Chapter 1068


    Thomas was still in the dark, but he still agreed politely. Finally, after watching Gareth reenter theb,


    he retracted his gaze and returned to the car to wait.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Time was slowly slipping through their fingers. As Elisa and Jeremy did the tests, Gareth watched them


    from the side.


    Though he couldn''t do anything to help, he didn''t dare to shift his gaze from them. He was worried that


    he might spot a hint of disappointment, yet he knew he had to watch on.


    He saw Jeremy heaving a sigh of relief after finishing a series of tests.


    Even though Elisa remained impassive, he could tell a thing or two from her expression.


    He remained silent all the time, not wanting to distract them.


    After three hours, they finished the tests for all the samples brought by Thomas.


    Thomas and the rest of the people involved were waiting for more instructions.


    However, there wasn''t any news from Gareth, making them tense.


    Elisa slowly straightened her back and looked at Gareth, who had been focusing on her.


    "We''re done with these samples."


    "And?" He stared into her eyes.


    After a moment of hesitation, she replied, "They are all very sessful. We could proceed further,


    but…"


    She suddenly didn''t know how to continue her sentence.


    Knowing what was going through her mind, Jeremy voiced her panic and fears.


    "The experiments we are doing now are fine. But they are just samples, after all. In the next step, we


    need to do actual tests on cancer patients. If it''s sessful, everything is perfect. But if it fails, we


    might worsen the disease and shorten their lifespans."


    Elisa pursed her lips and sighed. She couldn''t bring herself to do that.


    If I have cancer, I will test it on myself without hesitation. But… I can''t do this to Grandma. She doesn''t


    have a lot of time left. What if…


    She didn''t dare to finish the thought.


    "Let me do it."


    "You?" She looked at him, notprehending what he meant.


    Is he saying that he will be responsible for finding cancer patients willing to undergo the test?


    Elisa didn''t know what to ask him, but she felt he shouldn''t do that.


    "No!" Jeremy''s firm reply brought her back to her senses.


    He was opposed to the idea from the bottom of his heart.


    Elisa was dumbfounded. Things seemed to be different from what she initially thought.


    She turned to Jeremy, who was staring coldly at Gareth.


    "I can''t let you take this risk, no matter what."


    The confusion thickened in Elisa. "What are you guys talking about?"


    What does that mean? Even if Gareth were to find patients, he would just ask Thomas to do it. He


    doesn''t even need to show up. And I''m sure many people will want to try it out of desperation. What is


    the risk Jeremy refers to?
