! The military has already closed off the underground storage unit, your residence, and your properties in rural and suburban areas. Even your Floater project stands as evidence against you. Every piece of evidence points to you being a serial killer. The police investigation is nearing completion. Families of the victims are becoming informed, and they will press charges against you. With countless lives lost and your history of illegal organ transplants, even if you perished repeatedly, it wouldn’t suffice to settle your debt!”
Confronted with such a murderous villain, she longed to inflict upon him a gruesome demise and serve justice. However, she was restrained by the necessity to abide by the law.
Frank’s eyes widened once more, filled with madness. His already distorted demeanor made his expression savage, now even more unhinged. “No. no.. you cannot ruin all that I have accomplished, the revolutionary medical research of a brilliant mind. It is a crime
Lea’s gaze dripped with contempt and apathy. “You? Worthy? Frank Conor, your pursuit of medical success is merely a thirst for recognition to assert your dominance and to satisfy your vanity. Your enjoyment of slaughter, devoid of empathy, paints you as a serial killer. Your true nature. veiled in darkness, finds its sole sanctuary in hell”
“Come in.” Lea said. Craig Allen, stationed outside the door, pushed it open and entered.
“Miss Lea, what are your orders?” Craig asked.
“Inform the police and the military that the serial killer has been apprehended. Tell them to come and take him away” With that, Lea turned and
left.
“No! No, you can’t Frank suddenly hinged forward, grasping her leg. “Lea Berry, you can’t do this. You can’t destroy my achievements in organ transplantation and neural reconstruction! You even said I’m gifted. You can’t erase my achievements. L. Frank Conor, am a successful doctor. I am successful and outstanding Frank, in a state of panic and fear, pleaded desperately
Craig was taken aback, watching the scene with astonishment. He had been stationed outside and hadn’t heard much of what was said inside. Frank the deranged killer, with his twisted personality and abnormal brain functions, had a nervous system that differed from ordinary people, allowing him to endure extreme pain and fear. That’s why they had been unable to interrogate or coerce him. Graig wondered what Lea had said that had utterly shattered him, reducing him to pleading.
“You don’t want to be remembered as a deranged killer, shocking the world. You want people to recognize your virtues and acknowledge your medical achievements, and that’s not impossible” Lea crouched down, her gaze piercing into his eyes. It all depends on what terms you’re willing
to offer”
Frank trembled as he looked at Lea. She wore a simple white sundress, radiating youthful innocence and beauty. Yer, deep down, she possessed a decisive and ruthless nature, always capable of seizing control in an mutant
“Lea Berry, what do you want to gain from me? Frank was not foolish, now calmed down and discerned her intentions.
“I can arrange for Riverview Hospital to purchase your research achievements in organ transplantation and neural restructuring. We’ll ensure widespread publicity through news, television, the Internet, and traditional and modern media platforms. It will trend globally, ensuring everyone knows, Lea said.

Upon hearing Lea’s words, Frank’s eyes gradually lit up with excitement, his gaze filled with anticipation, and a smile spread across his face. He could already envision himself being the center of attention online, admired, appreciated, and remembered by people everywhere.
Lea grabbed his collar, staring him down. “I want you to turn yourself in. Confess to all the illegal organ transplant surgeries you’ve conducted under Fraley Medical over the years to the police.”
Ten days later, Jeffrey’s funeral was over, Christian managed to find time to visit Ewan in the hospital.
Despite his anger and disappointment, Ewan was still his only son–additionally, the guilt of having neglected him since childhood weighed heavily on him. While Christian appeared distant on the surface, deep down, he still cared greatly about Ewan During this time, Matilda was constantly by his side, handling the funeral arrangements, caring for his health, and assisting with the company’s affairs. Lea accompanied them to visit this
“father” of her.
After reaching an agreement with Frank, who also provided numerous clues, she handed them over to Quicksilver and the hacker accompanying Chris for investigation. Meanwhile, she strategically appeared before Christian and Matilda, masking her actions behind a facade.
Shannon Yancey also participated in the efforts. Whatever Lea wanted to accomplish, Shannon spared no effort to assist. Chris ensured that she was paid according to the standards of their technical staff.
As for Helen, Lea learned from Matilda’s report to Christian that she had gone abroad for a brand endorsement shoot. She would return a week later, just in time for her interview at Conrad University.
Bang! Christian angrily kicked open the door.

“Whoever dares… Ewan’s grumbling voice trailed off as he caught sight of the person at the door, swallowing his words abruptly.
“You’re not dead yet?” Christian entered with a dark expression, scolding angrily. Why don’t you just go and get yourself to death?”
Ewan’s face flushed with embarrassment, and he lowered his head, burying his phone under the covers, not daring to make a sound. He was terrified of his father. During his childhood, the role of a father figure was almost absent, and his understanding of him came mainly from these around him. They told him that Christian was someone who wouldn’t bat an eye at killing on the battlefield. As Ewan grew older, his shortcomings only widened the gap between them. Their relationship was taut
