    Sheena’s hand, holding the juice, suddenly froze.


    She shed a nonchnt smile and said, “You’re overthinking. Why would I want to buy time? What’s


    in it for me?”


    Nathaniel did not believe her at all.


    Suddenly, he recalled the argument with Sheena before he passed out when she said, “You promised


    not to deceive me again once I came to Laubabwe, to treat me honestly. Have you lived up to that


    promise?”


    He had not given it much thought in the heat of the moment, but now it seemed like there was a hidden

    meaning behind her words.


    Considering this, Nathaniel narrowed his eyes.


    “Did you already know that Clear is in my hands?”


    Sheena raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise.


    “Clear is in your hands? Weren’t you supposed to keep it in the pce storage?”


    Nathaniel stared at her expression, feeling a growing sense of unease. He immediately reached for his


    phone and tried contacting the guards he had stationed outside Alzer Pce, but no one answered.


    No response meant trouble!


    Next, he called Jamie. “Come back to Alzer Pce immediately and check for any intruders!


    After hanging up, he got dressed and was about to leave when Sheena grabbed his sleeve.


    “Where are you going? We haven’t finished discussing our matters!”


    Brushing off her hand, Nathaniel said, “We can talk about your pregnancyter!”


    With these chilling words, he turned and walked away.


    Sheena inwardly cursed. Nathaniel was exceptionally vignt.


    She tightened her grip on the ring in her hand and hurriedly followed him.


    Meanwhile, Lionel was conducting an extensive search at Alzer Pce.


    The entire ce had been turned upside down, but there was no trace of Clear.


    If Nathaniel had obtained Clear, the pce would be the safest ce.


    Where else could he hide it?


    Though the potion was small, it typically required refrigeration. If left in the cooler box for an extended


    period, the temperature fluctuation would render it ineffective.

    Hence, the only usible option was….


    Lionel looked at Alzer Pce’s small kitchen and meticulously searched again.


    Finally, he found a silver–gray cooler box at the bottom of the refrigerator.


    Opening it up and inspecting it closely, he discovered a transparent serum, a syringe about the


    thickness of a thumb and ten centimeters long.


    Sure enough, it was Clear!


    Lionel was overjoyed and quickly stripped off his suit, wrapping the cooler box. Then, he meticulously


    restored any signs of searching in the room and once again leaped out of the window.


    However, as soon as hended, the cold muzzle pressed against his back. Immediately after, there


    was the crisp sound of a bullet being chambered.


    Five guards beside him aimed their tasers at him.


    The gun against his back slowly moved up, now pressing against his head.


    Jamie’s voice echoed, “Drop what you’re holding, raise your hands, and turn around!”


    Lionel remained motionless, tightened his grip on the cooler box, and instead of letting it go, he hugged


    it to his chest, showing a stubborn determination.


    Jamie sneered. “Even if you manage to escape us, you can’t leave this pce tonight once the rm is


    triggered. What’s in your hands won’t go anywhere, either. If you don’t want a bullet in your head, drop


    it and turn around!”


    Lionel still did not release his hold, slowly turning around.


    Nathaniel had just arrived.


    He could clearly see Lionel’s face under the dim streetlight and was surprised.
