Nathan frowned. “Sevan, why are you doing this?”
Sevan, however, said resolutely, “Master! If it's just for my own treatment, having me in the lab, poked and prodded by scientists all day, I certainly couldn't bear it. If it's for you, I'll do it even if it costs me my life. I've decided to return to the research base to continue my treatment. Please, don't try to persuade me otherwise. You must take care of yourself, too. Until the research team develops the enhanced serum, you absolutely cannot reveal your secret. You mustn't let those from Adrune get dirt on you.”
Seeing Sevan's resolute attitude, Nathan didn't try to persuade him further. He, too, hoped for a positive outcome to the situation. It'll be great if the Cross Research Team can successfully develop an enhanced serum that can help us return to our normal human selves.
At that moment, the police had arrived.
Colin exchanged a few words with the police captain.
The captain was taken aback and promptly apprehended Rat and his hooligans. That very night, an operation was launched to crack down on the criminal activities in that neighborhood.
Nathan, Colin, and Sevan found another place to have a drink.
Around midnight, everyone was slightly tipsy. Only then did they leave the bar, escorting Sevan back to Cross Group's research base.
Francis had been anxiously waiting for a long time in the research base. He felt that Sevan, who had abstained from blood for so long, was a ticking time bomb.
If anything were to happen while Nathan took Sevan out, he would undoubtedly be to blame!
He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Sevan returning with Nathan. “Mr. Cross!”
Nathan calmly said, “I've spoken with Sevan. He has decided to stay here and cooperate with you all in the development of the enhanced serum. I hope you and your team will work hard and live up to everyone's expectations. Once you successfully develop the enhanced serum, I will reward you handsomely.”
Francis quickly replied, “Yes!”
After ending his sentence, he invited Sevan to return to the laboratory room.
To be honest, he was quite scared of being in close proximity to Sevan without any safety measures in place.
