NovelEnglishThe next day, a posse of doctors filed into Agent A's hospital room.
"Mr. Raines, we're moving you to a premier convalescent hassociated with the BioResearch lab. It'll allow the experts to
monitor your condition closely and expedite the development of an antidote."
Agent A had a sinking feeling that it was either Fredric or Leopold trying to put him under house arrest, severing his ties with the
outside world.
"I'm staying put, not going anywhere." Agent A insisted.
"Mr. Raines, it's for your good, please cooperate."
Without further ado, the doctors hoisted him onto a gurney.
He roared in fury, "Letgo, | ain't going nowhere! I'm the young master of the Stirling family. You can't do this to me."
Just then, Lisbeth rushed in, acting clueless, and blocked the gurney, "Where are you taking my husband?"

"Lady Lisbeth, no need to worry. Mr. Raines is just being transferred to a facility that's closer to the lab, allowing the doctors to
develop an antidote more swiftly."
"I'm going with him," Lisbeth gripped Agent A's arm firmly.
"Of course," nodded the doctor. Then they left the hospital and boarded an ambulance.
Lisbeth patted Agent A's shoulder, "Don't worry, I'll be by your side the whole tand won't let anyone touch you."
Agent A had no choice but to trust Lisbeth. She needed her monthly dose of antibiotics to survive, so he doubted she'd dare betray
him.
Upon arriving at the secret sanatorium, Agent A found himself under strict surveillance. Contacting the outside world beca
challenge. He could only rely on Lisbeth to relay messages.
He was livid.
"I bet they don't want to save me. They just want to lockup and letrot. Those ungrateful curs, no sense of brotherhood.
Son the bitch!"
Lisbeth found his words both amusing and ironic.
If the boss cared about brotherhood, he wouldn't have locked up Raines as a hostage, nor would he have schemed to kill his sibling
and usurp the throne.
"Now, we don't even know if they're the ones who poisoned you," Lisbeth said. "The randomness all seems too far-fetched. If you
hadn't asked for that sugar-free hot chocolate, Leopold could have been the one drinking it. Who in the Stirling family knows you
prefer sugar-free? Raines is known for his sweet tooth, always drinking the sugary kind."
Agent A glared at her, "Idiot, just because they say the hot chocolate was poisoned, you believe it? The poison could have been in
anything else."
"Did you eat or drink anything different from everyone else afterward?" Lisbeth inquired.
He snorted, "The poison could have been on my cutlery for all we know. There are a hundred ways to poison someone. Who says it

Agent A was well-versed in the use of poisons for assassinations, so he knew the methods all too well.
Lisbeth probed, feigning curiosity, "Do you know Geoffrey? Does he have any ties to our organization?"
Agent A replied, "I don't know him. What connection could he have with us?"
"Well, he's known for his skill with poisons, and he's tried to poison Leopold and Aurelia several times. | thought he might be one of
us."
Agent A glowered at her, "Why all the nonsense? | said it's not him and that's final. Just follow my orders and stop questioning me."
Lisbeth shrugged, "Fine, I'll drop it. But you're the one who's poisoned. If we get it wrong and can't get the antidote, you're the one
who's screwed."
Agent A was on the verge of passing out from frustration. "Are you looking to rebel? Do you have a death wish? Be careful or I'll cut
off your antibiotics."
Lisbeth nonchalantly replied, "You won't do that. Right now, I'm the only one who can help you. If | die, you're toast too."
