The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 726

Joseph's eyes glaze over with nostalgia as he speaks of a golden era long passed. "The three of them were constantly collaborating on revolutionary pharmaceuticals and high-level tech. But then, Garrett Sinclair stumbled onto a nightmare. He discovered a clandestine research facility performing live human experimentation."

Tara's blood runs cold.

"They were extracting the genetic material of naturally gifted individuals, trying to transplant those 'genius genes' into ordinary people. And to ensure the highest success rate, they weren't experimenting on adults. They were using infants."

The sheer depravity of it hangs heavy in the air. To think a person could be genetically rewritten into a genius through brutal surgical intervention was absolute insanity.

"When Garrett brought this discovery to Arthur and Charles, their fates were sealed," Joseph continues grimly. "Once they looked behind the curtain, there was no walking away. Even if they had turned a blind eye, the organization would have come for them eventually. Their exceptional genetics made them prime targets. Arthur was the first casualty. They say he went missing or died, but the truth is, he was taken to become a lab rat. We never found a body."

For years, Joseph and Katie—Danny's mother—searched relentlessly for Arthur, hunting for the true location of Sector 01. But ever since the day Tara was rescued from that hellhole, the trail went ice cold. Katie still refuses to believe her husband is dead, stubbornly holding out hope until she sees a body.

"Garrett died shortly after," Joseph adds, his voice tight. "He started investigating his own brother, Gregory, suspecting an inside job. Before he could expose the truth, he and his wife died in a highly suspicious 'accident.'"
