Chapter 497

“Mr. Nolan, your joke is not funny.” Jared put on a serious front befitting that of the president of Centennial

Healthcare. “Even we can’t find the solution for the poison, let alone you.”

“Jared, do I look like someone who likes to joke around?” Lucas glared at him with cold eyes, his face

expressionless.

Jared panicked a bit under the man’s oppressive aura.

Nevertheless, he quickly composed himself. “Mr. Nolan, if you really have a solution, please come inside then.”

With that, he turned and opened the lab’s door.

The eight researchers were intensively conducting the research for the antidote.

Half an hour later, Jared stared at Lucas sorrowfully. “Are you sure about this, Mr. Nolan?”

“Yes,” Lucas replied coldly.

“But Mr. Nolan, you’re strong. If you use this method, I’m afraid you’ll...”

Jared’s whole mind went blank when he learned what Lucas’ method was earlier.

“Jared, if I don’t save her, do you want me to just helplessly watch her... I can’t do that.” Lucas’ face was impassive

and his gaze showed that he was resolute in his decision. It wasn’t until he mentioned Ashlyn that a hint of softness

flashed across his eyes.

With that, he laid on the research bed as if he were a sculpture.

He stayed unmoved. He did not even blink his eyes.

“But Mr. Nolan...” Jared tried to say something.

“I’ve decided, Jared,” Lucas interrupted. “Stop persuading me. I’ll do anything for Ashlyn. No matter what she

wants, I’ll even give up my life for her. I’ve never begged anyone in my life before, but right now, I’m begging you

for one thing, Jared.”

Jared stared at him.

Before this, his impression of Lucas was that he was a rich and domineering person. Most of the time, Jared was

even enraged by the possessiveness Lucas had towards his boss.

He had never imagined how deep Lucas’ love for her was.

“What is it?”

“Don’t tell Ashlyn that I came here and don’t tell her how the antidote came to be.”

“Mr. Nolan!” Jared’s heart tightened as he stared at the man in disbelief.

Lucas ignored him and ordered the researchers, “Let’s begin.”

Jared did not want to see the inhumane scene, so he turned and left the lab, closing the door heavily.

When he was outside, his body slumped all the way to the floor.

He could hear the sounds of the machines behind the door, as well as the hushed whispers of the researchers’

voices.

However, that man was silent. He never made a sound at all.

Lucas, I respect you for being so brave! I acknowledge that you saved my boss’ life. I will repay the debt!

At this moment, Ashlyn entered the lab and found Jared curled up at the door with a sad expression.

She halted her steps as she was taken aback by the scene. Then she hurried over. “Jared, I know it’s hard to come

up with the solution for the poison. It’s fine if you can’t find the antidote. I’ve lived for twenty-two years and it’s

more than enough for me. My life has been more exciting than the majority of people. You don’t need...”

Jared raised his head to look at the incomparably beautiful woman he had known for years.

She had always been like this. She seemed tough and cold outside, but she was a softy who was more emotional

than anyone else on the inside.

Even now when she had poison coursing through her body that would make her leave the world anytime soon, she

still tried to comfort him, the perfectly healthy man.

“Are you not scared? Are you not going to cry?” Jared squeezed her shoulders as his gaze became increasingly

intense. “Do you know that by saying this, I’ll become sadder?”

Ashlyn avoided eye contact. Of course, I want to live. Who on earth would want to die? It’s just that I’m prepared

for death.
