Chapter 608
The room was an enclosed space.
The moment they entered, Keh noticed the many jars and bottles on the table, as well as
chemical products. It seemed like they were researching something in there.
After sweeping his gaze at his surroundings, he asked, “Where''s the antidote?”
Boss walked over to a white cab and opened its doors. There were dozens of small bottles kept
in there.
A moment of contemtionter, he took out a small bottle.
“This is it.”
Cautious, Keh narrowed his eyes at Boss. “Why?”
“What do you mean?” Boss queried.
“There are so many bottles of drugs in here. How can I be sure that the one you''re giving me is the
antidote?” Keh questioned.
Bossughed. “How am I supposed to prove this? Maybe you should get Natasha toe here so
that she can consume this right in front of you.”
Keh took the bottle from Boss and opened it. He then shook one pill out and said, “Take one.”
Boss took the pill and swallowed it without a word.
However, Boss was a crafty man, so Keh still found it hard to believe his words.
Thus, he decided to take all of the bottles in the cab.
As Boss watched him, hemented, “Not all are antidotes; some are poison. Lethal poison.”
Keh shot him a look. “You have no need to worry about that.”
After keeping the bottles, he continued aiming the gun at Boss'' back. “Time to go.”
Boss glimpsed at him with resignation and walked toward the door per Keh''s order.
However, just as they were at the doorway, Boss turned around and said, “Keh, don''t you want
to know what this hidden room is for?”
Keh narrowed his eyes. Right as he was mulling over Boss'' question, Boss spun around to
shove Keh into the room before lunging toward a wall at the side and hitting a button. The door
promptly started closing.
When Keh saw the door closing, he grabbed a stool close to him and threw it at the closing
gap. The door ended up getting stuck on the stool, and he rushed over to slide out of the room from
the gap below.
Boss, who was outside, never thought that Keh would be able to escape from the room.
Therefore, he quickly turned around, whipped out a gun, and started firing at Keh.
Keh swiftly dodged the bullets and returned fire.
As Boss continued firing the gun, he rushed into the elevator.
Keh went after him at full speed. However, just as he was about to reach Boss, thetter
shed him a malicious grin, and the doors closed.
Without missing a beat, Boss pressed the call button in the elevator, and a voice soon came out
from the speaker.
“Boss.”
Boss uttered in a low voice, “Activate the self-destruction program on the third floor once the
elevator reaches the first floor.”
“Yes, sir!”
Just as those words were out of his mouth, the elevator doors opened with a ding. There were
many people waiting for him outside.
“Boss!” Gavin studied him from head to toe. “How are you? Are you okay?”
“You''re here.”
“I''m sorry I waste,” Gavin told him.
“No, you''re not. The show''s just about to begin!” With that, Boss walked out of the elevator.
The people outside the elevator quickly opened up a path for Boss when they saw him stepping out.
Gavin and the others then quickly followed him out of the building.
They were outside in no time, and Boss was in a spot where he could watch the third floor safely.
Gavin took a step closer to him. “Boss.”
“Hush,” he said, gesturing for the other man to stay quiet as his eyes remained fixed on the third
floor.
“Three. Two. One.”
Boom!
Following the deafening sound of an explosion, the third floor copsed. ck clouds of smoke
floated out of the windows.
Some of Boss'' men had not expected the explosion, and they quickly covered their heads in fright.
When they recollected themselves, they looked up at the third floor and pursed their lips.
“Boss, this is...”
“It''s the self-destruction program,” Boss answered.
A look of realization crossed Gavin''s face.
A glint shed past Boss'' yellow eyes as he stared at the third floor, and his lips curled.
“At the end of the day, Keh, you still died in my hands,” he muttered under his breath, his voice
laced with delight.
Outside, not far from Boss and his men, Dave was anxiously waiting for Keh. The loud
explosion earlier had made his heart leap to his throat, and he was close to jumping into action
when he saw the rising smoke.
Just as he was about to get out of the car, a hand hit the window.
Dave turned around to see Keh outside the car, and he quickly unlocked the doors.
Without wasting a second, Keh climbed into the car.
“Keh, are you okay?” Dave asked, giving him a once-over.
Keh did not answer him immediately as he tilted his head back and panted.
Dave drew his brows together in worry.
A whileter, he responded, “I''m fine.”
Relief suffused Dave when he heard that.
“That frightened the living daylights out of me,” Dave remarked.
However, Kehughed.
“What''s going on?” Dave continued.
Keh turned to look out of the window at the building he was previously at. The ck smoke was
still rising into the azure sky, and as he looked at it, a wave ofplicated feelings washed over
him.
“He activated the self-destruction program to kill me.”
Dave snorted. “He''s going to be furious if he finds out that you''re alive.”
Keh''s eyes remained fixed on the building as he mumbled, “What a pity I didn''t get to kill him.”
“We have plenty of opportunities to kill him, but what''s most important right now is to get the
antidote,” Dave pointed out. “Did you get it?”
Keh nodded. “And I took a lot more.”
Dave knitted his brows together. “They''re all antidotes?”
“I couldn''t trust his words, so I took all the bottles out,” Keh exined.
“But... it''s not as if you can test them out. What if some are poisons?”
“Don''t we have Spencer? We''ll bring these back for him to take a look at them.”
Dave nodded in agreement. “Right, we have Spencer. I almost forgot about him.”
After Keh repositioned himself in the seat, he said, “Let''s go back now.”
Dave inclined his head and drove off.
Keh kept his eyes closed as he rested. When they were halfway there, he suddenly said, “I
want to treat my injuries before going back.”
Dave knew what Keh wanted to do—Keh was afraid that Natasha would be worried if she
were to find out about his injury.
“Do you really think you''ll be able to hide this from her even if you bandage up your injuries?”
“I''ll keep this under wraps for as long as I can,” Keh replied in a low voice, calm andposed
even when he had just escaped a life-and-death situation.

That was the kind of person Keh was. Regardless of how disheveled he was, he would never
be caught in the middle of inelegance.
Dave only gave him a glimpse in response, for there was nothing else he could say. Hence, he
turned the car around and went in a different direction.
“By the way, Boss seems like he''s researching something in the hidden room I was in earlier,”
Keh abruptly started.
“What?”
“I''m not sure about this, but there were a variety of chemical products in his room. My instincts are
telling me that he''s up to something,” Keh gloomily stated.
