Chapter 379

"I didn't think much about it before either, but after giving it more thought, I realize that since Jayden

wants the secret book collection of ancient medicine in your hands, his identity must be related to the

medical industry. You mentioned that Lab X once approached you for collaboration and they coveted

the reagent you developed, so I thought of that. However, I didn't expect Jayden to have ties with Lab

X. So far, I can't confirm how this matter is related to him though. I have asked Jeremy to make an in-

depth investigation, and he has already sent someone to watch Jayden. Jayden will definitely make the

next move soon. Just wait."

Katherine's delicate gaze was cold, and her rosy lips parted with a hint of sarcasm.

"Yeah, he pursued after me all the way here and he didn't even hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire

mercenaries to chase me down. How could he give up so easily after making such a big fuss?"

She remembered the tracker and grabbed Joaquin's hand suddenly. "What do you think about that

tracker? Why didn't you throw it away before?"

Joaquin's eyebrows moved slightly as he slowly took out the black tracker that was the size of a button

from his pocket, then played with it between his fingers. "I thought he would follow us. I only discovered

this tracker after we arrived, but it doesn't matter now. This just proves Jayden's intentions. I didn't

throw it away, so as not to alert him."

Katherine sorted out her thoughts, then quickly realized what he wanted to do. "Are you trying to lure

him out?"

Joaquin laughed when he heard that. He raised his hand to pinch Katherine's cheek and said, "As

expected of my woman! You're smart."

Katherine pushed his hand away, rubbed her cheeks, and muttered softly, "Any fool can think of this."

She cleared her throat, concealed her momentary embarrassment, and said nonchalantly, "Even

though you were pursued by mercenaries to the hotel, you didn't throw away the tracker. Doesn't that

mean you don't want Jayden to know that you have already noticed his tricks? You brought this tracker

here to avoid alerting others to it. Jayden would only think that we'd arrived at a place with a weak

signal, and he would not think that we had discovered something about him. In this case, he will

continue to act, and you're doing this just to expose him."

Joaquin nodded slightly without denying it. He played with the soft hair that fell on her shoulder and

replied, "Instead of letting him keep scheming us in the dark, we should take precautions out in the

open. It's better to let his identity be completely exposed so that we can know his other identity. We

don't have to waste time dealing with him anymore."

Katherine thought this was reasonable. She pondered for a while and soon came up with an idea. "He

should only know that I have the secret book collection of ancient medicine left by my grandmother and

that I work in Professor Muller's laboratory. Judging from the previous situation, he still doesn't know

that I am behind LW Laboratory. Since he has always been interested in the medicine developed by LW

Laboratory, it is better to use this as bait to lure him out and see what kind of identity he has."

Hearing this, Joaquin considered for a while. "Jayden is very cautious. LW Laboratory has always

rejected Lab X's collaboration requests. Now that we suddenly offer him an olive branch, he will

definitely be suspicious."

"Naturally." Katherine also thought of this, so she didn't intend to do so.

"Of course, I won't contact Lab X directly; I just need to spread the news on the Internet."

"What news?"

"That the D3 Reageant is now for sale."

Jayden had always coveted the D3 Reageant. Not only he, but many people were also full of curiosity

about the D3 Reageant. However, the D3 Reageant was not officially for sale so far, and no one had

any means to obtain it.

"I used it in the early stages of clinical practice. After that, I used it once on your team member, Hawk.

After that, the D3 Reageant never appeared in public again. I think Jayden won't be able to hold back

for a long time. If we post the news of the sale of the D3 Reageant now, even if he is suspicious, he will

not miss this opportunity, and even if he is risking himself, he will definitely try his best to get it."

When Joaquin heard this, his dark eyes shifted a little. "That's true, but how can you be sure that

Jayden will show up in person, and under what name will he show up? What if he sends someone

under him, or pretends to be another person with another identity? What are you going to do then?"

Katherine had thought about this a long time ago. At that moment, there was a sly light in her clear

eyes. "Not just about anyone can buy the D3 Reageant even if they want it. Naturally, we have to

choose our customers vigilantly. In this regard, LW Laboratory has the absolute right to choose. Hence,

whether to sell it or not is up to us. Since Jayden wants to get it, he has to show full sincerity. As for the

reason for selling the D3 Reageant, that's easy. Every laboratory needs a huge amount of money to

conduct long-term research. The economy has been sluggish for the past two years, so selling

reagents and so on is normal. If he is really from Lab X, he will understand this and won't have many

doubts."

Since Katherine had already said so, Joaquin had nothing left to worry about.

"Okay, then do what you want. What can I do to help?" he asked.

Katherine thought for a while, then curled her lips into a smile. "Just relax."

When Joaquin heard this, he immediately smiled. He thereafter lowered his head and shrugged. "Okay,

then I'll listen to you."

…

Soon, the news that LW Laboratory was selling the D3 Reageant in batches appeared on the Internet.

As planned, Jayden got the news immediately. Hansel couldn't help but feel a little worried as he

asked, "President, hasn't LW Laboratory been unwilling to collaborate with us before? I have never

heard of them selling reagents developed by themselves either. Why are they suddenly selling the D3

Reageant now in batches? Is there any deception?"

As for Jayden's reaction, it was as expected by Katherine.

"It's nothing surprising. You haven't heard of it before doesn't mean they didn't sell it privately. It's just

that they didn't allow outsiders to purchase it before. As for the sudden sale of the D3 Reageant in

batches, it's probably done to get funding for the development of new reagents for new projects. A

laboratory like that without government support does not have many funds, and they can only rely on

selling their own reagents to get funds. It is normal for LW Laboratory to do this out of the blue."

Hansel understood this and asked him again, "Then, President, are you planning to buy it?"

On the other side of the phone, Jayden put down the coffee cup in his hand, then replied slowly but

determinedly, "Of course, I want to buy it. How could I miss such a good opportunity?"

Even though he couldn't get the research report of the D3 Reageant, as long as he could obtain the

finished product, he would be able to research it in reverse!
