Kysonâs Lips turned down in disappointment.
âDo you have nothing else to say to me? Wonât you even ask if I encountered any danger today?
If I was hurt?â
Needless to say, Lucinda didnât give a shit about those things.
The only reason she hadnât shot him herself was because he had something she needed.
âCut the crap and give me the antidote!â
âOkay, okay.
Here you go.
Youâre so cruel to me, you know.
â
Kysonâs Lips were now curled into a teasing smile.
He unzipped his jacket, took out a small cooler, and handed it over.
Lucinda took the box and opened the lid.
Nestled inside it was a vial roughly the size of her little finger, filled with a blue substance.
âWhat kind of drug is it?â

âYouâre a smart woman, Lucinda.
Why donât you check it yourself?â
Without saying another word, Lucinda shut the lid and made to leave.
âOh, Lucinda,â Kyson called out in a singsong voice.
âWhen are you going to fulfill the two other terms of our agreement?â
She sneered at him.
âI need to check the authenticity of this drug first.
This had better be the real deal, otherwiseâ¦â
She drifted off, knowing that he would understand her threat without her having to say it outright.
Kyson didnât seem the slightest bit fazed, though.
He stared at her back and reminded her, âWell, youâd better make your mind up fast.
That medicine can only provide temporary relief, and Iâm the only one who can give you the true antidote!â
If Lucinda took too long to decide and inadvertently cause problems down the line, then the blame would fall entirely on her.
Beneath the dim moonlight, Kyson gazed at Lucindaâs retreating figure with a mischievous grin.
His eyes were filled with obsessive fascination.
Ignoring his words, Lucinda quickened her pace.
She had gotten the medicine and needed to take it to the lab as soon as possible.
It was already late at night.
She was worried that returning home too late would arouse Nathanâs suspicion.
Nathan, having brushed his teeth, climbed into bed and tucked himself in.
