Chapter 764 The Results Are Out
Right after Natasha had fallen asleep, someone''s phone lit up. Keh picked it up, but when he saw
the content, his eyes narrowed. He nced at the sleeping Natasha and got up quietly. Then he
changed into his clothes and left the room.
Spencer was in theb, staring at the test results. A dark look crept onto his face, his eyes

overshadowed by a hint of malice.
At that moment, Keh opened the door and walked in. Noticing the report Spencer was holding,
Keh narrowed his eyes. “The results are out?”
Spencer stared at the papers, keeping his silence, but the look on his face betrayed his thoughts.
Keh approached Spencer and extended his arm. Promptly, Spencer handed the report to him.
Keh took a look, and he frowned. He had no idea what these numbers meant, but judging from the
look on Spencer''s face, things were not looking good. “Just tell me what this means.” Keh looked
at him.
Spencer stared back as well. A moment of hesitationter, he took a deep breath. “That''s the cure, all
right.”
“And?” If this is really as simple as it looks, he''d be jumping around for joy, not brooding like a moody
kid.
“There''s one element in this cure that only Boss has. I have no idea what it is. I can create the cure, but
without that particr element, it''s not going to work,” said Spencer.
“So you''re saying we still only have one dose of this.” A frown creased Keh''s forehead. No wonder
he looked like he just saw something terrible. Keh held the report in silence.
Spencer looked at him. “I have no idea what to do now, so I called you.”
Keh looked at him. “Just feed it to Thalia.”
“I would like to, trust me.” Spencer looked at him. “But Nat is my friend as well. I don''t want any of them
to get hurt.”
There was a hint of surprise and a hint of dilemma in Keh''s eyes. “This is moreplex than I
expected.”
Spencer said nothing. He had hoped for better results, but this was just bad.
Keh inhaled deeply. A few momentster, he looked at Spencer. “Do we have any alternatives?”
“No. We must have that particr element if we want to make another dose of this cure.” Spencer
shook his head.
Keh pursed his lips, his jaw tightening up.
Spencer mmed the table with his fist, and he stared at the ground, ming himself for this failure. “I
thought I was smart enough and that nothing could get in my way. I can''t believe I''m challenged by
something so trivial. That''s years of training wasted.”
Keh stared at the report again. Even though he knew nothing, he still tried his best to get
something out of it. “Not everything happens as we want it to.”
Spencer said nothing in return.
A momentter, Keh tucked the report away and looked at Spencer. “Are you sure this is the
cure?”
Spencer nodded.
Keh narrowed his eyes. It seemed like he had noticed something.
Noticing Keh''s silence, Spencer asked, “Did you find something?”
“Something''s off.”
“How so?”
“He only had this on him because Nat said she would help. But Boss is a paranoid man. He wouldn''t
have given the cure away that easily.”
Spencer frowned as well. “So you''re saying...”
“As I said, he''s a paranoid man. He trusts no one. He might have thought Nat would run away the
moment she got her hands on the cure,” said Keh.
“True...” Spencer narrowed his eyes.
“Then that settles it. Something is off.”
Spencer looked at him, surprised. When he first saw the results, all he could think of was the one he
should save. That, or how they could get their hands on that mystery element.
It was a tough call to make, and he knew Keh would fall into the same dilemma when he was told
of the situation, yet he never thought Keh would assess this matter from another viewpoint.
Honestly, I''m impressed by how calm he can be. “So what are you suspecting?” asked Spencer.
“I''ll need you to reassess this cure.” Keh tossed the report back at Spencer.
A conflicted look shed in Spencer''s eyes. “You don''t trust me?”
“No. I''m just saying that you might find something else if you just look closer.”
“Thalia and Nat are on the line. I''ve looked as closely as I could. I''m sure of it.” Spencer was confident
in his research.
“Again, I cast no aspersions on your professional work.” Keh looked at him. It was just a feeling,
but somehow, he felt that if they did this, they could discover something else.
Spencer stared at him for a long time. Keh won''t do something unnecessary right now. A moment
of mullingter, he took the report. “Very well. I shall reassess the cure.”
“Spencer, I do not doubt you at all. Perhaps nothing''s going to change, but just entertain me for a bit.
Maybe we''lle to a conclusion somewhere down the line,” said Keh.
Spencer paused for a moment, and he looked at Keh. They knew they would have to make a
choice eventually, yet none said it out loud.
“Of course.” Spencer nodded.
Keh rposed himself. “I''ll be waiting.” Having said that, Keh was about to leave.
Suddenly, Spencer blurted, “I might give the cure to Thalia the moment you walk out that door, you
know.”
“Yeah, I know.” Keh stopped in his tracks.
“And you''re going to leave just like that?”
Keh turned to look at him. “You do that, and I''ll be after your head.”
Spencerughed. “Well, that just took a lot of weight off my shoulders.” He didn''t mind dying for Thalia,
and he could at least face Natasha with his head held high.
Keh looked at him and whispered, “But I know you won''t do that.”
Another moment of silence ensued. Spencer looked at him once more. “You''re putting your faith in
me?”
“At least for tonight. That much I can afford.”
“What do you mean?” Spencer questioned.
“Spencer, if I were in your ce, I''d have given the cure to Nat right away. Thalia isn''t my friend at all.
Technically, she''s part of the enemy team. But you''re different. Nat is your friend, so the only one who''s
going to suffer tonight is you, not me.”
