Chapter 587
Under the dim moonlight, Nathaniel flashed a sinister smile. His deep blue eyes obsessively followed
Sheena’s graceful silhouette as she walked away.
She heard his words but did not look back, moving swiftly since she had already obtained the
antidote. Now, she needed to hurry to the lab.
Since it was already late at night, she was worried that returning too late might raise suspicions from
Elliot.
Elliot finished his bedtime routine and obediently lay down to sleep.
However, he could not sleep.
Staring at the pitch–black night outside the window, his mind was filled with Sheena’s anxious
expressions before she left.
Unable to sleep, he kept his eyes open, staring blankly outside.
It had been two hours, and Sheena had not returned. He felt uneasy, and a hollow feeling settled in his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtchest.
Sitting up, he reached for the phone on the bedside table to call Sheena, wanting to ensure her safety
when Logan’s call came in.
Logan’s reaching out to him at this late hour indicated that it was not a minor issue, so he answered the
phone.
Logan immediately said, “Mr. Jenkins, I apologize for the oversight. I just discovered a new update at
the high–security prison!”
Elliot frowned and asked, “What happened?”
“Just yesterday, Nathaniel was released on bail!”
Elliot’s expression turned incredibly stern, and a murderous intent flickered in his black eyes. “Who
bailed him?”
“It was the National Affairs Bureau’s… Mr. Corey!”
Corey?
Elliot’s fingertips trembled, and before he could hang up the phone, it slipped onto the bed. He felt
suffocated as if his heart was being violently squeezed and torn apart.
On the other end, Logan did not hear him speak and became concerned.
“Mr. Jenkins, please control your emotions! Your health is important, and we can’t afford another
episode. Maybe… there’s a misunderstanding here!”

Elliot remained silent, prompting Logan to continue his persuasion: “Ms. Sheena knows how much you
despise Nathaniel. Perhaps she has her reasons for making this decision. You…”
All that was left for Logan was the busy tone.
Elliot was annoyed by the call, so he ended it.
Suddenly, he recalled the strange expressions Sheena had been displaying lately, but he did not dwell
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmon it each time. Just now, he unmistakably heard a man’s voice on her phone.
Overwhelmed by suspicions, he eventually asked Lionel to investigate Sheena’s recent activities.
Half an hour later, he stared at the information Lionel sent to his phone.
Sheena personally went to pick up Nathaniel after his release yesterday. So, was her late–night outing
tonight also related to meeting Nathaniel?
Sheena emerged from the abandoned chemical factory and hastily headed to the lab. Still in his
slumber, Yosef was forcibly awakened by her to start working.
Sheena handed the blue antidote to Yosef for examination, anxiously waiting outside.
After about ten minutes, Yosef came out.
“This antidote is problem–free. It’s a good drug. The initial test results show that it contains components
that relieve the S404, virus, and the injection doesn’t harm the body.”
Yosef handed her the printed ingredient data sheet.
“This is fantastic, Ms. Lawson. Where did you find such a remedy?”
Sheena, equally surprised, took the sheet but did not answer Yosef’s question.
He continued, “However, the origin of this blue antidote is unknown as I couldn’t find similar data in the
database. I suggest you don’t rush to administer it to Elliot, Leave the drug with me and let me
thoroughly examine it for a few more days.”
