“D-Dr. Rocke?”
“N-No! I-It’s not my fault—”
Roxanne was no longer her calm and collected self as she was overwhelmed by the thought of Sebastian leaving her.
In the end, she made up her mind to deny her responsibilities and started removing the equipment attached to Sabrina, fleeing as soon as she had everything removed.
The nurse was rendered speechless by her supervisor’s response. Things were chaotic for those affiliated with the laboratory as they were afraid of the things awaiting them.
Half an hour later, Sebastian and Sasha, who were made aware of the incident, rushed to the scene.
Sebastian was the first to reach his sister’s side. He started throwing a tantrum in the laboratory and yelled, “Where the hell is Roxanne? Get her over here at once!”
Intimidated by the man’s presence, the nurse stuttered, “D-Dr. Rocke has made her way home, Mr. Hayes. I-It wasn’t her fault either since we were still in the middle of a trial-and-error session. There’s a huge risk associated with the newly developed antidote.”
“Is that the reason she has brought upon my sister’s demise?”
“I-I—”
Sasha knew the nurse was about to burst into tears in front of Sebastian. Thus, she rushed over to her husband’s side to stop him.
“Darling, we need to remain calm in times of emergencies since we can’t do anything to revive the dead. Don’t you think we need to send Sabrina to the hospital?”
Glaring her in the eyes, her husband repeated after her, “Send her to the hospital?”
Sasha felt a chill running down her spine since she had never witnessed the intimidating side of Sebastian.
Standing in front of her husband, she stuttered, “S-Since she has passed on, isn’t it time to send her to the hospital for an autopsy? I-If you wish to hold Roxanne accountable, we need to get the doctors to run some tests on her.”
Get the doctors to conduct an autopsy to testify against Roxanne?
Sebastian couldn’t believe his ears and almost went berserk in front of his wife. He clenched his fists and forced himself to calm down.
In the end, he announced with his eyes closed, “Alright, leave me alone for the time being. I need some time to gather my thoughts.”
“Alright, Darling. You need to stay strong as well.”
Sasha departed seconds after she finished her sentence.
Wendy found out Sasha was no longer in a foul mood as Sasha asked in a sprightly tone the moment she returned, “Wendy, are the children back yet?”
